Ch'vayre


Real Name: Unknown
Affiliation: None
Relatives: Luminesca (sister, deceased)
Alternate-X Versions: None
Codename Etymology: Pronounced sh'və'rē [Possibly derived from chivalry, Old French, chevalier: "knight"].
Powers & History: Size-shifting, with associated gains in mass and strength. Ch'vayre was first seen in "The Adventures of Cyclops and Phoenix" Ltd. Series as the prelate of Apocalypse 2000 years in the future. He was a giant of a man, with quite a few bionic enhancements. He betrayed his master and tried to train the young Stryfe to be better than the Chaos-Bringer he was intended to be. A younger Ch'vayre appeared in issues of Cable as the emmissary of Sanctity, sent from 2000 years in the future to force Cable to fulfill his destiny and battle Apocalypse. After leading the Hellfire Club to Apocalypse's lair in the hopes of forcing Cable to battle the Eternal One, Ch'vayre was pushed into one of Pocy's transformation chambers by Sebastian Shaw. This would explain how the older Ch'vayre ended up back in the era of his birth, and with bionics. The chamber will keep him alive and enhance him, as it did with Apocalypse's Herald. It will also probably brainwash him, which explains why he served the High Lord, at least for a while. However, the Phoenix LS confused the issue even further, by showing Ch'vayre as a young prelate in the service of Apocalypse. He has a size-changing ability, and gets larger permanently every time he uses it. Exactly what this character's timeline is now is uncertain.
