Overview
Red Angel is the codename of Angie Redding. Angie is currently a minor league hero in Millennium City. She serves with UNTIL on an ad hoc basis as a combat medic for units headed into high risk scenarios but not usually supervillian confrontations. Outside of missions with UNTIL, she works for a charity called the Faraday Foundation healing sick or injured children for their work.
Angie was the somewhat willing subject of a mad scientist's experimental attempt to create a biological cybernetic copy of a Nephilim. She is not the only such experiment and has ties to a few others like herself.
Beginings
Angie was born in 1994 in Starke Fl, to Corrin and Mary Redding a few years after the family moved there from Ireland. Angie was born with a medical condition that crippled her significantly. The local physicians were never able to determine what the condition was. She grew up in the small town rarely going to school and taught at home by her mother Mary. She has two older siblings Madeline and Louis who mentored her a little as well. Her younger siblings are the twins Harold and Peter, then the baby of the family Gail.
Angie was often unable to spend a lot of time outside of her home without help and her few friends were outcasts and oddballs. Throughout most of her young life she was bitter sarcastic and profoundly anti-social to anyone outside her personal circle or family. Late in her teens she mellowed a bit as her friends grew up and moved away. In addition her younger sister took to Angie and looked up to her. Advised by her other siblings; she tried to improve to be a better example to Gail.
The Blender
In early 2011 Angie was contacted by agents for a medical research project. Her family was offered a chance to participate in a medical research program to diagnose and possibly cure unusual medical conditions like Angie's. Her parents looked into the matter as best they could but due in part to their limited finances they asked Angie if she wanted to participate. The program was presented as a general research program and at first promised no specific effects but would compensate Angie and her family for her time.
The patients in the program were moved to an out of the way medical facility near Vibora Bay. For a year Angie and hundreds over others were processed into the program and some were tested by the program. Angie met, befriended and eventually fell for an older youth, Peter. The range of conditions being tested in the program was shocking to Angie and Peter. She was there for an obvious physical condition as were most of the others. A few like Peter were seeking a more subtle for of assistance.
The first hint that something might be amiss was only noticed by Angie in hindsight. After a year most of the patients were either dismissed from the program or moved to a lower facility called Intensive Care. Once this happened, visits from outsiders for the patients stopped. Visits occurred where the patient would go to a nearby facility to meet family or call them. Of course for the people dismissed, no visits were necessary. For people in Intensive Care it made less sense. Patients in Intensive Care rarely visited the other patients above either. They seemed drugged but not shockingly so, at least to Angie.
As the number of patients not in the lower facility dwindled Angie wondered if she would be dismissed or sent below. In the end she was chosen and never saw the world the same way again. Even in interviews with UNTIL for application to work with them long afterwards she is very closed mouthed about this period in her life. What she described was a year long set of experiments, tests and eventually more intensive physical alterations.
In short she was dissembled, while live and conscious, only medicated so far as needed to keep her alive. At some point the leader of the medical project, who called herself Dr M, asked what Angie wanted. Angie was unpleasantly flippant and said, "If I'm wishing? I want the grace and beauty of an angel" she more calmly tried to explain that she'd be happy to walk and be healthy in general but the good doctor wasn't listening anymore and was lost in thought. If Dr M had planned to use this idea prior to asking her, she doesn't know. In either case several attempts were made to remake Angie into a mockery of a celestial.
The Red Mile
In the gaps between the tortuous procedures and rebuilds of her body the test subjects were held in prison deep below the facility. She was one among hundreds of subject. In this level Dr M's minions were heavily converted people who'd been 'gifted' in a less intensive manner than Angie. Little drips of information would slip and the enhanced senses she'd been granted let her know two things. Most of the people here felt grateful or subsumed in the process drawn into a cult like following of the doctor. She was not alone, her friend Peter was here and he was among a smaller group who were not willing to follow the doctor. Tension between the followers, the people being converted and those resisting the cult like atmosphere began to rise as the facility below reach capacity. External events were to set this potential powder keg alight.
The fact that thousands of people had been reported as missing from all over the US in the years that Dr M's facility was recruiting and operating wasn't in and of itself unusual. The fact that a few hundred of them could be traced to a medical facility near Vibora Bay came to the attention of a few heroes in the area. The fact that many of them reported back to their relatives, loved ones and friends in somewhat cryptic methods raised eyebrows. The final straw was an incident in Millennium City where a former patient who looked altogether normal but had cut all ties with family after their treatment went berserk and killed three people. What raised some alarm was how they turned into a regenerating psuedo demon. A few heroes tried to connect the dots and eventually led them to what one patient would be called "The Blender".
For Angie, her friend and other dissidents were unaware of why, but a sudden sense of urgency was palatable in the facility. Dr M had half evacuated the facility when the heroes finally arrived. In the chaos that resulted, the dissidents escaped. In the UNTIL interview Angie described it as fighting through a mile of blood. While she was unwilling to detail the events reports from authorities who investigated later filled in the gaps. The underground prison of the facility had all of the doors opened by sabotage. The bodies of dozens of people whose 'conversions' were clearly unfinished as well as the bodies of some of Dr M's soldiers showed sighs of brutal, bloody and close quarters fighting and in some cases savage postmortem attacks.
Angie and the handful of dissidents who survived escaped into the wilds outside of the facility. Most of them broke into small groups and headed out separately. The heroes who had raided Dr M's den of horrors rescued only two dozen of the people still in the upper level of the facility. The few staff and minions who didn't die to escape with their mistress were processed by the justice system and the superhuman ones were moved to Stronghold. None were able to give details on the people who were still missing or followed of their own free will. Angie and her friend Penny traveled to Vibora Bay and attmepted to fit in.
