Subject is currently 5 ft. 3, with brown eyes and short white hair. Noticeably pale with a slight build in this form. When having access to her abilities, Subject stands over six feet tall and is visibly more muscular and athletic, her eyes turning bright yellow while she grows sharper teeth and claws on her hands. Fully transformed, it is believed Subject stands as tall as nine feet, fully resembling a heavily muscled wolf-like being with white fur.

Psyche Profile: While it was initially believed that Subject was a mild-mannered individual suffering from a feral alternate self, follow-up examinations have shown this to be untrue. Rather, Subject is believed to be in full control of her mental faculties, her split personality merely a front to avoid legal consequences before now.

Underneath the facade largely believed to have been created to help avoid legal repercussions for her actions, subject has proven to be highly intelligent, egotistical, and possessing a great talent for manipulating events to her advantage. Analysis also suggests that despite the feral nature of her powers and an utterly ruthless streak, Subject possesses an enormous amount of self-control and restraint. Indeed, while Subject has no record of violence or behavioral trouble at the Asylum, it seems other inmates already see harassing the Subject as a taboo owing to certain 'accidents'.

That being said, it is known that Subject can become temperamental when faced with a slight or potential failure, hyper focusing on revenge against those she considers enemies and even flying into a rage in extreme situations. No such incidents have been definitively shown to occur, though investigation of the aforementioned 'accidents' is ongoing.

Background: Marina Montressor was born in Sicily to a family of once-wealthy vintners that had fallen into destitution. Abandoning her family at a young age for unknown reasons, she traveled north to live with a distant relative where she first attended school, showing brilliance from a young age all the way to her Graduation from university, where she received top marks and commendations in several scientific fields. Orchestrating a hostile takeover of a business venture launched by her estranged parents, assumed to be an act of revenge judging by some of her statements, Montressor rebranded the venture as the bio-technical firm LunarTech, which she helped rapidly grow into a powerful corporate entity that held sway over much of Southern Europe, so much so that the German corporate juggernaut Sonnenlicht even approached the young company with a deal to share dominance over the entire European market, and much of the continent itself in turn.

There was of course one obstacle to that; Sonnenlicht had once attempted to buy out the company when it was still a small tech firm, and Montressor was far from forgiving them for that slight. And so, what could have been a fruitful partnership turned into a bitter feud that threw both companies into chaos, and while her underlings bemoaned her destructive actions against the German tech giant, Montressor was preparing her secret weapon against her hated enemy.

Sonnenlicht was a lot of things, but it was first and foremost a military tech company, supplying advanced arms and weapons to much of the armed forces around the world. Using her own extensive chemical knowledge, Montressor began a project to help break into that market and dethrone her hated rivals, a chemical combat stimulant code-named WARWICK. Pouring millions of dollars and far too much time into the project, WARWICK was the straw that broke the camel's back, and the LunarTech board of directors suspended all of Montressor's projects and began the process to remove her from company leadership. When her long-time partner and friend arrived at her office to smugly inform her of the news, she coolly responded by throwing the man out of the top floor window, followed by her own desk, and proceeded to go on a rampage through the corporate offices, revealing who she had been testing the WARWICK compound on; herself. When the police were called and manage to corner Montressor in her own laboratory, out of a manic desire to ensure her hated enemy would never get her hands on her greatest creation, she dosed herself with the entire stock of WARWICK she had left, completing her transformation into the supervillain Argent.

Amazingly, even after the rampage, Montressor's legal team managed to keep her out of jail by "proving" the attacker was a test subject that had gotten out of control, leaving her as the head of the company with all her rivals conveniently "out of the way". This status quo continued even as mounting attacks on other companies, including of course Sonnenlicht, and even superheroes getting in the way of LunarTech's ambitions, were excused by her army of lawyers as mere accidents or the machinations of a murderous alternate personality. Said excuses ran dry though, and after a very public instance of Marina Montressor's transformation into Argent, she was finally dethroned and sent to Thornwood Asylum for what would hopefully be a very, very long time.

Skills, Talents and Learning: Genius level intellect, fluent in multiple languages and possessing considerable scientific and technical knowledge. Capable hand to hand fighter. Highly charismatic, skilled at social manipulation. In addition, while her company has been dismantled, it's believed that she is still quite wealthy with a personal net worth in the millions.

Power(s) and Capabilities: Due to extensive use of the WARWICK compound, subject possesses the ability to transform at will, partly or fully, into a creature resembling a werewolf. At base level, subject possesses superhuman strength, agility, and durability, as well as heightened senses, sharpened claws and a powerful bite as weapons, and the ability to quickly heal from debilitating injuries. Subject's strength and size increases dramatically as the transformation into full werewolf form progresses; subject in full werewolf form has been known to lift and throw heavy vehicles and tear through reinforced metal with her claws and teeth.

Power Limits: While easily able to tank attacks that would be lethal to standard humans, sustained damage can overwhelm her defenses and healing factor to take her out of a fight. In addition, progressing towards her full transformation sacrifices her agility and speed for increased strength and size, still at an above average level but more able to be exploited by a nimble opponent.

Known Vulnerabilities: The effects of the WARWICK compound can be hindered by a specially made antidote and suppressed entirely by a constant dosage. In addition, heightened emotional states can cause subject to transform involuntarily, and when fully transformed, the subject risks descending into a rage state, becoming fully feral and losing control of her mental faculties, rendering her dangerous but easy to trap and contain.

Motives: Somewhat unclear. Subject expressed a desire to regain the power and success she once held, but it's uncertain how she will manage that, considering the dismantling of her company and public image.

Recommended Containment Procedures: Subject is to be fitted with a medical apparatus constantly providing the antidote to the WARWICK compound, until such a time when a complete cure for her condition is found. Device is to be refilled and inspected three times a day, and any attempt to damage or tamper with the device is to be severely punished. Otherwise, subject can be contained like any other baseline human.

Notes:Anything else to throw in.
