Primaid was a White Martian and a member of the alien super-team known as the Hyperclan. Primaid and her seven colleagues came to Earth several years ago, claiming to be the last survivors of a world that had been destroyed by geological upheaval an environmental irresponsibility. Vowing to never allow such catastrophe to even occur again, the Hyperclan allegedly journeyed through space for "a thousand gyres", seeking out planets in need of saving. In truth though, this was just a front to turn public opinion against Earth's more prominent super-heroes, specifically, the Justice League of America.

Primaid participated in an ambitious effort to terra-form the barren Sahara Desert, turning into a lush, fertile paradise. She also took part in the execution of a villain known as Judgment. ^[1]

In short order however, the JLA came to realize that the Hyperclan were not benevolent creatures, but the first wave of a full-scale alien armada intent on conquering the planet.

Primaid fought against Superman outside the Hyperclan citadel at Z'onn Z'orr. Using invisibility, she managed to sucker-punch Superman in the stomach, but Superman learned quickly from the incident and was able to take her down expeditiously. ^[2]

A short time later, Primaid and her allies had a rematch against the League, but this time, it was the Martian Manhunter who proved to be her better.

When the rest of the Hyperclan were defeated, the Martian Manhunter used his powers to wipe their minds and memories, forcing them to assume human forms. Providing them with new identities, he then sent them out to live as productive members of the human race. ^[3]

Powers and AbilitiesEdit

Powers

Martian Physiology: Primaid possesses the same powers as an average Martian. These include:
- Extrasensory Input: Nine different senses.
- Martian Vision: Eyesight which extends the visible spectrum, visual acuity, and allows sight through most objects and barriers. Martian Vision is also similar to Kryptonian heat vision in that it can cause combustible objects to explode.
- Flight: The ability defy gravity and fly through sheer force of will. This ability is psionic in nature, and functions similarly to tactile telekinesis.
- Invulnerability: With the exception of fire, she is invulnerable to nearly all physical attacks. This is due primarily to their shape-shifting talents and the ability to increase the density of her molecular structure.
- Malleable Form: Psionic control over her physical form, even down to the molecular level. As a form of shape-shifting, this power enables Primaid to contort her physical structure to adopt human form, elongate limbs, grow to immense size, and so on. She can also change the substance and material from which her body is made of. This allows her to produce weapons and clothing on ant type. She can maintain the selected form for an indeterminate amount of time without undue risk or strain. This ability allows for the folowing powers:
  - Intangibility: The ability to decrease her molecular density to become incorporeal and thus able to pass through solid objects, as well as increase it to become tougher and stronger.
  - Invisibility: The ability to bend light waves around her body, rendering her invisible to most forms of human detection. Through this byproduct of shape-shifting, she can also alter their body's temperature, allowing her to become invisible to most forms of electronic detection.
  - Size Alteration
- Regeneration: The ability to rapidly heal wound, from minor cuts to regrowing lost limbs. This include the regrowth of major body parts such as the head, heart, or similar primary organs.
- Self-Sustenance: Negating the need to consume food or drink. This also eliminates the need to produce waste.
- Superhuman Speed: Either through flight or natural movement, she can maintain the speed and reflexes far in excess to that of a standard Earth human.
  This also allows:
  - Superhuman Agility
  - Superhuman Reflexes
- Superhuman Endurance: Her endurance is just as formidable as her strength or invulnerability. When not in the presence of fire, she can operate under extreme conditions for an indeterminate period of time without showing signs of fatigue. The exact range of this power is unknown. When in the presence of fire, this endurance diminishes greatly.
- Superhuman Strength: She possesses a strength comparable to that of a Kryptonian under a yellow sun.
- Telepathy: The ability to read the minds of others and project her thoughts to varying degrees. She can also project their mental essences into a gestalt community known as the "Great Mind". Through this, the community can enhance the telepathic strength of other Martians. This power can also enable her to reverse the effects of amnesia or psychological brainwashing.
  - Mind Control: As an extension of her telepathic powers, she can also use the ability to alter a subject's psychological profile, enabling her to manipulate, and in some cases, outright control her chosen target. This practice is greatly discouraged however, and only rarely used.

Abilities

Charisma

Strength level

Superhuman: Primaid is many times stronger than the average human being. Her upper strength levels are comparable to that of a Kryptonian under a yellow sun.

Weaknesses

Martian Physiology: Primaid possesses the same weaknesses as an average Martian. These include:
- Vulnerability to Fire: Martians are much more vulnerable to fire than the average Earth human. At times this has been portrayed as physical, psychological, or a combination of the two. The effect of this is to strip any Martian of their powers as they involuntarily lose control of their body.

NotesEdit

Although Primaid had access to all Martian powers, she only demonstrated Flight, Invisibility and Superhuman Strength.
