DOCTOR DOOM (Earth-7)

Biography 

Early Life

 Victor Von Doom is the sovereign of Latveria, a nation forged through his genius and willpower, blending science and sorcery into one unbreakable dominion. Born to a family of roma nomads, once marginalized by European aristocracy, Doom rose to power by reclaiming his mother’s stolen heritage—transforming Latveria into a kingdom for the outcast, a refuge for those denied their place in the world.

As Ruler of Latveria

Doom’s empire was built on forbidden knowledge: cruel pacts with dark beings and mastery of technologies beyond modern comprehension. He believes in the supremacy of humanity, envisioning a future where the world’s greatest power will be 100% human—not hidden behind divine bloodlines or alien technology like Wakanda, Lemuria, or Attilan, but purely human, forged through will, intellect, and ambition.

Despite his ruthless nature, Doom’s story is also one of deep conviction and paradox. His friendship and rivalry with Reed Richards pushed both men to greatness—and destruction. While Reed sought to expand knowledge for all humankind, Doom pursued it for dominion, believing that only under his control could humanity achieve perfection.

Even so, it was Victor who financed the entire Marvel-1 project when the US government turned its back on Reed Richards' research into dark matter and the Negative Zone Theory.

Doctor Doom

Doom lived in isolation in Tibet for years before taking his place as ruler of Latveria. It was there that he underwent the ritual that transformed him into Doctor Doom. When he fused the dense metal armor onto his skin, it was stamped with dozens of rituals and symbols, and mystical sigils of pure power. Making him one with the occult.

In time, his path crossed again with Sue Storm, during her second pregnancy. 

 When Sue’s life and that of her unborn daughter, Valeria Richards, were endangered, Doom—though estranged from the Fantastic Four—intervened. He ensured their survival, but at a cost: Valeria became his goddaughter, legally binding the bloodline of Doom to the Richards family. This act, equal parts mercy and manipulation, ensured Doom’s influence would never truly fade.

Now, as his goddaughter grows into her own brilliance—one capable of surpassing even her parents—Doom sees in Valeria the ultimate heir, one who might one day lead Latveria into an age of true human supremacy.
