| Anthro was initially the Captain of the Fraction Empress's guard. When the Fraction's Scientia discovered the means to tap into the Speed Force, he was the first test subject. The Scientia's experiments gave him a natural connection to the Force, but the Empress instructed him to conceal this; correctly believing that the Fraction's people would view this change to his biology as blasphemy and fear the Force when she wished to use it. The Scientia refined their process to allow their people to tap into the Force with technology without being changed via an "Artificial Conduit Harness". Anthro wore a harness like the rest of the Fraction, even though he did not need it, to hide his true nature. |
| With the power of the Force, the Fraction were able to rapidly develop and colonise their entire star system in a matter of hours, but in so doing they destroyed the natural environment of their homeworld and grew until the resources of their system were no longer enough to support them. The Fraction's Empress charged him to journey out and plunder new worlds to feed the Fraction's ravenous hunger. He agreed, but only if she would grant him her hand in marriage. He was almost executed on the spot for his impudence but the Empress assented to marry him once he had secured enough resources to restore their world to its once beautiful pristine state. |
| While raiding a nearby star system, Anthro discovered that there were other beings who possessed a natural connection to the Speed Force. The Fraction enslaved these "organic conduits" to serve as living batteries, allowing their ships to travel beyond their own universe and raid the Multiverse itself in search of resources. For his conquests the Fraction revere Anthro as their greatest living hero. |
| The Fraction's journeys eventually brought them to Earth 0. They landed their ship at the boundary between Keystone City and Central City, killing thousands of people and starting a battle with the Flash Family. |
