History

Persephone is the mysterious mutant leader of Soteira. Through Soteira, she began amassing powers and influence from behind the scenes. She also had Soteira steal the body of Wolverine and somehow resurrected him to commit atrocities for unknown reasons.

When the search for Wolverine organized by the X-Men led the search groups to learn and interfere with Soteira's operations, Persephone decided to send the X-Men a message. After distracting them with projectiles from space, she displayed the dead bodies of ten latent mutants she found in Mister Sinister's DNA database and warned the X-Men that there would even more deaths unless that they left her operations alone.
