elizabeth lyta worthington Elizabeth Lyta Worthington is the oldest of the fraternal twins born to Warren Worthington and Betsy Braddock. Betsy's pregnancy completely unexpected, Warren proposed to Betsy after she found out that she was pregnant. Betsy said yes, and the two were married in a sort of shotgun (but fabulously executed wedding). Nine months later, Lyta and her twin brother, Gabriel Kenneth Worthington were delivered via c-section delivery, as it was discovered early on that both babies appeared to be growing wings in an ultrasound.
Elizabeth (who preferred to go by her middle name), and Gabriel, were raised around Xaviers, and grew up with the rest of the X-kids. Though Warren tried to groom both of his children to eventually go into business at Worthington, Lyta always showed more interest than Gabriel in the business-side of things. Both twins fought with the X-Men when they turned seventeen, though Lyta put her superhero career on hold to go to Harvard, where she majored in business. She returned to the X-Men for a brief period of time, while working on her master's.
About a year ago, Warren sent Lyta oversees to England to work on a business deal with Worthington's London branch. Wanting Gabriel to get a better feel for things, Warren sent Lyta's brother with her, though Lyta handled more things on the business end than Gabriel. The business deal finally closed, Lyta has returned to the states, to rejoin the X-Men, and work at her father's company office in New York City. |
