Fictional character biography
Quiet but deadly, Monica Caine literally has not uttered a single word since the spontaneous manifestation of her psionic abilities which she utilized to become indoctrinated in the Bloodpool.
Psilence is an extremely powerful "psionic" unable to literally speak and use her voice, hence her name. With this handicap notwithstanding, she communicates through her telepathy, as well as possessing powerful telekinesis, which she utilizes in conjunction with her own fighting prowess and unarmed combat skills, working in synergized tandem with her own enhanced agility and stamina. Her own psychic abilities have been known to render individuals temporarily comatose or she can render them permanently unconscious, while her empathy furnishes her with "danger sense" which allowed her to sense and perceive the ascension of Chapel after he committed suicide when he confronted Hellspawn.
