BioBorn January 23, 1950, and raised in Mission City, Minnesota, I moved to California after graduating from Western Tech.
I worked several odd jobs before meeting Department of External Services (DXS) agent Pete Thornton. Thornton was impressed with my ingenuity - after all, I'd used a paper clip, a wrench, and shoelaces to help us escape from two men armed with bazookas.
I then went to work at the DXS for Pete. Over the years, our friendship became so strong that I moved to the Phoenix Foundation when Pete was appointed Director of Operations. I am a master of on-the-spot improvisation. I can use ordinary household objects to get myself and my companions out of trouble. All I carry with me is a Swiss Army knife and, occasionally, a roll of duct tape. I carry no gun, having forsaken firearms after a traumatic childhood incident, and try to avoid violence. I am fiercely loyal to my friends; my enemies will find me a clever, resourceful, and uncooperative opponent. my most unusual trait is my fear of romantic commitment. This fear, which has stifled many a relationship, stems from my previous experiences. My father and grandmother were killed in a car accident when I was twelve years old; my mother died of complications from a stroke when I was on assignment overseas. I worry that whomever I become close to will die, just like my parents and grandmother did. Despite my misgivings about commitment, I remain the eternal optimist. I firmly believe that the world can and will change for the better - one person at a time.
