Elektra Natchios |
She was the daughter of a Greek diplomat and girlfriend of the blind American Matt Murdock, later to be known as Daredevil. When her father died at a crime scene (not because of a crime), something broke in her, and disillusioned and full of anger she abandoned the good things of life and went to Japan where she met the trainer Stick who taught her all martial arts. She got involved with a band called The Hand, first as an enemy, then as a tool and later as an enemy again when she realized being a tool. She left the Hand and Japan, but the Hand didn't leave her.
In New York, on an assignment she met Matt Murdock again, now in the person of Daredevil. They still felt for each other, but the gap between he being good and she being bad was too big to bridge.
She did jobs for Kingpin, a king in organized crime and becomes a top killer. When se fails a job, not because of lack of skills but because of her character, the former Kingpin's top killer sees his chance to regain his throne and kills her with her own sai. After that things become vague. Some say she's resurrected and maybe she is.
