As a Oan Guardian of The Universe, Ganthet is indestructible and immortal and controls the green energy that powers all Green Lantern power rings.

Background:
Ganthet is a member of the Guardians of the Universe, a race of diminutive, blue-skinned beings, who gathered together sentients from across the universe, known as the Green Lantern Corps, to combat evil. The Corps served the Guardians for uncounted millennia.

When Hal Jordan absorbed the Main Power Battery of Oa, Ganthet became the last Guardian, charged with bestowing the last power ring.

He gave it to freelance artist Kyle Rayner but later reneged, claiming he was unworthy. When Hal Jordan returned, intent on reestablishing himself as Green Lantern, Ganthet gathered Earth's mightiest heroes to battle him. When they failed, Ganthet offered himself to Jordan, who then drew Ganthet's essence inside himself.

On a recent trip to the 30th century, Kyle Rayner was incapacitated. Ganthet reappeared and gave the ring for a short time to Cary Wren, Kyle's descendant.

Now the sole adult occupant of a renewed planet Oa, Ganthet is responsible for raising a new generation of Guardians of the Universe to adulthood.
