Elizabeth Rowan

### 2013 - Present: Black Betty

While Elizabeth could have easily got herself a well paying job, she instead found herself in an apprentice role for a stage magician named Jeremiah Cain. After being with him for a few months, it was clear that the "stage magician" persona was just an act & Cain was a powerful sorcerer. She received lots on mystical instruction from Cain, furthering improving her own skills. The two even began a relationship but it went nowhere as they were too far along the mentor/mentee track.

Betty continued to accompany Cain on various missions such as adventures in other dimensions like Zerox & combat with other mystical beings. This continued on for years until some of Cain's unsavory dealings put him in the crossfire of Stormwatch. When confronted by the organization, Betty realized that Cain was not as good as she had believed & that she had been tricked yet again by a mentor. In the midst of the battle, she turned on him & helped the Stormwatch agents bring Cain to justice.

Recognizing her skills & her ability to do whats right in tough situations, Agent Jackson King contacted her weeks later about joining the organization. Betty quickly found herself comfortable among the team. Just as she had hoped, she proved to be very helpful in developing countermeasures against mystical threats. She also reconnected with Mysa when she landed on Earth alongside her teammates to stop an alien criminal from destroying the planet. The two quickly restarted their friendship which has since grown into something more.
