> *"Can I be honest with you? I actually have no idea. I just, woke up, looked in a mirror, and thought, 'Well, it's time to make some money'. I did a lot of odd jobs round the world, but I only get paid as much as a minimum wage worker because they call me 'too dangerous'. All I know about me is, I have purple hair, creepishly grey skin and eyes, I have grenades for hands, picking up any gun feels like I've used it for so long... and apart from my name, that's about it. That's all there is to me, I guess."*

For many years, Emily has worked various mercenary jobs around the world, getting to put her own team to eliminate targets, though this left many of her employers in bad taste. Having returned to New York after a while, she thinks she runs the place, however a chance encounter left her with many questions she wants answered, by any means necessary.

## Appearance

Emily is 5'10, weighs 134 lbs, has neck-length purple hair, bleached eyes, and bleached skin.

Unlike her 919 counterpart, she has no tattoos on her body, and also does not have her own costume, rather she is seen wearing clothing she stole from a thrift store or laundromat, and also always wears a pair of sunglasses whenever given the chance.

## Relationships

* Rogue (Anna Marie) (friend, deceased)
* Beta Ray Bill (temporary enemy, deceased)
* Spark (Scott Anderson) (situational enemy)
* Moonlight (Mizuki Chibana) (aquaintance)

## Powers/Abilities

* **Enhanced Durability:** Emily's physical durability (ability to endure/resist damage) is extremely high, allowing them to take numerous blows of internal or external assaults before succumbing to the effects. Emily can also survive extreme heights.
* **Bulletproof Durability:** Emily is immune to bullets and gunfire, since she has extremely thick skin.
* **Grenade Generation:** Emily can generate grenades from her hands at will.
* **Physical Pain Suppression:** Emily can block out the physical pain inflicted on her, allowing her to continue the fight and think clearly.
* **Weapon Proficiency:** Emily only needs to pick up a weapon before they instantly become proficient in it. The first time she picks up a sword, she can spar with masters, the first time she uses a bow, she can hit bulls-eyes. Even alien, magical, or other weaponry that she should not understand comes naturally to her.
* **Vehicle Proficiency:** Emily needs only to get into the driver seat of any vehicle, soon becoming proficient in that. It's like weapon proficiency, except it's for vehicles, no matter what kind and where they are from.

## Skills

* **Mixed Fighting Style:** Over the years, Emily has garned enough experience as a mercenary to create her own fighting style, which compliments her grenade generating abilities. These fighting styles include karate, krav maga and wrestling.
* **Leader:** During her time as a mercenary, Emily earned her nickname "The Boss" as she always came up with the plans, and was often at the forefront of battle, leading her troops.

## Weaknesses

* Emily's cockiness gets the better of her sometimes.
* Though she has extremely durable skin, Emily is still vulnerable to some normal human weaknesses like sickness, drowning etc.
* Emily does not have the strength to carry a weapon that's heavier than an RPG.

## Equipment

* **Glock 17C:** Emily's weapon of choice in gunfights, stolen from a police officer.
* **Organic Fragmentation Grenades:** As a result of being experimented on, Emily can generate grenades from her hands.

## Personality

Emily's a party-type, and despite her age, often acts like a teenager. Even in chaotic situations, Emily is always the one to either lighten the mood for everyone or make it extremely worse. She can be very impatient, but also irritable if one decides to make her angry, her first instinct is to always kill someone without going through her other options.

For a long time, Emily has never shown anything outside of her partying personality. When she met Rogue, it gave her a moment of clarity; a moment to sit down and think, and ask herself where she came from, how she looks like the way it is. More recently, her serious side had begun to merge, and despite having a plan to one day take over New York City, she has a quick change of heart, finding out she really is underneath all the grenades and carnage.

## Origin

Not much is known about Emily's past. All she remembers is her full name, she was born on July 1st, 1987, and she's American. Nothing else. Not her parents, not her hometown, not anything else. A result of illegal human experimentation, which in turn bleached her skin, turned her eyes white, her hair a purple-like colour, having enhanced durability and the ability to generate grenades from her hands, and removing almost everything she remembers.

Emily had woken up in a mysterious place, not knowing where she came from. Upon looking in a mirror, she was seemingly impressed, and after getting used to her powers, she took on mercenary jobs, and had been doing so for many, many years. She always insisted that she hire her own team, which earned her the name "The Boss", always ordering her henchmen to do her bidding and assist her in many operations. Though many were successes, her employers thought otherwise; everywhere she went, there was always destruction left in her wake, which led to less money than she was promised. Less became more less, and soon found herself struggling to get by, even with her powers.

Recently, she found her way back to New York, having been there for some of her past operations. Emily wanted Manhattan for herself; she wanted to control the city in order to get back at the employers who wronged her, all until she met a mutant capable of absorbing powers and her memories through skin contact, named Anna Marie. It wasn't until her chance meeting with the young mutant, Emily had decided to change her path, no longer did she want power...

...she wants answers.
