Athena Power

## Background

### 1991 - 2013: Athena Power

Athena Power was born to single mother & recent high school graduate, Priscilla Power. Her father's identity remained a mystery to her for majority of her life. Her curiosity on the subject was curbed after her mother began dating Theodore O'Day when Athena was four. Theo also had a daughter himself, who Athena quickly latched on to. When the pair got married in the summer of '98, Athena was ecstatic to have a sister. She remembers her childhood filled with her trying to dress & be like Angel.

### 2013 - Present: Tough Bunny

After finishing high school & college, Athena returned back home. She felt that she had nothing to do or going for herself. In her anger, she threw a mug across the kitchen which then put a hole in the cabinet.. and the wall.. and the car parked outside. When her mother saw the damage, she believed that Athena must have been passed the meta-gene from her biological father. Deciding it was time for the two to meet, she revealed his identity to her daughter... Steve Trevor.

Looking back, Athena realizes she probably didn't go about their first meeting the right way. She made her way to National City & asked to meet with Steve, who she knew was there due to a press conference that ARGUS was having. But due to not being on the short-list, she was refused at the door. It soon turned pretty hostile with Athena shouting how she was Steve's daughter then her accidentally pushing a guard into a wall with her uncontrollable strength. Eventually, Steve came out to see the commotion. When she introduced herself as Athena Power, Steve quickly recognized the last name & got a good estimate of the girl's age. After apologizing to the guards (and paying their medical bills & leave), he met with Athena formally. When the tests revealed what Athena was saying was true, Steve welcomed her with open arms.

Though Athena did not find the source of her meta-gene in Steve, she did find a great father in the process. The two quickly bonded, making up for the lost time of two decades of not knowing each other. As the two caught up, Athena became quite fascinated with Steve's occupation at ARGUS. Hearing of his everday dealings with the Justice League, she decided to use her powers for a better purpose & become a superhero herself.

She quickly found herself in a group with other budding superheroes. Their most common attribute was their lack of control & training. While their heart was in the right place, they did not live up to the standards of other known superheroes teams. When it became clear that the group resulted in more property damage than the diminishment of crime, they were brought in by the DEO & essentially were forced to disband. However, Niles Caulder found the group to be quite fascinating & used some of his pull with Bones to get the team relocated to Danny the Street so that he could study them. Since then, Athena has joined the ranks of the Doom Patrol, married (and divorced) a fellow member & become a force to be reckoned with.
