History
Erg was a member of the Morlocks who was able to absorb all forms of energy and project them in blasts from his left eye, which he called his "electric eye".
Erg was one of the few Morlocks to survive the Marauders' attack during the 'Mutant Massacre'. He was also one of the first mutant to seek a safe haven at the Xavier Institute following M-Day, when most mutants lost their powers. Erg, Mammomax, and Peepers were running from members of the murderous Sapien League. They had the institute in sight when they were taken down by a shock grenade and tasers. The Leper Queen ordered her men to kill them now. The League members set up three St. Andrew's crosses (which are "X" shaped) with braces to keep the crosses upright. Erg was tied to one of the crosses. Gasoline was poured on and a lit match tossed. Erg regained consciousness when the lower legs of the cross were blazing. He would have died if he hadn't been yanked off by Wolverine, who had been sitting in the Xavier estate woods, letting Colossus sketch him.
It was Erg's idea to have a "198" flag on the grounds. He claimed he had an uncle, unnamed, who was a Hell's Angel and that the Hell's Angels wear a 1% badge because the Media said it was just one percent of bikers who caused the trouble when a biker gang tore up a town called Hollister back in the 1940s.
He was one of a few mutants who attacked Sentinel Squad O*N*E (Office of National Emergency) because they wanted to leave the Xavier estate. Mister M ended that fight.
Erg is also one of the unfortunate mutants who accepted having an electronic tag inserted in order to be allowed to go out on a supervised group trip to Salem Center. Dr. Cooper told the mutants that the tags were "...a harmless tracking device, inserted under the skin with a simple and painless surgical process." That wasn't true, as Erg figured out too late. Later on, Mister M took the liberty of freeing the chipped mutants of their devices.
