Relationships:
Overview: Selina is a very reserved person. She adopts a very dominant personality when at her job at the club, taking pleasure in other’s pain. But she can only do this because she knows they enjoy it. Truly, she’s very hard to make friends with. She doesn’t trust people, since the last time she did, she was sold into sexual slavery. She also feels a need to try and prove herself to others, and can be somewhat vindictive in this pursuit.
She’s also very, very claustrophobic, but this doesn’t quite manifest as a fear of small spaces. It’s just the best term she could find to describe her fear of having her freedom denied to her. She will go into a full-blown panic attack if she can’t escape any sort of situation.
Other Equipment:
- Her whips. She has a ten foot long bullwhip, usually coiled on her right hip and a cat o’ nine tails with weighted tips
- She has her own collection of bondage gear for her slightly more reputable job
- Her claws, which are made of a titanium/iridium alloy and are razor-sharp. They can even shred Kevlar. They also retract.
- She also has bolas, which she's rather fond of
History
Ever since she was born, Selina has been on her own. She was abandoned on the front steps of an orphanage as a baby, and was raised in the orphanage. The man who ran the place was a pedophile, and he exploited the young girls a great deal, until Selina had had enough. She snuck out one night, killing the owner in his sleep and fleeing into the Gotham night. She was 6 years old.
She was taken in by Mama Fortuna, the leader of a gang of street thieves. They taught her to steal and care for herself, and Selina actually looked up to Mama and the thieves. Right up until Rico, one of the thieves, sold her as a sex slave to a serial rapist when she was 16. The man kept her bound 24/7, and Selina got some escape practice, wriggling out of whatever he put her in. However, he’d always tie her right back up. After about a year and a half, she managed to fully escape, taking a few of his whips and killing him. She then tracked down Rico.
However, Rico knew she was coming. She almost walked into an ambush, but she stopped to pull a stray kitten out of a storm drain, the sniper Rico had hired barely missing. Some goons came out to fight her, but she managed to fight them off. She interrogated one to learn where Rico was hiding, and tracked him down in an old apartment building, strangling him with her whip. She found some climbing claws and stole them, seeing as how a very dead Rico would no longer have use for them.
She was 18 now, alone, and penniless. She found work as a dominatrix at a local bondage club, but that wasn’t quite working for her. So she put her skills to use and became a cat burglar. She took inspiration from the kitten that saved her from Rico’s men, and used one of her catsuits from the club, adapting it to serve as a suit for burgling. She became a near legend within the city, supposedly able to walk through walls. As a slight flourish for funsies, she began leaving cat-shaped “calling cards”, mocking her victims for losing to her.
