Elaine Marsh-Morton

## Background

### 1971 - 1989: Elaine Marsh-Morton

Lady Elaine Marsh-Morton was married to Lord Steven Morton & his wife, Lady Claire Marsh in the city of London. The Morton family was one of the long & distinguished lines of British mercenaries extending back to her family's Norman roots, thus making her a genuine English aristocrat.

In short, Elaine was born into money. She was surrounded by luxury, wealth & everything else she wanted. Things were great until they weren't.

At the age of sixteen, both of her parents perished in the bombing of London. The bombing took her family & their home, leaving her an orphan & homeless. She got herself emancipated & moved into the ancestral Morton family estate but with most of her family dead, there wasn't much money to keep it afloat. Using all of her trust fund money & the money from their insurance, she was able to prevent foreclosure of the family estate.

### 1989 - Present: Lady Vic

Where Elaine went for the following years remain a mystery but everyone said she had a cold look in her eye upon her return. And unknown to them, she already had some victims underneath her belt.

Over the years, she's set herself apart from most other assassins not just by her considerable skill, but by her ruthlessness & determination. She uses all the money she earns to prevent foreclosure on her impoverished family estate.

She's come across many organizations such as the League of Shadows, even working regularly with their top assassins such as Deathstroke, Goliath & The Magician.

In 2015, she became the enforcer for The Light, taking the place of Lady Shiva following the League of Shadow's fallout with the organization.
