Lucille Kearby

Lucille Kearby, or Penny Dreadful, is the leader of the Greenback Militia. She is a former law student who has now switched to running the gang full-time, following the outing of her civilian identity. She's rebranded her gang in an attempt to position herself as a champion of the people. Secretly on the payroll of the Tartarus Family.

Appearance
Lucille is tall and lean, with light skin and naturally wine-red hair and eyes. She has a small identifying scar near her left eye. Her costume is a red jumpsuit, not unlike a flight suit, with gold and bronze panels attached built to resemble the skirt of a Roman centurion and a pair of wings. She wears her hair with blunt bangs and in a high ponytail.

History
Lucille was born with her powers, a mutation resulting from her mother working with highly experimental materials while pregnant with her. When her parents' research was confiscated by the government, Lucille's powers developing were a saving grace for their work. Unfortunately for Lucille, they came with a potentially-fatal autoimmune disorder, as her body failed to recognize the mutated cells as its own. As a result, Lucille was frail and sickly for most of her childhood.

Fed up with being treated like a test subject, a teenaged Lucille emancipated herself and fled to El Asilo, where she knew her parents wouldn't follow. She quickly fell in with the Greenback Gang, then headed by Janice Grant-Campbell, and took over the gang when Janice retired from villainy. Later, she attended law school with Janice while also running the gang.

When Lucille's civilian identity was outed by a blackmailer, she lost access to the specialized medication her parents had developed to keep her alive, and her condition has been seriously deteriorating since. She formed a relationship with the Tartarus family to help support her group, and shortly thereafter rebranded as the Greenback Militia in an attempt to fix the image problem they had developed.

Janice Grant-Campbell
Janice is Lucille's ex-girlfriend. They had a tense, but amicable relationship as roommates in law school, but a rough fight over ideological differences cut a deep rift between them, and Janice still isn't taking her calls.

Roulette
One of Penny's lieutenants, Roulette has always proven themself trustworthy. They have a good working relationship, and it's best to keep it that way. Penny had a crush on them once, but it didn't end well for anyone.

Grey
The other one of Penny's lieutenants. Grey and Penny have had a rocky relationship in the past, as Penny's mild jealousy over their relationship with Roulette spiraled into a distrust and unwillingness to take them seriously. Penny is still working on making amends.

Nyx
The matriarch of the Tartarus family and their direct liason to the Greenbacks. Penny has developed an irrational desire to please her, probably because she is a very good manipulator. Nyx has her wrapped around her finger.
