Origins:
 
On returning to his kingdom of Latveria after a successful revolution against him its monarch, Doctor Doom encountered a young boy named Kristoff and his mother, a Latverian woman still loyal to Doom. A robot under the control of Zorba, the current ruler of Latveria, slew the woman for violating curfew, thereby outraging Doom, who considered the woman to have been under his protection and destroyed the robot in retaliation. After regaining the Latverian throne, Doom took the orphaned Kristoff under his care and had him raised in the royal palace. Doom became quite fond of Kristoff and decided to make him his heir.
Later, Doctor Doom's body was destroyed by the explosion of cosmic energy in which the alien Tyros, formerly known as Terrax, perished. Doom survived by psionically transferring his consciousness into the body of an onlooker just before Doom's own body was destroyed.
Back in Latveria, Doctor Doom's robots, believing their master to be dead, implemented a plan of his by which Doom hoped that his legacy would carry on after his death. The robots began programming Kristoff's mind with the recorded memories of Doctor Doom in chronological order. As a result Kristoff came to believe that he himself was the original Doctor Doom.
