UNKNOWN

Hi. I'm Marissa Sanlier. Up until a year ago, I was a twenty-year-old girl living the dream in Phillie.

Then, my cousin was kidnapped and I learned the hard way what I really was. An alien bred, physically enhanced assassin dedicated to stopping the "Shadow Government" from taking over the world! Yeah, that's a real mind-binder right there, right?

I'm one of a whole ancestry of assassins tracing back tens of thousands of years, dedicated to seeing that innocents remain free, and ensuring the plots of secret societies hidden in the shadows never come to pass. Secret societies that always existed, clouded in conspiracy theories, but whose history dates back to the birth of mankind!

Now, after being sent to various places by my Aunt Pella to remove those she told me were necessary, I'm poised to jump out of a plane into Columbia. Another mission to somehow hold back the flood of those in the shadows who see only power, enslavement, and strife in our future.

Why? It's my job. It's why I was made. Because I am...

The Hawk!
