Praxagora

Origin

Praxagora is a sentient robot from the planet Ataraxia. Ataraxia lies in the Negative Zone. The Ataraxians mastered “stellar containment” technology and used this technology for everything in their culture, even themselves. Each Ataraxian was powered by a miniature star that is carried in their chest. Thanks to their cosmic power sources, they could generate superheated plasma from her “heart” and control it, using it in offensive (blasts) and defensive (force fields) ways. Despite all their destructive power though, Ataraxia was planet of peace. The robots lived in peace with each other and their natural environment. However, when Annihilus discovered this race of super intelligent and incredibly powerful machines, he determined that destroying them would be safer than keeping them alive. All of the Ataraxians were destroyed except for Praxagora, who was locked in a prison with the sole survivors of other races. Praxagora and the others were found and freed by the Super Skrull and chose to fight with him against Annihilus. Praxagora has since then been Super-Skrulls lover and they were taken captive by the Phalanx, she and Super-Skrull were freed by Wraith and have since joined Ronan and Wraith to confront the Phalanx. She died when Ultron took over her body during the assault and Ultron overloaded her internal fusion core to make her a bomb, but Super-Skrull saved everyone in there except her.

Creation

Praxagora was created by writer Javier Grillo-Marxuach and artist Greg Titus for use in the Annihilation: Super Skrull mini series. Praxagora first appears in Annihilation: Super-Skrull #2
