## Biography

### Early Life and Background

Lady Hex was born Carla Watson in the 2030s to unknown parents. She grew up in Providence, New Britain, Gilead, as a citizen of the British Empire. She earned a scholarship with a renowned university with the British Armed Forces, where she began to develop and embrace anti-British sentiment. This brought her to the attention of the underground resistance movement known as the Congress. After secretly undergoing training with the organization, she officially joined the Congress in the 2050s.

Working under the codename "Hex", Watson quickly rose to become one of the Congress' most effective and efficient operatives, responsible for several operations which greatly destabalized the New Britain economy. She developed an intense hatred of Nazism and was assigned targets related to the American Reich, the territory on North America ruled by the Greater Nazi Reich. It was during this operation that Carla met Shay Pierce, a rising member of the Congress whose reputation was similar to hers: effective, loyal and staunchly anti-British. Carla had a brief romance with Pierce, which ended when she met Joseph Washington: the direct descendent of George Washington and therefore the soon-to-be-leader of the Congress. Carla fell in love with Joseph, much to the hatred of Shay, and married him, eventually having a child with him that they named Luke.

To guard their child, now the latest descedent of George Washington, Carl and her family where moved to the Congress' base at Castle White. When Luke was four years old, British agents discovered the Castle and attacked. Carla gave her son to several Congress agents to keep him safe, before she watched her husband be shot to death by the British soldiers. Carla was captured and interrogated by the British for information of her son's whereabouts, which concluded with the British killing her using Zyklon D.

Despite her role in life as a member of the Congress, the British Special Forces believed her talents in combat and warfare could be used to their advantage. Carla's body was subsequently rebuilt with extensive cybernetic parts before she was resurrected. With her old personality purged, it was replaced with a cruel mind completely loyal to the British. She retained some of her former memories, but they were twisted so she no longer felt attachment or emotion for them. Carla Watson subsequently became Lady Hex, rising to become leader of the British Special Forces in British America. Her resurrection brought the disillusioned Shay Pierce, her former lover, to defect to the British and begin a merciless campaign to wipe out the Congress once and for all.
