Taegukgi is a South Korean superhero and field leader of the [[Tiger Division (comics)|Tiger Division]], the country's superhuman response team, and is regarded as its greatest national hero.<ref name="Black Cat Annual vol. 2 #1">''Black Cat Annual'' (vol. 2) #1</ref> Due to exposure from the mystical Psylot Gem, Taegukgi possesses superhuman strength, durability, speed and stamina, flight, and the ability to shoot energy beams from his eyes.<ref name="Taskmaster vol. 3 #3" /><ref name="Black Cat Annual vol. 2 #1" /><ref name="Tiger Division #1">''Tiger Division'' #1</ref> Taegukgi's strength and powers are noted to be on par with [[Hyperion (character)|Hyperion]], [[Blue Marvel]], and the [[Sentry (Robert Reynolds)|Sentry]].<ref name="Black Cat Annual vol. 2 #1" /> Taegukgi also possesses superhuman longevity, as he still retains the health, appearance, and vitality of a young man in his prime well into the 21st century despite being born during the [[Korean War]].<ref name="Tiger Division #1" /> Taegukgi is fluent in both his native Korean and English.<ref name="Ghost Rider vol. 10 #14" /> Despite his strength and invulnerability, Taegukgi is highly susceptible to psionic abilities, including mind control, body possession, and psychic attacks.<ref name="Black Cat Annual vol. 2 #1" /><ref name="Ghost Rider vol. 10 #14" />
Orphaned as a baby in 1950 during the [[Korean War]], Tae-Won was adopted by a similarly orphaned young woman whom he saw as his ''[[ajumma]]''. Despite her best efforts, a young Tae-Won fell in with a group of thieves, which eventually became a criminal gang as they got older. In 1978, when the gang broke into a government facility to steal valuable materials, Tae-Won was exposed to energies created by the Psylot Gem, an [[Asgard (comics)|Asgardian]] artifact left behind in Korea by [[Loki (Marvel Comics)|Loki]] many years ago, which was being experimented on by the South Korean government. Instead of harming him, the Psylot Gem granted Tae-Won superhuman abilities. After his ''ajumma'' helped him control his powers and showed him the pain and misery inflicted upon civilians by the gang he created, Tae-Won vowed to use his powers to help people in need and to atone for his criminal past, eventually becoming the nation's greatest superhero, Taegukgi.<ref name="Tiger Division #1-5">''Tiger Division'' #1–5</ref>
When [[Taskmaster (character)|Taskmaster]] infiltrates Tiger Division's base to copy [[White Fox (character)|White Fox]]'s [[Kinesics|kinesic signature]], he is forced to flee when Taegukgi intervenes and nearly kills him with his heat vision. Despite this, Taskmaster still succeeds with his objective.<ref name="Taskmaster vol. 3 #3">''Taskmaster'' (vol. 3) #3</ref> As part of a coup, a criminal cult known as the Choi Faction employs Mongdal, a criminal with the ability to transfer his consciousness into the bodies of others, to possess Taegukgi and threatens to have him destroy [[Seoul]] unless their demands are met.

The Tiger Division is nearly defeated until their ally [[Black Cat (Marvel Comics)|Black Cat]] provokes Mongdal's consciousness into returning to his original body and kills him, freeing Taegukgi.<ref name="Black Cat Annual vol. 2 #1" />
Taegukgi and the Tiger Division are sent to recover the Psylot Gem when it is stolen from its storage unit and track the theft to the mysterious MTO Corporation. The true leader of MTO is revealed to be Min-Jae, Taegukgi's childhood best friend and former partner-in-crime, who reveals the truth behind the Psylot Gem. Despite the efforts of the Tiger Division, Min-Jae steals Taegukgi's powers and seals them back in the Gem. At this moment, Min-Jae's benefactor [[Doctor Doom]] arrives to take the Gem's powers for himself, but Taegukgi convinces Min-Jae to help fight against Doom. Taegukgi is able to reclaim his powers from the Gem, which is destroyed during the battle; Doom leaves empty-handed while Min-Jae flees. Taegukgi's relationship with his teammates becomes strained due to him not disclosing his past to them, but they forgive him when he opens up about his ''ajumma''.<ref name="Tiger Division #1-5" />
Taegukgi travels to [[Santa Cruz, California]], when the ghost of Wrenley Fischer, a telepathic serial killer who once terrorized Seoul until his death twenty years ago, resurfaces and begins killing again.

Taegukgi and Doom's Division break free from imprisonment and are surprisingly helped by White Fox, who was secretly supporting Sunfire's resistance.

