Quote1 Blue, green, red, Ferdie's dead. White, pink, brown, he's rotting in the ground. Quote2
Shauna Belzer src

Shauna Belzer is metahuman able to control her dummy, Ferdie, without being in physical contact with him. She was introduced auditioning in a talent show, but was harshly rejected and responded violently. After her first defeat by Batgirl, she (or rather Ferdie) became obsessed with her, causing her to become the serial killer known as the Ventriloquist.

Her father a concert pianist, her mother a ballerina, and her twin brother Ferdie a child star, Shauna Belzer always seemed plain. Her brother was so different than her, and she was jealous. While he was popular and a successful actor at his young age, she was tormented by her classmates. Shauna discovered her powers when she telekinetically shoved a classmate who was mocking her into the path of an oncoming car. Soon afterward, while Shauna and her brother Ferdie were using a swing set, Shauna forced her brother's swing higher and higher before breaking the swings, causing Ferdie to fall on his face and die from a snapped neck.

Shauna's next kill would be Rainbow Rodney, a clown at a classmate's birthday party, who she killed by poisoning the punch bowl. Taking Rodney's ventriloquist dummy, she renamed it "Ferdie" after her brother. Shauna now had her "partner in crime" for when she would eventually become the serial killer the Ventriloquist.
