Jenny was a fairly typical Genoshan in most ways. She grew up modestly affluent, the daughter of an engineer and a local politician. Her family has a long history with the [[Moreau Family|Moreaus]], her mother and Adele Moreau having been to school together, and later, serving with David Moreau in the Legislature and once considered a rising star in the NPP. However, once starting a family, her mother decided to return to more local politics to help raise her daughter. Jennifer and [[Moreau Family|Phillip]] were regular playmates as children, but it wasn't until the death of his mother that they became truly close, as his father's duties as Prime Minister often took him away from home and the Ransomes helped serve as a surrogate family.

Smart and articulate, Jennifer had designs on following her father's career by studying engineering, and used to listen to his rambling ideas about merging technology and the abilities of mutant workers to create entirely new applications and fields with great interest.

Biography

Jenny was a fairly typical Genoshan in most ways. She grew up modestly affluent, the daughter of an engineer and a local politician. Her family has a long history with the Moreaus, her mother and Adele Moreau having been to school together, and later, serving with David Moreau in the Legislature and once considered a rising star in the NPP. However, once starting a family, her mother decided to return to more local politics to help raise her daughter. Jennifer and Phillip were regular playmates as children, but it wasn't until the death of his mother that they became truly close, as his father's duties as Prime Minister often took him away from home and the Ransomes helped serve as a surrogate family.

Since starting high school, Phillip and Jennifer began to see each other romantically. Jennifer was smart enough to understand that most early romances don't last, but with Phillip, something in him resonated so strongly that she felt herself swept up. Smart and articulate, Jennifer had designs on following her father's career by studying engineering, and used to listen to his rambling ideas about merging technology and the abilities of mutant workers to create entirely new applications and fields with great interest.

However, starting her third year of high school, Jennifer tested positive for the x gene. Not yet manifested, Jennifer was sent back home as was the usual practice, and a monthly check-in established with the Commission's officers to monitor her eventual manifestation of mutant abilities. Apprehensive, Jennifer still tried to focus on the positives. While the perception of mutants was changing on Genosha, she, like most others, thought of the mutant workers as an essential group; honourable volunteers without whom the country could not prosper. Depending on her powers, she could still be an engineer, and maybe carry out some of her father's ideas. Mutants had risen to important positions in government service before, and the original 8 of the Commission were still considered national heroes.

However, with each month, her apprehensiveness grew, especially as she began to find more information available on what to expect. Her now red-coded ID cards brought suspicious looks from former friends and teachers, and her furtive explorations into the mutant sub-culture turned into literature and quiet meetings with manifested mutants who talked about their increasing lack of rights and more dangerous assignments. She came to Phillip with the information, and his own digging seemed to confirm it. Unable to get more information from his father, Phillip secretly broke into some of his father's files, which confirmed that many 'volunteers' were kept at their jobs by force if necessary, and the 'mutate' method, which had been described as being a way to limit dangerous powers actually repressed the will of the mutant and made them biddable.

Armed with as much information as they could find, they faked a camping trip out to the Ridgeback mountains. Instead, Phillip had arranged for a secret berth on a ship headed for Mumbai.
