| Orchis began as a paper written by A.I.M. agent Alia Gregor, some time in the aftermath of the Decimation. She noted that by standard population growth models, the mutants should become the dominant form of humanity within a generation, but massive events, such as the Decimation, or the earlier destruction of the mutant population center of Genosha, had prevented this, and that if mutantkind ever formed a nation again, then preventing their rise would require a well-resourced organization to expertly deploy the skilled agents at its disposal, with projections of the amounts of personnel and materiel it would require. This paper was quietly circulated among espionage agencies as a thought experiment. | ||||
| Years later, this paper was used as a blueprint by Doctor Killian Devo after he was brainwashed by Omega Sentinel into believing he was from a timeline where mutants dominated humans and became Earth's primary species. | ||||
| Formed from the ranks of S.H.I.E.L.D., S.T.R.I.K.E., S.W.O.R.D., A.R.M.O.R., A.I.M., Alpha Flight, H.A.M.M.E.R., HYDRA, as well as the CIA, FBI, Mossad, and FCB, Orchis is an organization dedicated to a response to a "doomsday" scenario involved an extinction-level population of Homo superior. | ||||
