Beverly Axton

"KRAAAXXX"- A noise frequently made by Beverly after her mutation.

Beverly Axton is a character appearing in the HydroVerse series of comics and was created by theryanjake11, she is also the main antagonist of Urban Lizard 2.

Working as a scientist for B.M.B.M. Research, Beverly joined her team in travelling to a distant planet known as Dakirus which resulted in her being attacked by the hostile lifeforms there and subsequently mutated into a cyclops-like mutant.

Appearance
As a human, Beverly Axton appears as a multiracial woman with brown hair tied into a ponytail, she possesses hazel eyes.

After her mutation, Beverly lacked any remnants of her human self as her mutations took over her entire appearance. Now sporting completely dark, leathery skin, Beverly also possessed three-fingered hands alongside two-toed feet.

Beverly's eyes had morphed into one cyclops-like eye and no other facial features, she also sported two tentacle-like protrusions growing from her back.

Early Life
Not much is known about Beverly's early life but it is implied that she was friends with Jane Morris at some point, and would not shut up about wanting to go to space.

Trip to Dakirus
Within the B.M.B.M. facility, Beverly approaches her superior Marcus and asks if she can call her friend Jane before they travel to the planet Dakirus to which Marcus allows. Beverly calls Jane but can only manage to leave a message, she tells Jane about how she's going to space and hopes that she has found her dream job too.

After suiting up with the rest of the team, Beverly listens to Marcus give them a briefing of what to expect and what they are planning on doing with the expedition to Dakirus. Whilst the speech is going on, Beverly playfully tells her close friend Joel that she'll keep him safe.

The team then board an advanced shuttle, and they take off into outer space for transportation to Dakirus with Beverly expressing great excitement. Within a few hours, the team arrives on Dakirus and begin exiting the shuttle. Beverly and Joel initially go together but then split up, with Beverly heading to the right.

As Beverly speaks to herself about how she cannot believe she's on another planet, she is ambushed by mysterious lifeforms that declare her worthy of assisting them in their journey of colonization. The lifeforms then begin emitting a thick, black cloud of smoke that envelopes both them and Beverly.

Hearing Beverly's cries for help, Joel runs to her direction and finds her stumbling towards him with a raspy voice. Stating that the pain is too much, Beverly collapses to the ground as Joel rushes to her assistance. Upon inspecting Beverly, Joel notices black veins running down her face. Joel calls for assistance and the team escort Jane back to the shuttle.

Inside the shuttle, the team bring in Beverly who is now convulsing uncontrollably and screaming in pain as she is lowered onto a medical bed. After vomiting violently, Beverly's entire hand snaps apart as black veins appear all over.

The team watch in horror as Beverly horribly mutates and falls off of the medical bed, she then attacks everyone on board and kills most of the crew. This causes the shuttle to go out of control before eventually crashing into a forest.

On Earth
The mutated Beverly climbs from the wreckage, she looks around until she notices the body of Joel. She approaches his body and kneels down, she caresses his head and discovers a pool of blood next to his fractured skull. Beverly proceeds to lift Joel's head up and looks down at his face, she then lets out a loud "NO" before holding his body close to her own.

A task force is sent via helicopter to investigate the shuttle crash site, they succeed in finding the remains of the members onboard except for two. They are then attacked by an invisible attacker before it is revealed to be Beverly, the task force open fire on her and the bullets are all absorbed into her eye.

Beverly then uses the bullets as energy and expels it in the form of a yellow beam which hits one soldier and causes a chain reaction, killing the rest of the task force and leaving them as incinerated corpses. Beverly walks away from the area. While having lunch in the back of a fast food restaurant, Jane and Kevin are alerted when Beverly appears and begins scaring people away.

As the two lizards confront Beverly, she lets out a small plead for help which throws Jane off-guard and allows Beverly to punch her which sends Jane flying into the window of the restaurant. Kevin instructs Jane to protect the people inside as he then spits acid into Beverly's eye, but it only gives her energy to expel her beam.

The beam hits Kevin in the chest and pushes him away, Beverly then turns her attention towards Jane through the restaurant windows. Jane rushes to find something to block the beam, she uses a stove and holds it in position. Beverly fires her beam and it is reflected in many directions.

