Sonic Hypnosis: Lorelei has Amazing singing powers, giving her the ability to paralyze men. Any mortal male who hears Lorelei's song (effective range of 10 areas) must make a Psyche FEAT roll vs. Amazing intensity to avoid being paralyzed by Lorelei's voice. The victim's Psyche, for the purpose of this FEAT
roll, has a -2 CS modifier. Immortal beings, such as Thor or Hercules, are immune to her voice. A failed roll means that a character is paralyzed as long as Lorelei continues singing. If a character succeeds in the FEAT roll, he is free to act during the same round (the roll is automatic and does not require a
separate action), but must continue making the FEAT roll every round she sings. Lorelei cannot continue her song past 20 rounds. When she finishes singing, those paralyzed by it take two rounds to come to their senses.
History:
(X-Men I#63 (fb) - BTS) - Using untapped radiations in the Savage Land, Magneto built a machine and turned several of the local indigenous people there into super-powered Mutates (Amphibius, Barbarus, Brainchild, Equilibrius, Gaza, Lupo, Piper) who were loyal to him.
(X-Men I#63) - While the Mutates fought the X-Men (Angel (Warren Worthington), Beast (Henry McCoy), Cyclops, Iceman, Marvel Girl (Jean Grey)) and Ka-Zar, Magneto developed another Mutate, Lorelei. He used her to enthrall all the male heroes with her voice, but Marvel Girl remained free. Marvel Girl used her telekinetic powers to fight Magneto and destroy the machine, and the Mutates reverted back to their savage states.
(X-Men I#62) - Magneto, using the name Creator, introduced the captive Angel to Gaza, Amphibius, Barbarus, Lupo, and Brainchild, then, having convinced Angel that the Mutates were rejects from their various tribes, sent Angel to stop his teammates.
(X-Men I#63) - The Mutates (except Brainchild) followed Angel and attacked Ka-Zar and the X-Men. Despite his added strength, Barbarus was quickly knocked out by blows from the Beast. The heroes managed to defeat new Mutate Lorelei, and Marvel Girl managed to destroy the mutator machine, and the Mutates were reverted back to their savage states. Magneto was believed dead and the heroes departed.
(Avengers I#110 (fb) - BTS) - Magneto returned to the Savage Land and restored the Mutates' powers to them, though they had no memory of him doing this.
(Avengers I#105 (fb) - BTS) - A group of Mutates (Amphibius, Barbarus, Brainchild, Equilibrius, Gaza, Lorelei, Lupo) kidnapped some scientists from South America and returned them to the Savage Land. They hoped to use the scientists to create more Mutates.
(Avengers I#105) - When the Avengers (Hawkeye (Clint Barton), Iron Man (Tony Stark), Scarlet Witch, Vision), Black Panther (T'Challa), and Sif came to the Savage Land to investigate. They swiftly defeated the Mutates, so Equilibrius summoned Lorelei who enthralled all the men with her song. Scarlet Witch and Sif prepared to attack her, but Vision (who was resistant to her powers) knocked her out instead. The Avengers retrieved the scientists and departed.
(Defenders I#15 (fb) - BTS) - Magneto recruited Lorelei, of whom he had grown quite fond, and Blob, Mastermind, and Unus the Untouchable to form a new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants.
(Defenders I#15) - The Brotherhood worked with Magneto to form Alpha the Ultimate Mutant when they were attacked by Professor X and the Defenders (Doctor Stephen Strange, Hulk (Bruce Banner), Nighthawk, Valkyrie). Lorelei mesmerized Professor X and Nighthawk with her song, but Professor X managed to turn on Nighthawk's jetpack and he crashed into Lorelei, stopping her. Alpha then awakened.
(Defenders I#16) - Alpha fought the heroes then sealed them in the cavern, teleporting the Brotherhood to the United Nations at Magneto's instruction. Magneto delivered an ultimatum to the dignitaries there to grant mutants power, but the heroes attacked again. Alpha, who'd been slowly evolving, judged the Brotherhood to be evil, however, and reduced them to infants.
(Uncanny X-Men#104 - BTS/Champions#17 (fb) - BTS)/Super-Villain Team-Up I#14 (fb) - BTS) - Eric the Red (Davan Shakari) restored the infants into adulthood on Muir Island, where they'd been kept by Moira MacTaggert.
(Captain America I#415 (fb) - BTS) - Back in the Savage Land, Lorelei partnered herself with the High Technician, a former pupil of the High Evolutionary who had been employed by A.I.M. to assist in mining the Savage Land's Vibranium. The High Technician used his former master's devices to "evolve" local dinosaurs into humanoid servants for A.I.M. When Ka-Zar discovered the operation, he was turned over to Lorelei and mesmerized to serve them.
(Captain America I#415) - The Falcon came to the Savage Land alongside Captain America and other allies. Discovering the High Technician's fortress, he met Lorelei and the High Technician, and Lorelei seemingly placed him under the control of her powers (however, the Falcon's infra-red lenses shielded him from Lorelei's power, and he feigned servitude).
(Captain America I#416) - The High Technician showed the Falcon around his facility, and explained his partnership with A.I.M. He ordered the Falcon to bring his friends to them so that Lorelei could use her powers on them as well. The Falcon returned with Captain America and Diamondback, but before Lorelei could use her powers the Falcon warned his allies; Diamondback threw a tear gas diamond at Lorelei to disrupt her concentration, then struck her unconscious.
(Captain America I#417) - A.I.M. sent their agent Macross in the armor of Terminus to collect the High Technician. Lorelei remained unconscious as the High Technician was taken away.
