Powers and Abilities

Blaster was able to fly and fire beams of force.

History

When the mutants left Earth to avoid persecution, just prior the Martian invasion in the 20^th Century, the exodus eventually led them to a habitable planet they named Haven. Over time the number of mutants dwindled as more and more of the births resulted in baseline humans, and the mutants became an elite ruling over the humans with an iron hand, with Rancor the undisputed leader of the mutants.

A resistance developed among the humans, and when the mutants eventually tracked them down, they discovered that one of their own, Bear, was collaborating with them. They killed Bear and the other resistance members they found at the meeting. They were soon contacted by the Guardians of the Galaxy, who had just located Haven, while searching for the long-lost mutants.

Rancor and her lieutenants were suspicious of the newcomers but met with a few of them. When they discovered that other Guardians were meeting with the underground resistance, Rancor attacked them, ordering the mutants to put down the revolting humans.

In the attempt to quash the rebellion, Blaster was shot and killed by rebel Giraud, who would later become the host for the Phoenix.

Personality

A bully, Blaster enjoyed pushing the humans around, and shared the arrogance of the other members of Rancor’s Lieutenants.

DC Universe History

The planet which became known as Haven was originally a prison planet for super-villains from Earth, where these unwanted were abandoned to their own devices. A number of the more powerful escaped, but the others were left, and when events on Earth caused the influx of new ’immigrants’, they were completely isolated. A society developed with the super-powered becoming the ruling class, and this continued down the centuries, even as the numbers of the powered diminished.

When they were eventually contacted by the UP, the rulers violently rebuffed offers to return to Earth, despite the normals among them wanting to leave. When the rebellion got out a request for help, the UP sent a squad of Legionairres, who deposed Rancor and her lieutenants, the surviving members of whom escaped.
