Nightmask (Adam Blackveil)

Adam, an artificial perfected human created by Ex Nihilo, is one of two people who were ascended by "The Last White Event," the other being Starbrand (Kevin Connor). Affected upon birth, he became Nightmask.[3] This abnormal White Event was hastily fired from the Superflow due to a catastrophic multiversal phenomenon known as "incursions." The Builders, ancients who had built the universal systems that blessed Nightmask, noticed their broken systems and attempted to stabilize the Multiverse by destroying the incursion points: Earth.[4] In wake of the new Builder threat,[5] Nightmask and Starbrand, as well as fellow Builder systems Ex Nihilo and Abyss, were recruited into the Avengers.[6] Following the Builder War, Nightmask, Starbrand, Ex Nihilo, and Abyss joined Sunspot's Multiversal Avengers to traverse the Multiverse and find out what was causing the Multiverse to collapse.[7] Their inquiry led them to the source of the incursions, the Ivory Kings a.k.a. the Beyonders, but the process caused Nightmask to cease to exist.[8][9] Nightmask returned to life when the Multiverse was restored,[10] and he enrolled in a college with Starbrand under the name Adam Blackveil,[11] until Starbrand's untimely death.[12]
