Fictional character biography

edit

Camille "Cammi" Benally was an average 10-year-old human girl with an absentee father and alcoholic, abusive mother in the small town of Coot's Bluff, Alaska. She encounters Drax the Destroyer when a prison ship containing Drax crash-lands on Earth just outside her town. Cammi befriends Drax and helps him protect Coot's Bluff from Paibok, Lunatik, and the Blood Brothers. A second prison ship later arrives and arrests both Drax and Cammi.[2]

After arriving on Xandar, Cammi joins Drax, Nova and the other Guardians of the Galaxy to take on Annihilus and his Wave.[3] Surviving Annihilus' attack on the intergalactic prison known as the Kyln, Drax and Cammi team up with the last member of the Xandarian Nova Corps, Richard Rider.[volume & issue needed] Together they fight against the advancing Annihilation Wave as Drax trains Nova to be a warrior.[4] During a doomed battle between the Annihilation Wave and the United Front, Drax stays behind to fight off the invaders while Cammi and others finish the evacuation. Drax leaves Cammi behind with the United Front as he goes to rescue Moondragon.[volume & issue needed] After single-handedly killing Thanos, Drax returns with Moondragon, but with no report of Cammi's whereabouts.[volume & issue needed] Cammi is later seen, alive and allied with one of Thanos' powerful miniature assistants.[5]

Avengers Arena

edit

Cammi is one of sixteen teenagers kidnapped by Arcade, who forces them to fight each other to the death in his latest version of Murderworld.[6] As the games in Murderworld begin, Cammi fights Rebecca Ryker and gives her the nickname Death Locket.[7] As the young heroes sleep for the night, they are stalked by an unidentified cybernetic creature. Juston is attacked and the Sentinel he is working on folds around him, crushing him. After a brief fight, Cammi teams up with Darkhawk to find the stalker. Cammi is ambushed by X-23, who has been hunting the mysterious stalker as well. Disappointed in herself, Cammi pushes herself into an intense training session.[8] Nico saves Cammi from an avalanche by using a "snow globe" spell and Chase busts her free. As gratitude, she offers to teach them survival skills in exchange for some firepower. Cammi also notes the death toll is at four, with two officially dead and two missing.[9]

After being injured by Apex, Nico sacrifices herself by staying behind to get the other survivors to safety.[10] The remaining teenage heroes catch up to Reptil and Hazmat and are invited to have shark steaks with them. Cullen Bloodstone confronts Reptil about their ignorance to the ongoing war, which Cammi agrees with before leaving to find Nico or avenge her. Everyone agrees to go back out into Murderworld.[11] After Nara's death, Nico finally snaps and tries to kill everyone.[12] When Chase refuses to let Cammi stop Nico, she breaks his arm and leg, taking the Darkhawk amulet to stop Nico from killing everyone.[13] Cammi returns the amulet to Chase when Apex unleashes bugs, a sentient typhoon, and weaponized sand to attack the remaining teens on Murderworld.[14] Soon after, Deathlocket stops the fight by killing Apex, and everyone is able to escape Murderworld and disperse.[15]

Once news breaks about Arcade's kidnappings, Cammi and the other Murderworld survivors become infamous. Cammi finds out her mother is alive and tries to be a good daughter by going to her mother's AA meetings.[16] She later tells her mom she has to go, despite her mom's protests. However, when Anachronism reveals Bloodstone's gone missing, all the survivors team up to head to Bagalia to find him. Once they do, Bloodstone reveals that he enjoys his life among the villains, and everyone, except Cammi, starts to enjoy it as well.