Tai was like a mentor for the [[New Warriors]] in the first 25 issues of their first series.
Tai is an elderly [[Cambodia]]n mystic who was indirectly responsible for the formation of the New Warriors. She was born into a cult called the Dragon's Breath. Her people derive mystical energy from a well inside their temple that was a nexus into various alternate dimensions. The temple is constructed around the nexus point where vast amounts of mystic energy are constantly released. Throughout the centuries, Tai's people absorb the energy from the well. In a plan called 'the Pact', they devise a detailed program of interbreeding, the goal of which is to enable each successive generation to tap more energy from the well than its previous generation; eventually, one generation would use that power to rule the world. Tai's generation is actually able to harness the energies of the well, and is led to believe that they are the ones to rule the world. Tai refuses to share powers and slays everyone in the cult, except six maiden brides and a series of temple guards.<ref name="New Warriors #23–24">''New Warriors'' #23–24</ref>
During the [[Vietnam War]], a unit of American soldiers calling themselves the 'Half-Fulls' encounter the temple but are captured by Tai. Tai tells them the story of her people and that the six soldiers had to marry and procreate with the six maiden brides. All but one of them agree to do so (Daryl Taylor was already married).<ref name="New Warriors #23–24" /> After their tour, the soldiers return home to America with their new brides, while Tai remains in Cambodia. Tai marries her only daughter, Miyami, to an African American soldier named [[Andrew Chord]]. Miyami soon gives birth to two children: [[Silhouette (comics)|Silhouette]] and Aaron ([[Midnight's Fire]]). To prevent her children from being used as Tai's pawns, Miyami fakes their deaths as well as her own, and leaves her children to be raised in Manhattan's [[Chinatown, Manhattan|Chinatown]].<ref>''New Warriors'' #19–20</ref>
Chord, thinking his family is dead, becomes a mercenary and travels the world. Eventually, he arrives in Cambodia and renews his association with his mother-in-law. Together they return to America. Tai worries her son-in-law fears his place in the Pact is moot now that his son is dead. Tai urges Chord to resume his friendship with army buddy Daryl Taylor (the one who rejected the Pact). Chord does so and becomes godfather to Daryl and his six-year-old son Dwayne. Tai then demands Chord kill Daryl and his wife Melody; Chord does so, unwillingly, in front of Dwayne. Dwayne is then introduced to Tai and his memory is wiped.<ref name="New Warriors #25">''New Warriors'' #25</ref> Chord and Tai raise Dwayne and train him to be a crime fighter. They also manage Daryl's charitable organization, the Taylor Foundation, often using it to finance questionable activities around the world. Dwayne becomes [[Night Thrasher]] and is briefly part of a team with Tai's grandchildren Midnight's Fire and Silhouette. At the time, the three are unaware of the relevant biological relationship. Later, Night Thrasher finds the New Warriors. Tai influences the group from behind the scenes. In ''New Warriors'' #8, she bets the safety and security of the Warriors on a conflict with [[Emma Frost]]. Frost commands her own team of super-powered teens to bring back one of the Warriors, who used to be her student; however, Frost's team is defeated.<ref>''New Warriors'' 10</ref>
Tai hopes to sacrifice the New Warriors to the well instead of the super-powered members of the [[Folding Circle]] (the children born from the mating of the soldiers and the brides). Tai and Chord's illegal business dealings are exposed, and Chord attempts suicide rather than admit the truth. While in the hospital, his wife Miyami visits him. Tai discovers this and is enraged that her daughter had faked her death and the deaths of her grandchildren. Tai murders her daughter in a fit of anger. Tai also uses her power to heal Chord of his brutal injuries, though she is unable to completely restore him.<ref>''New Warriors'' #18–22</ref>
Tai later returns to Cambodia. She is soon followed by the Folding Circle, now led by the [[Left Hand (comics)|Left Hand]], a rogue-powered villain influenced by the energies of the well. The New Warriors also follow in an Avengers' [[Quinjet]]. Tai attempts to sacrifice both groups to the well. They work together to try and save each other, but it all comes down to Dwayne, who uses an [[Uzi]] submachine gun to injure and seemingly kill Tai. Both she and the Left Hand are sucked down into the well.<ref name="New Warriors #25" />
Since her death, Tai has appeared posthumously in stories involving time travel. In a storyline in ''[[Darkhawk]]'', Tai's granddaughter Silhouette is sent back in time to stop Tai from murdering Miyami.<ref>''Darkhawk'' #26–29</ref> In a storyline in the ''Night Thrasher'' comic book series, Silhouette is sent back in time to Tai's childhood, where she encounters Tai and her peers as children in the cult. The five-year-old Tai tells Silhouette she can send her home if Silhouette will murder one of her rivals. Silhouette refuses and murders her grandmother.<ref>''Night Thrasher'' #11–12</ref>

