Introduction
Isabella Teruna, was born with her powers, they did not mature til she was 14. Once she found out about her powers she tried to conceal them, unfortunatley her thorns started to come out of all areas of her body and at the time she was unable to control it. So her parents sent her somewhere to teach her how to use them. She was walking home from a game with her sister and heard something in the alley, and it was a woman about to be raped so she used her controlled powers to save her, this ignited a jelousy within her sister. Her sister (Lilita), later on started to resent her and do evil things then she ran away, it was said that she may have joined Arachnos. So while in search for her she joined Longbow and they set her up for a project to metallisize her bones so that she would be stronger. Within this she found out that they did not want her to continure searching for her sister, so she ran away from them to continue th search.
Early Life
Isabella was a young promising child. She was very beautiful and very smart, envied by a lot of her peers (mainly other females). This jealousy of her peers made her the center of negative attention. They started to ridecule her and make fun of her intellegence. One day in the middle of class she felt her skin starting to itch, then out of nowhere a thorn pops out, then more kept coming out of different areas. After freaking out her whole class she left school to go to a camp where they could teach her how to control her powers.
Returning
After two years at the camp Isabella was ready to return to school. Even after being there she progressed even further to the point where she actually graduated High School and the age of 16. Then going onto college and in her first year she took a total of 70 credit hours and then going further to finish here Criminal Justice degree in the next year at the age of 18. Then going on to graduate from law school that next year at the age of 19.
Hate
Even with all the success there will always be those that hate you for your greatness. Many people did not like the fact that they were being out classed by a mutant. Mainly Lilita, she hated her more than anything. The two used to be close until Isabella started surpassing her and using her powers to help others. So she started to commit random crimes and acts of violence, and Isabella would always be there to get her out of trouble. Until one day she did something that Isabella could not get her out of and it caused her to go to the Zig. She heard of Lilita's breakout and that there maybe rumors going around that she pledged to Arachnos, but she wants to find her and help her.
Mission
Her mission/goal in life was to bring Lilita back to her. She went down many avenues to try to find ways on bringing her back.
The Arts
She knew with what she had she could not bring her back, so she went to study mystic arts from a well known teacher. She first learned the basics of hand to hand combat, applying them to the powers that she has, she now has a good combat knowledge on how to use her Thorns as weapon. She was then trained on the art of being stealthy and using the tools of the arts to mitigate oncoming attacks. Finally she was taught how to use nature around her. She speciallized in using the heat in nature, she uses this heat to take less damage from oncoming attacks, heal her wounds, and attack her foes.
The Project
Feeling that learning the arts was not enough, she joined Longbow to recieve special training. Considering her powers, longbow doctors wanted to experiment with her by metallisizing her bones so that the thorns and bones that come out are metal. She agreed to the project thinking that it would make her a better weapon to find Lilita. However, she found out that she was going to be just a tool for Longbow, so midway through the procedure she uses what she could to break free and run away. Due to the incomplete experiment she now can use regular and metal bone/thorns, however, it takes much more control to keep in check.
New life
After leaving longbow, she still wanted to fight crime and find her sister. As a natural soloist, meaning she likes to do a lot of things on her own, she has a hard time finding people in life that she can trust. She really likes to keep her 'Super' life different from her regular life, thus most people only know her as Isabella the lawyer and think that her and Hott Enough are two different people. Though she has met quite a few interesting people in the Pocket Dimension, she still has not found anyone she can fully trust. Of the people she has met only a few stick out in her life. Grey Harlequin is a very important friend, when they meet up they usually talk for hours on end about nothing and she usually watches Harle eat 20 hot dogs. Miss Millennium is one of the few people who can help Isabella loosen up after a hard day of work. Also she finds Jack LeBeuregard to be a perfect gentleman and the first man to ever treat her right. Stara Rose is someone she feels she can come to about any problem in the world, she looks up to her as an old sister/mother type figure, but when they argue she is the evil stepmother/stepsister.
Trivia
- Longbow wanted to give her the name porcupine, however, she didn't think it was 'Hot Enough'
