Background

True Background

Plague was born outside of Chesapeake. When he was very young, a large Soul attack happened on his town that caused him to lose his right eye. From then on, he made it a goal to stop further Soul attacks in any way possible. He met Famine when he was very young once she moved to his town, and the two became very close shortly afterward. In his mid teens, Plague met Death and War when they saved him and Famine from a small Soul attack. Death and War quickly recruited Plague and Famine, and the Four Horsemen were then born. Around the time that the Elves were going to found the Agency, War found his way into a deal with them in order to take over the founding for themselves. Plague then became one of the founders of the Agency despite not really being involved. He became the strategist of the team and helped move the Agency towards the Gems. Shortly after Violet joined prior to becoming a Master Reaper, Plague became close with him and learned about his idea for the Horror Experiments. Plague was enamored with the idea since he figured that he could get back at Souls and become more powerful by using them, as well having an interest in the scientific side of things. Because of this interest, Plague helped get Violet into the position of Master Reaper so he could start the Experiments in secret. Plague was the first “true” Horror, as he was the first to be given the Horror solution that actually worked. However, because of the fact that Violet wanted to learn about the long-term effects of not taking the Purity pills, Plague had to stay next to Famine constantly so that she could be his source of Purity instead. Over his time in the Agency, Plague didn’t do too much due to not really being a fighter and also being very young. Plague died during the Four Horsemen fight against Scarlett due to Famine dying before him, and then him dying due to not having a source of Purity to keep the extra Soul in check. After dying, his body was kept in the Agency, where he was revived 24 years later after Violet figures out Soul Revival. Violet was testing it out for the first time, and he chose Plague to test it out. Plague woke up thinking of Famine, and as such, decided to figure out a way to revive Famine since he thought that if he was revived, Famine could be revived. He then started working with Connor to figure it out. During his time still in the Agency, Plague spent his time alone and trying to work out revival on his own. He left with Connor shortly after they died, with Plague finding Chill abandoned around 2005. After finding and taking in Chill, who he recognized was a Child of Death due to being a Rift-Breaker, Plague set out to find Agencies and laboratories to try and get information about revival. Around early 2027, Plague founded SWAP, or Societies Without Agencies Program, in order to destroy Agencies and possibly find out about revival in the process.
