Biography[]
Born in a war torn South American village, a young Mantis retreated into a basement, which turned out to be a torture chamber where she was accidently locked in it, forced to hear the screams and murders of her fellow villagers and had to keep herself hydrated by drinking dirty water from the chamber. The water made her hallucinate and go insane until she saw a praying mantis. She saw how the mantis covered its ears to block out the screams and remembered that female mantises eat the males after mating.
She then ate the corpses of her dead male villagers like the mantis and escaped the chamber, having absolutely no sanity or feelings whatsoever. She later joined the Beauty and the Beast corps, recruited by Liquid Ocelot, and became the leader. Mantis later had her entire mind taken over by Psycho Mantis' spirit.
