 * HistoryText            = A medical engineer, Angela Spica applied to an employer who turned out to be more than they appeared. After her skills proved enticing for her to get through several layers of vetting (as well as two different front employers) she was employed by I.O. at a blacksite codenamed "Structure Yesod", which contained a contraband spaceship that I.O. had "found" years earlier. However, she was moved from her old position to a new one, in the Manhattan office, where she impressed all her supervisors. It was assumed that as an engineer she could contribute to new armor designs for black ops teams.

Everyone Is Looking Up
Drawing on her expertise and some notes she'd cribbed while snooping through the files on the spaceship, Angie create a "transdermal drysuit" - a modifiable suit of armor, stored as microscale components inside her body, but which can emerge upon command and enable the user.

Bonding her prototype to herself, she petitioned her superiors for more funding, and when none was forthcoming, she tried to ask her boss, Miles Craven, personally, while he was on a lunch date with his husband. Unsuccessful, she was in the right place at the right time to save Jacob Marlowe, a tech billionaire who fell from a skyscraper window. However, she was instantly photographed and filmed by everyone present, and flew away.

Because of the contraband nature of the technology in her armor, Angie was sought by an I.O. covert action team (CAT), who regarded her as something to be covered up. However, she was rescued by a wild CAT, working for Jacob Marlowe. Initially standoffish, she agreed to go with them - particularly after two members of the group revealed themselves to her as aliens.

Lux Mentis, Lux Orbis
Jacob Marlowe presented her with an offer - he would give her access to his technology and resources, to improve her equipment, and in return, all he wanted was a data dump of what her systems could accomplish now, with a comparable data dump when she was done. To prove his trustworthiness, he told her a story of how his species came to Earth.
