Lifeforce is a High Epic and the ruler of the flying city Lux. He uses his Epic powers to grant immortality to the denizens of his city. He and the city are currently in Texas to plunder what remains of it.

Attributes and Abilities

Powers

Lifeforce has the ability to grant what amounts to immortality to anyone, causing them be able to heal themselves. He heals wounds on himself or others, but at the cost of causing identical wounds to appear on someone else. He keeps a multitude of prisoners kept in glass tubes, on whom the wounds are inflicted on every time one of Lifeforce’s subjects heal. Despite being able to heal from any wound, Lifeforce still feels the pain of the injury every time.

Weakness

Lifeforce’s weakness is silver. People touching silver cannot be affected by his powers, and if silver touches Lifeforce, it negates his powers, including his healing.

History

Early Life

Languish and Lifeforce used to work at Target together before Calamity, and were good friends. Vera, who was good friends with both of them, started dating with Lifeforce, and she eventually broke up with him. After all three of them became Epics and Lifeforce got his revenge on Vera, Languish joined up with his friend. Languish served Lifeforce, ensuring that no Epic could challenge him.

Ruler of Lux

Lifeforce dreamed of creating a floating paradise, and so sought out Wingflare and Cloudbreaker, so that he could make his dream a reality. He locked Vera in the tunnels underneath his palace as punishment for her rejection. He filled her prison with gold, and tortured her through starvation, but using his healing powers to ensure she never died. His city established, Lifeforce had Lux pillage and loot cities throughout Texas, capturing prisoners for the tubes. Several Epics and groups of Epics challenged him, wanting to take over Lux for themselves. With Languish’s aid however, the challengers were all easily defeated. During this time, Lifeforce preformed numerous experiments and research with Parik, his chief scientist, trying to inject a serum into people to put Deathrise into them. He also worked to give himself the powers of other Epics, and successfully gave himself the power of the Epic Shiversting.

After Parik learned a lot of valuable information about Epic DNA from Jax, Lifeforce was intrigued by the boy, and ordered Wingflare to capture him during the events at Arlington. When Paige escaped being crushed by a large slab of pavement, she fought and killed a Raven multiple times. Lifeforce was impressed, and had her fight ten Ravens at once. When she defeated them, he made her into one of his Ravens.
