BRIEF Bio - Katie's life was pretty average despite not having a father around. Her mother, older sister, twin sister, and she were always there to help each other. Katie became more of a tomboy in a way to help protect her sisters and mother. When the Reach came to earth she was the only one in her family that was skeptical. That is just her personality though. She is skeptical of everything she doesn't know or understand. However, she did drink the energy drink released by them. One day though she was grabbed by armed men and gathered into a group with many other people. That's when the Reach showed up, taking all the abductees, and began experimenting on them. They exposed Katie to various levels of energy, especially nuclear. Eventually a team of heroes showed up saving the abductees.

Weeks later during a checkup Captain Atom came to check on the progress of the abductees. When he got near to where Katie was she began reacting to some form of stimuli. The doctors quickly moved her to an examination room and Captain Atom followed. She started thrashing around in pain and Captain Atom moved to restrain her, but upon contact the energy in Atom was seemingly sapped from his body. He then collapsed and Katie nearly instantaneously calmed down. Everyone around realized that like a few of the other abductees Katie was developing abilities. For the next few weeks Katie was only allowed to use her ability inside a lab.

When the idea of Young Justice was brought up Captain instantly thought of Katie. At first the rest of the League was unsure if someone so inexperienced with their powers would be a right fit, but Captain Atom assured them that the best way for her to became experienced and for them to keep a close eye on her is if she was a part of the team.
