[edit] Fictional character biography

Hungan is an African witch doctor who once was worshipped by a small tribe of Kenyans. He reigned over the tribe until Storm drove him out, and was proclaimed the tribe's Goddess. Ten years later Hungan regained control of the tribe after Storm joined the X-Men, but sought revenge against her for being usurped initially. Hungan and his elite tribesman arrive at the X-Mansion, escaping with Storm as his prisoner. He confined Storm in a small box, triggering her severe claustrophobia in the process.

Hungan captures her will (possibly meaning her soul) into his scepter, giving him the ability to control her body. The X-Men eventually located Hungan and his tribesmen but he uses the mind-controlled Storm to attack them. Storm's nephew, Spyke uses his powers to shatter the crystal atop Hungan's scepter, releasing Storm from his control. Angrily, Storm engulfs the Hungan in a force of wind that threw him into the sea. Afterwards Hungan's tribe disappears into the mist.

[edit] Powers and abilities

Hungan's power came from his scepter, with which he is able to perform sorcery. He is also able to steal peoples will and control their bodies with his scepter.
