Age: 25

Weight: 155 lbs
Hair: Black/Purple

Alignment: Neutral (Evil)
Personality: Psylocke is a woman of tasteful evil. She can kill just as she can conquer, just as she can rule. Her skills are vast, and her personality warping to match her current goal. Unlike most villains, Psylocke is restrained, and leads a normal life separate from wanting to rule over all those around her. Though she finds herself superior, she tends not to lord it over any, unless she can prove that in fact she is the better. Refined and disciplined, her attacks are well strategized and methodical. She holds quite a bit of patience, but is swift in her kill. Unlike most, she feels no need to prolong the death of another living being.

|O r i g i n|
The story of the woman who would be Psylocke is two-fold, for we deal with two individuals, both carved into warriors.
The first is Elizabeth “Betsy” Braddock. Betsy grew up a competitive child, alongside her two brothers. Two brothers who she frequently made an effort to outpace and outdo. With a proud military tradition behind them, Betsy would eventually begin work with the S.T.R.I.K.E., the European division of S.H.I.E.L.D…while hiding a secret. Betsy was a mutant, and a telepathic one at that, and though she did not like to use her powers publicly, she did like to use them…and enjoyed making great use of them, digging up dirt on those who got in their way, forcing others to make poor decisions, and using her abilities to make interrogations either go smoothly…or very poorly. However she was feeling at the time determined her actions. S.T.R.I.K.E. truly meant nothing to Braddock…she simply wanted the power.
Before she could be caught, or even noticed rather, Betsy made her way across Europe and Asia, to Japan, sent on a mission through STRIKE …only to be met by a catastrophic storm. The storm capsized her vessel, leaving her at the mercy of the waves…
The second is girl only known as Kwannon, assassin of a prestigious Japanese Crimelord, Nyoirin. She was also lover of a Master in The Hand, Matsuo Tsurayaba. These two ideologies…underground ninja society and a far more modern crime, would come into conflict.
Kwannon had been in training to be the prime assassin, the best assassin, of Nyoirin, since shortly after she could walk. She was also a mutant, but of relatively low level, with just some very base empathic abilities. Due to her ability to read the emotional state of others, and her own training with virtually all manner of weaponry, she was an elite killing machine to be reckoned with. But she was not Hand.
Confronting Tsurayaba, who was standing against Nyoirin, the two engaged in combat, with Tsurayaba winning, leaving Kwannon comatose and near death…something Tsurayaba could not accept.
Then, opportunity knocked. In the South China sea, Elizabeth washed up on shore of a Hand base, much to the delight of Tsurayaba. He took to the Dark Arts…here were two women, both nearly destroyed, but both with visible spirit. He asked these dark magicks to return to him his love, and thus was done…though not as he expected.
The two were neither Braddock nor Kwannon, but a mixture of both, their skill, tastes, and mutant abilities split between them. It was here that both women decided that only one outcome was possible, as only one of them could exist. They were both to find the ten rings of the Mandarin, a forgotten Chinese warlord, and whoever claimed the most would prove to be the true Braddock/Kwannon.
In the end, after months of searching, the one inhabiting the body of Braddock claimed 7 of the 10 rings, leaving the other to her fate. She retreated, determined to one day return and prove herself.
As she traveled, she slowly felt herself become more focused, and though she inhabited the body of Kwannon, she realized the truth…she was Elizabeth Braddock. The other had her body, and that would not stand.
She would return, only to discover something she had not known…her body was, and had been, in the late stages of cancer, and it began to show now. Kwannon, in the body of Braddock, had been beaten, and was worthless. Elizabeth had a second chance. Elizabeth then plunged a psionic blade into her own body’s mind, scrambling the mind she once inhabited, and then plunging a blade through her heart. The body of Elizabeth Braddock and the mind of Kwannon were lost forever. Unfortunately, before she could realize Kwannon no longer possessed the 7 rings of Mandarin, Tsurayaba's loyal followers struck Psylocke over the head, forcibly removing the remaining 3 rings from her fingers before disappearing, leaving Psylocke unconscious. When she awoke, though it was unclear what exactly had happened, Psylocke had a damn good idea.
Elizabeth had a new chance…and new urges. Still, she had to go and show the world how she was better than they, but…there was no need to be blatant. She began working in modeling, to support her “civilian” side, while her darker side sought out those who could help her prove her might…
