As a result, many of its characters are original as opposed to adaptations. While franchise mainstays like Clark Kent, Lex Luthor, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen are all prominently featured, new characters often receive as much screen time. In fact,
some of Smallville"s most popular heroes and villains originated from the series.
Across 10 seasons, it introduced many, many characters, ranging from bit roles to major supporting players. While some, like Clark"s girlfriend Alicia or the resurrected teen Adam Knight, leave an impact on viewers, others show up for one episode.

In Smallville, he created the technology that led to the invention of the Brain InterActive Construct, or Brainiac. After he realized Brainiac"s destructive capabilities, Dax-Ur exiled himself to Earth out of guilt. Once there, he attempted to study the effect of sunlight on Kryptonite but instead discovered it gave him abilities.
Though he could have used his powers for good, Dax-Ur decided to use blue Kryptonite to dampen them. He married a human and had a son named Max. His story is a mirror of the life Clark could have had if he decided not to become a hero. This decision comes back to bite him, though, as Dax-Ur is unable to protect himself when Brainiac discovers him. Despite his short screen time, Dax-Ur is an interesting presence on Smallville, and he ties in well with Clark"s inner conflict throughout the series.
