Background

  • September 25, 1993: Victoria Callaghan is born to Patricia Callaghan, the owner of a small bookstore that moonlights as a skilled cat-burglar. Though Victoria's father passed away during her pregnancy, Patricia is more than capable of providing for their daughter through money gained through her 'extracurricular activities'.
  • September 25, 1998: At the age of five, Patricia starts to teach her daughter tips and tricks for being a successful crook, after Victoria catches her coming home after a caper. The young girl has an aptitude for sleight of hand and moving around quietly, as well as excellent hand-eye coordination and a sharp mind.
  • May 13, 2004: At eleven years old, Victoria helps her mother in completing their first joint heist. The operation mostly goes off without a hitch, and Victoria keeps a souvenir - a large, fist-sized ruby - to this day. With the test run completed and the girl passing with flying colors, Patricia continues to bring her daughter along on robberies. The two bond closely over the exhilarating experiences.
  • November, 2010: Seventeen year old Victoria pulls off her first solo operation, the only help provided by her mother being a few gadgets and 'Jackie', the crossbow Victoria wields to this day. She also begins a work relationship with her classmate Renata De Luca, who eventually starts to work alongside her as a getaway driver.
  • February 3, 2011: Patricia finally slips up and is caught in the middle of a robbery. She receives a hefty prison sentence, leaving Victoria without a parental guardian. Victoria files for and receives legal emancipation, allowing her to conduct business as an adult. She rents out an apartment with Renata and, at her mother's behest, gives up the criminal business.
  • October 14, 2012: Months after graduating, Victoria decides that she just can't stand living the normal life of civilian. She creates an outfit for herself and takes to the streets of Millennium City for the first time as the vigilante Quarrel, using her experiences as a criminal and the training provided by her mother to help fight against street crime.
  • March 7, 2013: Quarrel joins the youth superteam New Vigil.


Grace Memorial High School

Victoria is a graduate from Grace Memorial High School, where she played on the softball team and participated in the drama club. She mostly hung around with members of the softball team, and wasn't super incredibly popular, though she wasn't exactly an unknown face either. She never informed any of her classmates of her or her mother's criminal careers, for fear of being reported to the police if someone found out. She occasionally keeps in contact with some of her high school friends, but for the most part chooses to spend her free time operating as Quarrel or hanging around the apartment with Renata.

Appearance And Personality

Victoria Callaghan doesn't cut a very impressive figure. Standing at about 5'3" and with a fairly small frame, most people that she encounters practically dwarfs her, especially in a career where most men (and some women) tend to stand almost an entire foot taller than her. She's quite a bit on the pale side, as well, and has dark blue eyes and long brown hair that she tends to wear long, reaching down to the middle of her back when she doesn't pull it up into a ponytail. Despite her size, though, she's rather physically fit, due to a lifetime of exercise (you have to be in good shape to run away from the police, after all!). Victoria favors snug, but not tight, clothing when she's out and about in her civilian identity.

Personality-wise, the best word to describe Victoria is 'blunt'. She's hardly afraid to call something like she sees it, which can often make her come across as a bit cold and mean. She prefers to cut to the heart of things rather than beating around the bush. That isn't to say she dislikes most people though - in matter of fact, the more she likes someone, the more likely she is to tell it like it is, as she doesn't want there to be any questions about how she feels about something. She also likes to banter, frequently tossing about insults casually with the hope that they'll get returned. She rarely actually means what she's saying when she does this, and makes it quite clear when she does.

Allies And Enemies

New Vigil

Quarrel has only recently joined the team of up-and-coming superheroes. Though she is lacking in the superpowers that most of the others can fall back on when the going gets rough, Quarrel knows that her experience and many years of training should at least let her keep up the pace with them. The main problem is going to be in learning to trust them.

Skills And Equipment

While she lacks in superhuman powers, Quarrel has a breadth of experience, skills, and equipment that helps make up for it.

  • 'Jackie': Quarrel's crossbow. The weapon was custom ordered by her mother out of the finest materials, designed specifically to be collapsed for quick and easy transport. It measures in at just short of three-and-a-half feet, but can be 'broken down' to a much smaller size when it isn't needed. It has also been fitted with a quick feed system, designed to hold 'magazines' that Quarrel carries on her person, to eliminate the need for constantly reaching for a bolt from her quiver.

Trivia

  • Quarrel owns a pet Siberian Husky named Snowbear. He's been with her since he was a puppy, and the two are almost inseparable. She has, on occasion, taken the animal out with her on patrol.

Comments

Comments from Quarrel's superhero peers go here!

"We are still unsure about...Quarrel. She does not seem to...show us any respect, or even...acknowledge us half of the...time. However, we harbor a great...deal of respect for the woman, as...she is but a girl among gods, in a...sense, yet she refuses to yield. It takes...a lot of courage to overcome...such odds." / "I don't know about Quarrel...I mean, she kind of talks down to me a bunch, or at least it seems that way. Also, I don't understand why she is so mean to me about being self conscious..." -Galactigal/Samantha, respectively

"She's kinda, uhm, like really super blunt. I suppose it's a good thing but WOW at times brutal. Maybe I can takes some tips on being more no-nonsense from her at least." - Lash

"Quarrel is... very serious and skilled. She can be kind, when she wants to be, but quite harsh when someone annoys her. Which um, seems to be often... Still, I'm glad she decided to trust me and that she's able to help the team when we need her expertise." - Mercy

"Quarrel is a born leader. I think I can already tell that? I don't know! She's really good on pressure. I went on a mission with her and she rocked!" - Heartbeat
