### **Description**

Leonora Free, commonly known as Supernova, is a notorious villain associated with the Paranormal Liberation Front. Her past is deeply intertwined with the dark workings of BASE, as her grandmother was a victim of the organization's experiments, and her mother, Anna Free, was taken by BASE while pregnant with Leonora. Tragically, Leonora's father remained unaware of her existence, leaving her to endure manipulative experiments within BASE to enhance her abilities and develop the Break Then Snap quirk.

Leonora's early childhood was spent within the confines of BASE until the age of seven when she was rescued by her half-uncle, Lewis Burns. However, her time at BASE was wiped from her memory, including any recollection of her mother, who perished during an escape attempt. Only fragments remained, such as knowing she had a half-brother named Nicolás, who was taken to Italy to live with their grandfather, while Leonora was fostered in the UK.

Living a seemingly normal life, Leonora's involvement in petty crime with her unique quirk began around the age of thirteen. By fourteen, she had formed her own gang, engaging in hacking and attacking businesses, which attracted the attention of Lewis Burns. Under Burns' influence, Leonora's gang grew larger and gained notoriety among heroes, eventually forming a partnership with the Ravens.

At the age of sixteen, Leonora took her first life, carrying out an assassination job on behalf of the Ravens. She also became the Ravens' primary hacker, solidifying her position within the organization. However, tragedy struck when a rival villain group in the UK wiped out her entire gang, eliminating potential competition. Once again, Burns came to her rescue, and in a vengeful act, Leonora eliminated all those responsible for the attack.

Strangely, a month after her act of vengeance, Leonora lost all memories of the events leading up to that point.
With the passing of her foster parents, Leonora's vague recollections of them drove her to relocate to America and align herself further with the Ravens, as Burns had informed her of their plans. Burns encouraged her to continue her education while working with the Ravens. In America, Leonora joined the A-Team, a sub-group of the Ravens, unaware that her father, George Newey, secretly ran it.

At the age of eighteen, the other A-Team members discovered Leonora's true age and attempted to convince her to leave. In response, she promised to be cautious, finish her education, and they reluctantly relented. As she turned nineteen, Leonora began college, balancing her studies with her newfound life as a villain. Temporarily distancing herself from the A-Team, she adopted the moniker Solar Queen and carved her own path in the criminal world. She showcased her skills in negotiation and became the face of the Ravens in their dealings.

When Leonora reached the age of twenty-one, the A-Team was kidnapped using a drug that nullified quirks. This triggered the reactivation of Leonora's healing and regenerative powers, causing her injuries from her previous encounter at sixteen to resurface. While in captivity, it was revealed that her former gang was presumed dead, including it's leader the Thinker. However, Leonora managed to free herself from the restraints and fought back against the captors.

It was during this time that George Newey explained the truth to Leonora, revealing the identity of the Thinker and the presumed death of her former crew. Curiosity led Leonora and Diyav, the last living member of her gang, to investigate further, eventually realizing that their unique black quirk, Mind Block's, was responsible for Leonora's blackout episodes. They also discovered that Burns had orchestrated their initial break and subsequently triggered their quirks.

As rumors circulated about Leonora being Burns' child due to their striking resemblance, as well as her resemblance to Burns' daughter Barbara, Leonora and Diyav decided to confirm their suspicions through a DNA test. Diyav managed to obtain some of Burns' blood for testing, and the results showed that Burns was indeed a match, but as an uncle rather than a father. To further unravel Leonora's lineage, Diyav conducted a database search, which revealed that George Newey was her biological father.

With this newfound knowledge, Diyav and Leonora grappled with how to approach George and share their suspicions about Burns. They delved deeper into their investigation and discovered that Leonora's mother, Anna, was Burns' sister, and she had died when they were both seven years old. Determined to confront Burns once more, Leonora persuaded Diyav to let her handle the confrontation alone. Reluctantly, Diyav agreed and aided Leonora in devising a plan.

To strengthen their strategy, they sought the assistance of Trace Collins, who possessed a unique mental linking ability. Both Leonora and Diyav honed their black abilities to block Trace's power, with Leonora focusing on preventing herself from blacking out. Publicly confronting Burns, Leonora surprised him by successfully resisting his mental attacks and maintaining her composure. Burns resorted to utilizing his gold quirk, a power similar to Leonora's, resulting in an intense battle between them, with neither gaining the upper hand.

As the fight ensued, some Ravens joined in, prompting Diyav to intervene and keep them away from the confrontation. Word of the clash reached the A-Team, and its members arrived on the scene, attempting to shield Leonora from the Ravens. Leonora then used her green quirk, Truth Inducement, and Burns started telling the truth, starting with Leonora's parentage. Confusion and tension mounted, teetering on the brink of a full-blown gang war between the A-Team and the Ravens.

However, during the confrontation, Burns continued to confess his secrets. He revealed that Anna, Diyav, Leonora, and five others were once trapped in the Basement, a secret facility operated by BASE. Burns had managed to save everyone except for one person. Anna had valiantly returned to rescue the individual but tragically lost her life in the process.

Additionally, Burns disclosed that there was a powerful telepath within BASE, possessing abilities similar to his own. Although this telepath's presence had caused their breaks, it was not responsible for triggering Leonora's and Diyav's initial quirks. With this revelation, the tension subsided, and a full-blown gang war was averted. The Ravens and the A-Team went their separate ways, and Leonora offered an apology to Burns.

Leonora's quest for answers led her to the realization that the Japanese branch of BASE remained highly active. Motivated to uncover the truth, she made the decision to leave the Ravens and A-Team behind, relocating to Japan. Before her departure, she attempted to visit her foster parents' graves in England but encountered opposition from a Hero who denied her entry. The Hero warned her not to trust Burns, revealing that Burns answered to someone with a formidable mind quirk and he knew how to avoid things, implying that Leonora's own quirk hadn't unveiled the complete truth.

Feeling unsettled by this revelation, Leonora wasted no time and immediately embarked on her journey to Japan. During her time there, she crossed paths with the League of Villains, specifically catching the interest of All For One. Intrigued by Leonora's unique quirk, All For One convinced her to lend her abilities to the league. Leonora formed friendships with several league members and found herself intrigued by the unpredictable path that lay ahead.

While she immersed herself in this new alliance, Leonora continued her covert investigation into BASE, contemplating methods to capture Paul Fujisaki, a victim/experiment of BASE who had managed to retain his memories even after leaving the organization.
