Known Powers:

The main power of Nemesis is rather mysterious in nature. She, somehow, has the ability to sense whatever weakness her foe possesses and unleash a power that works against this weakness. Nemesis seems to be oblivious to this ability and how it works.

In addition to her Nemesis Power, Jennifer can fly, she doesn't breath, can survive extremes of temperature and pressure. She can heal wounds extremely quickly. Her skin resists penetration better than a normal human.

Notes:

Nemesis is a clone of a young girl, Jennifer Powers, who perished in an automobile accident. In addition, her DNA was altered so as to give her superpowers. Nemesis first awoke in a VIPER research station along with Tempest and Terra Fire. Jennifer was being trained and educated subliminally by the masters of the experiment. But once her Nemesis powers surface, they blocked the training procedure. As such, Nemesis is totally unaware of her past life as Jennifer Powers She does have basic language skills, but little more. Physically, Jennifer has the body of a sixteen year old, but the mentally of about seven.

Personally, Nemesis is almost child-like in her view of the world. She is a wide-eyed innocent who can be completely captivated by the most unusual things. This tends to be rather annoying to those around her.

Recently, Jennifer temporarily absorbed some of Nightingale's psyche into her own. From this joining, Jennifer has gleamed some knowledge of medicine, psychology, and Nightingale's own memories. Jennifer is beginning to act more mature from this experience as well.

Jennifer took part in the Young Champions search for Tigress and Tempest. The trail eventually lead to a Lost Realm concealed on a hidden island. On this island existed many creatures long thought extinct on earth. While on the island, Jennifer was befriended by a baby sabre-tooth tiger. Nemesis took the great cat to be her pet, much to Tigress' annoyance, and gave him the name 'Snuggles'.

Nemesis was created by Spectrum, and drawn by Muskateer.
