In space, a millennia long war is raged between the Kherubim and the Daemonites. Daemonites hail from the planet Daemon and are a bestial race bent on death and destruction. The Kherubim hail from the planet Khera and are immortal beings resembling humans, but possessing various superhuman abilities.
Charis is an Adrastean, a lower caste culture on Khera who ran the criminal underworld on the planet. The Adrastea wield psionic powers, which allowed them to excel in espionage and assassination. Living on the streets of Khera, Charis became and excellent thief, in fact the best that was ever produced by the Adrastea. On a chance encounter, she stole Kheran Lord Majestros' dagger. After a few moments, Majestros tracked her down but before he could apprehend her he was shot down by a couple of Daemonites that had been following him. They were intent on killing him and said that they would spare Charis if she ran away. Before the killing blow could be delivered, she lept into battle, killing one of the Daemonites and being saved by Majestros before the other could kill her.
Charis requested a reward from Majestros for saving his life, and he agreed to anything she wanted. She wanted to be inducted into the Coda Sisterhood, and Majestros used his political connections to get her in. Before Charis, the Adrastea were forbidden from being admitted into the Coda due to their lower class status. Her Coda membership allowed Charis to elevate her social status and become someone that mattered. Her appointed trainer was Lady Zannah of the Red Lament, also know as Zealot. The Coda were appalled at her very prescence and they showed her no sympathy during her training.
During her first night at the Tower of Red Lament, Charis was able to accomplish two tasks that were otherwise unheard of. She was able to break out of the tower and into Majestros' palace, the two most fortified stuctures on the planet. In the palace, she invaded his bedchamber and spent her first night with him, consumating their relationship.
Sometime later, the High Council of Khera had learned of their relationship and ordered Majestros to end it. He was to perfrom his duty as and up and comming High Lord and mate with Lady Zannah to try and produce viable offspring. Meanwhile, Charis was undergoing the Blood Dance, a Coda ritual, as her final test before being given warriar status. Usually, the individual only faces five opponents, but the Coda were intent on allowing Charis to live, so she face countless opponents. Fortunately for her, she won the battle and was inducted into the Coda.
Majestros told Charis that he was to take part in the next Union and that they were finished. In retaliation, she punched him in the face, breaking her hand and leaving him to wallow in sorrow. On the night of their Union, Charis breached the Tower of Red Lament and watched Majsetros and Zannah procreate. With her heart broken, she turned her back on her love and became one of the fiercest warriors produced by the Coda, if not the best, second to only Zealot. At one point, she served as Savant’s, Zealot’s supposed sister, bodyguard when she was a child.
In early human history, a number of Kherubim and Daemonites crash-landed on Earth thereby effectively bringing their war to the planet. The Daemonites sought total dominion over the planet and enslaved as many humans as they could. The stranded Kherubim opposed the Daemonites and fought to liberate the planet and protect humanity. Their alien presence influenced many ancient myths through the ages.
Charis was one of the Kherubim stationed on Earth and she was designated to infiltrate the Daemonite ranks, pretending that she had turned her back on her Kherubim heritage. In 995 B.C., the Daemonites sought a piece of the Creation Engine, the most powerful weapon ever created, which lied at the bottom of the Mount Vesuvius volcano in Italy. Charis was present when the Daemonites unearthed the piece, and the Daemonite commander Skarak wanted to test her loyalty to his cause.
The Daemonites had captured Zealot and insisted that Charis execute her in order to prove her worth. Zealot, a high-ranking member of the Coda, ordered Charis to follow thru and kill her, but she instead fought off the Daemonites present and saved Zealot’s life. After the battle was completed and the Creation Engine piece was secured by the Brotherhood of the Blade, Zealot charged Charis with the crime of dereliction of duty for not killing her and was prepared to prosecute her in the court of the Coda. Charis instead challenged Zealot to a trial by combat in order to prove her worthiness as a member of the Coda.
Charis opted for unarmed combat against Zealot, and proved to be her equal, with neither of them getting the upper hand in the fight. It was then that she revealed that she learned the truth about Savant being Zealot and Majestros’ daughter. Before they could finish their fight, the Daemonites attacked the Coda stronghold on the Isle of Lesbos in Greece. Charis, rendered unconscious in the first salvos of the assault, was saved by Zealot and taken to safety. When Zealot left to find reinforcements, Charis stayed behind to help defend their home. She witnessed the death of all the Coda members present, about 200 in entirety, and she alone was spared.
