History
Torpid is young Morlock girl, probably between four and eight years old, and somewhat physically small in comparison to other children of similar age. Whether her diminutive size is part of her genetic heritage is unknown. She is also very “cute,” in a certain eerie way. Her only other extraordinary physical feature is her overlarge hands, which she keeps concealed under an ever-present pair of black leather gloves, which she removes in order to utilize her mutant power. She does not speak, but only communicates by means of facial expressions, indicating she may be mute.
Unlike Rogue’s power, her own may penetrate at least one layer of clothing, the victim’s, to effect her “stun-touch”, thus whether the gloves are a necessity in order to keep her power from activating accidentally or in a manner beyond her control, as with Rogue, is unclear. It could also be that she wears the gloves for the primary purpose of concealing her hands along with the secondary purpose of dampening her power.
She was one of the Morlocks to first welcome Evan (Spyke), when he awoke to see the group[1] She has been a great ally to the Morlocks on many occasions, with the use of her “touch” pulling them out of any tight spot or two.[2]Attributes
