Biography
Origin
Katherine Rebecca 'Kate' Kane was the daughter of Colonel Jacob 'Jake' Kane and Captain Gabrielle 'Gabi' Kane with her having a twin sister named Elizabeth 'Beth' Kane. Her parents were both career military and had worked extensively for the military intelligence services whilst Kate was close to her sister. During her youth, her parents would get promoted leading to Kate and her sister moving to a variety of towns and bases with her father often being away. The Kane family later moved to Brussels in Belgium when her parents began serving in NATO. On her twelfth birthday, Gabi Kane took her daughters out for the day to an expensive restaurant for chocolate and waffles that were their favorite dish. On the way to the restaurant, a group of heavily armed terrorists from the Religion of Crime kidnapped them after killing their bodyguard. Military intelligence managed to uncover the location of the hostages with Jacob Kane placed in charge of the tactical unit to rescue his family. By the time they arrived, Gabi Kane and seemingly Elizabeth Kane were killed in the crossfire between the terrorists with the tactical unit. Jacob Kane had arrived just in time to save his only surviving daughter namely Kate Kane who was traumatized as the sight of her dead mother and twin sister. In the years afterwards, her father had married the wealthy weapons heiress Catherine Hamilton. Kate attempted to please her father and decided to enlist into the military where she joined the marines. In her time there, she received excellent grades and ranked at the top of her class. During that time, she was at United States Military Academy at West Point where she roomed with Cadet Captain Sophie 'Gimme' Moore. In that time, she had entered into a lesbian relationship with Moore. Her commander eventually learnt of the relationship and approached Kane to ask her to disavow the allegation. However, Kate refused to lie and thus violated the DADT code at the Academy. Thus, she confirmed her sexual orientation by admitting that she was a lesbian forcing her to leave the school. She later confronted her father about the news who supported her where he held that she had held herself with honor and integrity. Kate later moved back to Gotham City where she began to attend college and began to pursue a wild socialite lifestyle with her becoming notorious for partying and drinking.