Jane expresses relief but then notices that one of the civilians inside the restaurant was actually hit by the beam and was killed, this causes Jane to fall into a panic attack which causes her to enter primal mode. Kevin grabs Beverly in a headlock but she headbutts the lizard off of her, Jane then rushes Beverly and slashes her upside the face.

Both Jane and Beverly fall to the ground, Jane then attempts to attack but is struck by Beverly who then uses her back tentacles to stab the female lizard in the right shoulder. Kevin then quickly uses his tail to strike Beverly, sending her flying onto the roof of a nearby van before disappearing.

Beverly returns to the crash site area near a river, she looks at her reflection in the water and splashes it out of anger. It is revealed that she had taken Joel's body from the wreckage, and rests her head on his shoulder.

Mindless Mutant
Within Howlite City, an out of control Beverly has begun another attack and is being combated by a SWAT team but they are unable to defeat her due to her laser beam attacks. Jane then lands between the SWAT team and Beverly, who says her name which causes Jane to barely recognize the voice as her old friend's.

Jane then hesitantly signals Kevin who comes out from a sewer underneath Beverly, grabbing her by the ankle and pulling her down into the sewers. Jane makes her way down as well shortly after.

Beverly climbs to her feet and fires a beam at the two lizards, knocking them both down. Jane tries to talk to Beverly, but she has completely lost her human mind. Beverly stomps on the downed Jane's stomach but Kevin runs to her aid and smacks the alien with his tail.

As Kevin tries to convince Jane to enter primal mode again, he is struck aside by Beverly but Jane jumps onto her back and attempts to convince her to stop. Beverly uses her back tentacles to impale Jane in her left arm, pinning it to the wall behind them. Kevin attempts to help again, but Beverly catches him by the neck and proceeds to try and choke him.

In great pain, Jane notices Kevin is losing consciousness which causes her to enter primal mode which allows her the strength to pull the tentacle out of her arm which catches Beverly's attention. Enraged, Jane delivers two vicious slashes to Beverly's abdomen which causes black blood to squirt out.

Suddenly, Beverly catches Jane's wrist but she is then elbowed in the face by Kevin which stuns Beverly long enough for Jane to grab a discarded steel pipe and shove the broken end into her former friend's temple, instantly putting Beverly out of her misery. After the fight is over, Jane mourns her friend and mentions how she couldn't get through to her in time.

Appearances
Urban Lizard 2

Personality
Beverly Axton was a very giddy girl, always enthusiastic about her desired life as a scientist as well as astronaut. She always kept a positive mindset on everything, and always wanted to make people feel safe in their duties, especially her close friend Joel.

When trapped inside her now-mutated body, Beverly's demeanour flipped completely, constantly begging people to help her. She is also shown to demonstrate a sense of great sadness, as she sat next to Joel's corpse after he died in the shuttle crash.

After a while, the mutation overwhelmed Beverly's mind and turned her into a hive-minded copy of the very aliens that did this to her.

Enhanced Strength
The mutations to Beverly's body granted her immense physical strength as she was able to send Jane flying across a car park with one punch.

Enhanced Stamina
Along with the mutation came enhanced stamina, allowing Beverly to continue fighting even when she had expelled a major amount of energy to perform her Dakirian Eye ability.

Enhanced Durability
The mutation granted Beverly the ability to withstand immense physical trauma, as she managed to hold her own against both Jane and Kevin at once.

Dakirian Eye
The most dangerous ability Beverly has, she is able to absorb projectiles into her eye which she then uses to create and expel energy. She then fires the energy which comes out as a bright yellow beam of pure energy that incinerates anyone and anything in its path.

However it can be reflected, as Jane attempted to shield civilians and herself from the beam by using a stove.

Back Protrusions
The tentacle-like protrusions that originate from Beverly's back are able to elongate with great speed and accuracy, as she was able to impale Jane through her shoulder and arm.

Camouflage
When the armed task force investigated the shuttle wreck, Beverly started her attack by appearing invisible and picking off the task force members one-by-one before revealing herself.
