The entity for anger and rage is the Butcher. The red light was first harnessed by Atrocitus of the Five Inversions, using blood rituals to form Red Power Rings and Batteries to be used by his Red Lantern Corps. However, controlling the red light also renders the heart useless and spoils the blood of the wielder. Using a person's rage, they are able to tap into the red light. Red is one of the energies far from the center, and represents the emotion of rage/anger. Each of these fundamental emotions is represented by a living entity who feeds on these emotions.

Additionally, they discovered that each of these fields of energy had a sentient embodiment which could induce the correlating emotion.Īccording to a prophecy in the Book of Oa, the seven colors of the emotional spectrum would be harnessed by seven different Lantern Corps, which would go to war with each other in a conflict called the War of Light. They discovered that the farther one is away from the center of the Spectrum, the more control the energy has on the wielder. The Guardians of the Universe and their successor races eventually chose to harness the emotions of several different colors. It was previously believed that the Maltusians, the oldest known race in existence, were the first to discover and harness this field, however it was actually originally discovered by Volthoom and his mother from Earth 15 some time shortly before 3079 A.D. Inadvertently, sentient beings created seven unique forms of energy based on their emotions, with a color unique to the emotion.
