HistoryEdit

The genius son of a weapons-manufacturer, Kade Kilgore plotted the join the Hellfire Club. He spent two years blackmailing the board of his father's company to install him as the new C.E.O. Kade used a psi-blocking helmet and a light-bending wetsuit to sneak onto Utopia and free Quentin Quire from his containment cell. After Quentin interrupted an arms control summit in Switzerland (which Kade's father was attending) by telepathically making the assembled diplomats reveal their dirtiest secrets on live television, Kade shot his father to death and dumped his body out of his flying car and into the mountains. With the resulting fear and panic after Quentin's attack, The Hellfire Club then toasted the 12-year-old as their new Black King.^[1]
