Jesse Wells

## Background

### 1993 - 2014: Jesse Wells

Jesse Wells was born to Harrison Wells & Tess Chambers, the founders of S.T.A.R. Labs. At an early age, she received the nickname "Jesse Quick" due to her sharp intellect & quick-thinking nature. Her parents frequently brought her along to work, nourishing her passion for science. While she enjoyed her parents' place of business, she did occasionally get scared by her father's "work voice."

When she was eight, her family visited the lake like they do every other month for family bonding time. On their way back, heavy rain was coming down. Harrison lost control of the car, killing his wife in the accident. After her mother's death, Jesse remained to herself & would just sit in the corner of her dad's office with her head in a new book.

It was soon obvious that Jesse was much more advanced than the other kids in her class. Using his connections, her father had her tested & learned that Jesse was essentially a genius.

After skipping many grades, she graduated from high school at the age of fifteen, living up to her parents' expectations & their intelligence. She stayed local so that she was close to her father & enrolled at Midwestern University. She graduated six years later with not one but four majors under her belt.

While going for her fifth degree, the university was attacked by Zoom. He took Jesse captive, most likely because of her father's connection to the Flash Legacy. For eight weeks, Jesse was held prisoner by Zoom, who decided to keep her alive so he could kill her in front of her father. Though most of it was spent in her lair, he had caused her harm in multiple encounters. Eventually, Jesse was rescued by her father, Flash, Frostbite & Vibe.

Returning back to college, Jesse began studying superheroes, especially the Flash Legacy & the Justice League. Naturally, her thesis topic became "The Impact of Superheroes on Society" & she began to follow the heroes, cataloging their adventures. When her father asked her to deliver some documents to the Flash, she somehow ended up in a "race" with him. What started as a mere joke turned into a realization that Jesse was a metahuman with a connection to the Speed Force. Jesse stopped her studying superheroes to become one herself.
