Strength Level: Remedy possesses the normal
strength of a human her age who engages in intense regular exercise.
Known Superhuman Powers: Remedy has full control
over her healing abilities which have provided her not only with her
vocation in life but has also kept her alive for far longer than she
should have been. Remedy has the ability to cure or infect illnesses,
heal wounds, collapse or save bodily organs by touch and can pass
toxic rays of energy through the air current rendering whoever they
come into contact with violently ill, usually involving gut wrenching
nausea. She has been known to cause mass vomiting on occasion, or
what she refers to as *vomitisation*.
Not only has she cured illnesses (from minor to major) and repaired
gunshot wounds, stab wounds etc, but she has also been able to reattach
severed limbs as well. She places the limb next to where it had been
severed from and her touch seems to magically mend the limb with precision
and perfection. The person can even use the limb again a short time
after the reattachment and there is no visible scarring. If the severed
limb is kept separated from the body for too long a period and is
not put on ice, Remedy's powers would not be able to do anything to
help the individual. She cannot work with dead tissue.
Remedy's healing abilities have provided her with wonderful side effects
in that her body automatically cures any illness she gets, and as
a result her longevity is increased and her ageing process is exponentially
slowed down. The limitations of her powers are yet to be determined,
if indeed she has any. It is speculated that she would not be able
to reattach a severed head but it has never been attempted. It would
considerably more difficult for her to achieve success at this given
the obvious complexity of the procedure, but it hasn't been proven
that she is not capable of sucess regarding this operation at this
time.
Remedy never seems to tire, even after healing somebody and doesn't
require sleep, although she does spend time resting and does sleep
from time to time albeit not from exhaustion, more for relaxation.
Remedy also possesses a photographic memory.
Abilities/Special Skills: She has picked up
a variety of special skills over the years, the more important ones
being several forms of armed and unarmed combat, she holds degrees
in Advanced Human & Mutant Physiology and biology with emphasis
on the heart and brain. On a lighter note, she can down a bottle of
vodka in one, she's a really good poker player and has an uncanny
knack for making people feel incredibly uncomfortable and vulnerable.
She is also a formidable cook, her speciality being her home-made
chocolate cookies.
Weapons Used: Remedy has no need for
weapons but usually ad-libs with whatever is around her at the time. |

Personality:
Beth is some what of a loner and she likes it
that way although sometimes she does yearn for company. Her fleeting
visitors tend to be the majority of her social life and although she
knows many people through her *business* she doesn't really *know*
them and they never stick around long enough to really get to know
her. Because of this, there is an element of her that remains unhappy.
Outwardly to other people she can be incredibly creepy because of
her clingy nature and she can also come across as odd and quirky.
She makes note of all the debts owed to her and is quite obsessed
about making doubly sure that her debtees are fully aware without
a shadow of a doubt that she intends to collect on whatever is owed
to her and she doesn't always take cash. Her current lifestyle has
made her rather eccentric.
Personal Interests: Remedy has a real passion
for collecting unusual darkly coloured furniture for her home. Her
home is one of her main hobbies and has taken her a great deal of
time to decorate it in unusual combinations of dark colours which
most people seem to find offensive some how. She loves calm and tranquil
music, monks chanting and so forth. She also loves cookery (more specifically
confectionery cookery) and playing card games. She's a real card shark
and sometimes spends her designated holiday time in Reno, Las Vegas
cleaning up at the card tables. As far as fashion goes, she likes
to wear tight and revealing clothing, again in dark colours, mainly
reds, purples and browns.
History: Remedy
helped cure Hotshot after Ace, an old aquaintance of hers came calling
on her. After they left, her home was besieged by a group of armed
men and she was arrested for aiding and abetting wanted mutants for
their attempted murder of the President of the United States. She
has been working for the government ever since.
The majority of Remedy's history has not yet been revealed in the
Next-X Universe and remains unknown at this time. |
