That was quick. Well done. I never actually knew she had the personal history she did. I just thought she was a random grunt on a team. I kinda miss her now.

Great job guys.

I remember being disappointed that she didn't stuck around X-Force at the time. I think she could have become a nice addition to the X-men. It's sad she became the token death in AoX.

I think it would be cool if she emerged as a psyche of either Legion or Rogue. Rogue absorbed her in the AoX would so she could still be kicking aorund in her head....and Legion cretaed the entire world so he could have absorbed her into himself when he ended it.

It'd be kinda funny if Rogue started to manifest her powers.

Rogue does indeed have her stored in her mind. Hey, maybe if Rogue passes through the Siege Perilous again, the Tempo psyche can separate and live as an independent entity, sort of like what happened with Carol Danvers! BOOM! Instant resurrection. Then Emma would just have to wipe her memories of AoX and restore her to her original personality.

Or have her try to make sense of the new reality.... Erm... actually... why would the memories of AoX need to be wiped?

Well, Rachel's astral projection had issues remembering her real life due to "Moira" coding over her memories, so I assume that Tempo's psyche would have similar issues.

Well done, guys!

And yay, my vote counted!

They wouldn't need to be wiped, but most people who endured the horrors of the AoX chose to purge those painful memories. I imagine Tempo would choose to as well, since she, ya know, died in that reality.

Was Tempo even sassy? You're just saying that because she's black.

I'd say Tempo was jaded and sarcastic more than sassy.

I also really liked Tempo.  Her powers were unique and would have made a great addition.  She's also one of only a handful of black female mutants. She was one of those reluctant villains who you kind of hope will see the light and make a switch to the X-Men... kind of like Scanner, who I also just did a Profile on.

My love for reluctant baddies goes waaay back to the completely awesome JEM and the HOLOGRAMS cartoon.  Stormer was the nice girl among their nasty mean girl rival band the Misfits and I could tell she really wanted to join the Holograms and was always hoping she would.  *sigh*  They don't make 'em like that anymore!

what were the GOOD aspects of Tempo's life in AoX? She lead a field team, her team mates were her friends, so it wasn't a BAD life(comparitively)
 
I miss when they would write bad guys who weren't 100% pure dicks....

I love when they give minor lackeys a touch or hint of depth and backstory. I feel like writers don't do that enough anymore...

Great job, guys!
