Story: Alessandra's mother, Maria Fermi, was a brilliant opera singer. Her dream was Alessandra one day following in her footsteps as a great diva. Alessandra lived for music and wanted nothing more than to spend her life immersed in it. Fame did not interest her. At age of fourteen Alessandra began taking voice lessons with the greatest instructor in Italy. Instead of learning to sing, the first lesson ended with with the emergence of Alessandra's latent sonic powers, which destroyed all the windows in studio along with her instructors glasses and eyesight [5].

The occurrence effectively ended her hopes of a musical career, but it attracted interest from SkyWatch [4]. Nothing has been revealed about Alessandra's training or start at StormWatch, but she did participate and became a StormWatch operative.

At StormWatch, Alessandra met Mitchell Saunders (Cannon), with whom she became involved [1]. However when Diva was named team leader of StormWatch One, he left both her and StormWatch, in anger of being passed over the promotion that should have been his [2].

Diva led the StormWatch team quite successfully for a short while. She was killed by the villain Despot, when the team tried to stop him and the Warguard that had escaped their imprisonment on StormWatch's base on the Moon [3].


Skills & abilities: Diva can project sonic waves, using her voice. The sonic waves can be used as force blasts but also for flight and vibrating objects so they break apart or explode.
