Real Name:  Karen Hogan

Background:
  Karen is British she lives in an apartment in a suburb outside of London.  Her parents live in the upper region of England.  Her brother lives in America and her sister lives in Ireland.  At an early age Karen was found to have a talent for singing.  In her teenage years  when she would perform she started to call herself Black Angel.  Also later on when others joined her she named the group DARK ANGELS.  She started to perform at church functions and then she started to perform in pubs and in small clubs.  But she was only getting gigs in England so far she wanted to spread her wings more and go to other countries and perform.
   Then in her early to mid 20's she finally got a gig in the middle east.  She was a bit hesitate at first but she always wanted to go somewhere else and perform so she and her band went to the middle east.  Her agent stayed behind in England....at the time she didn't think about it.
    They were booked at a pretty nice hotel and the small club that they were going to perform at was close by.  She invited some friends of hers to come with the group...what a mistake that was.  The group started to play and they were very good the audience appeared to be enjoying themselves.  A short time later thats when the whole nightmare began.....Terrorists came into the club and they killed several people.  Before they got away they took several hostages with them which included all of Karen's friends and a couple of her band members.  The terrorists got clean away with their hostages.
  When they got to their hideout they put all the hostages into a room.  They were left there for about four hours and then they started taking them out of the room one at a time but nobody ever came back into the room.  Then after awhile Karen was all alone in the room and she was a bit scared..who wouldn't???  Then they  came for her....They took her into another room where there was a operating table in the center of the room...and yep she freaked out at this point.  "What are you going to do to me?  Where are my friends?"  She was held tightly and put onto the table and secured.  Then the "doctor"  Came over to her and said,  "The others and your friends are DEAD!  They did not survive the serum.   I highly dought if you will too being a female."  Karen was doing some major praying at the moment and even more than she ever did her whole life when she saw the "doctor" coming back her way holding a syringe.  She started to beg for her life but the "doctor"  only smiled and plunged the needle into her arm.   Karen screamed and then she felt like she was burning up...she convulsed for about five minutes and then she laid very still.    The "doctor" came over to her and he checked to see if she was dead like the others.  "Hmmmmnn typical female....weaker sex....EEAAGRRHGHGH!!!!"   Karen had the "doctor" by the throat with her hand that somehow got free???  "I've had just about enough of you saying that."  With that she tossed the "doctor"  across the room and through the wall.  She broke her remaining bounds and was just getting off the table when some guards came into the room.  She was on them in seconds they didn't even have time to raise there weapons at her.

After she took out the guards she then started to leave the room.  She looked around to make sure that no one was around.    She then tried to find her way out.  She opened a door and was shocked by what she found inside.  Inside this room was all the bodies of the failed experiments..including her friends.  Needless to say that she blew her top.  The first person that she encountered after that well lets just say he had to unbutton his shirt in under to eat...that is if he was still alive.   But then she did find someone that was able to tell her the way out but she still felt like getting vengeance...so she decided to find who was in charge but who ever it was had another thing in mind and sent everyone he/she had in the base to stop whoever this was that was trashing his base.   When the first group came upon her she was just turning a corner and almost bumped into them.  "What is this a female?????"  One of them said and Karen she was already pissed off and she grabbed the guy and picked him up.  He was almost touching the ceiling as she said..."You know I have had enough of you people saying that to me!"  With that she tossed the guy into his companions and she was able to get by the remaining others.  Then she took a wrong turn and ended up inside their armory.  "Great just great.  I had to take a wrong turn back there."  She was just about to turn around and head back when more troops came at her.  "There is the female!!!  Open fire!!!"  Just as the volley from some of them came her way one of the smarter ones said,  "No!!!! Hold your fire the armory!!!"   She did get hit by some of the bullets but all they did to her was tickle her and rip her clothes.  The others hit some of the munitions and they started to go off.....everyone tried to run away but it did little good the armory blew up throwing Karen and the troops down the corridor.  When she recovered she looked behind her and saw sunlight....the explosion must have blown opened the wall to the outside.  Then she felt a draft and looked down before she went out she'd have to get a shirt on.  She grabbed the shirt off one of the soldiers that was only unconscious and then she headed outside.

   After she got outside she tried to get her bearings she noticed a few flags nearby she must have been held near a embassy area?  She went towards the British embassy and asked to be let in....after 10 minutes of talking and trying to convinince them that she was who she was.  She then was debriefed.  She did voice that whoever was leading this group was still very much out there...and she wanted to pay them back for what they did to her and the others.

  Shortly after she got back home she was contacted by the UOD ( Unusual Operations Division ).  She went in to see them and she started her training.  She excelled at marksmanship with a pistol.  She also did very well on disquiseing herself.  They were also amazed by her strength as  well as her endurance and resilience.

   She was performing a concert in London and shortly after it ended she got a call from her boss at UOD.  She was needed ASAP.  She took off and did the mission but she did it as she was right now.....her cover was blown.  But she did complete the mission but she was sacked by the UOD.
