Powers and Abilities

As a result of the cloning process and meteor rocks, Emily gained several special abilities, most of which she mastered from early infancy:

Accelerated aging: Emily was cloned by her father, Pete Dinsmore, under Lionel Luthor's supervision and with the aid of LuthorCorp. He was able to produce a duplicate of Emily, but the clone was unhealthy and mentally unstable. (Accelerate). A year later, she had grown at such an accelerated rate, she had the appearance of a teenager. (Forsaken)

Super speed: Emily could run at supersonic speeds that just about rivaled Clark Kent's ability. (Accelerate, Forsaken)

Intangibility : Emily's superspeed caused her molecules to vibrate so fast, she developed the ability to pass through solid objects, including a concrete wall in a graveyard and her own father's body. When he tried to take her back to the lab, she killed him by putting her arm through his chest. ( Accelerate , Forsaken )

: Emily possesses a level of inhuman durability, enough to allow her survive being hit by all the water that were in a water tower, however it did knocked her out. Healing factor: Even after she was knocked out after being hit by a tremendous amount of water and was heavily sedated, Emily still managed to use her powers to escape, indicating she possesses a degree of enhanced healing factor.

Early life

When Emily and Lana were children, they were friends and loved playing together, including going to the river to make boats from flowers. On April the 14th when they were ten years old, they were at the river during a rainstorm, and Lana slipped and fell in. Emily jumped in after her and encouraged her until Lana swam to safety, but there was no one to do the same for Emily, and she drowned.

Season Two

Six years later, Emily's father was moderately successful in using refined meteor rocks to create a clone of his daughter. She was beautiful, sweet, and smart, but her accelerated growth caused severe chromosomal damage. She also had no sense of morality; she did not know right from wrong. That defect, combined with her abilities of super strength and super speed, made her very dangerous.

The Emily clone ran from Granville to Smallville to find her friend Lana Lang. Because Emily was still ten years old, Lana thought she saw a ghost and the poor girl was very confused by her friend's fear. Emily seriously injured her father using her unnatural strength and speed when he tried to stop her from seeing Lana. Upon discovering that Lana didn't save her, an enraged Emily threw her into the river, though Clark Kent arrived in time to save her. Lionel eventually captured Emily again, bribing her with a gift of a white rabbit, but Lionel refused to allow her father to continue working with her.

Season Three

When she reached adolescence, she escaped her confinement by walking through a wall. She went to the Talon and killed the new owner. She pretended to be his daughter in an attempt to get close to Lana. She killed her father when he tried to interfere. She captured Lana and locked her in a glass cell in the middle of nowhere. She made up a story for Clark about Lana's departure, but Clark figured it out. When he confronted her, she fled. When Lana tried to escape, Emily gassed her with chlorine. Clark found her in the nick of time. Emily escaped custody on her way to Belle Reve. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

Notes

It is unknown what became of the Emily clone after Season Three. Later clones Adrian Cross and LX-13 suffered from short lifespans due to accelerated aging. However, unlike Emily, neither Adrian or LX-13 possessed metahuman abilities. Conner Kent also suffered from accelerated aging, but was cured by his healing factor, which canceled it out, when Conner reached adolescence. [1]

In addition to the main Emily Dinsmore clone, three more were shown to have been created.[2] Their fate is unknown.