Tarot is able to generate animated constructs composed of tangible psionic energy based on the two-dimensional figures on the [[tarot cards]] she carries. She can create multiple human-sized figures and even massive flying constructs without any apparent strain. Tarot's psionic constructs are superhumanly strong and durable, resistant to physical damage, temperature extremes, and certain forms of energy. She later developed the ability to apply certain characteristics on the images in her cards upon herself, such as Death's shroud and scythe, thereby increasing her effectiveness in battle. These constructs are completely under Tarot's mental control and will dissipate on her command or if she is rendered unconscious. It is unknown if she is completely reliant on tarot cards to fuel her generative power, or if she can create constructs from other imagery.
Tarot also apparently possesses some degree of precognitive ability, being able to accurately predict events in the near or distant future through reading of her cards.{{Citation needed|date=October 2023}}

Temugin escapes and returns to the monastery, and a disappointed Mandarin wipes his mind of the incident.<ref>''Iron Man: Enter the Mandarin'' #1–3</ref>
After the Mandarin's death in a battle against [[Iron Man]], Temugin receives his [[Mandarin's rings|father's 10 rings of power]] and discovers that, for honor's sake, he must kill Iron Man so his father's spirit can find peace.<ref>''Iron Man'' (vol. 3) #89</ref> Luring Iron Man to his father's fortress, Temugin proves more than a match for Iron Man's mechanically enhanced strength.

Temugin later appears in ''MODOK's 11'' #4, wherein he has been contacted by the double-crossing [[Spot (Marvel Comics)|Spot]], who promptly hands over the weapon that [[MODOK]] had been planning to steal. In this appearance, Temugin speaks of the Mandarin as his "late father" and bears the rings, one of which he uses to imprison Spot in another dimension with nothing but money.<ref>''MODOK's 11'' #4</ref> In the following issue, the [[Puma (character)|Puma]] tears off at least one of his hands. However, it is possible that he retained at least half of the rings, as [[Tilda Johnson|Nightshade]], who used the rings on his lost hand, was not seen with them at the end of the story.<ref>''MODOK's 11'' #5</ref>
However, much later Temugin is seen among the ''[[Agents of Atlas]]'', appointed as a second in command, and possible replacement, for [[Jimmy Woo]], current head figure for the ''Atlas Foundation''. Now sporting a bulky prosthetic, Temugin initially comes into conflict with Jimmy Woo over what he perceives as Woo's cowardly behavior and pointlessly complicated planning. The two gradually become friends over the course of several battles, most notably versus Jade Claw.<ref>''Agents of Atlas'' #1–13</ref>
[[Sasha Hammer]] is his paternal half-sister.

For unexplained reasons, nearly dying in a frigid lake left Thorn unable to feel pain, allowing him to sustain severe injuries (such as multiple gunshots) without being deterred. Thorn's brush with death also eliminated his need for basic human necessities such as food, water, air, and protection from the elements, and made him repellent towards animals such as sharks.
===Reception of Thorn=== In a 2009 interview with [[Comic Book Resources]], illustrator [[Dale Eaglesham]] expressed fondness for the character, stating "I spent some time in the Punisher department from 93 to 95 and I really enjoyed working with Frank Castle. However, there's another Punisher-related character that I feel I have unfinished business with: Sal Carbone, the man they call Thorn. He went toe-to-toe with Castle and survived because he thinks he's already dead. He's insane, and he would actually make a great Punisher! Maybe I can talk [[Ed Brubaker]] into that one; I think he would love it."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Richards |first=Dave |date=7 February 2009 |title=NYCC: Eaglesham on his Marvel Exclusive Deal |url=http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=19910 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090210064058/http://comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=19910 |url-status=dead |archive-date=February 10, 2009 |access-date=10 February 2015 |website=comicbookresources.com |publisher=[[Comic Book Resources]]}}</ref>

