Biography
The Loner
Very little is known about the youth of the thief known as Remy LeBeau save that he is a mutant capable of making objects explosive by charging them with kinetic energy. He first appeared helping a young girl being menaced by the gangster called Hammerhead, who had already murdered her parents. He defeated the criminal and helped the girl find a new home but he remained a nomad.
Agent of Fenris
Over time, Remy discovered he was losing control of his powers, as they were causing almost everything he touched to become explosive. Soon he met the Fenris twins, two mutant twins who ran the organization of the same name, who promised him that they could help him with his problem. In return, Gambit became an agent for Fenris and was tasked with kidnapping the X-Man Rogue.
