Who is she?
Early On
Even in a world of superheroes and the supernatural, Penny is something of an anomaly.
She's just one of those mysteries that refuses to make any sense.
Penny doesn't remember anything about her past, but she doesn't seem to let that bother her.
As far as anyone tell, she first showed up on the streets of Ottawa city in Canada a few years ago.
Her earliest memory is getting off of a bus that the bus driver couldn't recall if she'd gotten on in the first place.
As far as she can remember she's always dressed like a mime.
Or was she clown? She's not actually sure. Maybe its both? It just came naturally to her.
She enjoyed exploring the city, playing charades, doing magic tricks, and goofing around with random people.
Most of them just assumed she was a street performer.
No one even really questioned it, or the fact that she couldn't even talk, it was just part of the act.
They'd even give her tips which is how she managed to get by.
After a few months, she started to get a bit of a reputation around the city.
No one knew her actual name, so they all just called her Charade.
No one knows who first came up with the name, but she liked it.
No one even realized that she was a metahuman with actual superpowers for some time.
Charade was in the middle of performing a card trick for a local superhero when there was an explosion at a bank across town.
The hero, named Weatherman, excused himself and flew off. She decided to tag along.
Charade helped thwart the would-be bankrobbers by distracting them with her goofy antics while Weatherman did all the actual work.
And she had a blast. Supervillains make the best marks for ridicule and practical jokes.
Now she wasn't just a street performer, she was a hero. She liked that.
Weatherman tried to ask her what exactly her powers were, but she just shrugged.
Eventually rumors began to spread and speculations and questions were raised.
Word made its way to the Trismegistus Council, and one of its members, Aloysius Abercrombie took notice.
The 168 year old scholar only looked like he was in his 40's due to the magical energy he channeled that kept him from aging normally.
He suspected her powers might be mystical in origin, and he was curious enough to find out.
