Backstory:
Zoe Marks was orphaned at a very young age and left to grow up alone among the more zealous members of the underground Resistance in Praetoria. She learned to fight, assemble ordinance, ambush tactics, and anything anyone would teach her until she became seasoned enough and skilled enough to begin leading her own campaigns against Cole's regime from within the Resistance.
Before learning of the impending war that Cole had planned to bring to Primal Earth, Zoe met another Resistance fighter going by the handle, Xtremist, and terms like "oil and water" started floating around the gossip mill underground. The love/hate relationship that grew from their first few shared missions followed them to Primal earth, and now, they work beside the heroes of Paragon.

Because somehow, some way, Zoe is going to take Cole down.

Black Velvet

Character Name: Black Velvet
Real Name: Angel Timmons
Server: Virtue
Origin: Mutation
Archetype: Dual Pistols/Energy Blaster
SG: Guardians of Destiny
Alignment: Vigilante
Partner: Tom Damon
Signature Song: Black Velvet by Alannah Myles
Personality: Cocky, brash, incredibly sexy
Backstory:
Angel started out as one of the best cat burglars in the world, mentored by an infamous crime lord that operated out of South Florida. He had dealings the world over in organized crime, a healthy drug smuggling trade, and many other illegal operations. Trouble started for Angel, however, when he decided he'd like to make their relationship much more serious, and she turned him down. As punishment for her rejection, he made sure the police knew of her next heist, and she was arrested while he emptied her bank accounts.
Luckily, Angel managed to get a lawyer that convinced the judge in her case that she could be rehabilitated and her talents put to use as a hero in Paragon City. Her first stop would be the Starchasers, who took custody of her, as well as responsibility for her parole. While a member of that group, she met Tom Damon, and the two hit it off immediately, becoming fast friends, working together as often as they could.
Things didn't go smoothly for Angel, however, and became intricately complicated when she caught the eye of a villain who viewed the Starchasers as a threat. Agreeing to get close to him to learn more of his plans in order to help the Starchasers, Angel fell for the villain's charms and became caught in the middle of her obligations and emotions. In the end, she narrowly avoided being sent back to the Zig for parole violations and lost faith in the very heroes she'd looked to for how to be a better person.
Now, Angel is with the Guardians of Destiny - a group that tends to look the other way when she's a little less than heroic - and her parole is over. While being a hero has its appeal, she'll likely never fit the mold, though she'll always have a bent toward doing what she sees as the right thing.

When she was 5 years old, her twin brother, Tom, disappeared, and as the months went by with no sign of him, her mother's health began to fade, leaving Lara and her father alone in the end. Growing up, she spent a great deal of time in the soldiers' baracks adjacent to the castle, learning how to fight, drink, and gamble, while her father was busy running the territory.
When she was 16, Lara was to marry one of the sons of the Emperor until she halted the wedding procession and fled the country, eventually finding her way off world.
In the years since, she's had countless adventures across several different worlds, including returning to her own to settle down and start a family. Still, that tendency to run from her obligations has never left her, and recently, she's followed her niece to this version of Earth to avoid having to deal with her brother's death and taking the throne in his place. A decree of divorce followed, and now, she has been establishing a life here with Malcolm Clarke, a Praetorian who once knew her dopple on that world.

Wintry Dross

Character Name: Wintry Dross
Real Name: Winter
Server: Virtue
Origin: Science
Archetype: Ice/Rad Controller
SG: Starchasers
Alignment: Hero
Partner/Spouse: Ion-Stream
Signature Song: We'll Be Together - Sting
Personality: A bit on the naive side, very bubbly and happy
Backstory: Winter was discovered in the aftermath of a raid on one of Dr. Aeon's labs by members of Longbow sent to oversee the collection of evidence. She was huddled behind some equipment during the fighting, unsure of exactly what to do. In the days that followed, Longbow agent Lucas Trujillo discovered that Winter was the result of a genetic experimentation project that Dr. Aeon eventually declared a failure. Of the two results of the experiment, Winter was the weaker, so he dubbed her Wintry Dross and set her with the task of keeping the lab clean and acting as lab assistant when he needed an extra pair of hands.
In spite of what he considered her weaker powers, the girl herself was a sponge, becoming incredibly knowledgable about a great deal of the scientific research being done in the lab she called home. Trujillo decided to adopt her and took her home where he and his wife had their hands full trying to teach Winter the social skills she would need to be equipped with to join the hero community. They found a young hero-in-training to pair her with in the field, and the two became fast friends.
Now, Winter has developed into a full-fledged hero, working alongside her partner and fiancee Ion-Stream.
