Amalgam of: Niles Caulder and Cable

A time-traveler from a bleak apocalyptic future, the cybernetic mutant Niles Cable plans on manipulating key events in the present to prevent his dark future from becoming a reality.

Knowing that he would need help in his crusade, Cable recruited a team of mutant outcasts to aid him, and dubbed them the X-Patrol. With his future knowledge, he knows that X-Patrol will become heroes of legend, but also knows that they are fated to die.

However, with each successful X-Patrol adventure, Niles' "past" changes more and more, making it less likely that his future world will ever come to be.

Cable was crippled in the X-Patrol's battle with Doctor Doomsday, and was consigned to a high-tech hover chair. However, during the X-Patrol's encounter with Brother Brood, Cable was visited by the spirit of Raveniya the Healer and was restored the use of his legs.
