The Mary Walker Legacy

Mary Alice Walker is a woman with dissociative identity disorder whose alternating personalities — the meek, pacifist Mary and the violent, pyrokinetic Typhoid — give her a dangerously unpredictable edge in combat; a mutant-level telekinetic and pyrokinetic, she honed her formidable martial-arts and edged-weapon skills and first came to wider attention when the Kingpin hired her specifically to torment Daredevil, exploiting a past encounter she may have shared with Matt Murdock.

Mary Walker is the mother of Patsy Walker and a savvy comics writer and businesswoman who built Patsy Walker Enterprises by fictionalizing her daughter's teenage life into a popular comic series — blurring the line between real family and published characters.
