Stephen Strange was born in Philadelphia in the year 1930 while his parents were out vacationing; his sister was born a year later on their parent’s farm in Nebraska. From an early age Stephen always considered a career in medical. Throughout school Stephen’s interest in medicine grew and by the time he finished school he found himself applying to obtain his degree. Stephen applied to the New York College and he was surprised that he was accepted as a pre-med something that he always wanted to achieve. On his nineteenth birthday he was back home and swimming with a friend called Donna she drowned while swimming and Stephen couldn’t save her. Stephen believed that he failed and this was the push that he needed to complete his training to become a doctor. Stephen Strange graduated from New York College at the top of his class earning him his degree in medicine he was now a doctor and he was glad about this. Stephen began his medical career at a New York Hospital he further was a success which only made him more arrogant as time went on. Stephen’s mother died at the end of his residency which only drove Stephen deeper and deeper into his work which caused his workmates to distant from him. By the time Stephen turned thirty he was a wealthy neurosurgeon and only accepted patients that can afford to pay him; this turned Stephen into a cold callous and greedy person. Stephen even refused to visit his father when he died he was unable to take anymore tragedy in his life. Life was about to change for Stephen; something that he wasn’t expecting at all but this would prove to be for good rather than bad. In the year 1963 Stephen was involved in a car accident that would nearly have killed him. Stephen was involved in a head on collision that left him scarred for life; the surgeons worked for hours trying to bring him back to the world of the living and when Stephen finally woke up he found his medical career over. The accident caused the nerves in his hands to be damaged making him unable to work as a doctor. This left Stephen angry most of the time and he left New York completely. Stephen travelled and he began hearing rumours of an ancient being that could cure his problem. Stephen discovered rumours of the Ancient One a being of great magical abilities. Stephen sacrificed everything to find out where this Ancient One was and he discovered that he had to go East and that’s exactly what he did he brought a ticket and travelled to find the one person that could help him in his quest to get everything that he ever wanted back. Stephen arrived at the Tibet palace where he was granted audience with the ancient one. The Ancient One refused to cure him however he did explain that he would teach Stephen something else something that Stephen himself found impossible. Stephen soon began to witness magical abilities when Mordo attacked the teacher. Mordo overpowered Stephen who was surprised about these magic abilities and underwent a change of heart so to speak. Stephen wanted to learn he wanted to be able to use these magical abilities himself and stop Mordo. Stephen soon began his training; the tasks that the Ancient One got him doing were ridicules at times but Stephen soon accepted them anyway. The Ancient One revealed the secret behind their magical abilities a secret that Stephen soon discovered how it was possible that they could use magical attacks. The Ancient One handed Stephen a ring that looked very old. The Ancient One told Stephen that these were the rings of the gods that fell through the realms. Stephen found out that the ring was the cause of the magic and it was more science than anything else but Stephen still needed to be trained to fully activate the rings power and so the training began for Stephen. Stephen spent years training with the Ancient One before he was fully capable to unleash the rings full potential and he soon became a master at the ring and its magical science. Stephen studied the science behind the magic with the Ancient One for seven years before returning to the United States in 1970. Stephen soon began work as a mystic consultant and he even created his home the Sanctum Sanctorum he befriended a man named Wong who helped Stephen out. Stephen now has become the Sorcerer Supreme. As the years moved on Stephen stayed young thanks to his abilities. Stephen decided to not help out the Avenger’s when New York was attacked for reasons of his own however Stephen was contacted by Nick Fury and asked him to work as a consultant for Shield and he accepted the offer not knowing what he was getting himself into. Over the years Stephen Strange has devolved an arrogant attitude towards others at first he only took the rich and anyone that could afford his prices as patients. Stephen’s workmates drifted away from him because of his cruel and greedy ways. Upon meeting the Ancient One and seeing a whole new world Stephen’s attitude towards both life and how he treated others changed for the better. Stephen accepts now that what happened to him during the car accident was for a reason and that reason was to become the Sorcerer Supreme; something that he didn’t think was even possible to begin with. Stephen now helps anyone though sometimes his arrogance does surface when he’s angry. Stephen’s vast magical abilities comes from the science of Asgard. Stephen can use magic thanks to the ring of the gods a special ring that he can use to make incredible things happen. Over the years Stephen has trained his mind and body to allow him to use Asgard Science in the form of magic to become extremely powerful and with the wand of Watoomb his abilities multiplies that much more. The wand was a gift from Asgard he has no idea who sent him that wand but he knows that it came from Asgard. Without the ring or the wand to use his magic Stephen is just a regular man of 83 a man that can be killed just like every other normal human being. Stephen can also be killed by other greater powerful beings that can overcome his own abilities. Stephen isn’t a god but a man that wishes to use his knowledge for good. |
