### Chernabog, The Dark God

#### Rise of the God of Darkness

Before the dawn of time and space, two entities were brought into existence, one the incarnation of light, the other of darkness. The dark entity would come to be known as **Chernabog**, the God of Darkness, and the twin of the God of Light. For eons, these two siblings were in never ending conflict and fought for the fate of the multiverse, with the balance of power constantly shifting. As the incarnations of darkness and light, Chernabog and his sibling can never be destroyed as they are living forces of nature. Though both of these entities seek dominance over the other, they acknowledge the other's importance in maintaining multiversal balance. Chernabog used all his powers to spread darkness and evil throughout the multiverse and cause destruction and chaos, actions which would let Chernabog be remembered in countless myths and legends throughout countless cultures as a Black God known by many names, but most commonly **Satan**.

Only when Chernabog's sibling harnessed the combined power of light and good through all living things, was the God of Light able to overpower Chernabog, and imprison him in a realm of darkness for eternity. However, in order to secure Chernabog's defeat, the God of Light sacrificed his physical self, becoming one with creation. The God of Light that would come to be most commonly known as Jehovah and Yahweh sparked the birth of a multitude of universes across the multiverse while planting the seeds of new lifeforms. Through Jehovah, new breeds of deities were created such as the Olympians and Asgardians, gods who would follow in Jehovah's footsteps, but every so often a few would become corrupted with darkness. With all that Jehovah had done to hold him at bay, Chernabog began plotting his revenge by corrupting all which Jehovah had created so that he could destroy and then remake the multiverse in his own image.

#### Earth-19999

On Earth-19999, before and after the universe came to be, Chernabog appeared before the Dark Elves of Svartalfheim, and came to be seen as the deity of the Dark Elves, who modeled their armor and culture to honor the Dark God. After the universe was brought into the light, Chernabog showed the Dark Elves how to use the Reality Stone to bring the universe back to the state of eternal night from which Chernabog could rule as the supreme dark deity. With light all but spreading throughout the universe after the defeat of the Dark Elves, he returned to his own realm which would be called the Darkforce Dimension. With the rifts that Chernabog created between his realm and Earth-19999, he often saw fit to enact his plans of returning Earth-19999 back to the state of eternal night. Chernabog's plans usually involved lesser beings beneath him doing his work for him so that the universe would be right for his taking such as the Dark Elves.

Chernobog had visited the planet Earth during the 12th Century in an attempt to find the Infinity Stones, having felt their presence their. His search led his existence being discovered by ancient Slavs who began to worship Chernobog as a god. These Slavs would come together with other religious groups who believed in Gods of chaos and formed what would become HYDRA.

Chernobog eventually gave up his search and returned home to his dimension, unfortunately the Inhumans of that era discovered Chernobog's search and one of their most powerful Dark Force users was able to close the rift and prevent Chernobog from opening another one. In the 1940's,  Whitney Frost would be exposed to Dark Force after a rift was created through the use of an atomic bomb. This blast gave Chernobog strength, but not enough to open a rift on his end, so he relied upon Whitney to assist him. Chernobog tempted Whitney by calling to her and filling her head with ideas of power and dominance so that she may try to open the rift again.

When she succeeded, Chernobog nearly had the power he needed to return, but instead of choosing Whitney as a vessel of transport he chose Jason Wilkes so that he may slip into our world with great power. Before he could fully control Jason, the portal was forcibly closed, but Jason still had a large portion of Chernobog's power within him, which would later be passed to Whitney Frost.  When the third rift had opened, Chernobog's power was returned to him but he wasn't able to break through the block set up by the Inhuman.

Following this ordeal, Dark Force would be studied by SHIELD and various other organizations over the decades. These experiments with Dark Force, gave Chernobog the jumps he needed to break through, which he did in the year 1997. When Chernobog broke free he initially attempted to hunt the Inhumans but realized that they had hid themselves from the world much better than he had expected.
