-- Psylocke about the humans

Elizabeth Braddock was a mutant who was part of Callisto's group of The Omegas, where she called herself Psylocke.[6] William Stryker had been keeping files on Braddock, along with many other mutants.[1] During the event on Alkali Lake when brainwashed Charles Xavier used Dark Cerebro against the mutants all over the world, Elizabeth Braddock was in a fashion show in Vatican City when Cerebro's power put her in a coma.[7] When the machine was reversed and Braddock woke up from her coma, she used her telepathy[8] to see what was happening.

When the mutant cure was created, Psylocke and the Omegas protested, saying that there was nothing wrong with mutants; therefore, there was nothing to cure. Callisto decided she would join Magneto's Brotherhood of Mutants. The rest of her group, which included Psylocke, Quill, and Arclight, followed, and became high members of the Brotherhood. She and the Omegas fought in the battle on Alcatraz Island, where she, Quill, and Arclight entered Worthington Labs while the rest of the mutants fought outside.[9] Psylocke captured Warren Worthington Jr., and attempted to kill him by throwing him off the balcony, but his son saved him before he hit the ground. When The Phoenix began to destroy Worthington Labs with her disintigration wave, Psylocke tried to escape the building. However, she was not fast enough, and was most likely killed.[4]

Powers and Abilities

Powers

Possibly same as mainstream counterpart. Psylocke can run very quickly, but she was not fast enough to escape the Phoneix's disintegration wave.

Strength level

Normal or athletic female human strength.

Weaknesses

Although Melançon stated that her character had the ability to turn into shadows[10] (therefore, without shadows, Psylocke cannot transform), no shadows were visible when she appeared in front of Worthington.

Paraphernalia

Equipment

None known.

Transportation

Levitated Bridge.

Weapons

Psi-blades[10]

Notes

In the X3 novelization, Psylocke survives The Phoenix's attack by transporting through the shadows in the hallway[4]; however, the novel's level of canonicity is unknown.
