History: Andromeda is the illegitimate daughter of the barbarian Atlantean warlord Attuma and the refined Lady Gelva, who had once been the barbarian's captive briefly two decades ago before being rescued by King Namor. As Attuma's daughter, she was born with a portion of his enhanced strength. For years, however, Lady Gelva kept the fact that Attuma was Andromeda's father from her, stating that Andromeda's father died in action years ago. (Lady Gelva's husband had, in fact, died in combat with Attuma's forces trying to rescue her.)

A woman of action and far stronger than her male counterparts, Andromeda entered the Atlantean military, and distinguished herself in many battles against her father's forces. This brought her to the attention of King Namor, who inducted her as the only female member of the Atlantean Royal Guard.

Recent events, however, have revealed Andromeda's true parentage to both herself and her father. Attuma has since tried to kill her, without success. Andromeda is currently seeking to keep her heritage from becoming public knowledge; at present, only Namor suspects the truth.

Strength Level: Andromeda possesses superhuman strength, enabling her to lift (press) around 25 tons in air.
Known Superhuman Powers: In addition to her superhuman strength, which is a mutation inherited from her father, Andromeda possesses the normal attributes of a member of the offshoot human subspecies known as Homo sapiens mermanus, better known on the surface world as Atlanteans. She is able to breathe underwater indefinitely, although she is unable to live on the surface for more than a few minutes before suffocating.

Also, Andromeda possesses superhuman resilience and resistance to injury, traits she also inherited from her father.
Other Abilities: Andromeda is a highly skilled warrior who has been trained since birth in Atlantean martial arts, both armed and unarmed.
Weapons: Andromeda wields a bronze-headed spear of Phoenician design that has been passed down through her mother's family for millennia.

Role-Playing Notes:

Andromeda is a woman isolated and alone in the crowd. She's stronger than all but one of the males around her in a male-oriented position, with a father she never knew 'till recently trying to kill her, and the only people she can relate to – Namor and Namora – are several social levels above her. Because she's a woman in a man's field, she feels she has to try three times as hard to be considered half as good when the truth is the men around her are intimidated by her. This leads her to taking chances others would consider suicidal.
