History

Alaisa Ruantha Pethnan was the Princess and Pethnan of the Second Royal House of the Kharta'een empire who had the ability to weakly manipulate men into doing what she wanted. This led to her growing bored and seeking out a strange energy signal which turned out to be the Silver Surfer. She stumbled upon a battle between the Silver Surfer and Reptyl which the Surfer asked her to leave because it wasn't safe. She refused and was captured by Reptyl, and her guards were killed when they tried to rescue her. The Surfer saved her, but her interference and attempts to gain his affection allowed Reptyl to escape. She tried to win the affection of the Surfer, but he refused because he was no longer mortal and his heart belonged to another.[1]

Annoyed that he spurned her advances, she set out to amplify her powers and move beyond mortality. She found a ritual to summon a "love deity" and after following it she summoned Mistress Love who granted her powers in exchange for being her Avatar, allowing her to be called upon in the future to serve as desired. After being transformed, she was greeted by Sire Hate who offered to amplify her powers, but again in exchange for being his servant in the future as needed. Visually she did not change, but Sire Hate informed her that his powers would stay hidden until they burst out. She tracked down the Surfer and tried to use her powers on him, but he again refused, so she transformed into the Avatar of the union between love and hate. A short battle ensued but the Avatar was stunned long enough to allow the Surfer to leave with the Avatar vowing he would be hers one day.[2]

Later, when the Surfer was hooked up to a virtual reality machine to explore his past on Zenn-La, the Avatar located and confronted him once again. Driven mad, she set about obtaining the Surfer, even if it meant just his corpse, so a short battle ensued. Surfer was able to subdue her long enough to place her within the VR machine where she could be left to live with a simulacrum of the Surfer forever. Before leaving he requested the machine's owner ensure she stayed within the machine forever.[3]
