Ian Randall was an intelligent metahuman student who hoped to graduate early and leave Smallville. Unlike most kryptonite metahumans, it is unclear how Ian received his powers.He had the ability to create a duplicate of himself by fully concentrating his will. He stripped off his clothing and the duplicate climbed out of his back. The duplicate was completely capable of independent thought. The original Randall could absorb the duplicate back into himself at will, absorbing the memories, skills, and experiences of the duplicate. In this way he was able to attend twice as many classes and planned to graduate from High School early and use the Luthor scholarship to go to an Ivy League college.He killed Mr. Frankel, the shop teacher, who had threatened to give him a C. He initially attracted Clark's attention when he and a duplicate began to date Lana Lang and Chloe Sullivan simultaneously, deflecting Clark's accusations by claiming that Clark was just jealous. To avoid being exposed, he attempted to kill Lana and Chloe by hurling them off a damn, but Clark stopped him. Apparently the body of one of Ian's copies was found at the bottom of the dam, as reported by the Smallville Ledger.The surviving Ian was sent to Belle Reve, where he nurtured a strong grudge against Clark. A year later, he aided Eric Summers in killing Van McNulty and using a kryptonite sample to steal Clark's powers, but was tossed away to his death by the traitorous Eric before Clark could reverse the process.
