Richard Fisk was born to Wilson and Vanessa Fisk within the first year of their marriage. Vanessa was, at the time, disturbed to learn of her husband's criminal affiliations and tendencies. Vanessa pressured Wilson to send Richard to private schools for his education, as she sought to protect him from his father's influence. |
As a student in the Swiss Alps, Richard worked to be the best he could, studying hard and exercising regularly, trying to be as successful as his dad and bragging about his father constantly. When news that Wilson Fisk was the Kingpin of crime hit the papers, Richard was teased by the other students, and Richard rode despondently away on a ski lift, disappearing. Richard was believed dead in an accident, and authorities found a note he had left for his father. Kingpin got this news but kept it a secret from Vanessa for months. |
Richard used his family fortune to craft a costumed identity (The Schemer) for himself, as well as weaponry, including a trick costume and a weaponised car. He put together a plot to go to New York and, with his men, overthrow the Kingpin. |
