History

Hank was named after her grandmother, Henrietta, and the abolitionist Sojourner Truth. She had always hoped to become a police officer and when that failed, she became a security guard instead. While she was on the clock, she helped Artemis prevent a cemetary from being desecrated. It cost her her job, but she soon got a new one. Artemis was recruited into the demon-hunting group the Hellenders, and she would only join if Hank could join as well. Originally given the code name Cudgel, she chose to use her middle name instead.

During her missions with the team, she mainly piloted their transport, the Angelwing, and tried (often in vain) to teach Artemis restraint.