It was at this time that Raven, of the Brotherhood of the Blade, came forward and revealed that the Brotherhood had betrayed Khera to the Daemonites and they were setting Charis up to take the fall for the betrayal and the murder of the Coda. As an empath, Charis had absorbed all the anger and pain from the slain Coda and she was now an instrument of revenge. During their battle, Raven also revealed that the Brotherhood was going to use the untapped potential in the human genome to take over Khera and Daemon. Raven was able to stab Charis with a blade he had forged from the Creation Engine piece they recovered and thought the battle was over. She was able to inflict a similar wound on him before making her escape by jumping off a cliff, taking the blade with her, and landing in the ocean.
Charis survived, thanks to a group of fishermen who pulled her out of the ocean and nursed her back to health. She went underground, plotting to undermine the bladesmen’s master plan for the human race. She was sought after by all Kherubim as a traitor to her race. The Brotherhood manipulated the human genome throughout the millennia through breeding programs and inserting certain mutagens into human DNA. From time to time, an activator, a person with the ability to tap into the mutagens in human DNA, is produced, and it has been assumed that Charis, now referred to as Nemesis, appeared to kill the activators before the bladesmen could use them to carry out their master plan.
At some point, Charis, going by the alias of Ms. Adrastea, asked Sherlock Holmes and his friend Watson for assistance in solving a murder case. The bodies of several women were burnt beyond recognition in London, England. Posing as a prostitute, Charis was approached by Reverend Morgan of Saint Chad’s Mission for Fallen Women in Brick Lane. This reverend offered her salvation for her soul, and upon refusing, he revealed his true purpose. Morgan was actually an agent for the bladesmen and he had been purifying prostitutes by burning their bodies after he murdered them. After a grand chase, the trio were able to subdue Morgan with Holmes ramming Charis’ blade through him, effectively ending his life.
Nemesis had a run in with Majestros in Snakeskin, Arizona in the year 1876. Majestros had come to apprehend her while she was staying in a room above a saloon in the Wild West. Charis had come to avenge the murders of an entire wagon train by the Daemonites that had been running the town of Snakeskin. After killing all of the vermin, she only escaped after the local females gathered around Majestros to personally thank him.
In 1929, during the Prohibition, Charis found herself in Chicago, Illinois. Entering Floozy McCracklin's Speakeasy, she located local mob boss, Ceasar. Effortlessly taking out his bodyguards, she questioned him on the location of Billy "The Blade" Raven. At some point, Nemesis had deduced that Raven had been lacing his bootleg liquor with mutagens, infusing anyone who drank it with latent superhuman abilities. In the past, Nemesis had been onboard the Titanic and Raven had sent a number of assasins to kill her. Nemesis came face to face with Raven on the Detroit River in the winter of 1929. She destroyed the liquor and barely managed to escape and avoid a one on one battle with him.
The hunt for the latest activator brought Nemesis back out into the open in the present. Nemesis murdered an entire convoy of bladesmen protecting the latest activator, but before she could sink her blade into the activator’s chest, she saw that it was a little girl. The bladesmen had gotten smart and bred a child activator in the hopes that Charis would not kill her. It was at this time that Zealot and Majestros, now a famous superhero referred to as Mr. Majestic, arrived with two other members of the Wildcats, Savant and Grifter. Nemesis battled them all maintaining the upper hand throughout the fight since the Wildcats believed she would kill Kara, the child activator, if they advanced.
She escaped with Kara and made it to one of her safe houses. While holding the girl captive, Nemesis bonded with her, forming a quick but close friendship. The Daemonites arrived and managed to take her by surprise, but she was able to hold her own until Majestros arrived looking to take Kara back and to kill Charis. After encasing her self in a protective shield with Kara, she had no choice but to blow up her safe house, with the Daemonites and Majestros inside. He survived and used his former relationship with Nemesis to take her down.
Majestros took Charis and Kara with him to Halo Corporation in New York City. While their, Charis revealed the truth behind her “betrayal” and it was confirmed when Savant ran a DNA scan on the men she killed to get Kara and identified them as members of the Brotherhood. Before her release could be facilitated, a spacecraft emerged from a bleed portal and fired hundreds of projectiles into the Halo building with Charis and the Wildcats inside.
