| HistoryText
| - ===Origins===
Merrick is the oldest between him and Carol, being born two years to his mother and Azazel and only remembering his father very little before he left. This left his mother trying to take care of them as a single mother for a time before she eventually left the city life, mostly out of fear her kids would be viewed as freaks which already had an impression upon young Merrick. Before they had moved many had seen the child and found his appearance like that of a demon from hell or a devil, thus earning him two of his current aliases and for the longest time would lead Merrick to believe himself to truly be a freak.
When moving to the country side and being in the same house as his grandparents he tried to find ways in which to keep himself occupied. Often, this included doing some acrobatics and an interest in archery more then anything. So when his mother wasn't teaching him and his sister he would be off on his own practicing with a bow and occasionally acrobatics. But this would soon be compromised with many years of back pain, sometimes to the point he became unable to leave his bed or left stunned for minutes on end before he could completely move again.
By the time he was thirteen Merrick was the first of the siblings to realize he had more then just his appearance as a mutation, but also many others often seen among the Neyaphem race. Despite this, he completely shrugged off the offer of becoming a gymnast like his sister and preferred learning things on his own, not to mention a dislike towards humans as it was. Much of that hate though came from the fact they seemed to be fearful and hated them which only further deepened his belief that they were nothing but freaks.
Though when an incident happened with his sister and the crowds normally seen at the gym Merrick confronted his mother about their appearances and mutant heritage. Eventually, their mother gave in and told the two but what sealed the deal to drive Merrick away was the attack on his sister which led him to angrily retaliate, killing some of the people who attacked her before leaving himself. Thus he wound up drifting from place to place, eventually gaining his current black wings at sixteen that had been a painful process and finally ending the days he was plagued by those back pains, a relief he welcomed.
Something New
Eventually, a year following his wings coming in he was approached by Illyana and Emma from the New Charles School to join them. He gave no hesitation to say yes, having heard about the mutant revolution and thought they had a pretty good thing going there. But shortly after he was recruited Merrick was put on a team of other young mutants under Tempus and soon was going to be trained as a new generation of X-men.
He, however, found himself and his teammates approached by Hell's Circle to serve as a secondary team for them. Finding the name fitting, he was the first to agree to it before the others likewise agreed.

| Abilities
| - *Merrick is a decent acrobat to the point he has shown to best use it in aerial combat, performing some moves most fliers would only imagine.
*He also is self taught in Unarmed combat but is mostly a practitioner of using close range fighting.
*However, Merrick, using his acrobatic and unarmed combat skills, has shown some incredible potential to be an excellent aerial combatant as well.
*He has also over the years taught himself archery, getting accurate enough he can hit a target from 150 to 200 feet. Though he is a far cry from being the next Hawkeye.

| Weaknesses
| - *With his hollow bones Merrick is far more susceptible to serious injury and usually must rely on his acrobatics, speed, and agility in order to avoid it.
*His eletrokinesis requires an electric energy source, thus with none around he cannot use this power.
*His wings can easily be a target, and permanent damage could result in amputation, thus easily losing one power.

| Powers
| - *Superhuman Reflexes:Merrick has reflexes that are above the average human, allowing him to react far more quickly then the average person might.
*Superhuman Agility:Merrick's bodily coordination and balance are above the greatest human athlete, allowing him to perform feats most humans would need years to do.
*Superhuman Flexibility:Due to his physiology Merrick has greater flexibility then any human. This allows him to contort his body in ways even humans with many years of experience could never hope to achieve.
*Wing Manifestation:Merrick has two ten foot long wings that are black in color. This grants him great maneuverability in the air and allowing him to fly as high as 10,000 feet. It also grants him to be able to carry one or two other people.
**Aerial Adaptation:With his wings Merrick also has some aerial adaptation. His lung capacity is enhanced to allow him to have more oxygen, especially when having to withstand the higher and lower air pressures of the atmosphere when in flight. This also makes his bones somewhat hollow to allow him to be light enough for flight.
*Electrokinesis:Merrick has a minor use of manipulating electricity. He is a strong enough user he can absorb and store electrical energy, tapping into electrical sources or the electrical fields around him in order to use for later. He can then project it into concussive force blasts or to parts of his body in order to stun and shock people. He can also cover his entire body in an electrical aura in order to enhance his physical prowess.
