History:
Felicia Hardy was born in Queens, New York. Her father Walter pretended to be a travelling salesman, but was a world-renowned cat burglar who, before his arrest, encouraged her to never settle for second best.
As a freshman at Empire State University, Felicia was raped by her boyfriend Ryan. Hating the idea of being a victim, she trained herself in various fighting styles and acrobatics, intent on killing her rapist. Finally, after months of preparing, she set out for revenge, but before she could find him, Ryan was killed in a drunk driving accident. Furious that she was denied the chance for revenge, Hardy decided to utilize her new skills to follow in her father's footsteps. After amassing a fortune in stolen items, Felicia adopted her costumed identity.
She first donned the Black Cat costume in order to break her father out of prison. On the same night, she met Spider-Man. Unfortunately for Felicia, her father died, and she then faked her own death. Despite her antipathy towards men, Felicia felt a kinship with this lone hero; Spider-Man was the first man she felt she could trust and she grew to believe herself in love with him. Felicia looked for a way to earn his trust and continued with the Black Cat persona as a misguided attempt to attract his affection.
Once he realized just how much he cared for her, they began a relationship and soon Peter revealed his identity to her. Felicia had great difficulty accepting the fact that Peter was just a man beneath the mask and could not understand his need for a civilian life. Peter was hurt, but continued the relationship since it was the first time he did not need to hide his life as Spider-Man from someone.
Felicia feared her lack of superpowers made her a liability to Spider-Man. She was terrified that his overwhelming need to protect her would eventually get him killed. So, Felicia sought a way to make herself Spider-Man's equal. After learning Tony Stark was missing, Henry Pym would not return her calls, and being rejected by the Avengers and the Fantastic Four, Felicia was offered an opportunity to undergo the same process that was used to create the Scorpion and the Fly. The Kingpin chose to use it on the Black Cat as payback for a theft she committed. Scared and ashamed of being empowered by the Kingpin of crime, she decided to keep her new abilities a secret from Peter. Eventually, feeling a wall of secrets growing between them, Spider-Man broke up with Felicia. Felicia then began a "Robin Hood crusade," stealing from the rich to give to the poor.
Peter soon realized something was amiss with his own luck and enlisted the aid of Doctor Strange to remove the "hex" on him. By doing so, he altered the hex's source and changed the Black Cat's powers in the process. She soon found she had heightened strength, agility, balance, vision, and retractable claws.
The Black Cat updated her look and her attitude and rekindled her relationship with Spider-Man. She made peace with his need for a normal life as Peter Parker and stood by him while he was being accused of murder as Spider-Man. Eventually, just as his life seemed to be coming together, Spider-Man came home to discover Black Cat discussing her plans to ruin his life. He followed her to find she had never forgiven him for breaking up with her and in revenge became the Foreigner's lover. In the end, the Black Cat left for Paris to find a new life, which unexpectedly pushed Peter to find support and a new relationship with Mary Jane Watson.
Sample Post:
Felicia tumbled in the pile of pearls, jewels, and money that she had been picking off of people and places here and there in Paris. All the spoiled tourists were so busy being caught up in the "atmosphere of love" and sightseeing that they didn't pay close attention to their valuables they were missing along the way. It was so easy, she could just feel guilty.
Good thing she didn't.
She had finished rolling around in her acquired wealth and slid the jewels off of the soft bed and into a purple velvet bag. A light knock came to the door as she was tucking the bag safely into her luggage and zipping it up.
"Room service, Ms. Felicia" a young man's voice echoed from the hall. When possible, Felicia loved to surround herself with luxury, wealth, and class. This five-star tourist resort was definitely her style.
"One second" Felicia called from the other side of the door as she turned on the steamy water to draw a bath and covered her silk, risque nightie with a luxurious robe. She made sure to leave just enough slack in the robe to frame her clevage, for distraction purposes. She slowly opened the door and greeted the young man with her best 'bedroom eyes'. (The look she used to get the things she wanted. Men were weak, and sex was their breaking point.)
"Bonjour handsome" she said in a sultry manner, smiling suggestively as she leaned on the doorframe.
The young male stuttered for a few seconds, cleared his throat, then presented her with a tray of fresh cut fruit, coffee, and the morning's news. She widened the door so he may enter her room, and gestured for him to set the tray on the table. He was a bit startled after he set down the tray and turned around, as she was just inches away from him.
"Thank you very much..." she toyed with the buttons on his uniform jacket and circled the nametag with her finger "...Claude." The poor boy was flustered and sweating up a storm as the busty woman rubbed against him. She leaned forward to grab a strawberry, intentionally lingering for just a second more than necessary so he would catch the scent of her hair and perfume. She then stood back up and began to eat the strawberry suggestively. "Strawberry?" she asked, flirtatiously and the young boy might as well have been drooling as she did so. Of course, she would never do something like this without an angle As she distracted his attention with the fruit and her clevage, her other hand slipped into his jacket pocket and slid out a rather fat collection of tip money and transferred it into her robe pocket. The boy stumbled over his words and produced incoherent sounds in response. She laughed softly, what a sap!
"Hm, what a shame. That'll be all!" she took a sip of her coffee, set it down, grabbed the newspaper, and began to slide off her robe as she walked towards the now steam-filled bathroom while he was still there. The boy panicked and shuffled clumsily out of the room, closing the door behind him. She laughed and began to slide the silk off of her body. As she slowly dipped her body into the hot water, she glanced at the newspaper in her hand. The headline highlighted the newest American debut of a set of 60.1 carat pear-shaped, flawless diamond earrings, valued at 8.5 million dollars. The newest jewels are to be set on display in New York's Harry Winston jewelry store this week.
Felicia smiled as she tossed the newspaper onto the bathroom counter, sank deeper into the water, and laid her head back to rest. "Time for a trip back home" she softly giggled to herself.
