Biography
The Verger was a mutant who lived beneath the ruins of New York City in the latter half of the 40th century. He was a high-ranking religious leader among the mutant community, and possessed the ability to project his thoughts directly into the minds of others. Although he was more than capable of physically speaking, his evolved persona preferred communication through telepathy. He was the first mutant encountered by John Brent after he and Nova found their way into the underground city. He was alone in the cathedral worshipping at the altar of the Divine Bomb. He ordered Brent to be taken for interrogation.
During the invasion of their city by the gorilla army, the Verger was shot dead by Jaffe, the young son of Marcus, whom Ursus had promised would find revenge for the death of his father.
