- CHARACTER INFORMATION - Antoinelle is an old woman who lives in the swamp areas of Louisiana. She is the aunt of Emery Arceneaux, who she has custody of for unknown reasons. Even though she has raised her nephew in a poor environment, she has raised him to be a morally righteous person. She is also a practicing Voodoo priestess with the powers to return people from the dead.

HISTORY BREAKDOWN - Gambit had more interaction with Antoinelle's handy work than Antoinelle herself. Believing it was Gambit that got her nephew killed during a robbery, she seeked revenge. Using her knowledge of Voodoo magic she brought her Nephew, Emery and several other recently dead, including Gambit's friend Dan Down, back from the dead as mindless zombies under her control. She directed them towards the people she thought wronged her. Once Gambit saved her twice and explained that he was trying to save her Nephew she called off her zombies. - - -
