Rally Cry 4: Meet Bombshell

Bombshell

Name: Annette Williams

Identity: Secret

Origin: Mutation

Personality: Normally witty and flirtatious she can be quick to anger if someone questions her abilities.  Thus far her temper has yet to lead to anything she cannot get out of but she worries that it’s only a matter of time before something gets out of hand.

Description: Annette is a beautiful young woman with flowing red hair and a temper to match.  As Bombshell, Annette wears an updated version of her mother’s costume.  Thigh-high boots, long theater style gloves and a leather vest cover a blue-gray cat suit.  Annette knows her sultry looks can be another weapon in her arsenal and has used them to her benefit more than once.

About Bombshell: Annette Williams is the youngest daughter of Jean Williams.  The elder Williams spent the majority of her adult life adventuring as a member of Freedom 5 as the Blonde Bombshell until she was forced to retire due to injuries sustained in the line of duty.  As Bombshell, Jean was one of the most popular and decorated members of extraordinary society, having received countless awards and commendations from several different countries across the globe.

When Jean was forced to retire the Bombshell legacy was taken up by Michelle, her oldest daughter.  Michelle was never comfortable as a super-human adventurer and preferred to stay back and coordinate her teammate’s actions from relative safety. For years she acted as part of Freedom 5 in this manner until the appearance of Carnal and his drone army.  The mantle of Bombshell was passed down to Annette after her older sister was killed in a running battle with drones in the ruins of New York City.

Annette has taken on the guise of Bombshell with a particular intensity.  For years she dreamed of walking in her mother’s shoes and now it is Annette’s time to shine.  She has been in training herself for the job as Bombshell since she was in her early teens and has already made a name for herself although she has only been active for about a year.  She was a bit put off that she was not immediately offered her sisters position in Freedom 5, but understands that with the threat that Carnal possess the team can only accept the most powerful and experienced extraordinaries into its illustrious roster.

For the time being Annette is happy to act as an independent operative in the New York area, although she was recently contacted by Tempest Technologies as a possible member for the new Fireforce team.  She knows that acting alone is dangerous, especially in someplace like New York, but is hesitant to join a team that she hasn’t worked with already.

Unlike her mother and sister, who gained their abilities through technological means, Annette was born with super-human powers.  Her powers are eerily similar to those used by her mother and it is believed that the equipment Jean used somehow caused the mutation in her youngest daughter.
