Personality
Before her transformation, Paige was a happy young woman, eager to volunteer if it helped Cole's regime thrive. After the transformation, she felt somewhat betrayed, and would look out for herself-helping the regime, because of what it had given her, but looking more to make herself famous and wealthy in the process. It wasn't until a pivotal decision to save members of the Powers Division who were under her command that she snapped out of this, and began seeing the people of Praetoria as worth saving again.
Despite this, however, she is very aware that she's no longer human, and feels that something was lost. She tends to prefer the expedient methods of dealing with opposition; accordingly, she was initially confused as to the "proper" way of handling things in Paragon City. She's trying to relearn morality again, and hoping that maybe she can rediscover her humanity.
Perhaps this is why she continues to use the name "Withered Vine", as she feels her humanity bloomed once, and withered away for good. Time will tell if she's correct.
Powers
Thanks to the experiments done on her, Withered Vine isn't fully human anymore-but that is possibly "compensated" by the abilities those experiments have given her.
Plant Control
Withered Vine has control over the plant life in her immediate vicinity. Nature is stronger than one might suppose-she can bring about roots from the ground to entangle and strangle her enemies. From herself, she can generate pollens that can confuse and befuddle. She can even generate small trees whose spores promote rapid healing.
Thorny Assault
Also from her body, Withered Vine can extrude thorns of substantial size. These thorns can be launched from her body to harm her enemies with plant-based toxins.
Additional Powers
Withered Vine has additional abilities that have accompanied her changes.
Speed
The serum that gave Withered Vine her powers also changed her body, so it's not entirely human anymore. It is, in fact, partially plant fiber. This means that some of the limitations of the human body are alleviated: she can move her muscles faster than an ordinary human, allowing her to outrace vehicles on the ground.
Weaknesses and Limitations
Withered Vine is no longer completely human. She's partially plant herself, and is unusually vulnerable to defoliants and the like.
