Hey everyone! My BioHero is the Mighty Messenger (medulla oblongata and acetylcholine). Gifted with great intellect and a daring spirit, the Mighty Messenger is well-known in her community for bringing people together. Many years ago, her parents were incarcerated due to a violent argument they got into with each other. Ever since then, she vowed to be super helpful and kind to the people around her. Her friends have always known her as the mediator in conflicts, and everything she did always came from the heart. Her mantra is that everyone should treat other with love and respect, and communication is key to building strong relationships. She uses these special communication powers to combat evil and advise people on how to resolve their conflicts with each other to make the world a better place, one kind word at a time! The Mighty Messenger is part of the Fantastic Four, accompanied by Queen Cobra, Talking Embracer, and Iris Adrenaline. Together they work to defeat evil!
