Bio:
Unlike his fellow surviving Daemonite High Lords, Defile doesn't seek the destruction of mankind. He wants its ultimate corruption to obey his free will, or its death for resisting. For that, he has constantly plotted in the shadows of history. For example, he was the one to introduce gas bombs during the WWI. He usually maneuvers other influential people to do his bidding.

He put in motion a long time scheme by getting the 3 captured members of StormWatch Prime (Flashpoint, Nautika and Sunburst - captured by the MERCs during the Gulf War), and brainwashing them. As his puppets, they sent StormWatch classified information to pit the UN's organization against his long time foe : Emp and his WildCATs. By capturing Maul, brainwashing him to carry a nuke in a volcano, he got Battalion "killed" and aroused StormWatch's wrath against the WildCATs. By sending Mr. White to impersonate Maul in the midst of the WildCATs, he expected to kill Emp. This plan was exposed by Santini and his Black Razors. Since Maul had been captured by StormWatch after the Nuke incident, the WildCATs were now also angry with them and they start fighting each other.

That's when the third key to the Daemonite warship was uncovered. If the 3 keys could be reunited, and the warship found, the owner has access to the destructive potential of the Dreadnought. As a Daemonite High Lords, Defile had one, Helspont another, the third was the captain's. The race for the keys and the ship began. It involved all the WildStorm heroes (see Wildstorm Rising). Even StormWatch and the WildCATs worked together, because Void had a vision of the outcome of the crisis if the ship fell in the wrong hands. In the end, it appeared that the ship was the Kherubim's ; but it still held great firepower.

In the struggle for its control, Defile unleashed his StormWatch pets (minus Flashpoint who was in custody for having killed a MERC). Sunburst destroyed Spartan's body, then managed to break Defile's influence and was crippled by his wife Nautika.

After remaining out of the public eye for a while, Defile sent the assassin Innuendo to kill Savant. After that attempt failed he went underground once again.

He emerged once again after Stormwatch set up it's latest incarnation, Stormwatch P.H.D. (Post Human Division). He led an assault on the police headquarters where P.H.D. member John Doran was stationed. After fending off the assault, Doran and the others escaped. Unfortunately, Defile and his agents were later successful in destroying the station.

After Armageddon, Lord Defile brought an army of Daemonite to Los Angeles, home of the Wildcats. After a confrontation with the Wildcats, Defile agreed to a truce but his true motivations behind this agreement to the truce still have yet to be revealed.

  • World War 3: In this Marvel/WildStorm amalgamated universe, Defile lives in the Negative Zone and is allied with Annihilus & Dr. Doom.
