Quote1 The Imperial High Guard! They've found us! Quote2
Swift[1][src]

History

Swift was a member of the Birds of Prey, a team of outlaw heroes operating on the planet D'Vor, where they were taken following their abduction from their home planets. Though the Imperial High Council of D'Vor had a long history of enslaving the people of neighboring worlds, the Birds of Prey rebelled, refusing to serve the council and dedicating their lives to help others resist the tyranny of the D'Vorans.[2][3]

In 1992, Swift and the Birds helped a group of humans who were being assaulted by the D'Voran task force called The Factor, composed by Knockdown, Reign and Trek.[4] Not wanting to fight the Birds of Prey in their territory, The Factor fled. Battlestone, the leader of the humans, was reluctant to trust the Birds, but he was convinced to give it a try by his second-in-command.[5]

A few days later, both teams were found by the Imperial High Guard, who led them towards the Citadel, where the D'Voran prince Genocide was waiting for them. Genocide challenged Battlestone to a one-on-one match, but the Birds of Prey and the humans joined in quickly enough. Battlestone insisted on fighting Genocide himself, and left the teams to take care of the guards. Genocide attempted a sneak attack against Stone, but when Talyn, leader of the Birds, got him out of the way, the attack hit one of Battlestone's teammates instead, killing him. In a fury, Battlestone pummelled Genocide, defeating him. Afterwards, the humans boarded a ship and departed to Earth.[6]
