HistoryEdit

Conceiving

After Wolfsbane joined the X-Force she was captured and brainwashed by the Purifiers. X-Force rescued her and Rahne was resting in Angel's Aerie where she was founded by the asgardian Wolf Prince Hrimhari.^[1] Former lovers, they rebuilt their relationship and slept together.^[2] Soon, they were attacked by the Frost Giants and after the battle Wolfsbane lost consciousness.^[3]

Pregnancy

Hrimhari and the X-Force took her to the Utopia in hope that Elixir could heal her, but he was in a coma.^[4] Dr. Nemesis found out that Rahne was pregnant and the pregnancy kills her. To save the life of his beloved and their unborn child Hrimhari calls upon the death goddess Hela and she offered a deal: a life for a life. Unable to choose between Rahne and their child, Hrimhari exchanged his life for Elixir's, knowing that he could save them both. To save Rahne's life Elixir transferred part of the child's strength into her, so that she can bear him.^[5]

After the last mission with the X-Force, Wolfsbane leaves team and fled from the Utopia.^[6] She returned to X-Factor Investigations headquarter and met with Rictor. He decided that she was pregnant by him and Rahne didn't persuade him.^[7] Soon they met with the Dr. Castillo, she was trying to examine an embryo by ultrasound, but sound couldn't penetrate Wolfsbane's body, and Dr. Castillo decided that it is a protective function, a mystical, rather than biological. After this, Rictor realized that the baby was not his.^[8] At the same time the X-Factor has invaded Niffleheim, where Shatterstar fought with Hrimhari and learned the truth, that Hrimhari is the father of Wolfsbane's child.^[9] When the team returned to their headquarter Shatterstar and Layla Miller convinced Rictor that even if Rahne lied about his paternity, he must still be with her and support her, because of all the places in the world she came to him. Rictor agreed and went looking for Rahne to talk to her. She told him that she didn't intend to deceive him about fatherhood, but after she found out about his homosexual relationship with Shatterstar, she decided to "save his soul" by putting her and baby between him and Star. However, Rictor convinced her that it was not her fault that he became gay and she has more important things to worry about.^[10]

Birth

A few days later, Rahne and Shatterstar went for a walk, to talk about Rictor, but their conversation was interrupted when Rahne smelled blood in the church. They broke into a church and clashed with demon, the Sin-Eater, who claimed that due to the fact that Rahne's child would be born soon, the walls between dimensions weakened, and the demon was able to visit Earth. Demon invited Wolfsbane to transfer all her sins to her child, and then the Sin-Eater will kill baby, which will restore the walls. Rahne refused, and together with Shatterstar, they fought with the demon, until she escaped.

Moments later appeared Feral, she tried to kill Wolfsbane and her child, but it turned out that she was just a ghost, and was returned to the world to serve as anchor for the demons and gods, which are hunting for Rahne's child. Cu Sith, Kasha, Okami and Bastet, all appeared immediately after that. Rahne and Shatterstar fighting them all, while Layla and X-Factor (instructed by her) sprinkled salt all entrances to the headquarter and drew protective symbols on the walls, doors and windows, creating a ward, a mystic shield that prevents demonic forces from entering. When Rahne and Shatterstar arrived at headquarter, the X-Factor struggled with Cu Sith and Bastet, trying to protect Rahne and her baby, but the battle was unequal, and the team is losing, until Werewolf by Night showed up and quickly defeat them all.

Russell and Rahne fled in a car, and were attacked by Cerberus. While Russell was fighting with Cerberus, Rahne ran away. The X-Factor arrived and also got involved in a fight. Cerberus was defeated by the Fenris Wolf, who protected his grandson. At the same time Wolfsbane was creeping through the woods and met a guy named Agamemnon, who offered her help and shelter in his home. Agamemnon really wasn't human, he was a half-asgardian demigod and Hrimhari's uncle. He caught Rahne, bound her in enchanted chains and locked in protective circle. Nevertheless, Agamemnon didn't plan to cause Rahne any harm, he used drugs to relieve pain, and prepared a knife for Caesarean-section. However, the child wasn't born as usual, and got out of Rahne's mouth.

Immediately after birth, the child attacked and ripped apart Agamemnon, causing repulsion at Rahne. Her reaction frightened child and he ran away. At the same time, Madrox and Banshee went into the house. Scared child attacked them, but Terry use her sonic scream that threw him out of the house. Gods and demons has finally noticed that he was born, and continued to hunt. However the first who found child was Hela, she was going to take him with her, but before they could leave she was attacked by gods and demons. While they battled, the child hid and was later found by Russell, who intending to raise him.^[11]

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Powers

He is a demigod, the son of lupine-mutant and asgardian Wolf Prince and looks like a wolf cub with razor sharp claws and fangs. Immediately after birth, he was able to overcome Agamemnon's protective circle (that he shouldn't have been able to), and was strong and quick enough to beat him.

His body also has a certain degree of durability, as he was able to withstand Banshee's sonic scream and falling from great heights.

NotesEdit

• Darwin met a man named Tier, who claims that he is the son of Rahne Sinclair.^[12]
• In Earth-7153 Wolfsbane and Hrimhari have a daughter, Vanora, not son.
