Hawk

Helen “Hawk” McCarter had always pressed boundaries. As a test pilot, she was known to fly higher further and faster than any of her peers. It’s no surprise that when her country needed someone to test out a new kind of spacecraft, Helen’s hand was the first one in the air.

Helen was supposed to be the first human to navigate via wormhole.

Prepping for this mission she met Sage, a young biologist tasked with creating the ship’s replenishing air supply. Sage’s overly cautious personality frustrated Helen, so much so that the two were seen arguing just minutes before launch.

The rocket performed amazingly. However as Helen’s ship prepared to generate a wormhole, the unexpected occurred. The ship was bombarded by an unknown energy and thrown off course. Helen felt herself travelling light years in a single instant, being ripped apart and put together all at the same time. In this instant, Helen’s only thought was of flying. She just wished she could fly one last time.

Months later a woman with flaming wings was spotted falling from the sky and crashing off the coast of Seawave City. Identified as Helen McCarter, the woman was rushed to the ICU of Mr. Fists Memorial Hospital. Helen would have died had it not been for the intervention of a young super, The Silver Sage. As Helen recuperated she and Sage went from bitter rivals to best friends. While healing Helen discovered that her new wings allowed her to fly with speed and grace. Helen decided to use these abilities to help others as the hero Hawk.
