Tor-An was a notorious Kryptonian war criminal, and a follower of General Zod on the Sword of Rao.
Biography
Born on the planet Krypton Tor-An grew to become a fierce soldier in the Kryptonian military. He became a loyal servant of General Zod and under him, helped plot to takeover the planet. When Geberal Zod took action to depose the Kryptonian Law Council, Tor-An was present when they assaulted the Legislation Chamber. Tor-An and other soldiers escorted Jor-El out. However, Jor-El managed to defeat Tor-An and use his firearm to kill two other soldiers before knocking out Tor-An.
Later, Tor-An was arrested alongside General Zod and the rest of his forces for their attempted coup d'état. He was sentenced to the Phantom Zone. After Krypton imploded the shock wave emissions freed him and the other prisoners from the Zone. He the joined General Zod again in his quest to search for other surviving Kryptonians.
After making contact with the Humans on planet Earth, Tor-An piloted General Zod and his forces to Smallville in order to acquire the growth Codex. Tor-An piloted his ship, distracting Superman away from General Zod whose visor had broken before returning aboard Zod's flagship. Tor-An then picked up Nam-Ek and Faora from Earth who also had sensory overloads from the planet's atmosphere.
Tor-An was ultimately sucked into a temporary portal to the Phantom Zone in Metropolis, along with Faora, Nam-Ek, Jax-Ur, Car-Vex, Nathan Hardy, and Emil Hamilton.
Personality
Genetically engineered into the Kryptonian Warrior Guild as a warrior, Tor-An was known as "a cold-blooded killer without a drop of mercy or compassion in his veins," as he was genetically incapable of feeling empathy towards his enemies[1] As a result, Tor-An was the favorite hatchet man of General Zod, being quick to "get his hands dirty" when the cause required it [2].
Abilities

- Expert Pilot: Tor-An is a highly skilled pilot, expertly flying a Dropship into Smallville, managing to knock down Superman and rescue first General Zod, and then Faora and Nam-Ek, after which he swiftly overpowered human military jets, shooting them to bits, much to Colonel Hardy's dismay.
