SPOILERS BEYOND THIS POINT
Bio:
Dingo, an I.O. experiment, was stolen by IRA terrorists. They trained him to use his natural abilities for their best interests. After an unknown amount of time with the IRA, Dingo left or escaped to find others like himself. He eventually met Bloodmoon and the Kindred, and joined their group, being the closest thing to family that he could get. This was during the time when Bloodmoon was plotting to get revenge on Backlash.

Dingo first met Backlash when he interfered with one of Slayton's attempt to release Taboo from a FBI detention's center ; his mission was to plant a bug so Bloodmoon could track Backlash. As Bloodmoon's Kindred made their move against Backlash and his crew, Dingo came to disagree with their methods, particularly taking a young girl (the then powerless Crimson) as hostage. He turned against his teammates and freed Crimson. He then had no choice but to go into hiding, since he didn't wish to side with Backlash either.

Dingo then resumed his search for other Kindreds - the closets thing he found was Greymalkin, another human/animal experiment. But he wasn't a Kindred, as Dingo first thought. In the fight where he tried to calm down the human beast, Dingo lost an eye, and was rescued by Backlash, working for PSI to deal with such threats as Gramalkin (thus walking on I.O.'s toes as far as they were concerned).
Dingo stayed with Backlash this time, and fought in the first battle against the D'Rhan. But not being the kind to stay in one place for long, he left them while they were going for WildCATs' help, shortly before the creation of WildCore.


Some years later, Dingo helped Grifter & Backlash destroy another Kindred dictatorship on Caballito Island. Afterwards, Dingo remained on the island to help teach the Kindred to adapt to their powers and to the world.
