Azazel claims that many years ago an ancient horde of demonic humanoid
mutants from biblical times called the Neyaphem were in an epic battle with a
group of angelic xenophobic mutants, named the Cheyarafim. The Cheyarafim
were victorious in the battle and banished the "demons" to an alternate
dimension for all eternity. The Neyaphem's leader, Azazel, was the only one
who was able to breach the dimensional void for brief periods of time due to
his teleportation powers. His only hope to return to Earth was by
impregnating women because his children are linked to his dimension.
阿薩佐主張很古老的時代就已經有一大群像人形惡魔的變種人，叫做Neyaphem（下稱惡魔
族），並且當時曾和一群天使型變種人Cheyarafim（下稱天使族）進行過史詩級大戰。大
戰的結果，天使族贏得勝利，並且將惡魔族永久放逐到另一個次元。惡魔族的首領阿薩佐
是唯一能夠暫時打破次元空隙並移動的人。他希望能夠使女人懷孕，讓他的孩子與自己的
次元連結，藉此返回地球。
Azazel began mating with women who had unusual characteristics, at least with
looks and abilities other women did not have, as successfully birthing a
Neyaphem takes a great physical strain. He met Mystique in Germany, at the
time she was married to a rich baron named Christian Wagner, who was unable
to give her children. When Mystique was introduced to Azazel, whom Christian
knew as a business partner, she had an instant attraction to him. Although
she was hesitant to betray Christian, she gave in to Azazel and became
pregnant with Nightcrawler. While Mystique had actually fallen in love with
Azazel, he seemed only to be interested in impregnating her, though in truth,
he found himself in love with her as well, making her the only woman he ever
truly loved. Shortly after his "mission" was complete, Azazel left Mystique
because the Cheyarafim had learned of his location in Germany, thus would
attempt to kill Azazel, Mystique, and their unborn child. Knowing that
Mystique would be safe - having her resources and being the woman she was -
Azazel left her to protect her and their child. Mystique, however, would
never know of Azazel's true intentions and hated him for leaving her.
阿薩佐開始尋找有非凡特質的女性，至少外觀和能力是異於常人的女性，因為要能成功生
下惡魔族後代，是很耗肉體能力的。他在德國遇到魔形女，當時他已經嫁給一個富有的男
爵，Christian Wagner（下稱克里斯汀），但是無法使她懷孕。當阿薩佐以生意夥伴的身
分被介紹給魔形女時，她立刻就吸引了阿薩佐。此時魔形女還在猶豫是否要背叛克里斯汀
納時，她馬上就拜倒在阿薩佐之下，並且懷了夜行者。
當魔形女眞的愛上了阿薩佐，阿薩佐卻似乎只對留下後代有興趣，但其實阿薩佐也發現自
己愛上了她，而且是他此生唯一愛過的女人。
很快地，當他完成「任務」之後，他發現天使族已經發現他在德國，並試圖要殺他，阿薩
佐便即離開了魔形女和他未出生的孩子。他知道以魔形女的應變能力，只要她扮回原本的
男爵夫人就不會有危險，所以阿薩佐的離開是基於保護魔形女和孩子。但是魔形女不知道
他真正的意圖，所以對他離開一事極度憤恨。
Soon afterward, Mystique killed Christian and buried him because he suspected
her betrayal. A few months later, Mystique gave birth to Nightcrawler. Due to
the shock and the strain of the boy’s difficult delivery, Mystique lost
concentration and accidentally revealed her true form. Considered a demon,
Mystique was chased away by an angry mob. Barely escaping, she took the form
of a townsperson and, acquiescing to the mob, tossed the baby down a
ravine.The child was teleported away, apparently by Azazel, and given into
Margali Szardos’ care.Azazel had past relations with women before,resulting in
the births of Abyss (Nils Styger) and Kiwi Black.
沒過多久，克里斯汀懷疑魔形女背叛他，魔形女就下手殺了他並埋起來。過了幾個月，魔
形女生下夜行者，但是孩子的樣貌嚇到了她，以及生產的痛苦，使她分神，意外地現出原
形。原形畢露的她被認為是惡魔，而遭到暴徒追殺。好不容易逃脫後，她變身成普通村民
，並且默許暴徒將她的孩子拋下深谷。
那個孩子可能是因為阿薩佐的能力而瞬間移動逃走，並且被送給了Margali Szardos’；
一個之前和阿薩佐有過關係的女人，他們之間有兩個孩子，Abyss (Nils Styger)和
Kiwi Black。
Azazel sired several dozen other children, who, along with Nightcrawler, were
all mysteriously called together as adults to sacrifice themselves on the
island known as the Isla Des Demonas. Doing this would open a portal and
bring his army to earth to destroy the Cheyarafim, allowing the demonic
mutants to live in the world and find their place in it. The mutant children
worked together in a zombie-like state and opened the portal to Azazel's
dimension, but the X-Men had followed Nightcrawler to the island, and jumped
into the portal. Once inside, Azazel took great pleasure in toying with the
team, having them believe that he was actually Satan.
阿薩佐繁殖了許多後代，他們都跟著夜行者，一起被秘密地召喚到一個島上（Isla Des
Demonas）犧牲。這個行為可以打開次元之門，並且為阿薩佐帶來大軍摧毀天使族，使惡
魔族能在這世界存活，找到他們的容身之所。這些變種小孩一起在一個喪屍州工作，幫阿
薩佐開了一道次元之門，但是被X-Men跟蹤夜行者找到這個島，並縱身跳進次元之門。在
裡面，阿薩佐戲弄他們，使他們以為自己是撒旦。
In the end, Azazel was not able to free the Neyaphem because the portal had
to be opened in an area where Cheyarafim blood could not be found. As
Archangel was present at the time, the portal was destroyed and Azazel
vanished in grief.
因為次元之門必須被開在一個天使族後代無法找到的區域。但是此時已經有天使長在，所
以阿薩佐還是無法解放惡魔族，而次元之門也被毀壞，阿薩佐很悲傷地消失了。
