Origins
Early Life
Antonio "Tony" Moralez was born into a lower class family of Mexican immigrants in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Being the second of four boys meant that he was constantly proving himself towards his older brother while simultaneously trying to look after his younger siblings, to varying degrees of success. Life wasn't kind to the Moralez family and many days, they ended up going hungry. Tony's older brother Diego turned to crime at a young age, and Tony himself was roped into it eventually. Tony was a clever kid with a natural aptitude for mathematics and working with his hands, but a mixture of bad influences, poor social structure, lack of funds and no small amount of prejudice prevented him from harnessing these talents for something useful.
That all changed when Diego stepped over the line and shot a policeman dead during drugdeal gone bad. Seeing his brother be hauled in by the police and sentenced to life in prison changed Tony's view on the world and himself. He grew determined to make something out of himself, rather than falling down the same path as his older brother had taken. He wanted to be a role model for his younger siblings and show them that they could change their lot in life. And the best way to go about that without neither a proper education nor an impressive resume was to fake his age and become a soldier for his country. It would be a rocky road from there for Tony, but he managed to join the USAF through a mix of sheer determination and dumb luck. Within the army, Tony's talents suddenly came to bear and he made quite the name for himself as an Ace Pilot, aside from being an extremely loyal and patriotic soldier.
By the time he turned 21, he had already flown several high priority missions for his country. However, when a freak accident involving thermite caused him to lose parts of his eye sight, it marked the end of Tony's days as an ace pilot. However, as luck would have it, the youngster's fearless attitude, unquestionable patriotism and physical excellence was just what PRIMUS was looking for in their Silver Avenger initiative, and an offer to join them was extended to Tony after his discharge from the Air Force. Without a moment's hesitation, Tony Moralez agreed and underwent the procedure with stellar results. He would continue to serve as a Silver Avenger for almost half a decade, where he would first meet with the woman then known as Catherine Hawke. Their attraction grew stronger over their first year of working together and they eventually became an item. It was shortly before Tony's 25th birthday that she announced her pregnancy to him, and they mutually decided it was time for them to retire from the business and raise a family together. Tony put all his academical talent into gaining a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering in just two years, in order to support his new family.
Current Events
Tony's relationship with his daughter's mother didn't last very long, sadly. Shortly after the birth of their first child, the truth about Catherine Hawke's identity came to bear in the worst possible manner: As it turned out, Catherine Hawke was a sleeper agent put into PRIMUS by VIPER; and when she was no longer with the organization, they decided it was time to call her back to base to report on her findings. Reactivated as Operative Mantis, Catherine attempted to assassinate both Tony and their infant child, though Tony caught her in the act and retaliated. Mantis fled the scene eventually, finding herself unable to kill her former lover and their child (Wether this was solely because of their respective military training or her own subconscious is unknown).
Tony was quite distraught by this revelation, alling into a brief period of depression as a result. However, he made the decision that he couldn't just leave things as they were. Using his knowledge within Civil engineering and keeping his talent as a fighter pilot in his mind, he sat down and designed himself a Fly suit and heroic moniker. Partly as a means to cope with the situation, but also with the faint hope that becoming a Superhero would one day bring him face-to-face with VIPER... and possibly Catherine as well.

Mantis
Name: Catherine Hawke
Abilities: Mantis Powersuit, Olympic-level Gymnast and acrobat, Peak physical condition
Affiliations: VIPER
Operative Mantis is one of VIPER's most loyal subjects and agents, loyal to the point where she willingly allowed herself to be mind-wiped and imprinted with false memories so that she could infiltrate PRIMUS to steal information from them. However, her mission was cut short before coming to full fruition when she met and fell in love with Silver Avenger Tony Moralez. While her reactivation by VIPER cut their relationship short, there may still be parts of her that still hold love for him and their child within her heart... but that is completely drowned out by her unshakable loyalty towards the Supreme Serpent.
