History
Madeline Yung was a victim of human trafficking who wound up in the hands of the Pharo Company, working at their club and testing facilities. Madeline was used to screen guests and extort information from their minds. It was rare they used her given her abilities and generally kept her in a sedated state.

As a child runaway Madeline was very close with fellow Pharo captive River. They were brought to the project together and because of Madeline's abilities could communicate from their isolated cells telepathicly.

After being rescued by Beatrice and the Defenders, Madeline is the first to start working with them because of her ability to sense their intentions.

Powers & Abilities
Madeline has an array of psychic abilities. Primarily, Madeline has the ability to read minds. In order to do so she needs to be in close proximity, though as she develops her abilities her range goes further. Madeline can search through people's minds aswell as being able to sense plans, thoughts, and intentions. Madeline can also communicate telepathically.

As she develops her abilities, Madeline also develops the ability to control and manipulate the minds she is in contact with. At first mentally, but slowly she develops the ability to physical control people's reactions and impulses. Because of this Madeline develops the ability to create mental illusions like River, though never as real or powerful as theirs.
