Scalamanthia

Matriax Scalamanthia was the ruler of the planet Oblivion. She was the mother of Destrii. (COMIC: Oblivion)

Behind the scenes
The initial description given by Scott Gray to artists Martin Geraghty and David A. Roach was; "Scala is the undisputed monarch of Oblivion, and gives off an aura of malevolent power. She's very big - maybe seven feet tall, and packed with muscle. Big hands. She's aquatic like Destrii, so she'll be blue-skinned and scaly, but she needn't look like an older version of her daughter - the genetic meddling going on means that parents and children never quite seem to be part of the same species. Feel free to give her different facial characteristics. She should look very scary at the best of times. At the worst of times she's terrifying".

The character's design was based on the Marvel Comics character Gatecrasher, who previously crossed over with the DWU in several stories.
