Lexa Pierce

          

Lexa Pierce is the newest member of Mutant X team.  Although she is a new addition of the team, it appears that her connection to Mutant X and Adam Kane is deeper than anyone realized.  Lexa was a member of Mutant X 1.0. What this means exactly is unknown to the fans at this point.  It appears that Mutant X 1.0 was Adam Kane’s first attempt at forming a Mutant X team.  Obviously this attempt ‘failed’ considering there has been no reference to this original team throughout the prior seasons to the series.

Lexa’s powers at first glance seem to be elemental and molecular. The elemental factor is that she can create laser blasts to fire at people and things.  Also she can create bursts of light to temporally blind people as demonstrated to the Mutant X team in “Into the Moonless Night”.  While the molecular factor is that she can become invisible.  She creates an aura around her body that refracts the light beams around herself and other people (when she is holding their hand). Therefore it appears that she has mixed classification powers.

Lexa was not only a member of Mutant X 1.0, but was also a member of the Genetic Security Agency (GSA) and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).  She currently works for the Dominion, who over the past few 100 years have been policing abuses of science. One of these abuses happens to be Adam’s research at Genomex that created the mutants.

There are a few things known about Lexa’s past.  Lexa came to Mutant X as an arrangement with the Dominion.   Lexa cleaned up Adam’s mess and the Dominion would help Lexa find her brother. Lexa has one brother that is her fraternal twin, whose name is Leo. Lexa’s parents were army intelligence that participated in a fertility experiment.  When Lexa and Leo’s mutations began to show, their parents give them to their bosses under orders. Until age 14, Lexa and Leo were raised in a military facility. When Leo started having problems with being lost in the other personalities that he created, they left the military facility and ended up at Genomex. As it turns out, Lexa only began working for Eckhart as a way to pay for her brother’s medical expenses (Leo is a multiple and can become a wide variety of different people). Lexa ended up killing Leo in Brother’s Keeper

 

Fashion Sense: One major fashion complaint of the fans is that Lexa wears too much eyeliner.  Other than that her fashion isn’t too bad.  Her clothing isn’t really conservative but it isn’t trashy either.  It’s on the borderline of being classy. The worst outfit that she wore was the packing wrap red shirt from “Into the Moonless Night”.  Other than that her clothing really hasn’t been that bad.
