Major Renown

Major Renown is a Fashion Designer who was caught in a chemical explosion which granted her Metahuman powers.
== History ==
Juniper Goldman started her life in Southern California, in the San Fernando Valley. June was an average student, went to Temple on the Sabbath, argued with her mom, and manipulated her Dad, as was expected of her as a young Jewish girl growing up in "The Valley".
In the looks department, June, for some reason, did not take after her well-endowed mother. She was an A-cup, at best, and was rather gangly. She was pretty enough, with blue eyes and blonde hair, but she was also short, only reaching 5' 1" at the age of 18.
June started Community College after graduating from High School and was told by her parents that it was time that she got a job. Her father owned a "five and dime" which stocked just about everything that a family would need. One day, when a salesman from Lorraine's Lingerie stopped by to receive her father's order, her Dad asked the salseman if there were any jobs available with their company. The salesman mentioned that they needed an admin in their Brassiere department and he would put in a word with HR.
A few months went by and saw June working at Lorraine's, doing well and enjoying her job. June was well liked and respected for her knowledge of brassieres. It turned out that June spent most of her time studying patterns, weights, fit, and fabric for bras. Being that June was such a small breasted young woman, she obsessed over bust size and the accoutrement of said bodily parts.
A few years went by and June graduated from college with an AA in Fashion Design. With her high marks, she was accepted to Iowa State University and was ready to pursue her chosen career field. While June was at college, she had met a girl named Terry Bingham. Terry was pursuing a degree in Chemical Engineering and they had always talked about combining their talents to create the perfect bra, one that woman all over the world would want. It would be form fitting, able to grow and shrink as needed by various women during "that time of the month". If they gained weight, the bra would stretch and still offer support. If they lost weight, the bra would shrink and would not sag. Terry had also thought about adding a wear life to the bra, to keep woman buying new bras every two years, thinking that they were just wearing them out. It seemed they both had an idea that would help woman and make themselves a ton of cash.
The summer before June went to ISU was a busy one. June had been promoted at work and was churning out designs by the armful, keeping her best designs for herself and Terry. Terry was busy trying to create the perfect cloth that they would need. One day, at the house that they rented together, Terry was in the garage, where she had set up her makeshift lab. Terry had asked June to come home early as she had a surprise for her.
June came home just after lunch and rushed into the lab. Terry was there with a sewing mannequin. Terry hurriedly called June over. June wondered what all the urgency was and Terry showed her. Terry had rigged the mannequin to expand and contract. The bra that she had on it hugged the surfaces and never wavered in its ability to provide support. It was strong as well. Terry showed June that it could take a knife stab and not be damaged. It was also fireproof. June had mentioned to Terry that, although she was elated that Terry had finally cracked the formula needed that could be added to the fabric, she didn't understand why she had added the other parts. Terry mentioned that even though this had started for the civilian sector, why couldn't they design something that could also server the ladies in the Military. June thought that was a phenomenal idea.
A few days later saw the weather change and it was now overcast and gloomy, with rain about to start. June was on her way home from work in the rain when lightning struck a tree near her car. The tree fell and June just barely avoided it. As she pulled over to calm herself, she thought to call Terry. Terry answered her phone and June mentioned what happened. Terry was glad to hear that June was alright when June heard a window shatter over the phone. Terry told her that the wind and rain had broken the window and that she’d need help cleaning up the lab.
June arrived at the house and went directly to the lab. Terry looked up from her machine table and asked if June could start at the lab station. As June walked over to the station, a stray bolt of lightning entered the window and struck the table. There was a tremendous explosion and Terry was blown back into the house. June, on the other hand, had absorbed the full force of the chemical explosion. She was thrown through the garage door, across the street, and through the front wall of a neighbor's house, to land in their living room. The last thing June thought of was Terry before blacking out.
