Who is Magus (Technarchy)?

Origin The Magus is the patriarch of the Technarchy, a race of hostile techno-organic , meta-morphic beings who scour the universe looking for things to feed on through the use of their "techno-organic virus." Their homeworld of Kvch is a largely desolate and seemingly barren place. The Magus himself is extraordinarily violent, brutal, and arrogant. His species, (save Warlock , who is considered a mutant ) is incapable of love, compassion, or mercy. Entirely male, they reproduce by mechanical means, after which it is customary for father and son to fight to the death in order to evolve into their mature state. Warlock refused to fight his father, as he had no interest in ruling the Technarchy. This enraged the Magus, prompting Warlock to flee Kvch. Creation The Magus first appeared in 1984's New Mutants #18. He was created by writer Chris Claremont and artist Bill Sienkiewicz.
