Biography
Rory Campbell was a colleague of Moira MacTaggart's, working side-by-side with her through the founding of the Muir Island Research Facility. The two scientists were close friends, although platonic. When Moira married Joseph MacTaggart, however, Rory realized that his feelings for her went beyond the platonic, although he tried his best to suppress them.
After the birth of Kevin MacTaggart, Rory began to feel an intense jealousy towards Joe, exacerbated by the fact that Moira's husband was often absent, working to further his own political career. When Kevin was discovered to possess the x-gene, Rory volunteered to assist with any help that was needed, especially when Kevin's mutation began to manifest problematically.
One such accidental manifestation resulted in tragedy for Doctor Campbell, when a four-year-old Kevin unknowingly lashed out with his reality-altering power, disintegrating half of Rory's left leg. Although Rory was later fitted with a prosthetic and was able to maintain his duties at the Institute, he detested the boy for his role in turning Rory into what he referred to as "a one-legged cripple". Angered by his disfigurement, Rory continued to work with Moira to research Kevin's condition until the boy's untimely death three years later.
In 2004, Rory was present at Muir when Joseph MacTaggart unleashed a mutant who had been genetically modified with Kevin's DNA. After the incident, Rory unceremoniously resigned his position at the Institute, which was later filled by Dr. Curt Connors.
Since then, Doctor Campbell's whereabouts are unknown.
