Real Name: Katrina Hale

Villainess Name: Talon

Appearence: Young, commonly referred to as beautiful or model-like, with platinum blond hair and sharp grey eyes, appearing wise beyond her years. In any of her outfits, a bit of skin is always shown to tease any who might pass.

Talon: Her costume consists of a prevalent midnight black offset by silver undertones, lightly armored padding betrayed by the appearance of the suit, her chest and legs showing open slivers of skin to tease and distract her opponents, also used as locations to contain knives, explosives, listening devices, etc if her utility belt or other pouches are full.

Her bracers are lined with faux silver fur, the right containing a hidden grappling hook, her left a dart launcher filled with all manner of varying 'ammunition'. Her gloves contain hand-flex activated steel claws, used for offense or scaling walls if needed. Lastly, her knee high heel boots are steel-tipped, and can serve as weapons in themselves during close quarters combat, the soles containing impact regulators so she may land from perilous heights without injury...

Worthy of note, on her back in costume is an always sheathed, custom made katana of unknown origin, it's strikes always leaving a trail of indigo energy in it's wake, identifiable as indigo...

Powers and Abilities: Katrina has no known superhuman powers. Her natural abilities however, such as strength, speed, reaction time, reflexes, flexibility, coordination, and agility have been honed to inhuman levels due to nearly two decades of training. In addition to these skills, she is an expert swordswoman, gifted martial artist, specializing in Aikido, and uncanny escape artist, often giving the idea that she is simply a specter, an illusion to any would be captors.

Finally, while being sociable is never her intention, she is a talented liar, grifter by extension, and if nessecary, a seductress, using wit and charm to get her way if blades do not accomplish the job first...

Trained in the use of blades and martial combat, Katrina was a natural if not uncanny combatant, remaining one of her 'mother's' most talented operatives and 'children'. However, Katrina, as she grew became more and more aware of the true sinister nature of her home, the secrets kept behind closed and bloodied doors, and as the eve of of her 18th birthday grew closer, she desired an escape...

However, one does not simply desert Madame Florence's, and Katrina was forced to fight in a makeshift and merciless arena underneath the orphanage, eventually besting her fellow sisters, and finally her own corrupt and nefarious mother, who unfortunately escaped. However, not before managing to steal the Strix serum, the secret behind the improbable combat prowess of Lady Nightingale, and her international acolytes...

Now, Katrina, taking the moniker Talon to mock her former family, operates as a thief and assassin for hire, vowing to NEVER be controlled again...

Her activities as of yet within Titan City are not known, but if her reputed actions and sightings as a murderess and vagabond still hold true across the world, this no doubt alluring and dangerous woman is never without a plan...
