History

Host is a self appointed freedom fighter of the rights of all viruses everywhere, being a mutant who can communicate with and control pathogens at will.

The host was captured by Wolverine in Wakanda for S.H.I.E.L.D.. She is then enlisted by Nick Fury, Jr. and Maria Hill to help save all of Earth's living creatures, including the viruses and bacteria she'd sworn to protect, from a living virus from the Microverse.
