History

Ocelot's Account

(The following is a lie told to Victor by Ocelot.)

When he was twenty, Juan Rios signed up for the military. During his service he met and fell in love with Eva Lopez.He left the military so that he could marry her. He changed his name so that the military couldn't track him down. They had two children, Victor and Tyson. Years later Tyson joined the military and Victor went back to Puerto Rico. A few months later Juan and Eva found an injured man and brought him to their house. They nursed him back to health, but found out that he was a mercenary. So the mercenary, Ocelot, killed Eva and wounded Juan. Juan was then knocked out and taken by Ocelot. When Juan woke up Ocelot told him that he was going to be his new experiment. Then Ocelot put Juan under heavy sedation. After Juan came to he was changed dramatically, he no longer had a human form and he was given powers. He tried to escape but he couldn't move and he was then brainwashed by Ocelot.

New Life

Once Vick woke up he still had memories of his family, but now he hated them. A mission briefing left by Ocelot told Vick that he was Project Warlord. Warlord soon found out that Tyson had become Crimson Shadow so he went after him. Warlord found Crimson Shadow in China near a monastery, so he blew it up. He couldn't find Tyson so he left China. Warlord then used his newfound power to lure out Tyson, but he created a paradox. Warlord was able to make the paradox only affect Crimson Shadow. Warlord fought Tyson once he showed up. Warlord then killed him after a short battle and cast a spell to keep Tyson from coming back to life. One year later Warlord created an army to take over an the destroy the world. While his army was conquering, Warlord found that Crimson Shadow had come back to life. Warlord tried to aid his army but it was destroyed. Warlord was then grabbed by Tyson and thrown into space. The two then fought. The battle ended when Warlord was blasted into the sun by Tyson.

Rebirth

Warlord did not die when he was blasted into the sun because he made a shield around himself. He stayed in space and cast a spell on himself. The spell caused him to die, but it would also cause him to be reborn as a stronger being. Ten years later Warlord was reborn in a new, stronger form. Warlord then brought his army back to life and he made them stronger. Soon afterwards he went to Earth and was attacked by Crimson Shadow and an army of super heroes. Warlord was again defeated by Crimson Shadow, but he managed to get to a safe place.

Return

Warlord came back when he found out that Tyson's powers were futher mutating. Warlord found Tyson and captured him. He experimented on Tyson and made an evil clone,Onslaught. Warlord then released them both so that they could fight each other. Warlord wanted to see the clone's abilities so he had the clone blow himself up to kill Tyson. They both came back to life and Tyson fled. Warlord ordered Onslaught to go after Tyson but he refused. The clone left before Warlord could attack him. A few months after Warlord went to Ricardo's high school and attacked him. Some heroes came to Ricardo's rescue, including Crimson Shadow, and Warlord was overwhelmed. He was defeated and sent to the Negative Zone, but he grabbed Crimson Shadow and took him. They fought, but they were getting weaker. Warlord was still stronger than Tyson so he had the upper hand. Warlord almost won, until Tyson was pulled out of the Negative Zone. Warlord cast a spell to teleport himself out of the Negative Zone. Soon afterwards he was attacked by his son, Captain X. Warlord fought back and destroyed Captain X's Asguardian armour. He sent a blast towards Captain X, but he reflected it with his shield and the blast killed Warlord. Before Warlord died he cast a rebirth spell and was brought back, but somewhere in space. Warlord is now searching for his family so that he can finally kill them.

The Symbiote Saga

While searching for his family, Warlord came across a small meteorite. He knew that it contained a dormant alien. He took it back to his lab so that he could identify the specimen.
