| Origin |
| Orphaned by a Eastern
European revolution she lived a transient existence across Europe during
her adolescence and early adulthood surviving by
criminal activities of various sorts. Joining the ranks of the
terrorist group
HYDRA, she was one of the few female agents of that
time. Promoted to the New York terrorist cell, she donned her green
costume, dyed her hair, and assumed the title of Madame Hydra.
When her relationship with HYDRA turned sour, Madame Hydra
inspired to other goals. Killing the villain who was currently using
the identity of the Viper, she assumed his name and leadership of the
Serpent Squad
adopting more venomous techniques as the new Viper.
