Aqualad

Aqualad is a fictional character, a superhero from DC Comics. He was Aquaman's teenage partner, and like many other such 'kid sidekicks' popular in the Silver Age, his powers originally varied very little from his mentor.

Aqualad's real name is Garth, and his origin is similar to that of his mentor: he is an amphibious humanoid who was left to die but survived to become a hero. He was one of the founding members of the Teen Titans, and has been been a member of that team in many of its incarnations. His girlfriend for many years was Aquagirl, until her death during the Crisis on Infinite Earths.

As a result of his grief and repeated telepathic abuse by Mento, among other factors, Aqualad lost his ability to control marine life. While he later regained this power during the Millennium event, it came with the condition that his commands must now be phrased as requests to the creatures to perform desired actions, although the animals apparently need little persuasion.

After receiving training in the arts of sorcery, Garth adopted the alias of Tempest, and resumed his role as Aquaman's right hand man. Some friction arose between the two heroes when Aquaman's lover, Dolphin, left him for Tempest, but the two have since resolved their differences. Tempest and Dolphin are now married with a young son named Cerdian.
