Katharsis is a former enforcer for Knightfall who later joined The Movement.
History
Kulap Vilaysack escaped her native Laos as a child, together with her mother. Via Thailand, they made it to the United States, where they boarded with a Baptist family in Minnesota. Her mother opened a restaurant, while Kulap joined the police.
Her career in the force didn't last long. After being forced to let a man who had murdered an immigrant girl go, she confronted the man and made sure he remembered her. Rumors that she castrated him were heard, but not true. She was forced to flee the city.[1] After a short stint in Gotham City under Knightfall, she moved to Coral City and joined The Movement.
