Coda has had a long life. Her parents hated her knowing there was a demonic presence lurking inside of her head. So they thought they could solve it by abusing her. Hurting her till she couldn't walk or breath. One day her parents held her down and raked blades over the skin above and below her eyes giving her those scars. (On the cover). And that was enough. She ran away when she was ten and found a man who taught her to be the worlds greatest assassin. Ten years later she came home to see her parents have replaced her and had another child that they loved and didn't abuse. It infuriated her so she simply killed them all, enjoying the screams of them when she tortured them. Still she wanders around killing random targets. Easy enough she finds others that are supernatural beings like her.
