## Backstory

#### Early Life:

Hazel was born in south Luisiana near New Orleans on a small farm belonging to the Walker Family. Most of his farm life would be boring as due to his mutation all he needed was to experience something to learn it. School, Work, Chores, all of it would be a breeze for Hazel, which made him believe he was destined for something more.

His Family sold the Farm to one of his uncles after the Chitauri Invasion, they used their money to buy up some land and settle into a nice place while New York was recovering. At School Hazel would strive just like back home but after meeting the most beautiful girl he started to spend more of his time there. Helping her with math and after her Mutation activated helping her hide away from the world.

#### Infinity War:

At the start of the Infinity War Hazel and Winter were simply making the most of Winter’s predicament when Thanos started to attack, completely oblivious while the world crumbled around them.

When Slinger and the Avengers called for Heroes to come help them they did not expect what they got…among powerful mutants and the Hulk there was Hazel and Winter. Winter gained many powerful abilities while there but Hazel was simply her emotional support, using his danger sense to avoid Thanos during the Battle of Central Park while he assisted people in escaping the battle.

Having followed the Avengers the Duo would be sidelined for most of the War while Thanos collected all the Infinity Stones. However they once again battled the Mad Titan in Times Square with the entire Avengers force there. This time almost being erased with the entire universe when Doctor Strange saved them with a spell. In the Beyonder’s realm they were given new infinity stones that would allow them to kill Thanos. This lead to Hazel having the reality stone in his pocket for a time…

#### Civil Cleansing:

Post Infinity War Hazel and Winter were both kidnapped by Legion’s alter ego Yuta, who gave them as a gift to King Castor Von Doom. Castor would weave a story about how they were kidnapped by Symkaria, Castor’s enemies at the time, and he had rescued them before they could be turned into weapons. Believing Castor they agreed to take solitude in Doomstadt, as some of the first Mutants in the new Mutant Nation.

Being given an opportunity by King Doom after agreeing to stay Hazel was signed up for the Lieutenant Latveria unit. A Military stunt to mass produce Super Soldiers by the Hundreds. Hazel was the only survivor after the serum rejected everyone else, something he watched happen.

Being sent in to help secure Symkaria along side the newly minted Blizzard the two would cut a swath through invading Symkarian forces until the end of the war, becoming Doom’s first Dark Avengers

For over two years they protected and served Latveria while America had its Civil Cleansing, eventually the War against Mutants lead to War with Latveria. The Dark Avengers entering a guerrilla war that only ended after Doctor Doom killed President Rose and took his Soul. Leading to Maxwell Stark’s ascension to Presidency

#### Unlocking his Birthrights

While the World was at peace the former Black Knight passed away, leaving his estate and duties to his heir. His nephew Hazel, together with Blizzard and Hazel’s bestest bud ever they went to the Black Knight’s Mansion.

In the snow of Sweden they wandered through the haunted house, meeting the Black Knight’s butler and receiving the Ebony Blade, which summoned the Bloodwraith. Fighting it proved ineffective however Hazel activating his sword lead to its retreat and the unleashing of Sir Percival. The first Black Knight, who would train Hazel in the ways of a Black Knight.

#### Howling Commandos

After Sir Percival sensed a resurgence of Arthurian Power Hazel was drawn to New York City for Slinger Issue 6. The battle against a demonic Batroc the Leaper and Baron Mordo was intense and resulted in Hazel being hurt. Hazel would then see he needed a new team to watch his back as Percival and him investigate. Leading to the formation of the Howling Commandos.

During the operation in Issue 1 of Howling Commandos in which the team recruited Doctor Voodoo who was protecting the Black Mirror, Hazel’s Ebony Blade was sadly destroyed by Baron Mordo.

However he strived to ensure that was nothing more than a setback.

## Personality

Hazel is possibly the most wholesome and genuinely nice person on the planet to his friends and even random strangers. However his enemies bring out a certain determination from him that not even Captain America has. In battle it has to be victory at all costs.

Out of all the DA he is considered the most trusting of Doom, having put his entire life in the King’s hands several times.

## Powers

Hazel is a Mutant born from two powerful hero bloodlines. Having his own powers and the powers of his ancestors, meaning his one of the strongest lower level heroes. After the Dark Dimension expelled it’s energies Hazel’s mutation developed to also be able to Shadowstep.

With the Ebony Blade he can notably cut through anything as if the sword was a lightsaber, it’s magic transforms his body into mystical armor that results in Hazel being unkillable in combat, and the sword’s bloodlust unlocks Hazel’s ability to use Voodoo.

Due to the Super Soldier Formula Hazel’s body is considered perfect human capability, as well with a superhuman level of strength, speed, and durability. This puts him on par with Captain America.

His original main mutant abilities of danger sense, which while similar to Spider-Man’s can not be refined into any form of precognition, however is still a critical edge in combat without the Ebony Blade, and his Photomnemonic Body, which results in Hazel perfectly memorizing everything around him and being able to perfectly recall and comprehend the information, meaning he can read a flight manual in minutes and be able to fly without ever needing training. These abilities are what allowed Hazel to become a top hero and warrior so quickly.
