Biography
Patient 86
This man was transferred to the Ravencroft Institute, where he became known as Patient 86, and started treatment with Doctor Emmet, who diagnosed him with bipolar disorder. Emmet noticed similarities between Patient 86's case and that of her former patient Marc Spector, so she decided to introduce him to Egyptian mythology, specifically the god Amon Ra, in hopes to find resolve. Patient 86 became obsessed with Spector's identity of Moon Knight, which stemmed from the rivalry between Amon Ra and the god Moon Knight represented, Ra's son Khonshu. Patient 86 abruptly strayed from his path of healing when he attacked a nurse. When Doctor Emmet confronted him, Patient 86 wrapped himself in flames and revealed himself as a manifestation of Amon Ra. He then burned the entire hospital, with a horribly burned Emmet being the only survivor. (Moon Knight v1 #188)
