Diamond Eagle (Freedom)
Origin
Ailah Kuronai was born and raised in the city of Arachrist, Nevada. She lived a normal life, conversed regularly, and made friends like anyone else. Arachrist was a rather uneventful town, itself. Filled with (mostly) regular people, nothing ever truly fantastic or amazing happened there. An occasional would-be villain or hero, but not much else. Then, as Ailah was going through the final stages of puberty, things started to change... and not in the natural way. She began growing several inches over the course of weeks, until she finally stopped at her current 8 foot height withing a week. The freakish growth spurt obviously panicked the 17-year old, as well as her parents. Fearing something was wrong, she was taken in to see a doctor. As the good doc attempted to take a blood sample, the needle broke, to everyone's surprise. The doctor examined Ailah and noticed that she had no scars from the sudden growth spurts, and determined it to be a form of accelerated healing process that her new body is going through. While this relieved the Kuronai family, it didn't protect them from the events to come.
Arachrist Blues
Ailah wasn't the only one to gain strange changes. Several others, including a few of her classmates, were effected as well. Some managed to keep it a secret, while a few, such as Ailah, had no control over their appearance or powers. Those who were found out to be the special were somewhat outcast, though not outwardly hated. They were given the name "Boomer Teens". It only took a rowdy group of Boomer Teens and one wrong word to cause an uproar. A man was killed in the crossfire that ensued, and that was enough to cause the city to go on an anti-super campaign. In a year, the city would become a mini-warzone.
Wrath of the Blue Lass
Ailah began skipping classes to avoid being confronted by people that wanted her to join the rebelling Boomer Teens and the teachers and classmates that saw her as a threat. The only ones that understood her were her parents and her fellow Boomer classmate, Xochitl del Rio, AKA Destello, a member of the rebellion. Ailah just wanted things to go back to the way they were. It wasn't until a mob burned down her home in an attempt to kill her and her parents that Ailah realized that there was no going back. Enraged, she lashed out at the mob, nearly killing some of them. After realizing what she had done, she saw the fear in their eyes. Monster, she thought. They all think I'm a monster. So she would become a monster. At 19, Ailah became the Blue Lass. For a year, she would rampage about the city, fighting for no other cause than to please her thirst for destruction.
From Coal to Diamond
For the last part of the year, a bounty hunter by the name of Twinjet would appear in Arachrist to quell some of the more troublesome Boomers. Along with another group of heroes, Twinjet was able to convince an entire group of rebellious Boomers over to their side, with minimal bloodshed. The civilians of Arachrist were thankful, and the war seemed to have ended. A choice few Boomers were left to round up, The Blue Lass among them. As a last-ditch effort, the last of them rushed the heroes before either being taken down or retreating.
Appearance
Ailah stands at an imposing 8-foot-6, with a highly developed athletic build.
