David North: The former Stasi agent first came to the notice of the X-Men after his Weapon X conditioning broke and he found himself fleeing Omega Red, vague memories of Logan driving him to seek asylum at the school. He disappeared after Omega Red was defeated, casting off his true identity as Christophe Nord and becoming David North, maverick agent, before resurfacing again in early 2009. Again he needed help from the X-Men, as Daniel Lyman had double crossed him and activated the Shiva protocols, a failsafe used by Weapon X in the event of an agent gone rogue. With the help of Betsy Braddock and X-Force, North was able to "deactivate" the conditioned agents sent after him and found himself being offered a job with X-Force. In September 2009 he went deep undercover in Europe, for an unspecified amount of time, seeking information on mutant weaponisation programs.
