History

Origins

Pre-Zero Hour

Before the Titanians were called the Titanians, there were the Lanothians. The Lanothians were a race of telepaths from Lanothia, with only a city size population left, that was perserved, shrunken, and captured by Brainiac. While Mon-El was relocating bottled cities from Brainiac's ship, he landed on a moon of Saturan, Titan, for their new home for its limited breathable atomosphere. While he landed with the bottle city of Saturn, Jemm, Son of Saturn did battle with Mon-El, thinking he was Kryptonian, and having a distrust for them after stealing icecaps from his homeworld.

It wasn't until Mon-El explained himself, and the telepathic Lanothians pledging their loyality and changing their entire races name that Jemm allowed them a home on his moon.[1]

By the 30th century in the Pre-Zero Hour, the Titanians had established what is reputed to be the most efficient system of democratic government in the solar system. A large portion of this is due to the fact that the Titans' natural affinity towards telepathy make corruption in government a virtual impossibility.

Post-Zero Hour

The alien race known as the Dominators began experimenting with humanoid beings in the hopes of genetically enhancing them with various super-powers. Their experiments eventually culminated in a galactic Invasion of the planet, Earth. A Daxamite named Lar Gand became the custodian of these metahuman experiments and used them to seed various planets and moons throughout the galaxy.[2] It is believed by many that Titan was one of the seed colonies established by Lar Gand. These colonists eventually developed acute psionic talents, including telepathy and mental manipulation.
