| - Born Zachary Caine, he was often known simply as 'Rage'. Even as a small child he had a temper, and was prone to violence. A bully throughout grade school, troublemaker in middle school, and a thug in high school, his parents tried just about everything to squash his anger. Various suspensions and expulsions, trips to every form of shrink in existence, and a few visits from the family's pastor later, and he finally decided he'd had enough. On his eighteenth birthday, he simply up and left. No note, no indication of where he was going. He just stole what he could find in his parents' wallets and headed out the door. A few days later, there was a freak accident. An small explosion and a hot fire, blamed on a gas leak, killed both of the Caines. Zachary was nowhere to be found.

| - Born Zachary Caine, he was often known simply as 'Rage'. Even as a small child he had a temper, and was prone to violence. A bully throughout grade school, troublemaker in middle school, and a thug in high school, his parents tried just about everything to squash his anger. Various suspensions and expulsions, trips to every form of shrink in existence, and a few visits from the family's pastor later, and he finally decided he'd had enough. On his eighteenth birthday, he simply up and left. No note, no indication of where he was going. He just stole what he could find in his parents' wallets and headed out the door. A few days later, there was a freak accident. An small explosion and a hot fire, blamed on a gas leak, killed both of the Caines. Zachary was nowhere to be found. He had taken on a new name and headed about as far away from his birthplace as that stolen cash would get him. He was responsible for the gas leak, yes, and the electrical short that ignited it. And his parents would not be the last victims of his wrath. Carving out a name for himself throughout his world in murders ranging from the quick and clean to the gruesome and deeply disturbing, the man eventually tossed aside all of his aliases in favor of one: Rage. Rage never stayed in one place for very long. He couldn't afford to. He had various surgeries and other alterations made to his appearance. It got to the point where he couldn't remember his real name, or his real face. His already-unstable mind warped further, and he was no longer simply murdering people who angered him... Rage was killed in a standoff with police involving several forms of explosives and illegal firearms. The Descendants plucked him out of hell to serve as the Demon of Wrath, renaming him to Zariel and erasing his memories entirely. This has cut out some of the mental instability, but he still possesses that one defining characteristic: Rage.
