biography Wally comes from Earth-49, an undocumented Earth that all that is know about it by those on Earth-1 that study the multiverse is that is it mysteriously protected by some power that doesn’t allow the Earth to be breached. Wally doesn’t know any of this.

Earth-49 is actually very similar to the Earth in the Young Justice cartoon series with influences from the comics (like having the original Titans team line-up and he never dated Artemis but did date Linda Park for a bit) and other cartoon movie sources.

past: Born on the 11th of November, 1995, in Blue Valley, Nebraska to Ruldoph and Mary West. Wally’s relationship with his parents wasn’t perfect. He’d often stay with his Aunt Iris and Uncle Barry in Central City - who he says are the ones that really raised him.

At ten, Wally found out Barry was the Flash and decided to recreate the experiment that gave Barry powers. It worked and Wally, after a bit of training, then went on to become the Flash’s sidekick, Kid Flash. He moved in with Iris and Barry permanently.

While Barry and he generally saved the day on their own, Wally also became acquainted with other members of the Justice League. Through the other Justice League members, Wally met other sidekicks. He was pleased to meet other heroes his own age and became friends with a few of them especially Batman’s sidekick, Robin, who was the first person he ever considered as his best friend despite the fact Robin refused to tell him his real name.

At fifteen, Wally and some other heroes’ sidekicks were invited to form a team of their own by the Justice League. Robin was their leader, then you had Speedy (Roy Harper), Aqualad (Garth), Wonder Girl (Donna Troy), Lilith (Lilith Clay) and of course, Kid Flash (Wally). The team named themselves the Teen Titans and went on missions that didn’t necessarily require the big guns of the Justice League getting involved with. They grew and shrank in number over the years but one thing remain true for Wally, he loved his friends and would do absolutely anything for them.

After graduating high school, Wally decided he wanted to go to college but that meant he needed to hang up his running shoes for a bit cause he couldn’t be focused on both. After discussing it with the other Titans, especially Dick - who eventually revealed his secret identity to him - Wally dropped back to being a reserve member and went off to study.

Wally had almost graduated when he got the call that his friends needed him. He made the decision to skip his final exams to go to the Arctic and help the other Titans. Wally wasn’t going to lie, beating the baddies was a lot more fun than a chemistry exam. Plus, he friends needed him and Wally’s loyalty wouldn’t allow him to leave them.

The Titans won the battle in the Arctic, but when the dust had settled there was no celebration. Wally West had been lost.

present: Wally wasn’t technically lost. He knew he was in the Speed Force but the problem was he had no way of getting home. Unlike his Uncle who had been trapped in the Speed Force before, Wally lacked a conduit to anchor him and bring him home so he was stuck floating adrift, eventually believing he would just become one with the Force like a Jedi or something.

Then there was a disturbance, like a sudden storm rolling through. Wally took his chance and pushed at the storm, grabbing onto it in the hopes it would get him home. He landed near Central City but his victory dance was short lived as he came to realize that three years had passed since his disappearance.

His heart was dealt another blow when he went to what he believed to be the home of his Aunt and Uncle and found a stranger there. After a small conversation with the home owner, Wally learnt he wasn’t even on his Earth anymore.

positive traits: Loyal and reliable - Wally will always come when a friend calls. He throws everything into his friendships (which can be a negative if you betray him because it is heartbreaking for him). He is funny - at least he thinks he is - and would rather have those around him smiling.

negative traits: He tends to keep the negative to himself and therefore it gets bottled up and will eventually boil over in an explosion. He is hot-headed and has a mean temper once he gets going. Wally also takes a lot of blame onto himself, often feeling responsible for mistakes and believing he is the catalyst of them.

para sample:

The air crackled and sparks flew over the ground in a dizzying dance as the remnants of the freak lightning storm dissipated. Wally West always liked to make an entrance and breaking free of the Speed Force and arriving back on solid earth in a crazy ass lightning storm was probably his finest entrance to date. Light show and theatrics aside, his arrival also signified something very important - he wasn’t dead!

Wally had no idea how long he had been in the Speed Force, time had a different way of moving there. He could have been gone a minute. He could have been gone years. He hoped it wasn’t the latter - the idea that everyone had mourned him after coming to the conclusion he wasn’t coming back broke his heart. Surely it couldn’t have been years, though.

Taking in his surroundings, Wally spotted a sign that identified the place as a national park just outside of Central City. He was closer to home than he thought. Looking closer at the sign - which also was a notice board of events for those venturing into the national park - Wally spotted the date on one of the announcements. 2019.

2019! That was three years! His heart sank but he was determined to get back to his family and friends and make up for lost time. He could do that now. He was back. His body filled with hope of making things right.

Wally raced into the city. He felt faster than before - maybe a Speed Force side effect - but he couldn’t worry about that now. Stopping in a dead end street, Wally then took to a normal pace and went to the address he knew to be that of his Aunt Iris and Uncle Barry - at least he hoped they still lived there. Knocking on the door, Wally speedy thoughts went over a speech in his head - what did one say when they have been gone for three years?

The door opened and an older man Wally didn’t recognize was standing there, a curious look on his face at who Wally was and why was this stranger on his doorstep. “Er... I was wondering if Iris West and Barry Allen still lived here. I see they don’t. Sorry to bother you.” Wally spoke at such a rapid fire pace that many would struggle to keep up before he turned to leave. He stopped just on the bottom step when the man at the door told him to wait.

“Who are you and what do you want with my daughter and son?”

Wally’s eyes boggled comically for a second and he spun around. This guy definitely wasn’t his grandfather. “I... er...” he stammered, his usually fast paced mind screeching to a halt like rubber tires on asphalt when the brakes were slammed. “I think I’m on the wrong Earth.”
