Obsidian North, simply Obsidian, was an advanced technology company located in National City.
After the Worldwide Unity Festival, the company went bankrupt because its main product, Obsidian Platinum, was associated with the assassin guild, Leviathan.
History
Andrea Rojas inherited the company from her father, Bernardo Rojas.[1]
Richard Bates was a beta-tester for the Obsidian Platinum virtual reality lenses; he disliked his experience because he caught his wife enjoying time with another man, but when he tried to escape the reality the failsafe did not work. He reported the problem to Kelly Olsen and Margot Morrison continued the exit interview.[2]
Todd Sapphire was fired. Later, Amy Sapphire sought to kill Andrea in the company's elevator.[3]
Alex Danvers came to Obsidian North hoping to enter Virtual Las Vegas so that she could find Trevor Crane; Kelly told Alex the rules of the virtual reality before she entered.[2]
Since Alex did not want to go to her father's funeral, but Kelly did not want to go to Midvale without her, Kelly sat in her office, letting Alex have time alone in their apartment. William Dey asked Kelly why was Lex Luthor launching so many satellites, but Kelly told him that that had nothing to do with Obsidian Platinum.[4]
Lex is greeted by Andrea and Gemma.
When Lex returned from introducing Obsidian Platinum to over a hundred different countries, he was greeted by Andrea and Gemma Cooper. Later, Gamemnae showed her anger with Lex for allowing one of her agents to be captured and for killing Margot Morrison.[5]
William and Kelly told Andrea that Eve Teschmacher might try to stop the Worldwide Unity Festival, making Andrea angry and threaten to fire Kelly.[6]
On the day of the Worldwide Unity Festival, Gamemnae conversed with the Elder in Gemma Cooper's office, but only Lex saw Gemma's transformation during the conversation. Later, Lex talked her into sending Acrata to kill Supergirl, causing Andrea to learn finally that Leviathan and Obsidian North were linked through Gemma.[1]
When news was released that the Festival was associated with Leviathan and because Supergirl told people not to use Obsidian Platinum, Obsidian North was viewed negatively by the public and Bernardo Rojas publicly blamed Andrea, causing stocks to fall for the company. Anticipating this, Andrea turned into Acrata to use her father's computer to buy stocks; this kept Andrea wealthy while bankrupting Bernardo. After the stock fall, Obsidian North went out of business,[7] leaving Kelly Olsen unemployed,[8] and Andrea wanting revenge on Lex for his part in its downfall.[9]
