Jordan's oath would be adopted by many of his fellow Green Lanterns, including most of the Green Lantern Corps of Earth. The most widely known oath was that of Hal Jordan of Earth, considered the greatest Green Lantern off all.

A few Green Lanterns, such as Lysandra of Zintha, chose oaths to honor their deities, and would speak it as a prayer.Ī number of oaths, such as that of Olapet of Southern Goldstar, remain untranslatable by the power ring. Oaths may reflect the ring wielder's adventures, their homeworld, the cosmos, or be a battle cry. Though an oath is not necessary for the ring or power battery to function properly, it can be used for timing and to steel the ring wielder's concentration.

Hal Jordan in the short time he wore one, was the first Red Lantern to use constructs, as he possessed the strength of will to create them. Few Red Lanterns make use of their rings ability to make constructs rather preferring to attack them with their bare hands or burn them, Atrocitus himself, despite possessing the clarity to think while using his ring, never makes constructs.As they have no use for their hearts, the Red Lanterns are unaffected by the heart-ripping attack of a Black Lantern. “With blood and rage of crimson red, ripped from a corpse so freshly dead, together with our hellish hate, we’ll burn you all, that is your Fate!” – Atrocitus Trivia Labs missions, Atrocitus aids Sinestro into taking over Earth and can be used for an attack when needed.

He blames the Guardians of the Universe for the massacre of his sector, and because of this Atrocitus built up years of hatred and rage. The Red Lantern Ring was born out of anger and crystallized the blood of the Inversions.Ītrocitus’ first discovery of the red spectrum came during the years of incarceration he endured on the prison planet of Ysmault. Using the blood magics of the Five Inversions, Atrocitus harnessed the red spectrum of light, allowing him to empower the rage within him.
