Biography
Yehya Badr was a male human born in Luxor, Egypt to two doctors in the modern age. Growing up, he became an excellent student throughout his life, eventually becoming a doctor as well. He grew to become a very rational and serious person who did not believe in any higher entities, despite still attending prayer and studying the Qur'an and Hadith. This all changed when he was attacked by Vampires and left to die on the streets, at which point he met the Egyptian Moon God Khonshu. (Moon Knight v9 #6)
Yehya survived and became a worshipper of Khonshu known as Hunter's Moon, the god's second high priest, and opposite of Marc Spector, the Moon Knight. After Moon Knight rejected to worship Khonshu but appropriated his mission, establishing a congregation called the Midnight Mission, Badr moved his territory and took over a free clinic in the neighborhood. Keeping watch of Moon Knight, Badr intended to correct the vigilante, whom he believed had strayed away from Khonshu's purpose. (Moon Knight v9 #1)
After learning that Moon Knight had taken in vampires under his protection, Badr terrorized the nightwalkers to get his attention. Hunter's Moon eventually confronted Moon Knight, chastised for taking in enemies of Khonshu and expressed his intentions to "correct" him. Badr beat Moon Knight and invaded the Midnight Mission to kill the vampires, but Spector recovered and knocked him unconscious after attacking him from behind. Dragging Badr outside his building, Moon Knight warned him about crossing him again. (Moon Knight v9 #3)
