Beatriz de Costa

### 2007 - Present: Fire

During her time with Checkmate, she became very close to another agent, Tora Olafsdotter. Due to their complimenting powers, the two would often be paired up for missions together. They were successful in majority of their mission for Checkmate but their powers eventually put them on the League's radar. With Flash recommending the both of them, they were nominated to became members of the Justice League. However, the founders thought it would be best for them to do a year with the Titans. She joined the Titans, alongside Ice & took on the codename Fire. After a year, her & Ice both became members of the Justice League in 2009.

With her good looks, Beatriz caught the eye of many leaguers & went on dates with many of them though she only claims Ted Kord as an ex-boyfriend.

However, Beatriz would eventually find love in the hands of another teammate, Don Hall. The two would go on to have a son & named him Daniel. Unfortunately, Don would be killed in battle before he got a chance to really see his child grow up. She took a leave of absence from crimefighting following his death so that she could focus on their kids but she eventually picked up the mask again.
