Description

Lincoln West was born in Malibu in Southern California but his parents filed for divorce when he was 16. Hungering to replace the emptiness that eluded him after they split, he joined the Navy on his 17th birthday (with parental consent) and remarkably, he fenagled his way into Navy Seal training and blazed through it. Looking for further challenges, Linc re-upped with the Army instead and passed Army Ranger training admirably only to jump over into and pass Green Beret training as well.

After racking up numerous successful combat and covert missions, Linc was most recently sent to the Mideast to assist breaking up targeted terrorist camps. His team stumbled into a booby-trapped terrorist den. It detonated in close quarters and his fellow soldiers were killed instantly. The force of the explosion hurled Linc's body through a decaying stone wall and into a hidden cave full of ancient Babylonian artifacts. Linc's broken body landed on a jet black obelisk that punctured his back and skewered his heart. Linc knew he should have died but he didn't. His last sight before losing consciousness was the obelisk melting liquid-like into his body.

Linc was awoken later by his platoon but was miraculously found to have no injuries. Dumbfounded by his own survival, Linc grieved the tragic loss of his closest friends, despite being credited with locating a treasure trove of priceless ancient artifacts, and insisted on breaking from the steady flow of combat deaths he had experienced in his military career. Meeting with high-level resistance from the upper echelons, Linc discovered that the obelisk was an obscure ancient artifact of enchanted power dubbed the Ebonox Core that now allows him to psionically project black liquid-like energies and instantly mind-shape them into complex floating hard-surfaced constructs. Using its unique properties, Linc managed to force his own break from military service. With little else to fall back on, and still hungering to belong, Linc decided to pass off his newfound abilities as those of a synergenetic human whereupon he joined the Unified Nations research initiative for synergenetic humans. This is where we see Linc in Issue 1.
