Stella ‘Backstabber’ Hunter

Backstabber, real name Stella Hunter is a villain from Static Shock who served as the main antagonist in the episodes "Backstabber" and "Stella’s Enemy". She is voiced by Melissa Greenspan.
==Background==
During most of her time in school as a way to maintain control, she constantly bullied other students, mostly girls, but boys as well, one if those girls was Madelyn Spaulding, whom was one of her favorite targets, as she made her life miserable at school by spreading rumors about her and thus not make anyone want to be friends with her anymore and then both physically and verbally bullying her. She did the same thing to other students spreading rumors about them to make herself look better in comparison and physically and verbally bullied those same people, she even physically and verbally bullied whom she never spread rumors about and vice versa.
During Middle School and High School, she was the captain of the cheerleading team and president of the newspaper club, she used to credibility as president of the former to publish defamatory newspapers about other students. and as leader of both the cheerleading team and newspaper club, she had a reputation of being quite controlling and even bullying and blackmailing her fellow members as a way of keeping them in line.
During her late Middle School and High School years, she began doing actual crime out on the streets, such as vandalism and stealing.
===During The Big Bang.===
Like any criminal during that time, she was at the docks during The Big Bang, afterwards she developed some powers of her own:
*Telepathy
*Enhanced Hearing that she can always revert back to average as if there was an invisible switch on her that controlled her hearing.
*Even though she doesn't turn into a monster-like being when she's angry she still has some Enhanced Strength
These powers made her even more control in both her criminal and school life as she could just read other people's minds and hear what they said miles away and spread it all over the school. In her criminal life she was often nicknamed 'Backstabber' due to her routinely backstabbing and blackmailing her 'allies', which she accepted as her supervillain name.
===Backstabber===
She was first seen bullying a girl by throwing her onto the lockers and threatening her, when Static, Gear, and Jimmy stand up for her, she laughs and states that no one has ever stood up for her before, they question what she means by that, she is shocked by what she had been asked and asks if they know who she is and that she can ruin their lives in just a few seconds, they attempt to challenge her, but just then, the bell rings and they head off to class, afterwards, Jimmy is assigned his first secret agent duties, see what's up with Stella, so after school he follows her into an alleyway where he see her with her girl chique and the girl that she had bullied earlier looking even more injured than she was before and they were painting the walls with spray paint and after Jimmy takes some photos, he falls and when Stella hears a thud she goes and sees what that sound was and she sees Jimmy, lying on the ground with some spy gear and a camera, then Stella and her chique took pictures of him with their own cameras and the next day at school, the school was bombarded with pictures of Jimmy in that state with the caption "Not changed a bit", this didn't discourage Jimmy however as he still had the images of Stella and her clique vandalizing the alleyway so after school he gave all the images of her and her clique vandalizing the alleyway and afterwards Stella along with her clique were thrown into juvie.
Afterwards reports of bullying by Stella were being seen by The Principal, who expelled her while she was still in juvie.
===Stella’s Enemy===
Hearing about her being a Bang Baby and what she had done The Meta-Breed helped her escape juvie and Madelyn Spaulding, hearing that she now joined The Meta-Breed attacked her saying that she doesn't deserve to be in The Meta-Breed, Ebon pulled them apart and told them that they better be on their best behavior, for they are about to plan a heist in The Dakota Mall and they need to be on their best behavior if they want it to work and as expected Static and Gear defeated them once more, afterwards both Stella and Madelyn fight with each other, blaming themselves for the heist going awry.
=== Power Outage Part I and II===
She appears in a cameo in both episodes as one of the bang babies who had her powers removed.
==Relationships==
===Her Girl Clique===
She supposedly had a good relationship with them at least until she escaped from juvie, however it's speculated that the only reason why they hung around her is that they were afraid of being bullied by her.
=== Alyssa ===
Like Madelyn Spaulding, she was also a frequent target of bullying by Stella and was even forced at one point in time to do crime with her and her girl posse, but unlike Madelyn, she never turned evil due to her constant bullying and is even friends with Virgil, Richie, and Jimmy.
=== Marcus ===
He was her boyfriend as mentioned in the episode "Mentor", however he wasn't present in either "Backstabber" or "Stella’s Enemy" so it's not clear how their relationship went however.
===The Meta-Breed (excluding Madelyn Spaulding)===
She's grateful for the fact that they had helped her escape juvie and she helps them in all of their plans from then on.
===Madelyn Spaulding===
In school Stella used to bully Madelyn Spaulding and is what caused her to become the person she is now so naturally they have a lot of contempt for one another and thus right after she joined The Meta-Breed Madelyn attacked her and after their first heist failed they blamed each other for it.
===Static, Gear, and Jimmy Osgood===
As they were the ones responsible for her being thrown into juvie and ruining her reputation she feels the need for revenge against them for everything they've done to her.
