accent.  Her powers emerged after a traumatic accident while skin-diving offshore in the Gulf as a teenager-- an undersea explosion of unknown origin left her deafened, comatose, and half-drowned.  Her recovery brought her family and town a flash of public attention, with tv shows and newspapers reporting her survival as a "miracle".  The media attention and monetary support conincided with her abusive father's "born-again" conversion to faith, and within a year he became a highly-recognized pastor at a mega-church in St. Petersburg... he now has a radio show, a weekly special, and a network of evangelistic 'projects' that happen to afford him an eight-figure house.  Katie still won't speak to him or accept his money because she doesn't truly believe his self-proclaimed salvation is any more than a ploy for fortune and a cover for his perverted alter-ego... but by the time she was sixteen she was fully aware that she was very, very different from everyone else.<br/><br/>After her recovery, she returned to her high-school a half-year behind her class.  Normally a C-D student, she suddenly seemed to possess an internal drive to succeed, and while her grades were not stellar, her dedication helped her graduate on time (she suddenly found it easier to finish her reading assignments, complete projects... she was no genius, but her homework took her half the time it took her friends...)  She discovered her 'bursts' of speed by accident by quietly experimenting on her own.  Now, Katie's a full-time college student, living on her Pell Grant and meager academic scholarship in a dorm room.  The best part: free food, board, and use of the gym.  The worst?  Her roommate seems to think she's party-hard white trash thanks to her alternate-identity.  She's studying history, seeming to believe that there's some kind of trend to be identified in understanding the past to pinpoint why things in society have gone to shit, why superheroes and villains are emerging, and how to alter the world she knows.
