Who is Arcadia?

History Arcadia DeVille is a mutant who was discovered and kidnapped at a young age by the Damocles Foundation . The Foundation was in reality a front for the genetic offshoot of humanity known as the Deviants, whose racial genetic structure is monstrously unstable. Through the Foundation, the Deviants hoped to re-start their evolution and gain genetic stability. The Foundation experimented on Arcadia to increase and control her powers. After years of torture, Arcadia escaped with the help of a more ethical Deviant, Ulysses Dragonblood, the brother of the Foundation's director Odysseus Indigo. The two were hunted by the Foundation's strike force, the Sword. Eventually reaching Kentucky, Arcadia and Dragonblood encountered the mutant hero Cannonball, who was on leave from the X-Men to visit his family. Cannonball tried to help, but was overcome.
