Doctor Strange / Stephen Strange
A brilliant but arrogant neurosurgeon who becomes the Sorcerer Supreme and Earth's primary protector against magical and mystical threats across the multiverse.
Story
Dr. Stephen Strange was a world-renowned but egotistical neurosurgeon whose career ended after a car accident severely damaged his hands. In a desperate quest for healing, he traveled to Kamar-Taj, where he met the Ancient One and discovered the world of mystic arts. Through rigorous training and discipline, he mastered sorcery, eventually inheriting the mantle of Sorcerer Supreme. He resides in the Sanctum Sanctorum in New York City, guarding the reality against interdimensional entities like Dormammu. He balances his immense power with a heavy burden of responsibility, often making difficult moral choices to ensure the survival of the universe. His journey from a man of science to a master of magic defines his complex worldview and his role as a bridge between the physical and mystical realms.
