Major Story Arcs
Fall of X
When Orchis attacked Krakoa, resulting in Krakoan mutants being dead or on the run, Doom's prediction came true. Surviving members of the X-Men attempted to enter Latveria, believing their mutants were being held against their will. Members of the Seven Daggers quickly fought back against the X-Men, eventually defeating them. As a show of good faith, they promised their assistance.
Powers and Abilities
Plant Control: Part of Nerium's physiology is plant matter. As such, she is able to extend her arms, of which she has four, like vines at will.
