When Brock's symbiote soon returned to be bonded again, allowing Venom to escape prison, the symbiote unknowingly left its offspring in the cell; due to its alien instincts, the symbiote felt no emotional attachment to its offspring, regarding it as insignificant, and thus never communicated its existence to Brock via their telepathic link. While storming the city hall, Superior Carnage states that Kasady was a fool who wasted so much time on chaos while there was much more to be accomplished with a little focus. [11] As a child, he killed his grandmother by pushing her down a flight of stairs, tried to murder his mother by dropping a hairdryer into her bathtub, and tortured and killed his mother's dog with a drill. He was then tied in metal plates by Nova and left by his symbiote as he revealed he wanted to kill Nova because he wanted to erase any memory of his good deeds, from the time he had his moral axis inverted, from anyone who remembered it.

Geboren im Ravencroft Institute, starb er im Alter von nur 19 Minuten an einer Strangulierung der Nackenschnur, wurde aber vom dunklen Gott Knull wiederbelebt, eine Erfahrung, die sich als Antrieb für seine Blutgier und seine Besessenheit vom Chaos erwies.

After the cult dedicated to worshipping Knull, led by a corrupted Scorn, retrieved Cletus's body and stole a sample of the Grendel symbiote from the Maker's laboratory, they wanted to bond the Grendel symbiote to Cletus, so he could be psychically connected to Knull through the codex, trace remnants of Knull's leftover on the dragon's body.
