Additional Information

Powers
  • Water Breathing: As an Atlantean, Andromeda can breath underwater without aid.
  • Body Resistance: Her tougher Atleantean skin provides Poor body armour.
  • Swimming: Andromeda can move though the water at Good speed.

Limitations

Like all Homo mermani, except for the Sub-Mariner and Namorita, Andromeda cannot breathe out of water unaided. She is capable of lasting approximately 10 minutes on the surface without artificial means for intaking oxygen before she begins to suffocate. However, in order to survive in the surface world, Andromeda used a serum employed on past occasions by the Atlaneans Krang and Dorma. When imbibed by a Homo mermanus, it allows him or her to absorb oxygen and expel carbon dioxide directly through the skin for a period of approximately 12 hours. The serum also alters his or hers skin pigmentation to that of an average Caucasian human for the same amount of time.

Personal History

Very little is known about Andromeda. She claims to be a major in the Atlantean armed forces. Since Atlantean society, including the military, is so male-dominated, she says that she believed she could advance no further within it. Therefore, she asserts, she came to the surface world, inspired by the stories of the adventures that the Sub-Mariner, Atlantis's former ruler, had there, and sought out the team of adventures to which he once belonged, the Defenders. At first Andromeda posed as a surface woman, aided by a serum that enabled her to breathe air and that changed her skin color, and called herself Andrea McPhee. She has recently revealed to the Defenders that she is a member of the Atlantean race.
