Complications: Quirk ~Likes a Challenge: Sonya will always challenge the most powerful looking opponent she can find to prove that she is the better fighter.
Responsibility ~Parole: Sonya has to follow the terms of her parole or go back to prison.
Secret ~Harbinger’s Plan: Sonya is the only member of Project: Freedom that is aware of the amount of control that fellow parolee Harbringer (Dennis Carter) has and works with him to gain her own freedom from the project.
Background: Sonya Gertz has never shared anything about her early years with anyone. The only thing that is known is from when her finger prints were ran they brought up an imigration file that said Soyna came to America from the former Soviet Union along with her mother and both were granted citizenship. Sonya will not say anything about where she grew up after coming to America, what (if anything) has happened with her mother or why she turned to crime.
Sonya simply made her criminal debute several years ago in New York, calling herself Red Phoenix, and ended up fighting members of the Sentinels, specifically Blackheart, who quickly dealt her a defeat (though she managed to slip away before the police couild arrive on the scene and take her into custody). From then on Red Phoenix simply sold her powers and skills to the highest bidder and made sure to be gone from any kind of law enforcement agency could respond. It wasn't until she faced Doctor Metropolis that Red Phoenix couldn't manage to escape before the S.T.A.R. Squad arrived on the scene and took her into custody that she was made to be held accountable for her crimes, which was basically destruction of property and various assault charges. But it was enough to make sure she'd be in jail for a long, long time.
Somehow her file ended up on the desks of those running Project: Freedom and it was decided that Red Phoenix could make a positive contribution to society with her powers and she liked the idea of working her remaining time off in a way that let her have more personal freedom than she'd had in the past few years as an inmate at Blackstone. Though Sonya was very surprised when she found out just how long she'd have to be a part of the Project to earn her release and had been looking at her options in planning an escape and leaving the country. It was then that she stumbled onto Harbinger's ongoing plan to use his powers to manipulate the people in control of Project: Freedom, as well as the other parolees, to gain his own release much earlier than he should have.
Sonya threatened to expose his actions and it was only Harbinger's silver tongue and subtle mental manipulations that allowed him to convince her to play along and be his 'straight-person' and help him pull off his plan and as payment he would use his influence to get her out in a manner similar to his. Sonya, desperate to get out of the Project, bought his lies hook, line and sinker and has been subtly helping Harbinger keep tabs on the other parolees and staff of the Project to make sure his influencing of them hasn't been noticed. But what she hasn't realized yet is that Harbinger is only stringing her along, why would he help her get out of the Project once he's left it? What leverage would she have over him then?
Those thoughts haven't occured to her yet.
May a higher power help Harbinger if they do.
