Psylocke

The woman known as Kwannon was raised to be an assassin by the Hand. Raised to be "the enemy of peace", Kwannon fell in love with a boy and gave birth to a daughter. This displeased her masters, who killed her lover and took her daughter away from her.

She eventually became the prime assassin of the Japanese crimelord Lord Nyoirin, as well as the lover of Matsu'o Tsurayaba, a high-ranking member of a group of ninja mystics called the Hand. When the interests of Nyoirin and the Hand came into conflict, Kwannon was honor-bound to face her lover Matsu'o in combat. During the conflict, she fell from an ocean cliff and suffered injuries that left her brain-damaged and comatose with no hope for recovery.

Getting closer to and indebted to Mister Sinister, due to his help in investing Apoth, she was assigned to lead Mister Sinister's team of Hellions; composed of mutants who were too violent or troubled due to their mutation to be around the rest of the Krakoans.

Their first mission led them to taking down the State Home For Foundlings in Omaha, Nebraska, which was a cover for Sinister's still active Marauders cloning farm. When Kwannon and the Hellions arrived, they were confronted by and battled the Goblin Queen and her perverse Marauders, whom she had been magically and psychically torturing. After a swift defeat, most of the Hellions were captured, except for Psylocke and Wild Child, whom had the urge to attack after believing she was faulting as the alpha of their 'pack'. After his quick defeat, Kwannon cleansed his mind of his feral nature for the moment, turning Wild Child into to his more civilized self, speaking in coherent and complete sentences..

After Madelyne Pryor was shot dead by John Greycrow, Havok blew up the state home in anger, with Kwannon and the rest of the Hellions escaping safely outside. After returning back to Krakoa, Kwannon was seen being followed around by Wild Child, who had accepted her as his alpha.
