Biography[]
Locus was a member of the race of genetically engineered human offshoots known as the Inhumans. She lived in the city of Attilan on Earth's moon and was a member of the Inhuman Royal Guard. As was the custom with all Inhumans, Locus underwent terrigenesis and developed the ability of echolocation.
When Maximus seized control of the throne, the Royal Family were forced into exile and fled to Earth. Maximus sent the Inhuman Royal Guard, under the leadership of Auran, to Hawaii to sanction them.
Upon arriving on the island of Oahu, the group began tracking down the refugee known as Gorgon. The group tracked the location of Gorgon's comlink to a bunker, but Gorgon and his new commando allies were waiting to ambush them. [1]
Later, the Inhuman Royal Guard caught up with Black Bolt and Medusa. During the fight, Mordis accidentally ignited an open natural gas container, causing an explosion, which greatly injured everyone who was close by, including Locus. [2]
