History

Growing up in a small backwoods town, Edie one day realized that she would wake up in a different place after falling asleep. She subconsciously wanted out of the town, which is why her powers began to manifest. Edie became pregnant at age 15. During an argument over her pregnancy Edie learned her real father was a man who had just been passing through town, not the man who raised her. After giving birth, she teleported to Hollywood. Katie did not realize Edie was her mother, instead thinking she was an older sister. Edie also did not want to tell her the truth, fearing the grief would be too much if a mission went bad.

Edie sharing Zeitgeist last moment

As part of X-Force she was intimate with Zeitgeist, and was one of the most popular and commercially-minded members.

Edie was angry that she was passed over for leadership as one of the few remaining original members. Coach urged her to make things difficult for Mister Sensitive, such as 'accidentally' teleporting to the wrong location.

She did not talk about her home or family, but on one mission Edie accidentally transported the team to her hometown where she saw her daughter for the first time since giving birth.

Edie checked into a clinic as her powers became more unstable and the stimulant became ineffective. There Coach convinced her to load Guy's gun so that he would shoot himself. She did but felt remorse and confronted Coach. She tried to go rescue Guy but Coach had poisoned her inhaler. In the ensuing battle, she shot and killed Coach.

U-Go Girl hit

She filled in on CNN for Larry King and was originally offered a show only for it to be given to Lacuna.

Edie and Mister Sensitive became lovers and she took him to meet her family.

While fighting the Bush Rangers in space, it was down to Guy, Tike, and Edie. Tike volunteered to get killed when they could only find a 2-person lifeboat to escape. However, Edie was shot with a bone spur by one of the Rangers posing as Spike. As she lay dying, she requested that the team call itself X-Statix. Anarchist and Mister Sensitive covered her body with a shroud and let it drift into space.

Attributes

Power Grid

Powers

Teleportation: U-Go Girl can teleport herself and others with no apparent limit.

Weaknesses

Teleporting exhausts Edie, causing her to fall asleep. While she apparently has no limit on location, longer distances require more rest. She attempted to offset this with coffee. She was also given an inhaler with a stimulant. However, under the stimulant her teleports are less likely to reach the desired location.

Paraphernalia

Equipment

Stimulant inhaler.
