The earliest memories of Victor, which may also be fake, refer to his childhood years. Father Creed hated his son for his mutations, so quarrels broke out between them constantly. For a long time he kept his son in the cellar on a chain, breaking his bones and waiting for them to grow together. Once Victor was lucky to get free, and then he killed his father.

Mother treated her son well, and they often saw her until she died. Then Creed went to a small Canadian town. After a while, all the residents began to fear Victor, except Wolverine, who also had the power of a mutant. Creed was angry. To annoy Logan, he attacked Wolverine's girlfriend, raped and killed.
