Character
Ray is a billionaire inventor who puts in a competing bid on taking over Queen Consolidated and wins over the board, ousting Oliver Queen. Palmer turns the company into Palmer Technologies and promises to put his wealth and ideas into rebuilding Starling, which he rebrands Star City. Eventually he reveals to Felicity his ulterior motive to perfect his Atom Suit in order to act as a superhero vigilante, protecting the city and honoring his late fiancée, Anna Loring, who died at the hands of the Mirakuru murderers. In spite of worrying about his safety, Felicity quickly finds herself drawn to Ray's charm, intelligence and ambition, and the two become romantically involved. When he is hospitalised after being injured in the field, Ray tells Felicity he loves her, she doesn't respond and he realises that she loves Oliver. They break up and Ray stays in Star City, but is recruited by Rip Hunter to join the Legends.
