Appearance[]
(This is obviously going to be expanded on later)
The upper half of his body is clad in cobbled gemstones, red-purple in color. The lower half, including parts of the arms, consists of a pure milky-white porcelain-like substance.
Abilities and Equipment[]
- Reflektor can travel into mirrors, as well as travel to and fro mirrors.
- While in the "mirror world", Reflektor can influence the outside world by moving things around.
- Reflektor can "screenshot" a reflection in time, capturing it to be able to be projected later. Such screenshots are saved in his cobbled crystals (see Reflektor).
Weaknesses[]
- Reflektor can only be presented in one uninterrupted surface at a time- for example, if you were to break the mirror he was in into a myriad of smaller shattered mirrors, he would be forced to enter one of those smaller ones.
- While traveling between mirrors, Reflektor manifests as pure light, rendering him entirely vulnerable. He cannot abort a "mirror travel", either.
- If Reflektor's current inhabited mirror is entirely destroyed, Reflektor will be forced to revert.
- Once Reflektor enters a mirror, he cannot leave or he will revert to Sol.
- Reflektor's screenshots only work if they are projected where they were taken, unlike Longview.

Trivia[]
- For a brief time, Reflektor was known as Black Mirror. Black Mirror was later used as the name of another alien ;-).
- Reflektor was based on Kamen Rider Ryuki's Mirror World as well as J. Geil's Stand from Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, the Hanged Man.
- Reflektor's "screen capture" ability is based off of how DNA's structure was discovered:
- From the official nobel prize website: "When you shine X-rays on any kind of crystal – and some biological molecules, such as DNA, can form crystals if treated in certain ways – the invisible rays bounce off the sample. The rays then create complex patterns on photographic film. By looking at the patterns, it is possible to figure out important clues about the structures that make up the crystal."
- I'm still working the kinks in his abilities out, okay? If it seems rushed, that's because it is.
- Reflektor's species, Micarians, are named after the mineral mica, which gives most rocks their shine and has near perfect basal cleavage.
