History

Terrance Hoffman (Earth-616) from All-New X-Factor Vol 1 1 0003

Dr. Terrance Hoffman

Origin[]

Dr. Terrance Hoffman was a scientist of A.I.M. who was looking for mutants to achieve his goals.[1][2] He spent his whole adult life looking to grant himself with mutant powers.[3]

Saving Fatale, Reaper, and Abyss[]

Finding Fatale, Reaper, and Abyss frozen within the latters' Brimstone Dimension, he saved them from it only to capture them and drain their mutant energies.[2]

As he was about to dissect Fatale, drained as much as possible, his compound was attacked by Serval Industries' X-Factor, led by Polaris.[1]

The powering process

Mutant[]

Draining both Reaper and Abyss and overpowering himself, Hoffman gained giant size and energy manipulation, and killed the operator as he before he could stop the process, and then battled X-Factor. He was quickly defeated by Gambit and Quicksilver, the latter quickly transporting the former to his rear to deliver an explosive card, defeating Hoffman and seemingly depowering him, as he wasn't able to retain the energies while unconscious.[2]

Reaper tried to execute him while he was knocked out, under the protests of Polaris and the support of Fatale, but was denied the opportunity by Quicksilver, leading to an attempt to fight with the speedster, not over Hoffman's life but due to Pietro's involvement in the prisoner's fate.[2]

Recruited by Serval Industries[]

Hoffman was left in the custody of X-Factor and send to Serval's head office, restrained, and tested to be still a human. There, Serval President Harrison Snow offered him a place in his company.[3]
