Biography

Childhood

Felicia was born and raised in New York. Her mother worked as a non-profit event and funding coordinator, while her father's public face was as an art dealer. It was on one of Walter's work trips abroad that he met Lydia, during a charity auction she was running. Needless to say, Felicia grew up in the life of a minor socialite, but though she wanted for nothing, her father, to whom she was very close, instilled in her early that she should work hard and never settle for second best.

Rarely spoken about directly, it was not much of a secret how Walter spent his spare time or acquired his more rare pieces. Known as The Cat, his specialty was "victimless" theft; no casualties and plans that had a certain kind of elegance to them. At a young age, Felicia already showed tendencies towards her father's talents, with high scores in her gymnastics classes and ability to puzzle out his slight of hand parlour tricks, and so it didn't take too much wearing down before Walter began overseeing her training, including lock picking, hand-to-hand, and basic cons. Later, Felicia will realize that her talents have been assisted by her mutation.

It's not until she is in high school that Walter is betrayed by one of his employers and framed, resulting in his incarceration and ultimately his murder. Felicia was too young to do anything about it and decides to bide her time. She continued training while going to school for accounting and numbers and acquainting herself with her father's friends and contacts, building the cold core she still uses to keep herself going.

Some time and several jobs later, she has enough ears to the ground to get word about who was behind her father's frame up job, leading her to a small shipping firm that just so happens to be in need of a junior accountant. All is going well under the identity of Charlie Stode until she gets deep enough to realize that she is in fact now working for a Maggia front company, tied to a particularly nasty underboss who specializes in illegal mutant slaving.

Powers

Probability manipulator. Felicia can subliminally affect probability fields, within her line of sight. While the event can be improbable, it cannot be impossible; she can dodge a bullet (with a certain amount of thought) but she has to actually move to do so, the bullet trajectory can't just change in mid air. Currently, Felicia has strong natural abilities in affecting events, but has little fine tune control.

Equipment

Retractable claw gloves, grapple hook and night vision goggles.
