History
Origins[]
Dara Ko Eke was a Badoon Moord, an offshoot created by the Kree. She went through Amphogenesis, the process that grants her people powers. Obtaining psionic abilities, she was called "All-Knowing".[1]
Universal Inhumans and Light Brigade[]
She became a member of the Light Brigade among the Universal Inhumans. The Brigade were sent through Eldrac to the Negative Zone to participate in a great challenge of their abilities.[2]
The team was captured by Arthrosians in Negative Zone, and Annihilus made them fight on the arena to the death against the Arthrosian champions. When Human Torch was captured, he teamed up with the Light Brigade and they escaped. They attacked Annihilus and Johnny took away his Cosmic Control Rod. After that, Johnny opened a portal to the Baxter Building and they all returned to Earth.[3]
Along with the Universal Inhumans, Dara relocated to the great city of Novahala, on the continent of Akuunos of the planet Centauri-IV. As the Inhuman Queens had to discuss with Medusa as she brought dire news about Black Bolt during her quest for the origin of the Inhumans, the Light Brigade were tasked to give a tour to Medusa's crew,[4] and the group ended up entertaining themselves in the Circle of Testing Fire, the training arena.[5]
Badoon leader[]
Dara Ko Eke found herself leading a female Badoon settlement on the planet Geunee, all of them also taking a vow of nonviolence. Dara also seemingly stopped using her Inhuman name, "the All-Knowing", going by her birth name.
Their village became terrorized by Saarl the Slaughterer (who forced them to fight in gladiator-style combats for his entertainment, thus forcing them to compromise on their vow), one of the Badoon's Swamp Gods. To help her, Loki took the form of Captain Marvel and enlisted the help of Echo (Maya Lopez) (pretending Dara was asking for help). Despite being unannounced and assaulted by Badoon at first, Echo was welcomed by Dara. Exchanging on their respective paths, Dara offered the troubled Echo the use of her psychic powers to see her future, but saw only fire.
The next morning, Echo and the Badoon went to Saarl, and Echo easily defeated him. Rather than slaying him, she put his fate in the Badoon's hands. Despite Dara's proposition to stay among them for a while, Echo was now ready to deal with her own unfinished business, as planned by Loki.[6]Attributes
Powers
Dara, like most Badoon, have psionic and psychic powers, but hers are stronger and she is called "All-Knowing" because of them.[5][6]
- Mental Awareness and Telepathic Immunity: Dara have a perfect control over her mind; she can feel when someone tries to influence her and decide if she wants to be affected or not. When Captain Swain unintentionally projected her emotions, Dara was not only able to feel the attempt to affect her mind, but could even discern the exact feelings that Swain was projecting.[5]
- Precognition: She can see another person's future by touching them. However, if the future of the person is affected by something too powerful she would suffer a backlash, like she suffered when she tried to see Echo's future. She was only able to see fire there,[6] and as it turned out, she saw the Phoenix Force that soon made Echo its host.[7]
