Persuasion-- The Girl in Purple
So, I'm new to this forum, and also new to the love of Alpha Flight (and all its incarnations). I know the original team from Uncanny X-men, but not much beyond that.
Persuasion. She's a girl who is purple. She seems pretty cool, but I don't quite understand her powerset.
Does she have to make skin contact with a person for her to take over someones mind? Does she still have to verbally command people? How does someone break free of the control? So many questions about her.. so little time
Hiya NorthernLights, welcome to the loonie-bin, make yerself at home in the cupboard, don't let nasty things certain unnamed editors have set scare you off.
As for you question, first I encourage you to have a look here: http://alphanex.alphaflight.net/index.php/Persuasion
To answer you question briefly, she does not need to make contact, just has to in close proximity with air contact. She has always used verbal commands to execute her commands, in theory it's not required. To break control, they have to be separated from her proximity, being dunked under water does the trick too.

I'm pretty sure she just has to speak. She has a cousin named Murmur that has to touch in order to control someone. How they are cousins, nobody knows lol.
When has it been revealed Murmur and Persuasion were related?
Seagle said it after the book was cancelled. People may not considered "canon" but I do.
Thought it was an interview, he even said Flex was Wolverine's sin.
I think he teased that he might be his son, but didn't come right out and say it. I think.
Edit: Wolvie suposed to discover his son in Origins, isn't he? Flex never lost his powers during HoM. Hmmmm
From what I saw at one site, Wolverine's son doesn't have Flex's powers and doesn't look like him. But then again, Flex isn't real so one can make him look like anything and have any kind of powers after M-day. Not like Sasquatch looks different with every artist.
I doubt it's Flex anyway.
Welcome, NorthernLights!
Keep your stick on the ice.
Live it.
The son from Origins is definetly not Flex, he has a blue mohawk (forget what color it was and could be dyed.) and is a murderous monster. I'm pretty sure it's just a new character
Great, that's what Marvel needs. Wolverine, X-23 and X-24.

ALPHA FLIGHT IS RESURRECTED, LONG LIVE ALPHA FLIGHT!
But then again the art in volume 2 seemed to change with every issue, so who REALLY knows what Flex lookedl ike, for all we know he COULD have had a blue mohawk!
No, that's Earthmover

No kid likes being reminded he was a mistake...and you had to add the moral judgment of the conception, didn't you?
