Biography
Legion
Salu Digby originally joined the Legion after, in the final of a competition to become Imsk's representative, one of the other contestants, Micro, murdered the third finalist, Ion. After she apprehended Micro, she was gratefully accepted into the Legion, as Shrinking Violet. Despite her chronic shyness, quickly became close friends with the outgoing Kinetix, who joined at the same time, and who pushed her to become more outgoing.
Eye
However, shortly after the depowered Kinetix had left on a search for new power artifacts, Violet came across the Emerald Eye of Ekron. Seducing her, it gradually allowed her to become more outgoing, the way she wished to be.
Keeping it a secret, even after the mystically-repowered Kinetix, having been sent to search for it, returned proved deadly. Innocently, she wished that all the Legionnaires would be granted their heart's desires'. Unfortunately for Leviathan, his wish was for a heroic death, which the Eye promptly arranged. Having had a longstanding crush on him, she was heartbroken by his death, and openly revealed the Eye's power in an attempt to revive him before forcing the Legionnaires to go on a galaxy-wide search for a means of revival.
It was only after she had remade the Legion, and indeed the Earth, in the Eye's image and several accidentally freed Legionnaires tried to stop her that she realised it had all gone too far, and commanded it to "turn back time".
Maliciously, the Eye took the opportunity to send half the Legion a thousand years into the past, while taking Violet herself into deep space to attempt to continue its brainwashing of its host, where it sensed its prior master, Mordru - one of the few beings capable of using it against its will, had been reawakened.
Growth
After she was freed from the Eye, and Mordru defeated, Violet suddenly found herself with Leviathan's powers in addition to her own. Since then, she has alternated between the using the codename LeViathan in tribute to him, and simply being known as Violet.
Powers and abilties
Violet has the superhuman ability to vary her size. Originally, she could only shrink (down to subatomic sizes, if necessary), but after Leviathan's death, the Emerald Eye bestowed her with his power to grow to giant sizes as well.
Violet has also been shown to be one of the Legion's most skilled hand-to-hand combatants.
