Calypso was a voodoo priestess of Haitian descent. She was a psychopathic woman who was associated with Sergei Kravinoff, aka Kraven the Hunter. Calypso seemed to enjoy driving Kraven into fits of rage and furthering his hatred of Spider-Man,[1] which ultimately led to Kraven's suicide.[1]
Calypso increased her powers via the sacrifice of her younger sister. She used her abilities to hold Curt Connors, The Lizard, in her grasp, and the two nearly succeeded in murdering Spider-Man. However, the web-slinger managed to best them both, and Calypso was apparently killed.[2]
Calypso next emerged on the streets of Hell's Kitchen, kidnapping Haitian refugees and turning them into zombies, as practice for her plan to resurrect Kraven. When Daredevil confronted her, she managed to temporarily enslave him until Brother Voodoo advised him how to defeat her. As Daredevil freed the enslaved souls she had accumulated, she deliberately crashed the building down upon herself.[3]
In New Orleans, Calypso killed a voodoo priest and stole one of the Amulets of Damballah which allowed her to resurrect and control Simon Garth, though she soon abandoned him to his own fate.[4]. This, too, seems to have been practice for a long-term plan of resurrecting Kraven.
