History

Early Life

Languish and Lifeforce used to work at Target together before Calamity, and were good friends. Veera, who was good friends with both of them, started dating with Lifeforce, and she eventually broke up with him. After they both became Epics and Lifeforce got his revenge on Veera, Languish joined up with his friend. Languish served Lifeforce, ensuring that no Epic could challenge him. Lifeforce began taking some of Languish’s blood to give himself the power to dampen other powers, and Languish tried to rebel against Lifeforce. When he tried to dampen him however, it seemed to not work, and Languish deduced that there was too much of his own blood inside Lifeforce.[3] After that he didn’t try to rebel again, and served Lifeforce faithfully, and was kept under heavy guard for his own protection.[4]
