Elektra does not yet know she is a mutant. Until recently her life has been fairly normal with a few exceptions. Her mother died during childbirth which left Elektra without a mother figure until her teens when she trained under a female martial arts instructor.

She studied dance at a very young age, but was never able to compete. She never understood why she didn’t excel at dance since she was excellent at learning the steps and keeping time. Eventually she abandoned dance in favor of learning martial arts from a neighbor and it was something she was naturally gifted at. Master Stone, her teacher, was retired and in her 50s at the time and did not hold regular classes, but made exceptions for people that stood out to her. Elektra stood out to Master Stone, and she trained Elektra after school on most weekdays. Master Stone grew to be a mother figure for Elektra.

Living At The X-Mansion
Phase 1
It was while trying out one such dojo that Elektra met Kyle Gibney, who was visiting Doug Ramsey at his training. Then a month later, following a random meeting with Marie D'Ancato, Elektra was stunned to find her new friend was a mutant when they were involved in a bus accident. Elektra herself received a head injury, but it proved to be less severe than Rogue had first thought - or something else was at work.
Phase 2
Physical Characteristics
Height: 5'3"
Weight: 130lbs

Other Features: She has an inner strength combined with a statuesque physique that gives people the impression that she taller than she actually is.
Powers
Her mutation has given her two incredible, but subtle powers. The first is that she can fully heal from just about any major wound or damage to her body. For minor wounds the rate at which she heals is not any faster than a normal human. For major wounds she heals at an accelerated rate until the wound appears minor, and then the normal human healing rate takes over. With time any scars, bone damage, or other signs of physical trauma will go away. With her background in martial arts she has leveraged this power, without realizing it, as she just assumes she has been lucky to never have gotten a scar.
The second power she has is she can recover from fatal wounds, and come back to life if the damage to her body is not completely overwhelming. The time it takes for her to come back to life will vary based on the wounds, and the environment she is in.
