Fictional Character Biography[edit]
While vacationing with her husband (Christopher) and two sons, Scott and Alex, their plane was attacked by a Shi'ar spacecraft. Katherine gave her only parachute to Scott and pushed him out of the plane while he held on to his younger brother, Alex. While it was believed by both siblings their parents had perished in the plane crash, both had, in fact, been abducted and taken aboard the star cruiser. While her husband was imprisoned, Katherine was forced to join the ranks of D'Ken's harem as a pleasure maid.[1] When her husband escaped the slave pens to reclaim his wife, he was captured at the palace. He was then forced to witness the death of his wife at the hands of D'Ken, who fatally stabbed her. D'Ken then harvested the baby by ripping it out of her body. Following this, he would incubate the body of the child, which would grow up to be Katherine's and Corsair's third child, Gabriel.