The Vibora Years
Vibora Bay became home to Angie for the next few years. She communicated with her family by phone and my email often but declined to see them on multiple occasions. Her excuse was dodging the scandal of the "Blender of Dr M" as the news put it. By her own admission she this was where a consistent drinking habit and other questionable behaviors emerged. Her erratic behavior and other personal issues caused the end of her relationship with Penny, who then moved to Millennium city. For the most part Angie kept a low profile in the superhuman world and almost never got involved in the dark and sordid matters in Vibora itself.
In her time in Vibora Bay Angie has worked at the Bayou Queen as a waitress, croupier, bartender.
Millennium City
Angie moved to Millennium City in early 2018 looking for new opportunities. Reconnecting with Penny was difficult and she found her ex-lover's friends more amenable. She spend a lot of time with remnants of the 'good guy' gang The Killjoys. While never joining the gang officially she did help with their efforts in West Side. She did volunteer work at some of the West Side clinics healing people once she'd overcome some of the misgivings of the locals. She also picked up some combat skills and crime fighting training from the Killjoys. Eventually tensions between herself and Penny made it impossible to keep working with the gang.
Due to her work at local clinics and occasional cooperation with rescue workers and other first responders in West Side she gained sponsors in her efforts to be fully recognized as a hero. Through contacts with MCPD she was directed to UNTIL for registration. The testing, analysis and interview process with UNTIL brought to light the issues wit hDr M for the first time. UNTIL's team in return connected some dots for Angie. Dr M was a disciple of Dr Phillipe Moreau. The foul mad scientist's work had produced biological terrors made in the image of magical monsters before and it was clear that Angie was one of them. Armed with the knowledge, Angie registered her heroic identity as Red Angel.
For the early past of the year Red Angel worked with UNTIL in a limited capacity as she was new and somewhat untested. Eventually they found she was best suited to supporting small to medium groups of normal troopers acting as a combat medic with her healing powers and as fire support with her offensive abilities. Her shy nature, charm and good disposition helped her integrate well with ordinary UNTIL agents. By the end of the year she is assigned almost permanently to a veteran squad of UNTIL troopers.
Outside of UNTIL work, Angie continued to visit West Side clinics to help those who needed help and had no other options. This work got the attention of a national children's crisis charity, the Faraday Foundation. For a short period she worked with the Foundation on an ad hoc basis. She was periodically called on to heal critically ill children for the foundation. This was mostly a test of how well she dealt with patients and the Foundation. The director of the Foundation, Michael Faraday; son of the founder, took a liking to her but was wary of her somewhat rowdy past and heavy drinking. But her healing abilities were so valuable and her personal charm with children and staff was so great that they took her on anyway. However the full extent of her abilities and her identity are a moderately well guarded secret. The foundation lists her as a consultant and she's paid by Mr Faraday personally and not by the Foundation.
As for independent hero work, Red Angel doesn't often operate without either UNTIL support or alongside other heroes. She occasionally works with the MCPD and Primus. Overall she finds the organizational culture of Primus most to her liking but they do not often call on her. The MCPD is probably her least favorire to work with as she views the leadership as feckless and just annoyingly unreliable but the police officers themselves quite likeable.
Powers
Power 1 - Put info on your power here. Be as lengthy as you like.
Power 2 - Not every hero HAS powers, of course, in which case the powers section can be deleted.
Power 3 - Just take everything from the HR tag above the Skills section, up to the "Powers" sub-header, and delete it. You can also edit the Main Header to take the word 'Powers' out of it as well.
Skills
Skill 1 - Skills are the things your character has learned to do, or has an innate talent at doing.
Skill 2 - These skills can be as mundane as painting, to more fantastical things such as enchanting items.
Skill 3 - If your character has no particular skills worth noting, feel free to follow the same directions as shown for the 'Powers' sub-header on how to remove this section.
Attributes
Attribute 1 - Attributes are physical or mental traits, separate from powers in most cases, though possibly enhanced by them.
Attribute 2 - Attributes can be things such as flexibility, or being naturally acrobatic, or good eye-hand coordination perhaps.
Attribute 3 - Again, like the last two, if you have no use for it, delete this section. You can also ALTER the section if there is something missing that you would find more fitting.
Gear
Weapon - Gear and equipment are the things your character carries around and uses. These can be things like weapons and armor.
Armor - Feel free to use this section to name and describe the gear that your character uses, if any. Be, again, as lengthy as you like.
Gadget - If this section does not apply to your character, feel free to delete it. Also feel free to add more sub-headers as they apply, such as for a vehicle, perhaps, and that vehicle's statistics.
Lover
This section is specifically for a spouse, lover, or some other form of paramour. Feel free to use any of the formatting from 'Friends/Allies' below.
Friends/Allies
Put any friends or allies your character may have in here. You may give them descriptions or simply list them. To make a numbered list, simply place a # at the beginning of each new line:
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
For a non-numbered list, put an asterisk instead (the lines are optional. Simply remove the HR tags if you wish to remove them):
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
Or, you could even use a smaller sub-header for each person, effectively creating a small section on them, like this:
That Guy I Know
Put info on the friend here.
That Chick I Met
And here.
Some Dude at the Bar
Don't forget this one.
Enemies
Put any rivals or enemies here. You can give descriptions, or simply list them. Same idea as the Allies and Friends.
