Powerwhine is a Canadian Syndicate enforcer who also is probably one of the most beautiful and talented in the organization. Known for her powerful vocal abilities she has been inspired by the Occupant to higher aspiration, even pursuing a singing career.
==History==
Dominique Freeman was born in Angel Falls. Her closest companion while she growing up was her cousin Jamahl. After she graduated high school, she got a job at one of the factories in the city. One day while she walikng home, she took a shortcut through a junkyard. The dogs who guarded it began to chase her. She fled but tripped. As the vicious canines got closer to her, she screamed. The dogs collapsed, convulsing in seizures. She left but the incident stayed with her. She practiced and learned the extent of her abilities. Then she used them to rob a jewelery store. Afterwards, she ran into Jamahl who had joined the Canadian Syndicate. Since she trusted him, she told him about her power, and he suggested that she join the group.
Her duties were mostly to accompany gang members on their rounds and deal with those who refused pay protection money, mainly by using her power to destroy shops and disorienting people, although she refused to kill people or even harm them in any serious manner, as while she knew she was a criminal, she didn't want to be a murderer. She accompanied the second-in-command of the Syndicate, the World's Wickedest Weed, when it tried to arrange an allience with a crime boss from a neighboring city, and subdued both him and his bodyguard with her powers when it went bad.
Some time later, the Occupant, having learned that the Syndicate's enemies the Fourth Reich had been included in the Midnight Queens charity book, convinced Dominique to pose topless by stroking her ego and providing her with a vacation. Her confidence boosted, she went topless again later during a battle with the Reich. When the vigilante the Widow assaulted a Syndicate drug factory, Powerwhine attempted to stop her, but was incapacitated by a thrown garbage can lid to the throat. The Widow prepared to kill her, but the Weed distracted the vigilante long enough for her to escape. She later learned that the injury slightly altered her power. Soon after, she help steal a large quanity of drugs from the Dock Father, but they were in turn stolen by a group of junkies. However, before she could try and get them back, she literally stumbled into a group of theives who had just robbed a pawn shop. She, with the help of Silver Mist, beat the criminals and stole their car and loot. As the two women were driving away, Dominique spotted the junkies in their stolen vehicle and had Juanita subdue them. Feeling a closeness to each other, Dominique offered to split the money from the drugs and for Juanita to move into her house, while Juanita offered to help her get a job at Paudriac's, although she turned it down at the time.
Dominique took Juanita to meet the Occupant; he gave Dominique the Artemis anit-metahuman armor and offered the two women three billion dollars to steal the cuurency, gold, and bonds in the vault at the US Federal Reserve Building in Angel Falls. He also encouraged the friendship between the two women and helped them purchase a house in the suburbs as well as encouraging Dominique to apply for a position at Paudriac's, although the later for his own interests. She did, and got a job as a singer. Powerwhine and Silver Mist also managed to pull off the currency heist, but a few days later, Powerwhine was attacked by Invictus and Sahlia on behalf of the Dock Father. However, she and Juanita quickly dealt with them and the two assassins quickly realised they were being manipulated by the Dock Father, and the four women began to make plans to  turn things to their own advantage.
Some time later, while Powerwhine was performing at Paudriac's under the stage name of Mary Jane, she was attacked but used her powers to subdue all those in the room, including the Guardian Gothstrike, who was there on an investigation.
==Powers==
Powerwhine can generate a near-hypersonic wave. It causes brittle substances like glass to shatter. In humans, it affects the inner ear, disrupting balance and causing vertigo and nausea. In beings that can hear in a higher range than humans, being exposed to it causes seizures. It is an area effect and everyone within range is affected by it, although strong ear protection can protect people from it, as can those who are unable to hear high pitched sounds. Recently, following a throat injury, Powerwhine discovered that she could project a focused beam of sound which causes the target to pass out due to their senses being overloaded.  
Powerwhine usually carries an energy pistol with her, although she rarely uses it since she prefers to rely on her power and doesn’t want to kill anyone. The Occupant has gifted her with an anti-meta human armor called the Artemis. It can protect her from hard impacts and bullets up to .50 caliber. It also has a perpetual shielding unit which protects the wear from heat or cold, and can hold a pocket of 10 minutes worth of air.
