Little has been revealed. He has been mistaken for Horus and Orpheus. Has devoted himself to composing and playing music, and has been a friend to his fellow Eternal Ikaris.
He accompanied Ikaris in his battle with Kro, and followed Kro and Thena to Deviant Lemuria. In Lemuria, Khoryphos met a Deviant woman, Yrdisis, with whom he fell in love. For a time, the couple smuggled innocents from Lemuria. He was unable to save Yrdisis from the Weird Sisters (minions of Maelstrom), but the Fantastic Four healed him from Charm's poison.
