OriginÂ

A walking behemoth, he has clashed with several other powerful foes, including Quasar, Thor and multiple Eternals, including Ransak and Karkas. Approximately a millennium ago, the Eternals Druig, Valkin, Virako, and Ajak, headed to Peru in South America in order to prevent Thor from possibly accidentally releasing a powerful legendary Deviant Dromedan who was in imprisonment there. The thunder god had not  released Dromedan however the selfish and power hungry Druig had his own plans and he would go about unleashing the power Deviant psychic Dromedan. Druig, who had hoped to have used the Deviant as his own weapon. This plan backfired with Dromedan assuming control over Druig as soon as he was unleashed. Needing allies, Dromedan called upon two powerful beings by the names of Thunder and Tutinax, to aid his plans. Opposing the powerful Deviant trio were Thor and the Eternals. Thor managed to defeat his opponent Thunder, but the Deviants struggled against Tutinax, and the conflict was only ended when another Deviant by the name of Zakka teleported Tutinax to the future.
