Potentially: Superman
Age:
20
Sex:
Male
Appearance:
Kieran may not be a biological Kent but that doesn't he mean he doesn't look good like one. Some even say that he's the more attractive brother. But it really depends on who you ask. He has an impressive athletic build and stands at exactly 6'0 while weighing approximately 210 lbs. He has the trademark Kryptonian blue eyes. He doesn't have a distinct look when it comes to his civilian clothes. He just wears what he wants to wear but he has a sense of fashion thanks to his adoptive mother, Lois.
Ever since joining the Teen Titans with he's worn this but he feels it might be time for a costume change.

Powers/Skills:
Kieran has all the abilities granted to a Kryptonian his age by the yellow solar energy of the Earth's sun. He hasn't the same amount of exposure to it as Clark or even Jon, but he's had around the same amount absorbed as Kara. His suit as Seraph was made to make up for the years without the sun.
Kieran is considered a genius by Earth standards but would be just above average by Kryptonian standards. He can learn and retain information quickly and put it to use just as fast. He has a great tactical mind but not nearly on the same level as someone in the Batfamily.
He didn't train personally with Batman like his brother but he did receive combat training while he was with the Teen Titans. He learned to work well with others and learned how to be someone that could lead others. He carried the "S" on his chest and it came with a lot of responsibilities.
He also has muscle memory of military style techniques that he doesn't recall ever learning.

Backstory:
Up until twelve years old Kor lived in the a section of the Phantom Zone where time still flowed. He was wandering around the Zone when he was rescued from Superman after he was sucked into the zone. He doesn't recall anything before that moment. He doesn't even know who his actual parents are. All that he remembered was his first name, Kor. He learned that life on Earth would be great for him. He was raised in Metropolis with his new family. The world's greatest superhero, his wife, and his son. He became one of them. An El and a Kent.
He immediately decided to give back to this world that gave him so much. Whereas Jon didn't immediately step into the role of hero, Kieran was different. He knew that's what he wanted to do. He was young and his powers were still new to him so of course Clark was against him doing so. With some convincing from Kara he was able to go off and train with her for a year in how to use his powers. Halfway through his training he was given his suit that helped him control his power output while also allowing him to absorb more solar energy to makeup for the twelve years of lost time.
After the year was up Kieran returned with some pretty good control over his powers. This time his father couldn't tell him no. Well, he could, but he didn't. Kieran took on the name Seraph while helping Superman in a supportive role. Meanwhile a group of sidekicks were in a way stepping out of their mentors' shadows by forming their own team taking inspiration from the Justice League. The team was revealed to both him and the League when they succeeded in a mission that proved difficult and threatening for them. He was disappointed and almost offended that he wasn't originally asked to join the team, but he also understood why. Robin, who led the team, didn't really know him like he knew his older brother Jon. That and he most likely didn't want to bring attention of the team to the League. That didn't work out so well for him.
While Batman was ready to shut down the whole operation Superman sought out compromise. He decided that Kieran should join the team as a liaison between the two teams. After reluctance Seraph joined the Teen Titans, but he found it hard to find acceptance among the team. For the most part they saw him as the younger babysitter who was ready to run to the League whenever they did something wrong. Kieran wasn't like that and they soon realized he was one of them. He even found that he and Robin were more similar than they initially realized. They were both adopted sons that had two giant shadows over them. The team was finally truly accepted by the Justice League when they saved them and helped save the world from alien invasion.
While with the Titans Seraph found a place of his own and he was happy until they disbanded a few years later. The team over the years had good and interesting members including the son of Lex Luthor. He was sad to see it all go. The disbandment of the team didn't last too long. They were called to action once again when another teen with daddy issues needed their help. He didn't hesitate in rejoining. While working with Superman he felt part of him was missing. He found that missing piece whenever he was with the team. The new team that consisted of Robin, Seraph, Kid Flash, Wonder Girl, Raven, Terra, and Beast Boy fought off Raven's father and solidified themselves as heroes; New Titans. One day it seemed that batman had, had it and told Dick that he couldn't call himself Robin if he didn't want to be his partner. The team helped him through this time and then Dick took a leave of absence after handing the position of leader over to Kieran.
Kieran's time as leader was a hard one. In the field his leadership was great. He had the right tactics and knew how to utilize everyone's abilities efficiently. The problem was that he wasn't as personal with the members of the team. Despite his time on Earth and interacting with others he still had problems truly connecting with some people because of the twelve years he lost. He felt that was his biggest problem and hoped that he could one day fix it. Dick later returned to the team as Nightwing and became leader once again. Kieran recalled the stories of the original Nightwing that really pushed him to decide that he wanted to be a hero. It was one of the first stories that Clark told him when he arrived on Earth. Kieran knew the name was never something he wanted. It didn't even fit with the "S".
The Wildebeest Society incident was the hardest time for the Titans. They lost members and gained some as well. After it was all said and done it was about time for Kieran to leave the team.
After graduating from High School, he left the team and became more of a reserve member so that he could attend College with his older brother. He didn't intend to follow the path of journalism like Jon but he figured that college would be the best place to figure out what he wanted to do as a civilian while still also being a hero. One day during his time in College he answered the call and helped out Nightwing along with other Titans in freeing Blüdhaven from Deathstroke's control.
ieran would have been going into his second year when the Big Seven disappeared. He was wary of this day and it's been a month since then. The world needs a Superman and although he is arguably the most qualified would he be ready to take on that responsibility? He just might have to be. And so along with some others he answered the call to become a member of the Justice League.

Motivation for joining the League?:
He owes it to his father and to this world. Even though he wasn't Superman's actual son he brought him in and treated him like his own. The same for this planet. He loves it and would do anything to protect it.
What do you bring to the League?:
Full Kryptonian badassery and a potential leader.
Notes
Suffers from amnesia before coming to Earth
He personally believes that he should be the one that becomes Superman but despite his confidence is unsure of himself
Named himself Seraph for two reasons. All the good Super names were taken and he didn't want to have a god or Messiah complex so anything like Savior or anything like that was out of the question. He was fine with being an angel that looks over his home.
