Biography
Trom
Jan's father Tarn Arrah was the leader of Trom, which had been discovered by RJ Brande some time ago. Tarn was the creator of tarnium, the element which was needed to create Stargates. Only Tarn and Jan were adept enough to create this element.
Tarn and his wife Garra were negotiating with the United Planets for membership when a squad of White Triangle Daxamites came and used their heat vision to destroy Trom. They had feared that the the transmutation powers of the people of Trom would allow the United Planets to become unbeatable.
Luckily, Jan and RJ Brande had managed to get off-planet in time, though they could do little else but watch helplessly while Trom was destroyed.

Time blurs
In the Great Rift Disaster, Element Lad, Kid Quantum and Drake Burroghs were tasked with sealing the Rift itself. They were successful, but Drake's containment suit was destroyed and Jan, KQ2, and half the Outpost and those inside it were pulled into the Rift.
Thrown outside the material universe, Jan sealed his teammates in pure Green Tromium to protect them. He spent months calculating, longhand as the computers and clocks of the Outpost had ceased to function, how to get them back into the universe proper. Eventually, he succeeded. After a fashion.
He became separated as they crossed the barrier, and while they emerged displaced only in space from their origin point, thrown into a "Second Galaxy", he landed in the same place... billions of years earlier.
Transmutating himself into Green Tromium, he drifted for a long time. Eventually, he landed on a planet, and there, disappointed at the lack of life, began to "help it along"...

Powers and abilites
Element Lad could alter the atomic structure of matter. After his transformation by Mordru, he could also transform himself into other substances, and found it easier to "transmute" other substances by doing so.
After several billion years of practice, as the Progenitor, he could manipulate matter incredibly finely and on huge scales.
