Origins:
 
Terminatrix was born as Ravonna Lexus Renslayer in the 40th century of Other Earth. She was the daughter of King Carelius, a local ruler. When Kang attempted to conquer their realm, Ravonna was sent by Carelius to negotiate. Instead of negotiating, she just laughed in Kang's face and declared they would never surrender. She told him they would fight to the last breath of the last citizen of their small kingdom. Kang was impressed enough to step away and let them remain independent. But he was now infatuated with Ravonna.
Two years later after being repelled by the people of Other Earth, Kang returns. Having now expanded his empire to the stars, he now needs to conquer the last kingdom on Earth. He offers Carelius a subordinate position and Ravonna his hand in marriage. The King accepts but Ravonna remains defiant. Kang hopes that with time her reaction towards him will change. Several years later it has not and Kang's patience is reaching its end. He orchestrates a battle with the Avengers in an effort to impress her. She is not particularly impressed and Kang himself faces a coup attempt by his own army because they expected Kang to kill Ravonna (a future monarch). Now Kang has to join the Avengers and Carelius' army against his former troops. Ravonna is now truly impressed. When Kang is about to be slain by Baltag, leader of the rebels, Ravonna leaps in and rescues him at the cost of her own health and she is left comatose.
When she was revived by En Dwi Gast, AKA the Grandmaster, who had engaged in a game with Kang where should he win he could choose to have power over life or death, and thus return Ravonna to life. The Grandmaster reveals to her that Kang won and chose death, death to his enemies the Avengers, which was more important to him than her return. This betrayal set Ravonna on a path of vengeance. She at first allied herself with the Avengers against Kang, but when her revenge against him became her sole focus, she became their enemy.
