Forge

Marvel

Forge, also known as Michael Twoyoungmen (though legally Michael Greywolf), is a mutant character in Marvel Comics. He possesses the power of technopathy, an intuitive ability to create and understand technology. This allows him to build complex devices from seemingly disparate parts and intuitively grasp the function of any machine.

Born into the Cheyenne Nation, Forge initially distrusted his mutant powers, believing they were a curse. He served in the Vietnam War where he lost his right hand, replaced by a bionic prosthetic of his own design. This event solidified his connection to technology and honed his abilities.

Forge has a long and complex history with the X-Men. He designed their Danger Room and has been a member of the team on multiple occasions. He also had a significant romantic relationship with Storm, which was often fraught with difficulty due to his involvement with dangerous mystical and technological forces.

His expertise in both technology and magic has made him a valuable asset to the superhero community. Forge has worked with various organizations, including S.H.I.E.L.D. and the U.S. government, providing technological solutions and strategic insights. His ambiguous morality and pragmatic approach often place him in morally grey areas, making him a complex and fascinating character.
