Becoming a Hero
While it is well-known that Katalyst is indeed a hero, she almost never tells the tale of her "inspiration"; she was never gifted with any truly superhuman abilities.
--Katalyst, when asked to explain her origin story.
It had taken a lot of convincing, but herein lies her story...
A Troubling Childhood
Born outside of Millennium City and raised within its limits, the first six years of her life were generally typical for a tomboyish little girl. She loved to rough-house, play with her pet puppy, run laps around her yard, and just generally do things that a young girl could love doing. In the seventh year of her life, her entire world was turned inside out.
Nine days after her seventh birthday, her family got a sinister phone call from a friend. "You guys have to move out of there... Out of state, something! I don't know who did it, but there's somebody after your family.. Please, you must leave!" It was the last Katalyst ever heard from them. The friend had chosen to move somewhere far away just four days later, out of state.
On the third week after her birthday, they came.
A squad of mafia men, dressed in pure black and white, armed with rifles and pistols. They banged on the front door, readying to knock it down. Told to hide and stay silent, Katalyst climbed her way up into the rafters of her home, hiding behind beams, and was watching the two groups down below. Every single one of the men fired on them, and a brutal slaughter ensued. Every one of her close family members, even the poor puppy, was massacred. They had radioed to their boss that her family was dead, and left the house a bloody mess. After the squad left she silently climbed down, looking everyone over, a single tear streaking down her face.
Her last thought, and her first one of true violence:To this day she is still unsure of the motive behind their attack: "I've just never understood why they would do that; my family wasn't rich, we did not have ties to anything even remotely important, and the only people close to us were in the same situation...."
A Time to Learn
A New Dawn
The Technology
All of Katalyst's gear was actually made by her hands and she takes pride in the end results of her work. She continues to edit her equipment on a daily basis, and can seemingly add a new feature to her equipment every month. Possibly the greatest note about her equipment is that she edits things in secret, without aid. Her primary two pieces of equipment that she keeps with her at all times are the S.P.E.E.D. and the K.E.B.
The S.P.E.E.D
The K.E.B
Trivia
- Although she was created by a purely unique idea, she evolved to possess quite a few references.
- Her "glowing visor" that gathers information is based off of the Scan Visor from the Metroid Prime trilogy.
- The black jumpsuit she wears resembles the Zero Suit from Metroid games
- Her armor's ability to directly "teleport" onto her is, yet again, another Metroid reference.
- She leaves a Tron-like trail when she runs, and is said to run at Sonic speeds.
- She is one of the few truly human "superheroes" in the Champions universe (in proportion to all other types of heroes.)
- Something caused her to have a fear of heights, and it kept her from developing a jet pack or rocket boots.
