She was then allowed to go with Charles to Wundagore where the High Evolutionary would run tests to determine how she received her powers. Based on the tests, her powers were the result of the Phoenix force within here & its massive power activated her.

*Johann Schmidt/Red Skull: Captain America’s arch-enemy who’s a brilliant yet completely insane German scientist during World War II & the head of the Nazi party's deep science division H.Y.D.R.A. His mother, Martha, died giving birth to him, causing his drunken lout of a father to try & drown him, saying that the infant had murdered his wife, but a doctor managed to prevent him, so he went on to commit suicide. Growing up alone, the rise of the Nazis backdropping his life, he eventually found himself living a hard life on the streets, all while nursing a growing anger & frustration towards the rest of the world & managed to get a job as a bellhop for a major hotel frequented by Hitler, who later becomes a mentor & father figure to him, encouraging him to educate himself & grooming him for a powerful position in the Nazi state where he helps Hitler during the war. Like Captain America, he was placed in suspended animation, only to be reawakened.
*Baron Heinrich Zemo: A native German Nobleman who served H.Y.D.R.A. during WW2 as one of their top scientists.

*Arnim Zola: A Nazi scientist who would later become part of the special research division HYDRA during the second World War.

After transferring billions of dollars to his account, he took note of Ultron quoting Stark & realized he was a creation of Stark. Ultron took offense & amputated his left arm as a punishment. He later used the money that Ultron gave him to develop a device mounted on what was left of his left arm that was capable of producing blasts of sound & built himself a suit to contain it.
*Werner Schmidt/Brain Drain: A Nazi scientist who defected to H.Y.D.R.A. during the second world war. During the war, he often associated with Arnim Zola on the creation of the Winter Soldier. After the war ended, he was arrested & would have been sentenced to life imprisonment, had it not been for Operation Paperclip. He was recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. & would be part of one of the earliest members of the reborn H.Y.D.R.A. In 1969, he was caught in the middle of a car crash & was injured to the point where he would only live for up to 2 more months. Arnim saw his condition as the perfect opportunity to test his eventual rise to gaining immortality through making him a digitized mind. He was the basis of the process Zola would subject himself to following his physical death in 1972. However, unlike Zola whose mind whose mind was made completely immortality in cyberspace, since the process was in early development, his brain was left inside a vessel capable of integrating his mind into a computer. By the 21st Century, his brain would fall into the hands of Baron Blood, who hoped to use his enhanced mental & computer integration abilities to make him the same to him what Arnim Zola was to the Red Skull. Baron Blood arranged for him to have a modern robotic body capable of holding his brain. More than that, he was given a screen to not only display his face in any way he saw fit, but to also display the faustus method on unsuspecting enemies, allowing him to take mental control of them.

Secretly H.Y.D.R.A. gave her their version of the super soldier serum & saw fit to manipulate her into serving them. However, along with the serum, they added a theoretical addition to the formula which could increase it (a concept which would later be used for the Goblins). After she was injected, she began to go insane & was placed in a military asylum. Her stay in the Asylum wasn't forever as Whitehall, who had surface in 1989, chose to remove her from the Asylum & experiment on her to see if her above super soldier strength could be used in the future of H.Y.D.R.A. She received numerous synthesized versions of Jiaying's blood which due to their healing abilities made her able to break loose of H.Y.D.R.A.'s containment. While making her way through the facility, she came across dormant tesseract fuel cells which after massive exposure as a trap set by Whitehall, activated her latent Inhuman potential & the only reason she survived the cosmic radiation is because of the combination of the enhanced super soldier serum & Jiaying's blood. As a result, she was given numerous powers & became a monster albeit with the ability to transform herself into a normal human.

He was kept a massive secret on H.Y.D.R.A.'s part, due to the fact that he was their main source for their formula & so kept separate from the Winter Soldier's cryo-tubes. Because of H.Y.D.R.A.'s mass experimentation on him along with the physical torment, he evolved to a level superior to that of Captain America & was eventually brought under the influence of the Red Skull.
*Keene Marlow/Destroyer: A spy operating within H.Y.D.R.A.'s ranks during WW2. Red Skull later took & used him as a test subject for their prototype Super Soldier Serum.

He kicked the hapless scientist unconscious & drank down several beakers of solutions he found in the lab in the hopes that one was the growth formula. He fled the scene & was initially pleased to grow to six feet in height. He was distressed, however, to find that he continued to grow, to a height of 15' tall.

So, Fisk had him fired from his job. While he hid away in his house in depression, he was eventually approached by other research scientists led by Mitchell Carson, who offered him a chance to redeem his honor & get revenge on Fisk in the process.

As time went by, he was known to have dealt with dozens of HYDRA's projects, including one involving immortal Super-Soldiers. This project's most viable test subject was Wade Wilson, who disrespected his captors at every turn, namely him. This made him want to make an example of Wade & because H.Y.D.R.A. believed that had what they needed to create more of Wade's kind, they gave him permission to kill Wade.
