Ultra-Humanite (New Earth-Forty Seven)

Origin
The being known as the Ultra-Humanite was once a gifted scientist, who lived and researched in isolation, in a very remote and dangerous part of Africa. During this time, he would refuse and shun any other human contact, believing they would either steal his work for their own or were not worth the company of his genius. Due to this lifestyle, no one is really certain who he was or any of his history prior to his research in Africa.

The nameless scientist would eventually fall victim to his own genetics and develop a disease that caused his body to slowly breakdown and fail him. It would first begin with his bones weakening, then his muscles and eventually his organs. In order to save himself he created a method to transfer his brain into a new host, but due to the fact he was so isolated, he could not find a suitable human host. In order to survive he was forced to search for the only other option that could handle a humans brain.

The scientist would begin searching for a gorilla, but to his own surprise the previous group of gorillas had left the valley near his lab. Getting increasingly desperate, he decided to follow the legend of the immortal Goldren Ape, believing the legend may be his last change.

After several months of searching and his health continuing to degrade, he found the gorilla in a state of intense meditation. Taking advantage of this he studied the ape's body and discovered it was indeed no ordinary ape, but something beyond science. Using his knowledge in surgery he removed the ape's brain and used an automated device to remove his own brain and place it in the ape's body.
