Biography[]
Chad Davis served in the United States Army before sustaining debilitating injuries. He was offered a second chance when A.I.M. approached him with an offer to restore his body with a gene-controlling process known as Extremis. Davis accepted the offer.
Although he was pleased with the new life Extremis had given him, Davis grew increasingly concerned about its side-effects and procured a file containing information on himself and other Extremis test subjects, which he took with him to his parents' home town of Rose Hill, Tennessee. Before Davis could do anything with the file however, the Extremis within him went critical and killed him, incinerating another five innocent bystanders in his vicinity.[2]
Powers[]
- Artificially Enhanced Physiology: After getting an injury while fighting with the United States Army, Davis sought out help to heal his injury. He eventually found Aldrich Killian and Extremis. Extremis allowed him to heal his injuries, but he couldn't control the power to generate heat.
- Regenerative Healing Factor: Hosts of Extremis had the ability to withstand multiple injuries and regrow limbs. The serum helped him heal the debilitating injuries he suffered while in the United States Army. However, the Extremis within him eventually went critical and killed him.
- Heat Generation: As Extremis healed his body, it also gave him the ability to generate heat. However, his body rejected Extremis, causing his body to explode, killing him and five other people.
