History

The most powerful woman on Wall Street, Headhunter became obsessed with Namor and his power upon witnessing him in battle with John Horton, the Griffin. She took Desmond Marrs captive, luring Desmond's sister, Phoebe, and Namor to her office.

Headhunter captured Namor, placing him in her wall of severed heads. She planned to use her control over him to discover lost treasures in the ocean. When Namorita, who had been trailing Namor, broke in, Namor revealed that he was immune to the mesmerization; he was merely trying to figure out what was going on. As Namor destroyed the wall of heads, exposing the fact that Headhunter hadn't actually cut off anyone's head but rather used the wall and a mirror trick to hide their sedated bodies, Headhunter escaped in her helicopter. With Namor pursuing her, Headhunter crashed the helicopter into the East River.

Later Events

She kept her powers after the Decimation, (or rather, acquired powers via retroactive continuity, since her previous appearances were explicit that she has no powers and is simply a talented illusionist and con artist) and was later hired by Purple Man to help him recruit villains for his Villains for Hire program.

She was later seen in Madripoor, then owned by Mystique who let in criminals of all types.

Attributes

Powers

Headhunter could mesmerize and control others. She used these powers to gain an advantage in the financial world, as well as to place in a catatonic state those who crossed her. She placed these victims behind a wall in her office, with only their heads exposed, creating the illusion of various grisly trophies.

Weaknesses

Headhunter's powers seem to be ineffective against mutants. As an albino, she is vulnerable to bright lights, and rarely leaves her home or office.

Paraphernalia

Weapons

She has attachments blade to her fingers, it is unknown if these are cybernetic enhancements or something else.
