History

Scalphunter, a Native American, is a member of the Marauders, a band of assassins who were gathered together by the mutant thief Gambit at the request of the enigmatic mastermind known as Mister Sinister. He originally fought in World War II for the United States, but was executed for murdering his fellow officers. He was shot by a firing squad and was believed killed. However, he and was found and recruited by Sinister.

Sinister first sent the Marauders to murder the entire population of the underground mutant community known as the Morlocks. He shot the young Morlock Tommy after finding the location of 'The Alley', the Morlock's home in the tunnels. In the course of this mutant massacre, the Marauders clashed with the mutant adventurers known as the X-Men and the original X-Factor team.

Subsequently, the X-Men thwarted the Marauders' attempt to assassinate Sinister's former pawn, Madelyne Pryor, in San Francisco. Later, Sinister sent the Marauders to battle the X-Men during the time of the demonic invasion of New York City known as the "Inferno". The Marauders later clashed with the dimensionally-displaced young mutant known as Nate Grey after they attempted to assassinate Sinister's former servant, Threnody. Scalphunter's clone was killed in this conflict.

Scalphunter was one of the still-powered mutants living in tents on the Xavier Institute lawn after almost all mutants were depowered on M-Day. However, when Apocalypse came, he chose to serve him. When Havok warned him, along with Fever Pitch, and Skids that they were in way over their heads, Scalphunter replied that Apocalypse had explained it all to them and was on their side.

Most recently Greycrow (or a clone of him) has been seen at the Xavier Institute as part of the '198.' He has become romantically involved with Arclight.
