History
Caene, or "Pegusus Man" as the people of earth call him, came from a planet called Pegasi 100,000 lightyears away. He was hoping to colonize what the Pegasi believed was an uninhabited planet. They were very wrong. With little knowledge of the humans' territorial nature, he flew right into the atmosphere without having the slightest clue what he was getting into. Pegasus Man was arrested by the Praetorian Police Force in conjunction with the Longbow Patrol, who believed Caene was another Rikti invader.
After spending some time convincing the PPD that he was not an invader (or at least, that he would not tear them limb from limb), he was given the opportunity to work with the PPD to eliminate the resistance. Caene did not ever agree to the practices of the PPD, which reminded him of the enslavement of his own people during a planetary war. He immediately helped the resistance. However, they could not be trusted either: the resistance betrayed Caene, and so he was at war with both. With nobody to trust, Caene became deeply resentful of the humans until he met two succubi known only as "the Desire Sisters": Blazing Desire and Darkest Desire. Sympathizing with his hate for humans, they convinced him that humans were easily manipulated, and that the PPD were no different. Seeing that Earth was perhaps not much different from his own planet, it became a difficult decision for Pegusus Man to choose whether to help or hinder the humans. After meeting many of them, he finally had a change of heart and decided to trust the humans.
So far, Caene has had no shortage of fun in Paragon City. A large-scale Rikti invasion on Atlas Park helped him see first-hand that the humans were capable of working together. Hundreds of heroes worked together to stop the Rikti from preying on innocent newcomer superheroes, and Pegasus Man himself joined the battle. It was a glorious occasion.
Personality
Pegasus Man has a strange obsession with war; it seems to be the only past-time of his people. When they are not fighting off Dragons, Trolls or Vampires, the Pegasi are a very mystical race, often engaging in behaviours and practices that one would find odd, if not insulting, on earth. Pegasus Man often refers to things in simple, concrete terms when more detail would be necessary. However, he is deeply philosophical, often asking insightful questions about mundane tasks.
Pegasus Man does not wear clothes. He once said, "Why hide the gift that our Gods have given us?"
Relationships with Humans
Pegasus Man refers to everyone he meets as "human". When he discerns that they are not human, he will call them the closest thing to their race. When Pegasus Man is given the name of the person, he will call them by-name, adding the suffix of their race (ie Steve-human). Sometimes, when Pegasus Man enjoys the company of another, he will give them an adjective-based nickname. For example, he calls a close human friend of his "funny human" because of his jokes. Caene once said that the reason he does this is to preserve brainpower for "more complicated tasks".
The Pegasi do not have recreational sex, as they see sex only in terms of procreation (baby-making). However, Pegasus Man seems to have a strange desire to have sex despite this taboo.

Weaknesses

- Pegasus Man will be downed easily from up close. From far away, however, he is threatening.
- Pegasus Man tires himself easily from battle. He is not used to being in fights lasting for more than about half an hour.
- Pegasus Man is not a very fast traveler. If he is overwhelmed, he will not be able to run away. He is the last to attend any team gathering.
- Pegasus Man cannot refuse a cup of tea. Ever.
