Biography
His origins were traced to the ancient history of the living island of Okkara that was long ago besieged by demons. To defeat them, Apocalypse sundered the island in half thus creating two entities that were Krakoa and its twin Arrako. The Horsemen of Apocalypse remained on Arrako as it fell into the portal thus causing them to be stranded in the world of Amenth where they were led by Apocalypse's wife Genesis. For the next thousand years, they battled in the dark fallen world of Amenth where the people of Arrako defended their nation from the demonic threat. In this time, the Horsewoman War mated and had a child that would eventually join the Summoners of Arrako. Whilst growing up, he only knew of the peace behind Arrako's worlds where he lived alongside his crib-mate who became the prophet Idyl. They were initially unaware of the dangers outside within the lands of Amenth until Idyl experienced a vision that he brought to his leaders. Armed with this information, Genesis gathered an army that battled the Amenthi daemons but they were betrayed by the White Sword. Six years later, the Arrako army returned only to be betrayed again by Isca the Unbeaten who had sided with the enemy where she was sent by the god Annihilation to parlay with the Mutants. Genesis agreed to the meeting and it was believed that she was slain by the dark god with the Amenthi daemons sending their endless horde to besiege Arrako once again. In desperation, they opened a gateway to Earth and dispatched the Summoner there in the hopes that he could find his grandfather Apocalypse and that he had an army that could help save Arrako from destruction.

Whilst teaching the X-Men an Arraki game, he was approached by Apocalypse where he asked the young Mutants to depart whilst he spoke to the Summoner. Greeting his grandfather, he then decided to answer Apocalypse's query about what happened to Arrako after it was sealed away thus detailing the thousands of years worth of history that he and his people experienced. Upon telling the story, he journeyed with Apocalypse to the caldera where the External Gate had now formed where Krakoa was going to launch a rescue mission to liberate the Mutants of Arrako from danger.
