Campbell, Rory

Full Name: Dr. Roderick Campbell
Affiliation: W.H.O.
Previous Affiliations: Muir Island Research Center
Alternate-X Versions: Ahab (DoFP)
Codename Etymology: Pronounced kăm'bĕl [From "crooked mouth," cam "crooked," béul "mouth"], rôrē [From RUAIDHRÍ, ruadh "red," rí "king"].
Powers & History: None (human). A geneticist, Rory Campbell came to work at Muir Island while Excalibur was based there. During the time-rift when Captain Britain switched places with Phoenix III, Rory saw a future version of himself as Ahab, the Hound-master from the "Days of Future Past" timeline. He then lost a leg to his own laser grid interrogation system, and constantly wonders whether action or inaction will lead to the twisting of his soul. Most recently, he provided Sebastian Shaw with crucial information on the Legacy Virus. He may have been converted into Famine II by Apocalypse, although there is substantial confusion on this issue.
