StryfeStryfe is a fictional character, a Marvel Comics supervillain, who has perpetrated several heinous acts. History When Apocalypse infected the infant Cable with a techno-organic virus, a woman from the distant future appeared to Cyclops and Jean Grey, called herself Askani, and told them that she could save the child, but it meant they would never see him again. Reluctantly, they handed him over. When they arrived in the future, Askani died, and her kin cloned the baby, hoping to salvage something if he died. Fortunately, he did not die, and both infant and clone were healthy, until the forces of Apocalypse attacked and stole the cloned infant. Apocalypse took the child as his own, and named him Stryfe, after the name of a particularly powerful foe he once faced, and planned to transfer his essence into Stryfe's body. When he was about to do so, a teenage Cable and the time-travelling Cyclops and Jean (as "Slym" and "Redd" respectively) interrupted and prevented Apocalypse from transferring, and his essence discorporated. His second in command, Ch'vayre, raised Stryfe afterward. Stryfe managed to travel back in time some two thousand years and sow chaos in the ranks of the X-Men, posing as Cable and attacking Professor X, as well as forming a mutant terrorist group, the Mutant Liberation Front. During this time, he also fought Apocalypse and nearly destroyed him. As a final insurance, he gave Mister Sinister a canister that he claimed held genetic material from two thousand years' worth of Summers descendants; in truth, it held the deadly Legacy virus. Stryfe and Cable battled until Cable opened a temporal rift, and Stryfe's body was destroyed, but his consciousness entered Cable's mind, and he stayed there until he voluntarily left some time later. Now physically dead, Stryfe went to Hell, where he attempted to return to life through the body of Warpath. Although he failed, he later returned through different means. After a brief return to villainy, he seemingly died again, battling an extra-terrestrial virus alongside Bishop and Gambit. Powers Stryfe is an alpha-class telepath and telekinetic, with raw potential equal to that of Professor X. Unlike his genetic template Cable, he has nothing to hold back his powers.
