Poison Ivy, unattributed
Continuing with the outstanding "Most In-Depth" guides by superlative Mr. Obsidian Chill, I've posted the Nature DPS / Healer in-depth guide. I'm not a healer, so I'm not familiar with the nature skill set, and frankly, don't seem to see a lot of nature DPS in-world, but interestingly it seems to be one of the more popular power sets that were sought on the blog. Thus, I'm adding Obsidian Chill's excellent (and detailed) overview of the power set.
Poison Ivy seem to be part of the recent "rehabilitation" theme that DC comics is undergoing. She was never a really "reformed" villain, but she does tend to help out Harley Quinn quite a bit. Not sure if it is part of "girl empowerment" meme (popular with woke writers with poor story telling skills) or just psudo-realism in comics (which to me means that "good" or "bad" can be relative).
So as one of the saucier ladies of the DC universe, she quite popular within its confines. This being said, she's also known as one of the first (and organic... to twist a bad pun) gay characters. She has had an on-and-off relationship with Harley Quinn, another "rogue" character (a villain and heroine).

The good thing about the relationship story line is it isn't the primary existence of their pairing. It's just part of their overall story, done back when there were competent writers in the comics world. I haven't kept up with this story line, but to my viewing it is isn't a gay relationship to simply trumpet "being gay" - just part of the story. Anyways, she is unfortunately not in the DCUO in any extensive means, but she is still an iconic character, with a perfectly matched power set. World is back up... so see you in world!