In actuality, the projectiles were an amalgam of bladesmen and Shaper’s Guild warriors, called Scimitars. Majestros saved Charis, at the last minute, from being cut in half by a Scimitar. After the bladesmen bombarded the building with plasma canons, Charis was the last one standing, thanks to her force field. Following the Scimitar that had captured Kara onto the bladesmen ship, she came face to face with Raven of the Brotherhood. She was too late to stop him from activating the girl, and the resulting blast knocked her off the flying ship and into unconsciousness, plummeting to the ground.
Nemesis came to right before she hit the ground and was able to partially activate her force field, but with her stealth suit damaged, it was not working properly. Landing on a car, she was again knocked unconscious. When she awoke, she was with Zealot, Majestic, Grifter and Savant. It was at this time that Zealot called a truce with Nemesis and offered her the chance to finally avenge her slain sisters of the Coda.
Nemesis and the Wildcats battled the human mutates in New York City, while The Autority battled in Los Angeles and Backlash led an assault in Chicago. During the battle, she shared mutual flirtation with Cash Cole, the Grifter, and also demonstrated that she could use her force field for offensive means, namely supercharging her punches.
Savant located the Brotherhood's battleship in space, and teleported Grifter, Zealot, and Nemesis in using the Halo teleportation system. They found that Raven had thousand upon thousands of people housed in stasis pods as hostages, so that the 'Cats wouldn't blow up his base. In fact, he had kidnapped the whole population of New Jersey and planned to blow up each of the pods unless Nemsis and crew laid down their weapons and surrendered.
Not one for surrender, Nemesis used her genetic grenades geared towards the Brotherhoods specific Kheran DNA. Savant was able to gain access to the Brotherhood Bladeship computers and set it to selfdestruct after teleporting the people of New Jersey back from whence they came. Nemesis was able to locate Kara and free her, but she was about to be shot by a Daemonite. If not for Grifter taking the hit, she would have ben killed. During the fight, the fourth homing signal that Savant was tracking in order to teleport everyone back to Earth was damaged. She gave her's to Kara, kissed Grifter goodbye, and told Zealot to tell Majestros that had she not sacrificed herself, she would have showed him what he was missing for the past three millenia.
After Savant teleported the others out, Charis faced Raven in a final showdown. Raven taunted her, telling her that while she was on her grand crusade to stop him, she became one of the monsters she had been hunting by killing so many. She was able to slice his face with her blade, but he was also able to slice her abdomen with his blade. Nemesis was able to disarm him, and with both Creation blades in her grasp, she shoved them into Ravens gut and through the ships glass. When she removed her blades, Raven was sucked into space through the holes and the entire ship was decompressed.
Utilizing her shields, Nemesis was able to survive decompression, but she was about to give up the good fight and drop her shields. It was at this time that Majestic flew up from Earth and saved her from being sucked out into space. Back and the Halo Safehouse in New York City, Majestros asked her to stay with him and be with him as well as join the Wildcats. Sharing one more passionate kiss with her love, Charis declined his offer and left to seek out more adventure.
As a member of the Coda, Nemesis is trained in numerous forms of combat and is second to only Zealot in skill, but just barely. She is proficiently skilled in various weapons, but she seems to prefer a bladed weapon. Her blade of choice is made out of a shard of the Creation Engine, the most powerful weapon in existence, and is capable of piercing through anything, including the flesh of Mr. Majestic. Nemesis wears a stealth suit that is highly resistant to physical assault, but does not render her invulnerable. The suit is also capable of generating force fields strong enough to withstand devastating explosions. Her natural Kheran heritage allots her a degree of super strength, endurance and dexterity. Charis also utilizes a number of different weapons. Among them, a genetic concussion grenade that warps the bodies of targets by destabilizing their genetic structures. She also uses an assault bike that is capable of flight at great speeds and firing bolts of concussive force. As an Adrastean, Nemesis has a natural psionic ability that she channels into empathy. This is her most potent weapon since it allows her to read the emotions of others. When she comes into contact with the bodies of murder victims, her empathic abilities kick in and she is consumed with the need to avenge the deceased.
