Bio:

The biker known as “Blaze” Allen lived a life of constant tragedy. His mother Nora was the victim of a cold case murder, his father was killed in stunt gone wrong, and his claims of having a younger brother were shrugged off as delusions of a troubled child as no records of the brother even existing could be found. An angry youth, Allen’s only source of happiness was his girlfriend Roxanne West, with whom he ran away when both were still in high school.

On a cross-country road trip, the couple stopped at a bar and befriended a gang of bikers. However, these bikers were in fact a Satanic cult and intended to sacrifice Allen and West to Satan in an occult ritual to obtain power.

Unbeknownst to all parties involved, Allen’s life had been a soul-shredding gambit to prepare his body for a demonic plan; from the murder of his mother, the death of his father, and the erasure of his brother from existence. When the ritual was performed, the gang was not met with Satan, but in actuality the demon Neron, the architect of Allen’s pain and misery in a bid to turn him into the host body for his son, Klarion the Black-Hearted, to bring about an apocalypse. The ceremony went wrong, however. Instead of Klarion, the vengeful fallen angel Etrigan interfered, disrupting his archenemy Neron’s plans and taking Allen’s body as his own. The merging briefly consumed Allen and transformed him into a demonic being engulfed in lightning and moving at super speeds. Overwhelmed by Etrigan’s insane hunger for vengeance, Allen massacred the bikers and the patrons of the nearby bar, but only managed to stop when West was almost in danger at his hands.

Allen managed to use his love for West to overpower Etrigan’s will, demanding to make a deal with him. He agreed to be host to him, but refuses to allow harm to come to West, her family, or anybody else he disagreed to be deserving of Etrigan’s wrath. Etrigan half-heartedly agreed to these terms and Allen disappeared into the night.

Since then, all across the world criminals, killers, and especially those in the thrall of Neron’s influence had been found gruesomely murdered in unusual ways. Others simply vanished without a trace with the magical community at large believing these victims were sent to a pocket hellscape known as the Speed Force. From these accounts was born a modern urban legend; they were found guilty of sin and died at the hands of the electrified Speed Demon.
