Biography

He’s grew up in New York and went to prison (See Luke Cage Biography for details).

When the epidemic of the legacy virus began raging out of control the mutant population was devastated. When the mutant Cypher lay dieing his alien friend Warlock tried to save his life by fusing with him. What occurred was the legacy virus merged with the alien Phalanx Virus saving his life but making them a vampiric techno organic creature. All those infected became known as the V-Lock.

Endangering the human race as a whole many heroes were killed in it’s wake. One such person was Danny Rand the original Iron Fist. Before his death he managed to transfer all his power to his best friend Luke Cage ensuring that his legacy would live on to fight the V-Lock.

When the Exiles came to his world they helped to finally put an end to the v-lock thus saving his world. He remained a hero and helped in rebuilding his world until he was recruited by Quentin Quire to save his world from the annihilation Wave.
