Story: The being known as Pagan was born on Papua, New Gunea. His father was an American colonel sent there to conduct experiments in chemical warfare, and his mother was a local girl. The girl's father disapproved of the relationship and put a curse on the colonel. Whether it was the curse or the work with dangerous chemicals that was the cause, has not been determined, but the child they had was lizard like and believed to be cursed. The father fled, leaving only his dog tag behind. The word Pagan was scrawled on the dog tag by his mother and was mistakenly believed to be his name. It was later discovered that his name was Zarej [2].

Pagan lived in the jungle until he was about 20 years old. The consistent rumors of the demon in the woods, made StormWatch send out a team, and they caught the creature [2]. He was taken to a StormWatch facility and apparently trained and ended up becoming a StormWatch operative [1].

Pagan stayed with StormWatch, until Henry Bendix reorganized the teams and fired most of the operatives [3].


Skills & abilities: Enhanced strength and agility. Pagan also has some type of camouflage ability. It has not been revealed if it is partial invisibility or high-end camouflage.
