History:
Apocalypse's first attempt at creating the Horseman, Famine. An ancient Egyptian, Gah Lak of Tus was a mutant with a siphoning ability, he could siphon off the lifeforce of other mutants and humans around him. However, he had little conscious control of this ability and usually only siphoned off enough energy of those around him to boost his own energy. When Apocalypse arrived in his village and raized the place to the ground, culling for any mutant or "fit" survivors, Gah Lak was the only survivor. Instinctively, he attacked and siphoned off Apocalypse's abilities and lifeforce. Instead of cowering in fear or outright killing Gah Lak Tus, Apocalypse subdued him by explaining what that he himself was a god and that he had searched for Gah Lak Tus. Apocalypse experimented on him and enhanced his abilities to the point that he could feed off of anything.
Gah Lak Tus's powers grew to an unbelievable level, putting him on par with cosmic powers. Apocalypse realized that his Famine would destroy the world and absolutely nothing, including himself and their own solar system would survive. Apocalypse attempted to detain him, but Gah Lak Tus's abilities had grown with every feeding. Apocalypse was gravely injured and could not openly defeat him. Instead, Apocalypse groveled and begged to serve him, but secretly built a forcefield to cut him off from incoming energy. After Famine was subdued, Apocalypse couldn't destroy him without risking feeding him more energy. Inside the containment cylinder, Gah Lak Tus became weak and fell into a dormant state. Apocalypse sent him into space, believing that he would end up in the sun.
However, his trajectory took him to another solar system where that sun's solar storm cracked his containment cylinder, freeing him. Starving, he devoured worlds, gaining yet more powers and minions. Silver Surfer
One of his many abilities include a limited manipulation of matter and a nearly unlimited ability to manipulate energy. Though most energy he absorbs goes to fuel his great appetite.
Skrulls
Plot:
NPC Gah Lak Tus is coming to our world. Is he looking for revenge or just food? Either way, he'll be destroying the Earth unless he can be stopped. There will also be minions.
People will have to choose whether to oppose him or serve him. Villains and Heroes and others in between or simply neither will have to work together or against each other.
Rewards:
Mentions in the Daily Bugle and others to be announced later.
