Biography[]
In "Bucket List", Starfire created a bucket list which took her 60 years to complete. Once she finally completed it, she was an old lady and she was greeted by a magical bucket that came out from a flash of light. The bucket introduced himself as "The Bucket Lord". Beast Boy recognized the Bucket Lord as his former colleague in the military. He remembered how the Bucket Lord was a total jerk, who stole his girlfriend in WWII. The Bucket Lord told Starfire that according to bucket law, due to her completion of his list, it was now her obligation to kick him as he stuck his butt out and jiggled it for her. Starfire refused to kick him, as she had not yet found meaning in life. The Bucket Lord told her that she can find meaning in life through friendship and not some stupid list and said that if she wasn't gunna kick him, he would have to kick her. The Teen Titans tried to fight the Bucket Lord but were too old and they all just collapsed onto the floor. Starfire told the Bucket Lord that he was her friend, which struck a nerve in him, as he had never had a friend before. Starfire made the Bucket Lord her friend and the other Titans befriended him as well. The Bucket Lord was wholly enlightened and decided that he had now found meaning in life and was no longer going to kill people by kicking them or making them kick him and changed his ways to become a hero. However, Beast Boy was still mad at him for stealing his girl back in WWII, so he kicked him out of vengeance, which got him killed.
