Lexa

Lexa is a Chromatic Molecular, able to bend light to make herself and those she is touching invisible. Unlike Molecular Stealth New Mutants, Lexa is also able to shoot penetrating lasers from her fingertips to wound and kill her enemies, and create blinding light flashes with her hands to temporarily blind her foes. There is a time limit on Lexa's invisibility, and while invisible her heat outline can still be seen with infra-red goggles or Feral vision. She is also a skilled martial artist.

Lexa and her twin brother Leo were the children of two army intelligence operatives who participated in a government fertility experiment. When Lexa and Leo began to display New Mutant abilities, their parents sent them to be raised in a military facility. Leo's powers began to spiral out of control when the twins were 14, so Lexa left the facility to find help for him. She negotiated with Mason Eckhart to obtain free medical care for Leo in exchange for her becoming a GS Agent. Lexa tried to leave The GSA when she found that Leo was being tortured instead of being treated, but she was recaptured and surgically implanted with a neural implant to control her actions. Adam Kane failed to remove the implant during her two-year membership on his early Mutant X 1.0 Team, so Lexa left him to work as a mercenary. Learning that Leo had escaped from Genomex, Lexa traded her services as a Dominion operative for their help in her search for him. Adam worked back channels to assign her to Mutant X once again.
