Rhea Beecher Duncan is the daughter of Karen Beecher and Mal Duncan.
History
Rhea Beecher Duncan was born on January 21 at Ivy University. Her mother went into labor while she and her husband were driving.
Rhea was born with a hole in her heart. Though a surgeon probably could have repaired it, all the available surgeons wouldn't be able to get to the university in time due to snow. Therefore, directly after giving birth, Karen shrunk down using her Bumblebee suit, went inside her daughter's bloodstream, and repaired the hole herself.
While she was shrunk inside her daughter, Karen continued to shrink down to Rhea's DNA and altered it, giving her daughter the Metagene for superpowers, despite neither Karen nor her husband having it themselves.
Rhea survived the operation and received her name.
