Doctor Fate src

Khalid Ben-Hassin was the vessel for Nabu, a Egyptian mage whose powers flowed through the Helmet of Fate. As Doctor Fate, he is a member of the Wonders of the World and was a powerful sorcerer. After the destruction of the helm, he later worked as an ambassador for the World Army.

Khalid, together with Kendra Munoz-Saunders was hired by the military (World Army) to find Nabu's tomb which brought them to Egypt. Under unclear circumstances, Kendra was suddenly gifted with wings while Khalid found the Helmet of Fate which contains the powers and essence of Nabu. When Khalid wore the helmet, he was imbued with the powers of Nabu. However, it also imbued him with the essence of Nabu. After removing the helmet Khalid experiences bouts of insanity. In order to keep the helmet, and in effect, its energy safe, Khalid ordered the helmet and its powers to go to where no one could ever get it, inside the Tower of Fate.

Wotan now seeks to make Nabu's power his own. Using the Flash's mother as leverage, Khalid and the Flash enter the Tower of Fate and encounters its guardian, the Great Beast
