Patrick Channing was a serial killer who also went by the nickname, the Pentagram Killer. He was active in the year 1990 and earned his reputation by carving a pentagram symbol into the flesh of his victims before killing them. Los Angeles detective Russell Logan tracked down and captured Channing and he was later executed for his crimes. However, as Channing was also an occultist and worshiper of Satan, his soul inherited "the first power", the power of resurrection. Reborn with new abilities, Channing set out to avenge himself against Detective Logan as well as his psychic assistant Tess Seaton.
