Genis-Vell is the cloned son of Captain Marvel and Elysius. His growth was accelerated and false memories were implanted so he would be old enough and mature enough to face his enemies quickly. He was made to believe that he was the son of Starfox. He was given the Nega-Bands of his father and took the name "Legacy," and he voluntarily chose the power, although slightly forced when he and his mother were attacked. It was some time before he gained a true understanding of what it meant to be a hero.
