1st Appearance: New Mutants #98

Feral escaped from The Morlocks and made her way through the underground tunnels that access the subbasement of the Xavier Mansion where she hoped to hide out and/or find protection. She snuck around the premises for awhile unnoticed(with the most powerful telepath on earth..AND the Shiar security systems?..UH HUHÉRIGHT!!) until she was discovered in the kitchen by Boomer(the least intelligent of them all..there's never a good editor around when you need 'em). She pleas for help as another intruder alarm goes off .Shatterstar has also arrived. Feral joins the team in defeating the Imperial Protectorate sent after Shatterstar and eventually finds herself a place on the team after she refuses to return with Masque to be dealt with by the other Morlocks. Cable protects her and lets her join the team, but not without problems(DuH..This is an X-title people what did you expect!!)

Feral is naturally aggressive (to say it kindly..hehe) which worked both for and against the X-Force team. Her savage fighting style was admired by Cable, but she was dangerous(Cool..hehe). On a training exercise, the team was to track and capture Feral, but she refused to go easily(I say onto thee againÉDuH!!). When Sam tagged her, she ripped his guts(YEAH!!!stincking hick..I wish Wolvie would do the same!!) out with no real remorse( Now people..i ask you what's there to remorse about!?!..the only thing I see wrong..is that she didn't kill him then and there!!). From that time on she was never totally trusted by her teammates and was often restrained from killing her opponents during battle (Darn... now that would have made the book interesting!).

The stress came to a boil when X-Force was sent by Cable to rescue Henry Peter Gyrich from the New Mutant Liberation Front led by Reignfire (*HURL*). Feral could not understand or accept saving one of the world's greatest mutant haters( me neither), so she decided to defect to the other side where there were no reservations about killing folks(Hmmm are they still recruiting..?). She remained with them until Reignfire was exposed( and Boy do many of us wish that piece of crap was ever revealedÉUgh) then she went into hiding.

The last appearance of Feral revealed a great deal more of her past in the pages of XFC 40 and 41. Her sister Thorrn was accused of murdering their mother, sister, brother and step-father(My she was busy wasn't she..) and was arrested by her former boyfriend Hidalgo(MEN!), now a NYC cop. Hidalgo believes her innocence and allows her to contact Cable for help to clear her name. They go looking for the real culprit - Feral(she was framed I tellya). They find her hiding out in their old neighborhood and she begins to tell her side of the story. Her sister and brother were merely freak accidents(suuure they were..), but her mother and step father were another story entirely!!

Her step - father, Harry Bellinger sexually and physically abused Thorrn and Feral and Feral quickly grew tired of it(uh oh). She murdered Harry in cold blood(AH he had it coming!). After his "disappearance", Feral's mother suspected that she might have had something to do with it, so, in anger, she went to the rooftop and killed all of Feral's Pigeons(double UH OH). Her pets were the only thing that made her happy, so you can guess what happened to mama next(she had it coming too!!). After spilling her beans, Feral attacks X-Force but Sam stops her(Grrr). She has not been seen since, but presumably she is incarcerated on murder charges in the NY penitentiary system (know their justice systemÉshe'll probably be out in a year on bail).

(personally I think Feral got a bum rap!! ...they both had it coming to them!! It was justifiable homicide I say!! They both committed a crime and got what was coming to them... YES KILLING PIGEONS... IS STILL MURDER!!).
