Bio
As a young girl in Praetoria, Alison Ingeer grew up idolizing the Praetors. She made the decision early to set herself on a path to work with Powers Division, if they would have her. Her applicant screening revealed Alison had a latent mutation, and her patriotic spirit was enough to green light her empowerment at the end of her training. At first, Alison was living the dream: protecting the public from resistance attacks, hunting down threats to the states, shutting down resistance cells. But as she matured and advanced to squad leadership, she began to see the plight of everyday people caused by the very people she once believed to have been keeping them 'safe'. No side in Praetoria was guiltless in causing harm to the innocent, but as she learned more about the Seers, a network of psychics being harvested involuntarily to subdue the will of the citizenry, Dawn could no longer side with the Praetors she had once idolized.
As interdimensional war broke out, the hubris of Praetoria's isolated cities in a world decimated by Hamidon began to topple in on itself. Dawn abandoned her post and assisted the resistance in overthrowing a military facility, which was feasible only due to the Praetorian army fighting a war on two fronts. After the facility was claimed, Dawn commandeered a bus and rounded up civilians and rivals alike, telling them she had a 1 way ticket to Primal earth. Oh boy did she ever.
Arrested immediately as an enemy combatant, while the civilians she escorted were detained in a refugee facility for about a month as the war ended, Dawn was held for longer, for comprehensive screening and processing. The thing which gave her the most hope were the frequent, nearly daily, visits from her counterpart on Primal earth, the hero who called herself, inexplicable as it seemed, January Arms. As soon as word had reached Allison Ingeer of Primal earth that her counterpart was being detained, she wasted no time making introductions and arrangements for Alison Ingeer of Praetoria to be situated welcomely in her new home world.
Jan's loving acceptance and similar inclination to help the innocent endeared her to Dawn. They became roommates, teammates, and sisters. As time passed, the differences between the two became more apparent leading each to a deeper understanding and love of the other. Dawn joined SPORT, the Super Powered Organized Response Team, and quickly impressed their leadership with her professionalism.
Helping out the heroes of the city and citizens in distress, Dawn set about building a name for herself. As daunting as it had been to arrive as an enemy, and start out in the shadow of her found-sister, Dawn continues to make frienships and connections all her own.
Recent developments
As Dawn saw the engagement of her sister Jan to a half-plant eco warrior with a heart of gold, she began to contemplate her future as her own woman, unbound on an open-ended path with an unknown destination. During a Crey media event in Atlas Park, her attention was drawn to a seasoned hero, Xeden , who commended her avoidance of the spotlight. She would subsequently work alongside and fall into a deep crush with the tormented yet noble old-soldier. She would see a kinship in his trauma and guilt over his role in the war, although the depths of his anguish had taken him down avenues to which Dawn had no parallel. The two triumphed against Avatars of Hamidon, allowing operations to proceed in the Last Bastion, giving a glimmer of hope that Praetoria could one day begin to be resettled. Their attempts at a romantic partnership proved too insurmountably complicated for Dawn, who holds a place for him in her heart even as she resolved to no longer press for a relationship which she felt she was inflicting on him.
Chronal Ambitions
Following a tip from Major Babe the team lead of SPORT, Dawn and the team co-chair Practice Girl gave some attention to a vulnerable point in the timeline where they found an opportunity the lost life of their contact. This contact found their salvation outside of the time stream by becoming one of the menders. Weeks later, as Dawn was watching her sister close in on her wedding day, Dawn discovered an inexplicable portal to a world just like her own, as it had been before it fell. She tracked down herself to convey a dire warning about her own impending misfortunes, specifically the abandonment of her parents to share the fate of the world which she had fled. The counterpart was not amused, reacted with hostility, and was further frustrated when Dawn escaped through a glowing gold portal which did not respond to the counterpart. Dawn didnt let up, she returned multiple times, bringing friends to show them the world on it's way to imploding, and pleading again for her counterpart to listen. The counterpart was still green, enrapt by the stories she'd heard of the Praetors growing up. Dawn backed off and allowed her counterpart to see the cracks in the world around her on her own terms. Dawn would return as the world was again in the full chaos of it's collapse. The Praetorian army fighting a war on two fronts, the resistance overtaking key facilities, the citizens hapless and looting, Hamidon closing in to devour the last lingering holdout of humanity. Dawn checked in on her couterparts family home. Vacant, door ajar, cleaned out of its valuables. No bodies. Dawn was unable to find her counterpart anywhere on the destabilized planet. Although her parents never turned up on Primal earth, it was a small comfort to know that she may have impacted some other version of herself. Dawn theorizes that this opportunity was given to her by the mender she had rescued, but she may never know the whole truth.
Kindred Dispirits
In Dawn's efforts to advance her status and visibility within Vanguard, she was assigned a partner from the Rogue Isles by the moniker of Lady Speed Stick. Stick was a troubled woman with a sadness in her heart which would often be ventilated through rage. Belonging to a deeply connected group of criminals and mercenaries, Stick discovered she rather enjoyed having the option to clock in with their affiliates in Vanguard on her owm terms. Dawn and Stick forged what felt like a forbidden friendship, holding a respect for each other that few of their own allies, well few of Stick's allies, could condone.
Enter: Nightwish
Sharpening her skills as a soldier, Dawn fell in line assisting with the efforts in the Rikti War Zone. At first, Dawn had aspired to demonstrate her skills and reliability where Xeden would notice, but the two seemed to catch notice of their own from an amorphous, amorous devil by the name of Nightwish. Nightwish would flirt and taunt and chide and push Dawn's buttons in an attempt to break down the barriers of her by-the-books good girl facade, as Dawn would insist all-the-while that she was an ordinary person who posessed an average capacity of physical desire. Night seemed to have been defying Dawn to prove this, and Dawn eventually played right into her hand. After backing down from her persuits with a relationship with Chris (Xeden), Dawn had been intrigued by Night enough to the point of considering a relationship with the devil, and her first with a woman. After a rocky start (Night had insulted Dawn over her crush on Chris) the two made amends and expanded the bounds of their friendship to include physical intimacy. The relationship is ongoing, however, it has become inexplicably estranged.
