Biography
Uranos
The war was ended by the betrayal of the Eternal Druig, Uranos' own grandson. With the war lost Uranos' followers created a patchwork clone of him, who they treated as the real one and followed him into space to begin a colony on the planet Uranus, leaving the original Uranos to be captured by his brothers. He was forced to protect his own mind-scape against the Eternals for a century before he became the first of the Eternals to be imprisoned within the Exclusion because of the failsafe he imposed upon the Machine. (Eternals: The Heretic v1 #1)
He existed there for over half a million years, untouched by the later shifts of Eternal society, never being killed or resurrected even during events like Sprite's infamy or the mass suicide of the Eternals. (Eternals: The Heretic v1 #1)
When his great-nephew Thanos became Prime Eternal, he visited his great-uncle in the Exclusion on Druig's suggestion. Uranos told Thanos his story. Seeing potential in Thanos, Uranos decided to gift him his imprint-key to his armories, giving Thanos the ability to destroy the Machine. (Eternals: The Heretic v1 #1)
Afterwards, Druig usurped Thanos as Prime Eternal and discovered that Mutants were very similar to Deviants. (Eternals v5 #12) He attempted to exterminate them by obliterating the mutant island Krakoa. To his surprise, he was stopped by the Eternals' second principle to protect the Machine so he sought Uranos' aid. (A.X.E.: Eve of Judgment v1 #1) While the other Eternals under Druig's command launched an attack on Krakoa, Druig freed Uranos for a single hour to wreck havoc on Krakoa's sister nation, Arakko. (A.X.E.: Judgment Day v1 #1) Uranos unleashed his machines on the red planet, confronted both Legion and the Great Ring of Arakko, and left victorious. Unfortunately, he did not check if he had truly killed the Great Ring and most of them survived the encounter, even Magneto whose heart was ripped out. (X-Men: Red v2 #5) While back in the Exclusion, Druig unleashed him once again to prevent himself from losing the title of Prime Eternal. However, Uranos decided to ravage the Earth instead. Iron Man went to Arakko and delivered Magneto and Storm to Uranos. As they unleashed their rage on Uranos, Iron Man hacked his machines and turned them against him. (A.X.E.: Judgment Day v1 #4) Although Uranos was defeated, he was not killed because his death would destroy the Machine, and ergo Earth. (Eternals: The Heretic v1 #1)
