English term or phrase: origin story
This is about the background story of how a super hero came to get his or her super powers (e.g., the origin story of Spiderman is that he got his powers by being bitten by a radioactive spider). The text I'm working with does not actually deal with super heroes at all, but refers to someone's origin story in relation to his super ambitions. So I thought it'd be nice to use the right Swedish term (if there is one) and not just "bakgrundshistoria".
