Lady Arianiera Du Brotholet. At age 14, she was taken by the enigmatic Scourge when they stuck the Sirius System, on the extreme edge of Imperium space. At age 16, she was found aboard a crippled Scourge ship captured by Imperial Marines. Unspeakable experiments had been done to her including her entire skeleton being replaced with a extremely hard bio-metal, claws of the same unknown metal on each hand. Due to the Scourge being far more advanced in Biotech, there wasn't a single scar on the teenager's body, but her mind was shattered. At age 18, she was sent to the Unseelie Court at the Dark Queen's request. Imperial mental techs had made little progress on healing her badly damaged mind. Since she had Unseelie blood far back in her family tree, they requested that they be allowed to heal one of their own. At age 20, she entered the Imperial Academy, after the Unseelie Sidhe had healed her as much as they could. Her mind was restored to her, but they could do nothing about the festering hatred for the alien Scourge that burned in her soul. Since they couldn't cure her of it, the Imperium decided to use it, turning her, and several other Shadow Hound teams, loose in the shattered remains of the Sirius III colony, the only contact point with the Scourge. Six years after the initial attack, fighting still raged on the planet. EDIT: I should mention that her experiences turned her hair white. The red streaks she put in her white hair are in it's original colour, yet another way to remember what they did to her. :) Son of EDIT: I should also mention, though it's likely rather obvious, that Lynx is a homage to my favourite X-man, Logan aka Wolverine.