Originally, Titannus was a [[Skrull]] who, lacking shape-shifting abilities, became one of the subjects of the [[Super-Skrull]] project, giving him enhanced strength and a healing factor that would allow him to recover from any wound. Leaving his world, he eventually arrives on the planet Trellion, whose inhabitants brainwash him to act as their agent. Believing that he was fleeing an oppressive ruler, he escapes with the woman he loves (against her will) and travels to Earth, seeking the aid of heroes to revolt against Trellion.<ref>''[[Marvel Team-Up]]'' (vol. 3) #12</ref> After his spacecraft crash lands in Japan, Titannus observes the heroes of Earth for several months and attempts to "gain their attention" by destroying [[Tokyo]], defeating the premier superhero of Japan ([[Sunfire (character)|Sunfire]]) and killing countless soldiers of the Japanese army.<ref>''Marvel Team-Up'' (vol. 3) #4–9</ref>
Sensing the disturbance, [[Doctor Strange]] assembles a new team of [[Defenders (comics)|Defenders]] to oppose the alien, consisting of [[Spider-Man]], [[She-Hulk]], [[Carol Danvers|Ms. Marvel]], [[Nova (Richard Rider)|Nova]], and [[Hulk]]. The team meets [[Wolverine (character)|Wolverine]] in Tokyo, where he is already attempting to fight Titannus. Titannus attempts to befriend them by recounting his brainwashed story, claiming that he had merely lost his temper when attacked by Sunfire, but Doctor Strange senses little truth in Titannus' words. Ultimately, the superheroes are unable to stop Titannus, who defeats the Hulk by absorbing his empowering gamma radiation, as well as breaks She-Hulk's left arm. When Titannus' beloved is woken up by Strange and Nova, the truth is revealed and Titannus, having been so dependent on his love for her, is driven to suicide by her rejection—apparently killing himself by crushing his own head. Spider-Man later speculates that she was angry at the failure of her peoples' plan to attack Earth's heroes.<ref name="Marvel Team-Up #13">''[[Marvel Team-Up]]'' (vol. 3) #13</ref>
However, Titannus' healing factor is so advanced that it allowed him to grow a new head, albeit giving him [[amnesia]]. Later, insane scientists from Tokyo take control of Titannus and order him to attack the United States, believing that Titannus had been part of a US attempt to conquer Japan. Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Ms Marvel, She-Hulk, Wolverine, [[Luke Cage]], and [[Captain America]] assemble and defeat Titannus, who is taken in by [[S.H.I.E.L.D.]], thanks to the new arrival of [[Crusader (Marvel Comics)|Crusader]], who distracts him by creating an illusionary reality where he killed all of his opponents. Meanwhile, Doctor Strange finds the people controlling him, and modify their technology to keep Titannus dormant.<ref>''[[Marvel Team-Up]]'' (vol. 3) #25</ref>

Laurie Tromette is a 19-year-old college student living in Vancouver when her X-gene first manifests. At first, her mutation takes no real form. She experiences hair loss, skin changes, and flu-like symptoms, but according to Cyclops, "nothing resembling anything." She becomes so distressed that she decides to commit suicide by jumping off of a building. In an effort to save Laurie's life, Hope jumps off the building with her—touching Laurie and activating her power of flight.<ref>''Uncanny X-Men'' #526 (2010)</ref> Laurie pledges to follow Hope and eventually moves to Utopia with the rest of the [[X-Men]].<ref name="GH4">''Generation Hope'' #4 (2011)</ref>

