History
Cecilia was a young girl in Cuba who felt in love with a handsome Russian diplomat named Vassily. They had a passionate relationship for several months and then Cecilia became pregnant with his child. When the Cuban authorities asked Cecilia who the father of the baby was, she told them. To protect himself, Vassily claimed that Cecilia had seduced him and asked money for favors. The result was that Vassily was sent home to Leningrad, while Cecilia, still pregnant, was locked away in prison.
In prison, Cecilia contracted a fatal sickness. She would have died, except for an alien warrior named Ylandris, who, having fallen from its native dimension, sought a way to survive on Earth, in a corporeal form. Cecilia agreed to allow Ylandris to bond with her, which would save herself and her unborn child. Later, still pregnant, Cecilia was shipped to America as an "undesirable."
Eventually, Cecilia made it out of the refugee camps, and got a job as a housekeeper at a Miami hotel to support herself and her newborn son. Ylandris, still a warrior, craved for battle. Cecilia agreed and allowed Ylandris to use her body to fight evil, using the name "Poison," a translation of Ylandris's own name.
Later, her alien nature attracted the attention of the villainous High Evolutionary. He sent his agents, the Purifiers, to destroy her, but Poison defeated them in battle.
Soon after, Cecilia allowed Ylandris to use the dimensional portal known as the Nexus of All Realities to return to its homeworld. Ylandris left some of its power behind; Cecilia is still super-powered, and stalks the streets of Miami as Poison.Attributes
