Powers/Abilities: Marionette is permanently shrunk down to 10.5 inches tall. She possesses exceptional agility, and can control minds.

History: Marion Henderson's original ability was a form of transformation but before she ever learned to control it the severe inferiority complex form which she suffered and interacted with her power and reduced her to a minuscule size, less than a foot tall.

    Driven to seek a cure for fear of shrinking away to nothing, she delved deeply into eastern philosophy and became a yoga master. Her intense self control simultaneously halted, but did not reverse, her diminution and empowered her to hypnotically enthrall those around her. After years of paranoia, this sudden talent transformed her into the villainess Marionette, one of the cruelest members of the Crushers.
