Not many are aware of the true origin of Gwendolyn Pendragon also known as Gwen Snow, so I am here to clarify a few things. First off, I am not a just a panda bear that sits on Gwens shoulder for appearance sake; I am an energy entity of my former self. I am the power behind Gwens amazing strength and resilience. I shall begin from the beginning, which seems to be the best place.

It was a warm and glorious day on the planet I used to call home, Nogard…ah what a beautiful place that was. It was a small planet, nothing compared to Earth. The most glorious place you have ever seen.

Princess Ophelia found me by the Crystal Lake, I was relaxing after a long day of riding, “Rembert it is important that you stop your day dreaming and listen to me” at that I sat up and looked at her. This creature, this once radiant young woman looked beyond her years in age, I immediately was worried and ran to her side “what is it my princess, my glorious one?” She rested her head on my shoulder as only a lover would “ you must take Gwendolyn away from here, she is in grave danger. You must protect her.” I took her by the shoulders and saw the troubled future in her smoky blue eyes
“I will not abandon your side, please Ophelia tell me what troubles you, and we shall take care of this together”. She sadly turned from me, her flaxen hair falling over her bronzed skin “You must go” she said, “for the sake of all that is mystical, you must protect the child, she is our only possibility of a future”

Before I go on, I must explain to you that Gwendolyn is not of this world or any other, she is a life form only to protect the mystic of Nogard. However she must be raised and protected like a child to keep this mystic safe from evil and destruction. Princess Ophelia was to be the protector, the guardian of Gwendolyn, but now she is hurting within due to a spell that was cast upon her to find the child. A horrible, sprite of a woman known as Yara of Elkin has cast a spell of age upon her. So you understand, our world has become such a peaceful place that time is irrelevant none know how old the world is or what age we all are, time is not a reality. We live in harmony from moment to moment. However there is always evil, or the universe would not be complete, as there is the Mystic there is also Yara.

After much discussion it was decided that I should take the child Gwendolyn to another world and live as her guardian, in order to protect her and her tie to this world my identity was changed to that of an animal, a polar bear. A polar bear is a sign of purity and clarity, which Princess Ophelia decided would be the best choice. A family was found thru an alliance of worlds in the region known as the Arctic in the Americas of Earth.

“I will go and do this for you my love, but what will become of you” I asked Ophelia. “You will see me again, I will not parish here darling” she reached for me and held me close to her, it was the last contact I had with my lover, she reached up to the sky asking the keepers of the Mystic to grant me the power to keep Gwen from harms way. “Good bye Rembert, you are my everything be safe” were the last words I heard her say as I was suddenly pulled from her in a blazing white light…I saw the child and reached for her to hold her close during the transport.

It has now been 15 earth years; Gwen is 18 and entering college. She wants to study the magic controlling of ice and snow thru Coldelesa, who is actually my love Princess Ophelia. Yes, a lot has happened, but so much detail, I will sum it up.

After the transport we were located with a family in the Alaska region of North America, I was to be the “pet” of Gwen while The Pendragons raised her as their own, so as not to bring any attention to the situation. Gwen blossomed as a young girl to a sharp and intelligent young woman. She was very smart and excelled at all she did, she was cheerleader in her high school, and loved to make people laugh. She has completely assimilated to the ways of the Earthlings. There is little she remembers from Nogard, which I assume is best. I am truly her pet, she loves me so, as I her. I feel as a father would to his child. She takes me everywhere she goes, even when not prompted by the Pendragons. It is important that I am always with her. I am only vocal with her in dream where I am the man Rembert, she seems to remember me, however when she awakens I am still “killer”.

Five years ago Ophelia contacted me she has healed the damage that Yara had inflicted upon her and has relocated to Paragon City to aid in the war against the Circle of Thorns, which are actually beings controlled by Yara, to venture out and find the vessel holding the Mystic. Ophelia has taken the identity of Coldelesa and joined forces with several other heroes to defeat them and to keep them from leaving Paragon City. We have met only in our dreams; Ophelia is a Goddess after all and can come to me while I sleep. In my dreams we are back in Nogard. Those are wonderful times where we walk along the banks of Crystal Lake and discuss the life we feel Gwen should have, both wishing we could have given the life we lived to her and be her parents together. We agreed that Gwen most go to college and experience the life as an Earthling, hoping this would make her a strong protector of the Mystic.

Ophelia left Paragon to become a professor at the University of Texas in the Magic division, which is where Gwen would be attending school. This way we could make sure all was well, and we could be closer. Our powers together would protect Gwen in case the need arose. Gwendolyn became a very strong and powerful woman, she was sent to Paragon City to follow in Coldelesas life choices. I, of course, am now and forever a permanent fixture to Gwendolyn she must not leave with out me, my powers and hers combined make her a powerful being and an asset to the people of Paragon City.

The rest as they say is History….
