Background:
Kim grew up in a very poor, dangerous part of Paragon City with her two brothers.  She learned very early on that what mattered most in life was power.  Some had it, and they used it against those that didn't.  She learned to survive, taking what she could, striving to be the one with all the power.  To that end when she was a teenager she joined the forces of Arachnos, the army run by the biggest supervillain in her world.  Kim earned respect, and managed to join the Crab Spider division, who were the heavy firepower soldiers.  She managed to climb high in the ranks, getting the best of equipment, through a combination of skill, strength, threats, blackmail, assasination, seduction, backstabbing, and bribery.  She eventually hit the ceiling.  The only way to raise higher in the ranks was to join the inner circle of leutenants, and Lord Recluse has stricktly forbidden her from killing her superior Black Scorpion.  

Gaining power and wealth through private schemes was allowed, but with countless villains to compete with, not to mention literally hundreds of heroes ready to stop her, it proved nearly impossible to get anywhere.  That is when she decided to steal some portal technology and find another world where conditions were more favorable.  Kim went through a number of worlds before finding Angel Falls.  Despite being attacked right as she came to this world, and several rough battles in the weeks afterwards, she has decided this world could be very profitable for her.  She has since kept a low profile.  Studying the workings of this city while building her power base.  Soon she will start making her mark.
