―Maximus
Inhumans (Inhomo supremis) are a race of altered human beings that are the result of experiments on themselves or their ancestors by the extraterrestrial race known as Kree, who manipulated their genetic code. As a result, humans with this genetic Kree DNA become Inhumans when they undergo Terrigenesis, granting them superhuman abilities.
Origin
―Vin-Tak and Sif More than five thousand years ago, a rogue faction of Kree set out on an intergalactic campaign to create an army of super soldiers to help their empire win a protracted war. The Reapers sent science teams to different planets, conducting experiments on various alien lifeforms, hoping to unlock genetic potential for heightened abilities. These teams met with failure everywhere they went before coming to Earth. The Kree had significant success experimenting on humans, to the point where they built a sprawling installation beneath what is now Puerto Rico. By exposing the altered humans to the mist exhaled by Terrigen Crystals, a genetic mutation known as Terrigenesis was triggered, allowing the subjects to attain unique superhuman abilities, becoming the first Inhumans.
The One to Rule
―Gideon Malick Word of the Reapers' experiments eventually reached the Kree Empire, who sent a delegation to Earth to shut down the project, bringing with them a Monolith that they intended to use to banish the Inhumans to a distant planet, believing they should not be allowed to exist. These plans were foiled; however, by the intervention of Alveus, the Inhuman created to command the others in the Reapers' army. Alveus lead the Inhumans in an insurrection against the Kree, driving them from Earth. The other Inhumans grew fearful of Alveus' considerable power and ambition, and so allied with some of the humans Alveus planned to subjugate, banishing him through the Kree Monolith to Maveth. Alveus's followers, believing he was destined to rule the world, established a secret society with the sole purpose of bringing him back to Earth and, in the meantime, destabilizing it so it would be ripe for takeover when he did return. Over the millennia, the society evolved, taking many different shapes and being called by many different names, eventually taking shape as the international paramilitary terrorist organization known as HYDRA. The society was eventually able to obtain the Monolith, but was unsuccessful at bringing Alveus back, despite numerous attempts. The Kree's abandonment of their project did not mean the end of the Inhumans. The altered gene proved hereditary, with the first generation being able to pass Inhuman traits through generations of descendants. The Kree's hasty abandonment of their work also meant numerous Terrigen Crystals, contained in Diviners (devices the Kree used to determine whether or not subjects had the Inhuman gene), remained to be discovered.
Relocation to the Moon
―Medusa Following years of conflict between Inhumans and humans, an Inhuman society decided to leave Earth and relocate to the Moon. They adopted a monarchical government with the Royal Family at the head and a caste system below them. Those with abilities that can be of benefit to society are respected while those with mediocre abilities were sent to the mines to help sustain the small population. Safe from humanity, the Inhumans of the moon named their small city Attilan.
Original Kree ExperimentsInhuman Royal FamilyAttilan Royal GuardGenetic CouncilAttilan CitizensDiviner Awakened Inhumans•In the comics, the Inhumans were created by Kree experiments designed to "jump-start" genetic modifications previously made by the Celestials on human beings, as soldiers in their war with the Skrulls. The Supreme Intelligence ordered the end of the project when he foresaw they would destroy him. The Inhumans since divided into several tribes who have migrated across the globe and even into space. The most notable Inhuman settlement of Attilan was led by the Inhuman Royal Family that consists of Black Bolt, Medusa, Karnak, Gorgon, Crystal, Triton, Lockjaw, and their rogue relative Maximus the Mad. Another notable settlement was the city of Orollan, led by Inhuman zealot Lash.
•Vin-Tak and Sif believed Earth was only one of the worlds that the Kree succeeded within creating Inhumans. In the comics, the other four species are the Dire Wraiths, Kymellians, Centaurians, and the Badoon which later led to the formation of the Universal Inhumans upon Black Bolt's return. The last two, who exist in the MCU, are considered to be separate unrelated alien species.
•According to Raina's vision, Daisy Johnson will one day lead the Inhumans.
•According to Lincoln Campbell and Hive, Inhuman powers are not random, but are given to fill an evolutionary need at the time and to create equilibrium within the species.
•Inhumans share 99.8% of their genome with humans.
•The Inhuman gene is not always passed on, as exemplified by Ellen and Vijay Nadeer. Vijay went through Terrigenesis after being exposed to the mists, while Ellen remained human.
•Due to 20th Century Fox having the live-action rights to the X-Men and Mutants (before the acquisition of Fox by Walt Disney Studios) as defined in the Marvel continuity, Inhumans in the Marvel Cinematic Universe were filling a role similar to Mutants in the main Marvel Universe due to the fear and hated part which was later shown in the comics.
•Kamala Khan was originally an Inhuman in the comic; however, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, she is labelled as a mutant. After her death from Amazing Spider-Man Volume 6 #26, she has been revived on Krakoa to be both Mutant and Inhuman.
