Biography
Nadia Eleanor Sidorova was born in Moscow to a British journalist, Isabel Wellesley, and a Russian politician, Alexey Sidorov. Sidorov was a passionate reformer, and when his enemies couldn't dissuade him through other means, they had him killed. They sent his wife and daughter to business associates in Hong Kong, where Isabel was killed and Nadia, then eight years old, was sold to the owner of an underground fighting arena.
It was in that arena that Nathan saw her, six years later, and refused to leave that night without her. Purchasing her contract, he brought her back to Europe and attempted to leave her at a convent school. Domino refused to stay, following him and Bridge back to their safehouse.
When she was of age, she joined the Pack and served as a very effective member of the unit for years. She also started to take on solo jobs, her skill and her unnatural luck earning her a solid reputation in the mercenary world. Left at loose ends after Nathan settled at the mansion, she drifted in and out of various situations (and sometimes predicaments), some related to him and the X-Men, some not. Deeply in love with Pete Wisdom, she was badly disillusioned by his apparent defection to the Hellfire Club and tried to find a productive outlet for her skills, eventually becoming involved in rescuing mutant children in Africa from military training camps. Her kidnapping by Gideon, though traumatic, reunited her with Pete and the two have been involved since.
When Nathan founded Elpis, Domino was one of the first of his friends to accept his job offer. She has found a great deal of personal validation on her new career path, but wishes that people would stop sending her to Central Asia.
When the Elpis office in Tel Aviv was bombed by the Preservers, Domino's powers allowed her to give her friends and fellow staff at least a couple of minutes of warning, which most likely saved a number of lives. During the explosion itself, she pushed Angelo Espinosa into a stairwell which was mysteriously untouched by the blast wave. Angelo would later suspect that she had somewhat protected him with her powers. Domino herself was buried in the debris and critically injured. Though the doctors at Ichilov Hospital saved her life, her injuries were severe and involved months of therapy and recovery time.
Powers/Abilities
Domino is a probability manipulator, an ability that Moira has identified as a combination of low-level reality warping and unconscious precognition. After Gideon manipulated her ability while he held her prisoner, her powers have undergone a significant increase in strength, although they are still entirely unconscious.
