Famine (Cypher Possessed by Krakoa)

Famine's History

Famine was a member of the X-Men and one of Apocalypse's Four Horsemen. Famine came into being through a symbiotic bonding between the body of Douglas Ramsey and the consciousness of Krakoa. He was one of the few remaining mutants that inhabited the last stronghold of the Krakoan settlement of Asteroid K. As time went on, Famine and the others were confronted by Rasputin and an unnamed Cardinal who had returned from a mission after stealing valuable data from the machine main hub, the Nexus.

Their leader Apocalypse handed over the flash drive to Famine in order to hack the device. He managed to unlock it and as he searched the database, they came upon a nodule containing pertinent information regarding the genesis protocols of Nimrod's creation. With the data, a strike mission was put into place but fellow member War worried that without the cloaking ability of the deceased Percival the plan would be suicide. Apocalypse ensured everyone that they would be successful as he would lead them into battle himself.

The team split into two groups with Apocalypse, War and Famine heading to the main data repository while the others created a distraction to keep the machines busy. After Famine hacked into the citadel, the team began to look into the archives to find out when Nimrod originally came online. But this intrusion didn't go unnoticed as Nimrod was alerted to their presence. Once Famine downloaded the information into a crystal and they were about to leave, Nimrod intercepted them. Apocalypse stayed behind to cover their retreat as Famine opened a portal back to the Asteroid. Nimrod eventually gained the upper hand, and seemingly killed Apocalypse. His death was not in vain however, as War returned with the information crystal and uploaded it to Moira's mind. Following Apocalypse's orders, he proceeded to kill Moira, causing the timeline to reset and allowing Moira to be reborn with the knowledge of how Nimrod came online.
