Last week I featured Rogue whom was taken in by Irene Adler (Destiny). Personally, I had not heard of this character and was intrigued. Especially, since she shares the name of Sherlock Holmes love interest. Therefore this week I am featuring Destiny.
Name: Irene Adler
Destiny
First Appearance: X-men #141 (1981)
Quick Bio: Irene was born into a wealthy family in Austria in the 19th century. She was originally overwhelmed with her ability and spent nearly a year writing her visions into books. Destiny met Mystique when trying to understand her powers more. The two became lifetime companions and eventually lovers. They took in Rogue. Destiny helped Mystique create the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. Later she was killed by Legion-an event which she had foreseen (1989 issue)
Looking at it now, I realize why I had never heard of Destiny. She didn't seem to last in the Marvel Universe to long. First appearance was in 81 and she died in 89. Check out the full story of Destiny here.
