Biography
Origin
Kwannon
It was known that she came to be raised as an assassin and an 'enemy of peace'. However, she fell in love with a boy and gave birth to a daughter. This came to displease her masters who killed Kwannon's lover and took her daughter away as the child was deemed a weakness. (Fallen Angels v2 #1)
Rebirth
Sometime afterwards, Psylocke was part of a group of X-Men that were investigating the return of Wolverine on Madripoor where her soul was absorbed by Sapphrie Styx leaving her body dead. Betsy Braddock's soul eventually managed to escape causing Styx's body to explode whereupon Psylocke instinctively reforms a new body from Sapphire's soul power thus restoring herself in her original form. A result of this was the resurrection of Kwannon in her own body that returned to life where she ambushed several of Viper's henchmen at her warehouse as she sought answer to some questions. (Hunt for Wolverine: Mystery in Madripoor v1 #4) After the X-Men disappeared, public opinion turned against Mutants with more aggressive acts being done against the race. During this time, Joseph emerged and sought to have humanity fear Mutants again as he believed this was what kept their people alive. Thus, he disguised himself as Magneto and made a public attack in an effort to instil fear. He was defeated by Cyclops and his allies with Joseph taken into custody but then Kwannon emerged from the shadows where she cut off his head before he could be taken away. (Uncanny X-Men v5 #16)
Upon settling on Krakoa, she fully embraced the name of Psylocke thus forcing Betsy Braddock to use a new code-name. Kwannon then received a dream about a threat in the world called Apoth. With several of the X-Men, she ventured off Krakoa in secret in order to battle this threat where she came to ally with Mister Sinister to enlist his resources. (Fallen Angels v2 #1)
