Biography
Lei Ling
Approaching Madame Huang, she came to learn of the nature behind the Jade Towers that had been manifesting in the city. She was told that these were ancient weapons designed to destroy creatures known as the Nest. The Nest long ago were gigantic beings of a wide variety of shapes and forms. In those ancient days, mankind had used the Nest as transportation and shelter with the two living together peacefully. However, mankind's gradual technological development led to their expansion and they came to no longer see a need for the Nest. Thus, conflict erupted and the Jade Towers were built in order to destroy the Nest who became dormant beneath the earth. (Aero v1 #8)
With her powers fluctuating, she reverted back to her normal guise and she was freefalling as a result. Lei attempted to use her abilities to slow her descent but they were not working and her powers had not fully returned. Thus, she nearly died but was saved by the intervention of Iron Man who rescued her and recognised her as the architect he was going to meet earlier in the day. Ling revealed that she was secretly the hero Aero and asked that he maintain her secret identity which he agreed to do so. The two then worked together to combat the White Jade Towers that were attacking the city with the two splitting up to handle two separate targets. Aero then provided what information she could to Tony Stark who managed to determine that the cores of the towers used electromagnetic waves to communicate with the crystals which they used to respond to intruders. (Aero v1 #11)
