[edit] Fictional character biography
Little is known of the past of the mutant known as Rem-Ram apart from that he is from Antwerp in Belgium[1]. He is discovered by Fabian Cortez, who manipulates the boy into joining the Acolytes[2]. Rem-Ram is manipulated into using his powers against the X-Men specifically Xavier. Xavier's natural telepathy makes him resistant to Rem-Ram's powers. His dreams are not affected directly, only altered slightly.
However, Fabian boosts Rem-Ram's powers and he, Xaiver and the X-Men all become linked. This awakens Xaiver to the nature of the situation. The X-Men are directed to fight the Acolytes. During the confrontation, Rem-Ram is again ordered to attack Xaiver. He does not wish to, fearing the pain that would result. In anger, Cortez attacks Rem-Ram, calling him a traitor. Rogue saves Rem-Ram.
Some of the Acolytes ask for asylum, which Xaiver refuses.
[edit] Genosha/The Collective
Rem-Ram later moves to the mutant-haven island of Genosha. Cassandra Nova, the genetic twin of Professor Charles Xavier, uses a skyscraper-sized Sentinel to attack the island. Sixteen million people, including Rem-Ram, die that day.
The Collective, a mysterious being with dozens of super-powers itself, is being hunted by the New Avengers. They come to Genosha on their search and encounter zombies, including Rem-Ram's reanimated form.
[edit] Powers and abilities
Rem-Ram is able to expand the subconscious mind of those around him, sending them into a dream state where he can scan and manipulate the repressed thoughts found in their minds.
