Editing Masks: Halcyon Superheroics 101: La Rabia (section)

'''Who changed you?'''

Colonel Edge has a vision he calls “Ultra Branch” - a new division of the US military dedicated to handling super-powered threats, and deploying super-powered soldiers to achieve military ends. Toward that end he began recruiting young people for experimental treatments developed by Dr. Rush. Some were outright failures: some died, many were left permanently disabled. But a few developed super-powers.

'''How did you escape from them?'''

It turns out that giving a bunch of young people powers and assuming they will somehow become a disciplined fighting force doesn’t work that well. Some just left, but a few took advantage of their powers to become villains. Maria decided she had to stop them. As a result, the whole program got exposed, and the ethical and legal problems meant Col. Edge was disgraced. But he and Dr. Rush are still out there.

'''Who, outside the team, tries to take care of you now?'''

My family: mom and dad and little sister Alejandra. And BFF Dee is thrilled I’m back from “the service.”

'''Why do you try to be a hero?'''

They think Latina means dumb.

They think girl means weak.

They think quiet means compliant.

I’m going to prove them wrong.

'''Why do you care about the team?'''

They seem like they want to use their powers to do something right.
