History: Felicia Hardy was a college student studying the liberal arts at Empire State University with no real direction or plan for after graduation when she discovered that her father had been an infamous cat burglar in his day. Inspired by his example, she honed her natural athletic talent while secretly learning the less legal aspects of the criminal trade, particularly lock-picking and where to fence stolen goods.
Taking a hint from the emerging superhuman population, Felicia hid her identity by taking on the identity of the Black Cat. While lacking any superhuman powers of her own, she has been able to hold her own in combat against her most common adversary, the web-slinging Spider-Man, long enough to escape on several occasions. In her civilian identity, she has dated Peter Parker from time to time, unaware that he is her most common opponent; Peter is himself unaware that Felicia is the Black Cat, although he has his suspicions.
Recently, the Black Cat has shifted her practices from stealing goods that are easily fenced to stealing items for paying clientele.

Other Abilities: The Black Cat is an Olympic-level athlete and expert (pardon the pun) cat-burglar. She possesses a natural talent for acrobatics and unarmed combat.
Weapons: The Black Cat often uses a grapnel which resembles a cat's claws in design to swing from the rooftops. She has also recently added sharp claws to her gloves. For distracting her opponents while making her escape, she carries a number of shuriken.

Role-Playing Notes:
Felicia is mostly in the business for the kicks. When things don't go her way, she's more liable to cut her losses and run rather than stick around to fight. She also cases her escape routes in advance, setting things up ahead of time to give the illusion of luck manipulation so she can hinder those pursuing her.