== Great Expectations ==
June woke up groggy. Her body felt...odd. She opened her eyes and saw that she was in a hospital room with a very loose fitting gown. She noticed that Terry was asleep next to her, her bottom on a chair and her head on the bed. June, again thinking about her body, thought that her feet seemed a little farther away than what she was used to. As she looked at her feet, she couldn't help notice that the gown seemed to be in the way. She also felt a bit heavier as well. June went to push the loose gown down and noticed that it wasn't the gown in the way, but that it was her bust! She was HUGE! She gasped aloud and Terry woke up. Terry saw that June was awake and she screamed in joy. The scream brought the nurse and in turn, the nurse brought the doctor.
During the ensuing chaos, June learned what had happened. The doctor told her that she had been brought in with chemical burns all over her chest and abdomen, as well as missing most of the skin on her face. He said that, while she had been admitted to the E.R., she really didn't seem to need it. As they had started wheeling her in to surgery, they had noticed that her skin and muscles were knitting back together. They could actually see the muscle fibers growing, adding to the muscle she already had. The fibers searched out the injured muscle and proceed to slough off the old, damaged, and burned parts and completely replace them. This happened all over her body. They had thought, initially, that her face would at least have a little scaring, but that turned out not to be the case. Her face healed just fine.
The doctor mentioned that he had a friend in research over at Yoyodyne and that June should give him a call. Once everyone left the room, June turned to Terry and asked what the hell had actually happened. Terry told her that the extreme heat of the lightning strike had set off the chemical compound that she had created for the brassiere fabric. This pushed it beyond its boiling point in a matter of nanoseconds. Unfortunately, June happened to be right next to it. Terry surmised that June's genetic make-up had worked overtime to compensate for the extreme damage and was helped by the properties of the compound. Terry had already been back to house, which was a complete loss, but was able to recover her notes for the formula. Terry had a theory that, although June was in peak physical form, with a large set of breasts to go along with that, the effect would only last a few years, maybe less depending on the wear and tear June put on her new body. Terry wanted to run a few tests on June before June looked up the doctor's friend at Yoyodyne.
== You Can Do What?! ==
A week later, after June had straightened everything out with her Rabbi, who, for his own worth never mentioned the changes he saw, June and Terry had found a small apartment in a bad part of town. All the money that they had been saving to start their own company had gone to lawyers to protect them from the lawsuits that had shown up after the explosion had created so much damage. Terry did not go back to Lorrain's for fear of all the questions she would have to answer. June now stood 6' 4", was built like a brick shithouse, and size EE breasts. During the last week, June could not stop playing with them. All her life she had wished for breasts and here they were. They had cost her, and Terry, so very much, but June could deal with that later.
Terry came in to the apartment with a couple of bags full of what looked like medical supplies. June asked Terry where she had acquired the supplies and Terry just smiled. Hoping that larceny was not going to be a new part of their lives, June submitted to Terry's poking and prodding. This was easy to accomplish as June had taken to not wearing a top around the house. As she had been flat chested before, she still didn't feel the need to wear a bra either. The first thing they noticed was that June's skin had become impervious to injury. She could be hurt, her nerve endings still worked at a reduced rate, but her skin would simply not part to any weapon they tried. Terry marked it down on a sheet she had on a clipboard. At the top of the sheet the header read "Things to have Yoyodyne test".
This continued all day and well into the night. The results were sketchy at best, what with the actual lack of testing equipment in their apartment, but certain things HAD been learned. June was strong, able to lift at least 2 tons if she pushed herself. She was fast, given that her muscles were always regenerating. She could jump very high, 10 stories at least. June's metabolism had also been sped up, making her impervious to airborne viruses or sickness. June's mind also worked extremely fast, again due to the advanced metabolism. While she had not actually had an increase in her intelligence, she was able to process information many times faster than any normal human. The one drawback that Terry saw was June's insistence of not wearing a top. June simply refused to wear one now, stating that all her life she had thought that if she only had at least a B-cup, she would show them off every chance she got. Being a double E, nope, no top was EVER going to set foot on her body again. All of June's senses had been increased as well, except for her sense of touch. That had actually decreased. Terry surmised that it was June's body's way of compensating during the traumatic injury it had sustained. She felt things, just a bit diminished than what normal people felt.
The next day June and Terry packed their bags, took their findings, and headed on the long trip to Yoyodyne.
