Smoking Fiend

Smoking Fiend was a high-ranking member of the Clandestine Company.

Biography
The Smoking Fiend oversaw experiments at a Clandestine Company facility in the outlands located near City 17. He was joined by proxy leader David Wakeham, who was wanting to see the Smoking Fiend's progress. The facility was compromised when Nathan Johnson and Fox Mulder (the latter being the Smoking Fiend's son) infiltrated the facility. The Smoking Fiend and Wakeham managed to escape the facility and escape before Nathan and Mulder could catch them.

The Smoking Fiend was present at the Clandestine Company's air exchange, in which he and Wakeham began pumping toxic chemicals into the atmosphere which would poison most of the population. But this plan was foiled when the resistance infiltrated the air exchange and destroyed the facility, although again the Smoking Fiend and Wakeham escaped.

Following the Clandestine Company's downfall, the Smoking Fiend went into hiding and resided in a lighthouse by the coast. He later made an attempt to wipe out most of the human race by unleashing a deadly strain of virus, but was shot down by Mulder before he could complete his task, and fell into the ocean. Unknown to Mulder, the Smoking Fiend was beamed up by aliens and revived so he could be used to help with their invasion plans.

Five years since the Clandestine Company's defeat, the Smoking Fiend unleashed a virus provided by the aliens which began to weaken and kill most of humanity, which allowed them to invade the earth and start destroying the remaining humans. The Smoking Fiend became the head of a newly established Clandestine Company. The Smoking Fiend and his colonist army came into a confrontation with the Xenian Army from the Xen dimension, who wanted the colonists off earth. He hired Gordon Fiendman to kill Andy Shephard, although Fiendman was unsuccessful as Andy showed immense strength and durability.

Sick of taking orders from SF, Fiendman killed him and took control of the new Clandestine Company.
