Name: Catarina Agnes Carino
Nickname: C.C., Cat
Age: Twenty-Six
Member Group: Local
Power(s): Super-Strength/Durability
(Cat is many times stronger and more resistant to injury than vanilla humans, but it comes at the cost of constant low-level joint and muscle pain that flares up whenever she uses her greater than normal strength, as well as the potential to underestimate her strength, though that risk was lessened after her time at Hammel)

I got baptized yesterday. I made my oath to Jesus and they put my head under the water. Mommy and Daddy were so proud. Daddy said now I'm a full member of the church. All our family was there, except for Uncle Robby. Daddy said Uncle Robby wasn't coming to the temple any more because he had been acting bad. He said Uncle Robby was kissing another man, and that God didn't like that. I asked when I could see him again and Daddy said I wouldn't because he was a bad example, and if I wanted to be good I couldn't talk to bad people.
A picture of several children playing in a field on a bright sunny day. One blonde boy of around ten holds a ball as if to throw it over the head of the man in front of him, presumably to the nearly identical boy on the other side. A small blonde girl sits to the side, an older woman fussing over her long dress. The handwriting on the back of the photo reads July 15, 1997

Recruitment Report
Date: April 7, 2000
Subject Name: Catarina Agnes Carino
Description of Incident: Investigation suggests manifestation of power occurred three days ago; members of community including birth parents were unwilling to talk to us when we made any mention of metahumans, but the child's uncle and de facto guardian was willing to help us interview the child. Child described kicking a soccer ball such that it cleared schoolhouse by ten feet. Powers seem to be increased strength and durability, though side effects are atypical; child complains of persistent pain. Uncle seems willing to cooperate; best course seems to be to work with parents to make him her legal guardian, since it is unlikely birth parents will cooperate with legal process if we are involved.
A picture of three young girls wearing basketball uniforms. Two stand on the ground, one holding a basketball and smiling for the camera. A third, blonde haired and short, hangs from the hoop with a wide grin, holding her other hand in a V-for-Victory gesture, despite the fact that she seems far too short to have made the jump. She is still in mid-swing, and an angry teacher can be spotted at the edge of the frame. A date is written on the back of the photo: February 4, 2001

Uncle Robby,
First off, happy birthday! You forgot to remind me, but I remembered ;P
My grades are good, yeah. Physics and Algebra II are giving me trouble, but I've got Annelise helping me with that
And... yeah, you were right, we are kind of a thing ^^'. I thought she just wanted to be friends, but we were hanging out in the courtyard last week, talking about Ross, and we just kept leaning closer until I couldn't help it--I kissed her on the lips @_@ I thought she was gonna run away from me, but after a second she kissed me, and then she asked me if I wanted to come to her room to watch a movie *_* So we've been hanging out a lot more, and she said she wanted to be my girlfriend (and don't you dare say "I told you so"). It's way more serious than it was with Ross; I think I might be in love with her~

A letter from Hammel Institute Administration, postmarked August 2005
Dear Mr. Robert Carino;
Unfortunately, we must notify you that your daughter has been given an in-school suspension for the next Saturdays. Our staff members, upon searching her room, found several bottles of liquor hidden. This is obviously not acceptable for a student at our institute, especially on the grounds. This is her first recorded offense of this kind, and so her punishment is relatively light, but we have reason to suspect that this has been going on for some time. While she will be meeting with the on-staff psychologist, we recommend that you talk to her as well; she may respond more favorably to you.

A Hammel yearbook, dated 05-06. Marker and pen marks are on nearly every page, and Cat appears in her fair share of club photos, including the Gay-Straight Alliance and Student Government. Though there are many signatures in the book, only a small number of them left more than their names and a generic note, but among those remaining, many wrote much more.
A picture of a slim young woman, around five feet tall, standing with her sleeve rolled up and right shoulder exposed to the camera. She is wearing a white undershirt, camouflage pants, and brown combat boots, an outfit which mostly hides what little she has in the way of curves. A fierce, toothy smile splits her face from ear to ear. Two other people, both men, are in the picture, dressed similarly and holding the same pose. All three have the same tattoo on their right shoulder, freshly done as evidenced by the red flush of their skin: a pair of crossed flintlock pistols. Orange letters in the bottom right corner show the date as 9/15/06

A Facebook post in which Catarina is tagged. The first picture shows her standing with a few other students, some obviously younger than her, all of them dressed in their graduation garb and holding diplomas. The second picture shows the tiny woman in a black tank-top, blue jeans, and Chucks, being held by her ankles above a beer keg. Her long blonde hair is falling all around her head, but it's easy enough to see that her mortarboard is still pinned to her head. The post reads "CC: UV Graduate and Keg Stand Champ, 2014"
