    Ioakim and his brothers were born with their physiology mirroring those of snow leopards, revealing them to be mutants. At the time, mutants were abandoned by their parents or taken away by the KGB who would terminate them due to the perceived threat mutants posed to baseline humans. However, a few were spared from this fate and trained by Professor Piotr Phobos within a Super Soldier School to become highly trained spies on behalf of the Soviet Union.

    In time the program was dismantled and Issa and his brothers escaped into the Siberian wilderness until they were discovered by Yi Yang, an immortal claiming to be thousands of years old. Under her influence, the three brothers came to do her bidding, Ilya's older brother Issa falling deeply in love with the villain. The brothers created Xanadu, a home base for Yi Yang. Eventually Issa fought with Night Raven, Yi-Yang's long time enemy and fellow immortal who located the secret compound whilst accompanied by the Black Widow. In an attempt to escape, Issa was killed when the helicopter Yi Yang attempted to escape crashed and exploded. Ioakim and his other brother Ilya survived.
