A Hero's Duty: A Zero and Maero Production

[Maero]

Demon Flower, original name, Ria Hills, was part of a top secret government project. Abducted at a young age from an orphanage, she was turned into the top subject of project Dark Bloom. The project was supposed to genetically encode demonic spirits into cells in the body, allowing them to create magical super soldiers, held aloft by the powers of thousands of dead demons. The project was almost a success, but Ria's mind was too fragile and she went insane, breaking out of the labs and escaping into the city.

Of course, the government claims they had nothing to do with her creation and urges heroes to hunt her down and end her, and for good reason. Driven crazy by the energy of so many dead demons, she is driven to release her power in sinful ways, the most common of which is violence. She had killed men women and children, though more of the first and much fewer of the last. She has often allied or been used by other villains to get things, rob people, or simply kill. She has been captured twice, each time sent to a secret asylum owned by the government, and each time she has escaped, Her current kill count is estimate to be in the hundreds, some of those including heroes.
