In appearance, Devin was outwardly indistinguishable from a [[Human (Classic)|human]].

Yellow omni Characters and/or events depicted in this article are retconned from the main continuity.

I never had a partner named Devin Levin, did I? You implanted that memory years ago so I'd feel obligated, so I'd keep an eye on Kevin.

Max to Servantis.[1]

Devin Levin was a false memory planted in Max Tennyson's mind by Servantis.[1] He was supposedly Kevin's father and Max's partner.

Appearance

Devin was indistinguishable from a Caucasian human, having black pupils and short black hair. He did not have horns on his head like Aggregor.

In a fake photo,[DJW 1] Devin wore a red buttoned shirt over a white T-shirt.

Personality

Devin was described by Max and subsequently shown as "energetic" and "likable".[2]

History

Alien Force

Devin's "existence" was first mentioned in Darkstar Rising, though his full name was not revealed until If All Else Fails.

In Max's false memory, as chronicled as a flashback in Vendetta, Max and Devin were trying to escape from Ragnarok, a dangerous criminal who steals the energy of stars and sells them to the highest bidder. The key to his ship having been stolen by Devin, Ragnarok was in pursuit to retrieve it. Having managed to render their ship dead in space, Ragnarok boarded and attacked them, demanding his key back.

Levinslast

Devin's final moments

When none of his or Max's weapons were effective against Ragnarok, Devin was forced to absorb electricity to buy them some time. While Devin was able to retain his sanity, Ragnarok managed to prevent Max from using a Null Void Projector and trapped them both under heavy fire. Devin shielded Max from Ragnarok's attack, buying Max a chance to get his hands on the Null Void Projector and send Ragnarok to the Null Void. Devin died in Max's arms, expressing that dying to save Earth wasn't a bad way to go. His last request was for Max to tell his wife and son, who was about four at the time, that he loved them.

Omniverse

In The Rooters of All Evil, Max found out that Devin was a false memory Servantis gave to him in order to manipulate him into keeping an eye on Kevin.

Powers and Abilities

Devin could absorb energy, such as from wires.[2]

Devin could discharge his stored energy by projecting it out of his hands.[2]

Devin was skilled in using Plumber weaponry.[2]

Equipment

Devin had a Plumber suit, allowing him to survive in unsuitable environments and granting him increased defense during battles with his opponents. However, there was a limit to how much protection the suit could offer, as when Devin was blasted by Ragnarok's solar energy rays, he died shortly after.[2]

Weaknesses

Any energy Devin absorbed would dissipate over time or through excessive use, so he was required to recharge. This was shown when he ran out of energy after blasting Ragnarok.[2]

Absorbing energy would lead to Devin losing his sanity.[2] Had he survived the fight with Ragnarok, he would have received side effects.[DM 1]

Appearances
