Backstory
Twenty years ago, a top secret military project was launched to develop a genetic augmentation program to engineer the perfect soldier. Experimental gene therapy treatments were used on unborn children to enhance their strength, senses, and reflexes. They were raised by the Project, and their potential further enhanced as they grew by rigorous training and surgical augmentation. Four years ago, an anonymous whistleblower tipped the media off about the Project - amid massive public outcry, it was hastily dismantled. The surviving subjects were put through intensive psychiatric rehabilitation and placed with specially selected foster families to be reintegrated into society.
Jennifer Jericho, aka Subject C-17, was among those placed in Halcyon City. Since being fostered by A.E.G.I.S agent Cal Jericho, she has attended the Halcyon Academy of Unconventional Sciences. Her commitment to the idea of reintegrating into normal society is best described as “grudging”. Having been trained from infancy for combat, she still views much of civilian life as mundane and petty. At school, her grades are mixed, with a stark difference readily visible between what she finds interesting and what she doesn’t. She has rotated through most of the school’s sports teams and most physically-focused activity clubs - notably having been asked to leave the school hockey team for what the coach tactfully described as “excessive enthusiasm” - but finds having to hold back against non-augmented opponents frustrating.
