The demon developed a plan to bound Noble Kale, the ghostly entity who possessed Kale's descendant
Daniel Ketch as Ghost Rider, to his infernal realm, giving
Blackheart access to Ghost Rider's power source. To this end, he empowered several beings, mortal and otherwise to become Spirits of Vengeance in his service. (Despite Blackheart's use of the name, his Spirits of Vengeance had no obvious connection to the Spirits of vengeance that roamed the Earth many thousands of years ago, battled
Zarathos alongside the Blood and others, and eventually empowered the Ghost Rider, Vengeance and others.)
