History
The Bacchae were an ancient sisterhood of female warriors that were formed by Hippolyta of the Amazons. During that era, she and her fellow sister Amazons were known to instigate wars within the various lands whereupon they would attack such regions. In the midst of these attacks, Hippolyta was known to had female children kidnapped who were taken back to her island where they were raised to be faithful warriors. Thus, this gave rise to the Amazons where Hippolyta served as their queen and she named her followers as the Bacchae. This pattern of behavior and arrangement continued for many years until the arrival of Hercules on Themyscira where he arrived alongside other heroes such as Jason, Theseus and Telamon. Together, the gorup wiped out the Amazons during their quest to capture their queen's golden girdle. Theseus ended up trying to kidnap the Queen of the Amazons only to capture her sister Antiope instead who had dressed herself up as Hippolyta in order to protect her.
Following this time, Hippolyta decided to re-start the Bacchae cult in order to advance her cause in the modern age as she was immortal. Thus, she began having female street people and runaways being inducted into the Bacchae whereupon they were provided with both weapons as well as fighting skills. This led to the creation of the modern incarnation of the ancient Bacchae who were former associates of the Golden Horde. As a result, they sought to get their revenge against Susan Storm for interfering in their affairs. Afterwards, they created a private club in New York called Tartarus that served as a front for their operations and allowed them to be based at the heart of Wall Street. To outsiders, it was seen as a pleasure palace for international business elites such as the Hellfire Club. The Bacchae attempted to conduct a kidnapping only to be thwarted by the X-Men.
