	Terrence is the son of a famous african-american martial artist. His father was killed when he was just a child. Raised by his godfather, a descendant of the famous Wong Fei-Hung, he returned to his hometown of Chicago, opening a small medical practice. Upset by the massive amounts of corruption in Illinois, he disguised himself as the "Black Monkey", and fought corruption by himself. Becoming something of a folk hero to the people of Illinois, the Posthuman suffered a major popularity hit when she apprehended him for breaking her code.

	A life-sucking alien parasite inextricably bound inside the body of an innocent young girl, the creature known as Typhon has been a prisoner in one form or another for most of its existence. Originally brought to Earth aboard a crashed alien spaceship, the creature was accidentally released when the human scientists assigned to study it foolishly breached its containment capsule. The parasite wasted no time in possessing the body of the head researcher, but soon discovered that the elderly host body could not withstand the strain of its presence, and soon began to deteriorate. On the run from government forces and in dire need of a new host, the alien leapt into the first healthy body it happened upon - a young girl named Cheryl Kynes, who was on her way home from a party late one evening. For reasons that have yet to be fully understood, their metabolisms 'locked' during the merging process, leaving host and parasite permanently bonded to one another and impossible to separate without killing both organisms. Confused and enraged, the composite being rampaged through the surrounding communities, glutting itself upon the life energies of anyone unfortunate enough to cross its path. The involvement of local superhero groups only made the situation worse, as the parasite soon discovered that it could temporarily assimilate their powers by draining their life force. For nearly a week, the monster - dubbed 'Typhon' by the media - cut a bloody swath across the American mid-west, until the Posthuman (who's technologically derived powers were immune to the parasite's draining abilities), finally halted its rampage in a vicious battle that devastated nearly a third of Olathe, Kansas.<br>

	Typhon now spends much of its time locked away in solitary confinement within the deeper layers of Isolate Island, fluctuating between sudden fits of violent rage and extended periods of near-catatonic dormancy. To be surrounded by so many superhumans - so close, yet perpetually beyond its reach - is maddening for the parasite, and it dreams of the day when it will finally break free of its cage and sup upon the vital energies of both its captor and its fellow inmates.<br>

	When the parasite is dormant or conserving energy, Typhon appears to be a slender young woman between the ages of thirteen and fourteen years old, with long, somewhat unkempt black hair, pale skin, and dark, haunted circles beneath her inhuman gold eyes - the only outward sign of her infestation while in this form. When the parasite assumes control - usually in preparation for combat or feeding - the host body rapidly mutates into a scaled, sinuous, lamprey-mouthed horror, with dripping fangs, writhing tentacles, and razor-edged talons.

	The entity known as Feign first came to public attention during a string of brutal murders, targeted at prominent members of Chicago's organized crime syndicates. Despite exhaustive forensic investigations, police were unable to turn up any DNA or fingerprints at the crime scenes, and eyewitness accounts only served to raise further questions. In nearly every instance, witnesses described the killer as either a well-known media celebrity, or some character from popular fiction (one witness claimed to have seen a Klingon fleeing into a dark alleyway, before disappearing). Police, media and local superheroes quickly took an interest in the case, though it was not until one undercover police officer caught sight of a call-girl transforming into a monster from a recent horror film that the involvement of a shapeshifter was suspected. Attempts to uncover details on the assassin's identity turned up a code name - Feign - but little else, and all efforts to trap the creature failed, often spectacularly, when members of the sting team were copied and replaced. As the murders expanded to include members of the superhero community, the Posthuman finally decided to involve herself directly in the matter. Correlating data from the previous murders, the Posthuman was able to identify a pattern to the attacks and, from this, extrapolate who Feign's next targets were most likely to be. Dispatching an army of Cases to the relevant locations, she eventually succeeded in flushing out the shapeshifter, subduing the creature with sonics and shock nets, before transporting it to Isolate Island for study and imprisonment.<br>

	Despite an exhaustive battery of tests, the Posthuman has had little luck unraveling the secrets behind Feign's origins. Feign itself appears to have few coherent memories of its own past - a possible side effect of continually immersing itself in the identities of others. A quiet, inoffensive inmate, it has thus far been content to wait patiently, watching attentively for the any opportunity for escape. That opportunity, it seems, has finally arrived...
