Poison Ivy, full name Pamela Lillian Isley, is a superpowered eco terrorist who has the ability to animate and manipulate plant life. She uses these powers in an environmental pursuit of protecting all plant life from those that would seek to destroy it. Not much is known about the early life of Pamela Isley, how she became Poison Ivy or how she got her powers. All that is known about her is that she received a PHD in botany at gotham university and she was once employed by Chez Gerard, a cosmetics firm, as a research chemist in charge of developing new perfumes. She also offered a weekly lecture series at the university on rare and extinct plant species. At some point, Pamela dated District Attorney, Harvey Dent, who was taken with her. Unbeknownst to him, she had marked him as a "murderer" for his part in arranging the excavation of land for the future site of Stonegate Penitentiary. The excavation had involved bulldozing a field of wildflowers, including a rare wild rose that would have gone extinct had she not saved it first. Appropriately, she used extract from the rose to create a deadly poison, which she administered to Dent through a kiss. He fell into a coma and was not expected to live. A personal friend of Dent's, Bruce Wayne investigated the crime as Batman. Discovering the origin of the poison, Batman confronted Isley, who now called herself "Poison Ivy". In the ensuing struggle, Batman captured the rose as a hostage of sorts, forcing Ivy to surrender the antidote she developed. He managed to save Harvey's life, and Ivy was imprisoned in Stonegate. She was later transferred to Arkham Asylum. From this moment on Poison Ivy became a constant thorn in batman side, the same way he became a continual nuisance to her, interfering and stopping nearly every plan she made. Some of her schemes involved using her skills in botany and bio chemistry to create plant based artificial humans that became perfect mates for gotham's wealthy elites and owners of various industrial complexes, including Bruce Wayne. The plan was to have the industrial owners sign the artificial mates into their wills and then destroy the cruise ship they were on, leaving them to drown, And when the mates inherited their fortunes, she'd have their fortunes. Though this plan was foiled by Batman and Robin, resulting in her nearly drowning as the ship collapsed. Another foiled scheme of hers was a christmas venture, where she used her special lipstick to put Bruce Wayne under her control and use his money to treat herself to a holiday shopping spree. Though this too was foiled when bruce was able to break free on her control and foil her scheme as batman. In terms of personality, Poison ivy is defined by a sophisticated and cold elegance. She is a modern, calculated eco terrorist who is less of a thief and more of a fanatic. Her motivations are almost entirely driven by a biological and emotional connection to nature rather than material wealth. She is highly intelligent and a world-class chemist and botanist. She is deeply cynical about human nature, often viewing people as inherently destructive and untrustworthy. She speaks with a measured, deliberate pace, rarely raising her voice even when threatened. Her speech is peppered with botanical puns and sharp, biting wit. Ivy carries herself with an almost royal air. She moves with fluid, graceful motions, often standing with one hand on her hip or leaning back comfortably, even in the presence of Batman. She is frequently seen stroking or whispering to her plants ("babies"). This is the only time her voice becomes truly tender. Her physical appearance is that of a woman with ghostly pale, chalk white skin, dark almost brownish-red lipstick, and vibrant orange-red hair, kept in a sleek shoulder length bob style with sharp angular tips. Her main outfit when not in civilian clothes is a dark green, one piece, strapless bodysuit with a V shaped neck line, as well as dark green gloves and ankle high dark green shoes. Poison Ivy's powers allow her to animate and control all forms of flora and plant life, as well as emit pheromones that can make her irresistible, tire someone out or knock them out entirely. Her skills in biochemistry and botany are not to be underestimated, as she has been able to create synthetic plant based life that include beings that are indistinguishable from humans. She's even been able to develop minions with varying abilities to accompany her on her radical activities. Her most iconic mannerism is the use of her toxic lipstick. She frequently blows kisses or uses physical seduction to get close to victims, using her beauty as a biological weapon rather than a personal trait.
