South Africa had gone through many changes the past century. Through strife, conquest, faulty policies, and then finally through peace and a dream of a man, it had began turning itself into a civilized, industrial nation built on the ideals that man, regardless of his color, could work together.

Sadly, Angelica was born looking nothing like what most would call 'man'. Her mother tried her best to eek out an existence within the country, however her daughter's animalistic mutation caused not only the other children to avoid her but also their parents. Finding less and less opportunity in the cities, her mother found herself traveling further and further into the wilds.

It was during these travels that Angelica's mother passed on. Angelica was left to her own devices, living her life as she had done. Only this time, without a mother to read to her at night and tuck her in. She went about the routine she learned from her mother.

And for several years, she lived alone. She hunted, first, like her mother had but then soon found using her own natural 'talents' were far quicker. She made sure to sweep her dwelling clean of any dust during the morning and night. She would take time to look through the few picture books her mom had brought with them to entertain Angelica. She was surviving. And she was also lonely.

When Angelica was eight years old, she was discovered by missionaries. Or perhaps one could say, she found them. A pair of Americans crashed their jeep on the way back from a town only to beset by the dangers of the jungle. They were fortune for Angelica to be there to protect them. While clearly off put by the creature's visage, it didn't take long for them to see humanity behind those eyes. And a cleverness. And the cuteness that comes with a child of any species!

Angelica eventually followed them back to the church they belonged too. And, thanks to a gaggle of very stubborn nuns, has grown to become an educated girl. While still a touch on the wild side (You can take the girl out of the jungle but...), she's as well mannered as any Catholic school girl. And with the facilities of a developed country, has been able to learn about the wonders of Asia, Europe, and the Americas.

Upon becoming what the nuns feel to be a very 'unique' young lady, Angelica has been given an opportunity to become a foreign exchange student to Paragon City. While still working with some of the language barriers as all foreign exchange students do, she's excited, dedicated, and has shown she has the intelligence to earn the scholarship that made this exchange possible.
