The Contingency - Lightshow

Lightshow/Black Light PL 10

John called her "The Girl with Kaledoscope Eyes"

Background

Lucille Diamande Lux's publist likes to say that she managed to crawl out the slums of New Orleans, through a combination of determination, grit, good looks, and extra-sized double helping of talent. While the part about the talent and looks are true, her father was a respected doctor who worked at a "Colored hospital" in Louisianna. She started off as a backup singer to Jackson Brown, then lead singer of Dee Lux and the Bouffants and paid her way through college with a major in art. When she saw the direction of rock and roll and pop art about to change, she hopped on board. With her contacts in the music world and her career skyrocketed.

She was hired to create a lightshow extravaganza for one the Beatles first concerts. It was like a dream come true. However a rival artist, who later bacame Crazy Quilt showed up with a plan to take over the concert's cutting edge laser light show. Which by the way featured the recently developed holograms. Crazy Quilt, mad genius that he is, augemented the eqipment to emit solid light and tied up poor Lucille to the transmitter. At midnight when eyes were upon here, he would pull the switch and everyone watching in person and on TV would be under his control. To make a long story short, the SWAT team came and saved the day. Almost. Unable to turn off the device Lucille sacrificed herself and absorbed all the psychodelic light energy, eating her up alive. Almost. Lucille is now composed of living psychodelic light, and can summon swirling masses of solid light to entrap, damage or entrance her opponents. Lucy can also transform herself into solid light to teleport and fly away, leaving images of diamonds in her wake.

While she can re-assume her human form, she cannot hide her "kaleidoscope eyes." She normally wears big sunglasses to hide them.

Officlally goes by the name "Lightshow." However the newpapers and people seemed fixted on teh fact she was black and so she is commonly known as "Black Light." She will only stresses the piont of the person is a jerk.

Oh, and if the team wants a submarine she knows where you can get a yellow one, cheap
