History
Protégé was a being artificially created to be the supreme being, child-like ruler, and messianic figure of the Universal Church of Truth.[1]
In order to save the lives of the Guardians of the Galaxy, the Skrull shapeshifter Replica left them to give herself as a playmate to Protégé, her god. However, she comes into conflict with Protégé's other companion, Malevolence, the daughter of Mephisto.[2] Thus, upon receiving a call for aid from her old friend Martinex, as his planet is being torn asunder by multiple tragedies, Replica dodges the attentions of Protégé and Malevolence to answer this call, though ultimately it is Protégé who lets her go. Despite this, she still had to be rescued from a Universal Church ship by Firelord.[3]

Trivia
- As a being artificially created to be the Universal Church of Truth's supreme being, he has several visual and narrative parallels to Adam Warlock, whose alternate future evil self was the original Magus who created the Church. These visual connections include Protégé wearing the same bracelets, belt, and boots as Warlock.
