Inhuman of The Day

February 14th - Cherios

A winged Inhuman who lived on Attilan centuries ago.  Cherios, like many of the other winged Inhumans of the day, saw himself as being of greater status compared to those who were wingless and could not fly.  He aligned himself with Kylus in demanding of King Nestor that the private city of Aerie be built, exclusively for the winged Inhumans.

Kylus was ultimately given his way, yet the creation of Aerie, held aloft by anti-gravity projectors, only acted to compound tensions between the winged and non-winged Inhumans.  Kylus decreed that Aerie should secede from Attilan.  Cherios was the sole voice of opposition and it caused Kylus to become suspicious of him.  Kylus, and the majority of the winged Inhumans, had feathered, bird-like wings… whereas Cherios and the minority of winged Inhumans had leathery, bat-like wings.   Kylus’ fearful bigotry deepened and he declared that all bat-winged Inhumans were not ‘pure’ and should be purged from Aerie.  Cherios and his fellow bat-winged Inhumans were all slaughtered. 

It was the final straw and King Nestor granted Aerie its secession, severing the tether that connected the floating city to Attilan and leaving the winged Inhumans to their fate.  Aerie struggled greatly on its own, many of its citizens starved and succumbed to the elements.  As time past Aerie was eventually able to attain self-sufficiency and ultimately thrive.  Kylus died and new rulers were elected.   Through an odd twist of genetic fate, the new generation of Aeirens were born with wings and did not require Terrigenesis to attain them.  As Aerian culture moved forward, they came to feel ashamed over their society’s bloody origins and the purging of their bat-winged cousins.  

Centuries past and Aerie remained a secluded society floating secretly in the clouds.  In the 1920’s, an aircraft came across Aerie and crashed landed on the city.  The lone survivor of the crash was an infant human whom the Aeirens chose to raise as one of their own.  So that this child could fly with the others, King Aerivar ordered that an artificial set of wings and an anti-gravity harness be created for the child.  These artificial wings were made in a bat-like form and the child was dubbed ‘the Heir of Cherios.’  As an adult, the Heir of Cherios returned to the human world and fought alongside the Allied Forces during World War II, as the hero known as ‘Red Raven.’
