Bio: Jack was born lucky, the youngest child of one of Metropolis’ most wealthy families. Her mother was a popular talk show host, her father was a senator, and her brother was at the top of his class in medical school. Jack didn’t feel so lucky, though, because her parents wanted her to be as successful as the rest of her family. There was a lot of pressure on her, both from her parents and the constant eyes of the public on her.

In high school, Jack realized that she would never live up to her parents’ expectations of her. She was only average in school, she had no interest in sports, and she hated performing. She always loved animals, though, but she wasn’t good enough at science to be a veterinarian. She eventually stopped caring about trying to be successful and fell in with a strange group of friends.

They were the kind of people who wore a lot of black, had dyed hair, and hung around smoking in convenience store parking lots. Jack’s parents absolutely didn’t approve, but Jack didn’t care, and they were actually cool people. She eventually gained a reputation in the tabloids as a wild party girl who spent her nights binge drinking and destroying her life.

The rumors only got worse when Jack dropped out of school before her senior year. While the magazines postulated that she had gotten pregnant, in reality, school was causing her enough stress to send her spiraling towards a nervous breakdown. She was saved from the full wrath of her parents by the fact that she moved out of their house and into an apartment with her friend, Robin, who had graduated the year before.

Without the stress of school, her parents, and life in general, things changed for Jack, in a weird way. The end of the constant anxiety left her in a deep depression. She spent all the time she wasn’t at her job in her bed. Then, Robin said a few words that would change her life forever:

“You should get a pet.”

Her parents had never allowed her to have much contact with animals before; pets were completely out of the question, so the benefit of adopting a pet hadn’t occurred to her before. By a stroke of luck, the complex she and Robin lived in allowed cats and small dogs, and Jack’s income could support a cat. She took a trip to the local shelter, and was immediately drawn to a certain cat. She was a small grey tabby who had spent her entire life in the shelter. It was love at first sight and Jack took the cat home that day, naming her Killer Queen. Things instantly started looking up, as having a cat to take care of made her start feeling better. She spent a lot of time with Killer Queen, telling the cat all of her feelings and secrets.

Things were normal, until Killer Queen started talking back.

Well, not talking, exactly. It was more like Jack could hear the cat’s thoughts in her head, and the cat clearly understood her. A million questions entered her mind. How long had she had this ability? How could she have had no idea?

She found that she could talk to any animal she met. She would talk to dogs on the street, pigeons that sat on her windowsill, raccoons digging around in her trash, et cetera. The thought occurred to her that she could do something really good with her power. She just isn’t sure what, yet. Whatever she ends up doing, she knows that Killer Queen will be there with her.
