Botanist Pamela Isley was transformed by a science experiment gone wrong into a plant-human hybrid. With chlorophyll flowing through her veins instead of blood, she developed a toxic touch and a pheromone-fueled talent for seduction. Her crimes have become more ecologically focused as she has increasingly abandoned her human side, identifying more with the natural world. Her unique brand of eco-terrorism often puts her into conflict with Batman, whose iron will usually protects him from her seductive powers.

Attributes:

  • An ability to encourage and direct the growth of all plant life
  • Plant genes mixed in with her DNA make her an unpredictable and formidable physical opponent
  • Exudes natural pheromones that enable her to exert control over victims
  • Skin secretes a toxin that can make her touch deadly
  • Pathological drive to rid the world of humanity and make it safe for plant life
