The Manitou Stone came down from the sky, where it was found by Iroquois warrior Flying Stag[3].
History
It gave him great powers, including strength, speed, and improved senses, which he used as the hero Super-Chief. The stone was passed down, through the generations, until it was given to Flying Stag's descendent, Jon Standing Bear.[1] Jon used it during his brief career as the new Super-Chief, a member of the Justice League of America. After Jon was killed by Skeets, he was transported to a mystical realm, where Flying Stag took the stone back and gave it to Ralph Dibny.[2]
Powers
The user of the stone will be imbued with:
- The strength of a thousand bears[3]
- Speed that surpasses the fastest of the deer [3]
- Jumping prowess that surpasses those of the wolf [3]
- Flight[4]
Weaknesses
- The Manitou Stone's powers will fade after "the time in which a man can run 20,000 paces"[3], or roughly an hour.
