I expected different. Funny coincidence.
Originally from Chicago, Illinois, Hau Zhu came to Heldencoast City to become a full-fledged hero. But after accidentally derailing an entire train with one of her punches, she was categorized as a Threat Level D villain. After The Daily Slice used that as a big new headline for weeks on end, every chance she had at redemption got nipped in the bud right from the beginning.
Before she could leave Heldencoast City again to return to her hometown, some of the villains approached and welcomed her, finally convincing her to stay, fighting on their side, instead of against them now.
