[edit] Fictional character biography

Not much is known of the mutant known as Murmur apart from that he was mutated into pseudo-vampiric form by Emplate. He then joined a team that Emplate gathered to torment Generation X, including Bulwark, Vincente, and DOA. In an uncharacteristic move, Emplate not only recruited mutants for his team but a human as well: a woman named Gayle Edgerton from Generation X member Chamber's past. When Chamber's powers first manifested he had unintentionally paralyzed Gayle and Emplate offered her a chance for revenge, turning her into one of his vampiric minions as well. They were successful in capturing the young mutants, but M had telepathically called for help and it was answered by the X-Man Bishop. Vincente and Murmur teamed up to try and defeat the him, but when Murmur saw that he would soon be defeated, he fled along with Bulwark. With Penance's realigment of alliances they were successful in stopping the team.

[edit] Powers

Completely wrapped in bandages, Murmur could open teleportation portals in space within his line of sight, had enhanced strength and durability (like all of the Emplate minions) and had a large mouth in chest.

[edit] Notes

In Generation X #57, a character with a similar mummified appearance—but vastly different powers—named Wrap is with Emplate's gang. They attack the Massachusetts Academy to, once again, try and recapture Penance but their attempts are foiled. In the process, a building blows up and the M Twins are knocked free from the Penance body.

There is a member of Hellbent known as Murmur. He had a completely black appearance and was very pliable. He first appeared and was killed in the same issue, Moon Knight vol. 3 #50, after failing to capture bloodline for Seth the Immortal.
