Fictional character biography
Titania was a protegee of Auntie Freeze and a founding member of the Grapplers, along with Poundcakes, Screaming Mimi, and Letha.
Titania was a mercenary and former wrestler turned criminal agent for Roxxon Oil.[1][2] She fought the Thing, Giant-Man, Quasar,[3] and Dazzler,[4] before going straight and joining the Unlimited Class Wrestling Federation with her former teammates.[5]
Titania was killed in the shower by the Scourge of the Underworld disguised as her fellow Grappler, Golddigger[6] - a fact which raised the question that there may be more than one Scourge at that time. Her friend Letha attempted to track down her killer(s), only to fall victim to the Scourge herself in the "Bar With No Name".[7]
Titania was later among the seventeen criminals, all murdered by the Scourge, to be resurrected by Hood using the power of Dormammu as part of a squad assembled to eliminate the Punisher.[8] She was given seduction-based powers by the Hood, and has taken the name Lascivious.[9]
Powers and abilities
Titania possessed superhuman strength allowing her to lift approximately 2 tons.
As Lascivious, DeVito has the ability to tap open the part of the brain that regulates passion, forcing her enemies to fall deeply in love with her or anyone she chooses. She also retains her superhuman strength.
