ISCA THE UNBEATEN

 

 

ISCA THE UNBEATEN

Real Name: Isca
First Appearance: X-Men (Vol. 5) #12, September 2020

Powers:
Isca the Unbeaten is an omega-level mutant born with a power described as an inability to lose. The mechanism for Isca’s power has not been defined, and it does not seem to directly or obviously affect her environment or her own body (i.e.: She does not adapt new traits or powers in reaction to threats, and she doesn't exert influence over her surroundings to actively change them to her advantage. She simply wins).

Her power is expressed through her physical prowess, including incredible agility, reaction time, accuracy, ambidexterity and more. If challenged, she can act with phenomenal precision and strike a target even while blindfolded. It also extends into her cognitive faculties, anything from guessing what number someone is thinking of to identifying weaknesses for advanced tactical analysis. It even allows her to forecast the future, compelling her to change sides in a war once her power ascertains that her current allies will be defeated. This indicates a limit to her abilities, for any given army will not win simply because she is associated with them. It's also unknown if she could choose to lose (remaining with the losing side, for instance), or if she has a biological compulsion to follow her power's influence.
