 Gay League - Victoria Montesi
However, when pages from the Darkhold are distributed to unsuspecting mortals by a demonic Dwarf and Nash is rendered quadriplegic and comatose following an explosion intended to kill Victoria, Victoria joins with occult expert Louise Hastings and Interpol agent Sam Buchanan to recover the pages as the Darkhold Redeemers.
When last seen, Victoria was being spirited away by the Midwife, a creation of Chthon's who nevertheless rebelled against her master's rebirth and sought to help Victoria recover from her ordeal; what has become of her since then, as well as whether or not Nash ever recovered, is unknown.
Except for a period when she briefly possessed demonic abilities obtained from a Darkhold page, Victoria Montesi had no superhuman physical powers, although as the daughter of Chthon, she no doubt had the potential to manifest such powers; her half-demon nature granted her visions directing her to the missing Darkhold pages.
