[edit] Ficitional character history

A native from France, Bevatron was recruited to the Hellfire Club's junior team of mutants by the villainous White Queen. After suffering the loss of Firestar, Bevatron was picked up as the Hellions new energy projector. His first mission, and the only one he appeared as part of, required the Hellions to fight the New Warriors to vie for Firestar's returned allegance. During the mission, Bevatron was badly wounded when he fell from a rooftop while battling Firestar. The Hellions were defeated by the New Warriors.

Soon after, Emma threw a party which the Hellions, as well as the X-Men Gold team, attended. It was there that Trevor Fitzroy—a member of the villainous group known as the Upstarts—crashed the party with the goal of killing Emma in order to gain points within the group. The Hellions were mere formalities: most of the team, including Bevatron, were drained of their life energies in order to fuel Fitzroy's teleportation portal in Uncanny X-Men #282 (1991).

[edit] Powers

Bevatron's mutant abilities allow him to focus the excess bio-electricity in his cells through his fists as electric discharges.

[edit] Notes

Bevatron made a postmortem appearance in the 1997 Annual of Generation X. However, this was just a trick played by the demon D'Spayre to agitate Emma Frost.

[edit] Etymology

A "bevatron" is an award-winning particle accelerator which began operating in 1954 and discovered the antiproton. It works by forcing particles into a fixed target, much the same way Bevatron focuses his bio-energy reserves.
