Bio:

Cobra will stop at nowhere in their recruitment tactics. Tapping an untold number of resources is what CobraCorps specializes in, and when it comes to getting new members, location does not stop them. Spreading their reach into the “Badlands” of North America, a barren, radioactive wasteland home to who knows what kind of people and creatures. There are mutants abound, disfigured humans, lost to the world around them and willing to do anything to fit into “normal” humanity. Perfect for Cobra Corps’ uses.

Born with no eyes, Darkness was at an immediate disadvantage in the cutthroat world of the Badlands. Soon into childhood, he befriended another young mutant, one of the more disturbingly disfigured ones. Because of his lack of sight, Darkness held no prejudices. Even though his comrade could not speak, they communicated anyway, through sound and movement and touch, which Darkness could feel and react upon. He became the young man’s communicator, and he was his eyes, and their friendship grew. Even when CobraCorps showed up to offer them their place, they agreed to go together and were both accepted into the Badlands Mercenary crew. Darkness and Silence became a fearful team, working so well in conjunction that virtually any target they approached had no chance of avoiding both of them.

Darkness was also very willing to undergo the necessary adjustments to become a full-fledged assassin for Cobra Corps. A satellite link was circuited directly into his brain, allowing him “mental” communication with the other two, guided through the satellite-like technology that was integrated into Void’s endoskeleton. He was also given a very powerful internal radar, allowing him to see better than anyone on the planet, even the darkest of nights. This, combined with the twin weapons he has interweaved into the circuitry on his arms make him a very viable adversary.


From the files of Redwolf: “Darkness befalls the uncertain man, an old tribal legend speaks. I often wondered the meaning of that phrase…until now!”