He is the nephew of [[Bolivar Trask]], the son of Donald Trask Jr., and the grandson of Donald Trask Sr. Trask is recruited by [[Cassandra Nova]] since the [[Wild Sentinels]] can only obey Donald's orders, but Nova is done copying all of his DNA and kills Trask due to not longer needing him.<ref>''New X-Men'' #114-115</ref>
==Larry Trask== '''Larry Trask''' is a character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. The character first appeared in ''[[Uncanny X-Men|X-Men]]'' #57 (June 1969) and was created by [[Roy Thomas]] and [[Neal Adams]]. He is the [[Mutant (Marvel Comics)|mutant]] son of the [[Sentinel (comics)|Sentinels]]' creator [[Bolivar Trask]].
At the age of five, Larry's mutant power of [[precognition]] manifests when he predicts his mother's death.<ref name="XMen59">''X-Men'' #59</ref> Soon after, he loses his older sister Tanya, a mutant time-traveler who becomes lost in the timestream.
Fearful of the "mutant menace", Bolivar crafts a medallion that blocks Larry's powerful visions of the future, as well as erases any memory of them.<ref name="XMen58">''X-Men'' #58</ref> As his son grows older, Bolivar enlists Larry's help in the creation of the first wave of Sentinels. Bolivar occasionally removes Larry's medallion so that he can secretly observe and record Larry's predictions about future mutants, and Larry accurately predicts the assassination attempt of Senator [[Robert Kelly (character)|Robert Kelly]].{{Volume needed|c=y|date=February 2019}}
Larry is skeptical of his father's hatred of mutants until the night [[Madame Sanctity]] returns to the past. Tanya hopes to change the future by stopping her father's creation of the Sentinels, but is thwarted by [[Rachel Summers]]. Rachel successfully prevents Larry from witnessing the psychic duel that ensues, but cannot hide the physical damage caused by the fight. This convinces Larry that dangerous mutants do exist.{{Volume needed|c=y|date=February 2019}}
Trask later blames the [[X-Men]] for his father's death, and uses Bolivar's notes to create a new, stronger wave of Sentinels. He is aided in his effort by Federal Judge Robert Chalmers, a friend of Bolivar's who knew Larry's secret.<ref name="XMen59" /> Trask creates a base for his Sentinels in the [[Southern Rocky Mountains|Colorado Rockies]], and orders robots to abduct and detain all known mutants. One of these mutants is [[Havok (character)|Alex Summers]] whom Larry gives a containment suit to control his unstable powers.<ref>''X-Men'' #57–59</ref> Chalmers becomes disillusioned with Larry's plans, and forcefully removes Larry's medallion, hoping that Larry would cease his attacks on mutants if he learned the truth about his own mutation. This, however, backfires; when a furious Larry orders the Sentinels to destroy all mutants, he is targeted for annihilation.<ref name="XMen58" />
The Sentinels are eventually outwitted by [[Cyclops (Marvel Comics)|Cyclops]], and fly into the sun (perceived by the Sentinels as the source of all mutations) to apparently be destroyed.<ref name="XMen59" /> Meanwhile, Larry has plunged into a state of catatonic shock, and Chalmers puts the medallion back on him to erase the knowledge of what had happened to him.<ref>''X-Men'' #60</ref>
The Sentinels later return from space and abduct the [[Scarlet Witch]] as part of an elaborate plan to prevent the birth of future mutants by [[Human sterilization|sterilizing]] humanity. Larry is abducted by [[Quicksilver (Marvel Comics)|Quicksilver]] who remembers Trask from when the former and Scarlet Witch were previously abducted by the Sentinels.<ref name="XMen59" /> Quicksilver removes Larry's medallion, restoring Larry's knowledge of a Sentinel base in Australia but also re-awakened Larry's precognitive abilities. He has a powerful vision of all-encompassing darkness that he interpreted to be the end of the world. The duo travels to the secret base, and Larry stops the Sentinels by revealing that the lead Sentinel was mutated during its time in space, causing the others to turn on it and destroy it, thus deactivating themselves. One of the Sentinels falls onto Larry and kills him. The black void Larry saw was not the end of the world; he had unknowingly predicted his own death.<ref name="Aveng102">''The Avengers'' #104 (October 1972)</ref>
Larry Trask is resurrected on [[Krakoa]]. Following the end of the [[Krakoan Age]], Larry is recruited to develop a team of Sentinels to apprehend mutants. Unbeknownst to his superiors, Larry develops a team of Sentinel cyborgs created from the nanotechnology in [[Juston Seyfert]]'s body rather than a team of traditional Sentinels. The Sentinels share the goal of protecting humanity, the directive given by Juston to his Sentinel companion.

He was described by ''Spider-Man'' writer [[Glenn Greenberg]] as a [[deus ex machina]] character with ill-defined powers: "no one – not the writers, not the editors – seemed to know who or what the heck Judas Traveller was.

Tyrannus is granted superhuman longevity and youth after drinking from the [[Fountain of Youth]] in [[Subterranea (comics)|Subterranea]]; he is dependent on this fountain to maintain his youth and immortality. He possesses various lingering [[psionic]] abilities after his merger with the cobalt "Flame of Life" in El Dorado, including telepathy, mind control of others, and the ability to drain the life force of others; these abilities are not demonstrated in later appearances. He is an extraordinary scientific genius that Bruce Banner has acknowledged as superior to himself. He masters the advanced technology of the [[Deviant (comics)|Deviants]], which he found in Subterranea, and makes further advances on it. Tyrannus has limited mystic knowledge of sorcery.
Tyrannus often uses ancient Roman weaponry (e.g., swords and spears), but also has access to weapons created by Deviant technology (including guns projecting various types of radiation) and other advanced technological weaponry. He has designed other devices based on Deviant technology and his own innovations, which are manufactured by Subterraneans under his supervision. These include teleportation devices, flying vehicles, and gigantic earth-borers.
