Origins:
 
Pestilence was the first of her name to serve in Apocalypse's Horsemen. She was sealed away on Arakko, alongside her fellow Horsemen. They ended up in the dimension of Amenth which was populated by endless hordes of Daemons. Her mother Genesis and the other mutants that were left on Arakko made the island their home and built towers to protect them from the threat of the Daemons.
However, after her mother fell at hands of Amenth's dark god and leader of the Daemons, Annihilation, the Daemons finally managed to destroy Arakko's towers and attack its mutant population. In a last ditch effort to save Arakko, Pestilence and the surviving mutants sent the Summoner to Earth to find her father Apocalypse. However, her mother was actually still alive and combined with Annihilation, which lead to the Daemons and Arakko's forces joining together and deciding to invade Krakoa.
After months have passed, Pestilence, alongside her siblings, the other Horsemen, began leading the Daemon armies, and assaulted Otherworld in order to access Krakoa. After reuniting with their father, the Horsemen and the Summoner attacked Apocalypse and launched an attack on some members of the X-Men. The fight was broken up by the Omniversal Majestrix Saturnyne who offered each side to participate in the challenge of the Ten of Swords for victory, to which they agreed.
