Description Reworked Ryan Choi's Atom design for my Elseworld Universe.

Ryan Choi is this Elseworld Universe's incarnation of the Atom. Ryan Choi was a brilliant and promising student of physics as well as a protege and teaching assistant to world renowned physicist Dr. Raymond Palmer who worked and taught at the prestigious Ivy University located in Ivy Town. Choi is also a world class martial artist/enthusiast having learned and mastered various fighting styles starting from when he was old enough to walk and has participated in and won various martial arts tournaments worldwide.

His mentor Ray Palmer comes into possession of an extraterrestrial element that he identifies as being white dwarf star matter which he begins experimenting with eventually developing a means of shrinking other forms of matter. After various research and testing Palmer with assistance from Choi, goes on to create a prototype belt device which in theory will allow a human being to reduce in size with the practical intent of such a device to be utilized in various scientific, medical and rescue applications.

The scientific cabal known as the Hierarchy of International Vengeance and Extermination (the H.I.V.E.) learns of Palmer's research with the prototype belt and send agents in their employ to take custody of both Ray Palmer and the belt to use for their own criminal ends. The H.I.V.E. agents succeed in capturing Palmer but Ryan is able to prevent them from acquiring the belt by donning it and uses it to free Palmer.

The incident brings Dr. Palmer and Choi to the realization that The H.I.V.E. as well as other criminal elements may again attempt to gain possession of Palmer's mind and the belt. Since Ryan made a good showing of himself against the H.I.V.E. agents with the belt, Palmer decides that the best way to keep the belt out of the wrong hands is for Ryan to take possession of it and make use of it himself. To that end Choi creates the costume identity of the Atom and has used it to strike at the H.I.V.E. and other various criminal entities and organizations seeking to operate within Ivy Town. As the Atom Choi has also gone on to become a member of the Justice League.  

Since graduating from Ivy University, Ryan Choi has gone on to be employed as part of the physics division of STAR Labs branch that operates in Ivy Town and still receives advice and guidance from his friend and mentor Ray Palmer.
