Poison Ivy (real name Doctor Pamela Isley) is a cold and sarcastic metahuman eco-terrorist and the girlfriend of Harley Quinn, as well as a member of her crew. She later became the leader of the Legion of Doom and a founding member of the Gotham City Sirens.

History

Origins

Pamela Isley was born to a wealthy family, but was born a metahuman. This caused her to be the subject of mental and physical abuse by her parents and others around her, hampering her ability on making friends. As a result, she gave up on humanity.

She was invited to join the Legion of Doom, but rejected all 148 invites.

Despite her hatred of humanity, it was Harleen who managed to convince her otherwise, enabling her to come out of her shell a bit more. It was due to Harleen's help that allowed them both to become friends.

Incarceration & Freedom

Following Harley's return to Arkham, Ivy attempted to convince her friend that Joker wasn't coming to get her, mostly due to her 6 month stay already. Due to Harley's stubbornness, she decided to wait for him. Ivy tried explaining Joker wasn't ideal for her and that there was somebody out there better than him. Harley's stubborn behavior remained convinced that he was going to come for her. 3 months later, Ivy herself managed to free herself, taking Harley out along with her.

Ivy took Harley to her apartment, where she restored her dying plants, finding that Frank the plant ate the boy responsible for watering them, as well as his parents.
