When the mutants first came into existence, there was a lot of hate against them. Being considered unnatural or "freaks" many were left on the run for their lives. Unfortunately a lot of them were taken into captivity and were used as attractions, Seventy two was one of those people. Not even gaining a name of his own he was sold many times over to local circus's and eventually found a way to escape. However his life would always push him to being on the run.
