In the ashes of the first Rikti War, The Therian Princess Ra chose peace by taking a mate. She gave birth to a tiger boy she named Mol Ragral, fashioning a surname from the combined names of his Therian parents, destined to be the first feline Therian-American civilian, free from the horrors of war.
Mol's mother was torn between the civilian motherhood and being a beacon of hope for Therians that sought her leadership for a better future. Ra would choose to side with Vanguard, Portal Corp and train under the wing of Avenging Falcon to become the hero known as Rocket-Cat.
The young tiger would be homeschooled by his father Gral. After Rocket fought in the second Rikti War, she traveled back to Theria to depose her father, the mad King Blacklion, but he stole her portal computer and disappeared into the chaos of the Praetorian War.
Mol could swear that he saw a dark-maned lion watching him from dark alleys when his mother was battling Battle Maiden in Blyde Square. When the battle was over, Rocket was alone. She vowed to use her fallen mentor's supergroup base as a rehabilitation facility for all animalfolk of Paragon City that were left homeless by the wars with dimensional invaders, in a place soon to be Cataway Center. Mol grew up there.
Mol never saw his parents show affection to each other. They rarely saw each other, but they agreed that Mol's American citizenship was important for the future of their people living in Paragon. Rocket-Cat fought to gain the trust of Vanguard by being an Ambassador of the Therian people, but also protecting Portal Corp scientists exploring other worlds. She also became an expert of their portal technology.
Mol imagined all the places his mother was exploring. But one day, Rocket-Cat came home bloodied and battered to lick her wounds after nearly being killed on Warrior Earth. She tried to take revenge on the legions of nanite-controlled soldiers for killing her mentor. But she refused to tell her child about her loss of control.
The teenage Mol socialized with the catfolk that escaped captivity in Crey Industries experiments. Most of Mol's friends were "Crey's Strays" and were female. The tiger looked up to them, and started to have thoughts of gender dysphoria, wondering if being feminine would help them be more happy about who they were. Mol was too scared to confide in their traditional parents about it.
When Rocket joined a new supergroup based out of an orbiting satellite, Mol used their connection to catfolk in the city to find their escaped grandfather Blacklion, who was operating out of an abandoned subway base with a team of vigilantes. It became a hideout where Mol was accepted, and taught to embrace the idea of being stronger than humans with the new codename, Tiger Maul.
Mol worked with the vigilantes in secret while maintaining cover at Paragon University. Blacklion had the idea for Mol to use their mother's connections with Portal Corp to get a monitor duty job to spy on dangerous worlds, and help him stage a Therian coup.
Mol was trained to monitor secret probes sent to other dimensions to steal technology for their grandfather's plans. It was amazing what the tiger was able to sneak through portals and metal detectors! On one mission to Warrior Earth, Mol's monitor feed went dark, so Mol sneaked through the portal himself to retrieve the probe. The tiger was soon in a life or death struggle with a Champion of Mourning, trying to use every trick they'd learned from Blacklion to gain the upper hand.
Able to disarm the warrior maiden, Mol raised her weapon, about to deliver the killing blow, but something stayed their hand. It wasn't a sudden case of conscience, but the connection between a Warrior Earth weapon and its wielder.
Warrior Earth was an apocalypse of endless battles controlled by a hive-mind network of machines, especially microscopic nanites that flowed through the blood of their strongest soldiers. The nanites that swarmed over the weapon in Mol's hand poured into their bloodstream to attack Mol's nervous system, to keep them from killing the Champion. The machines also had memory. The taste of Therian cat blood sparked the memory of a bloody battle with the Therian Rocket-Cat slaughtering dozens of warriors to seek revenge on her mentor's killer.
The nanites began to overtake the paralyzed Mol, the cold iron of the weapon dissolving into buzzing mist as the invading machines poured into their body. The warrior maiden was even drained into a dry, bloodless husk as the machines burst from her bloodstream to dominate the feline outsider.
Mol awoke next to a crumbling human skeleton. The Therian tiger's body had changed dramatically, gaining strength and feminine beauty that they secretly wanted. The tiger's DNA was overwritten, and now Mol thought of herself as female as she obeyed the buzzing thoughts of the nanite machines telling her to join the ranks of Battle Maiden's marauders.
When Rocket-Cat attempted a rescue, the mind-controlled Mol was outfitted with Warrior gear and sent shrieking to fight off her mother, swinging a deadly maul that bashed at her armor. Rocket was confused and could only recognize Mol by scent, but it was enough for the Warrior Earth marauders to bait her into a trap, ambushing her on all sides with shackles and chains, but she burst free with her rocket boots, vowing to find help to rescue Mol from their mind control.
Two years later, Mol had risen through the ranks of Warrior Earth, gaining strength and command of a company of champions. The machine intelligence had the collected data of the tacticians of ancient warmongers, and the idea of defeating their Therian enemy with the hands of her daughter was quite satisfying, even for a cold machine.
A dimensional beacon signal suddenly rang across the surface of Warrior Earth. From her lab, Rocket had sent Warrior Earth a message by opening a portal.
A kill-squad of powerful attackers from Warrior Earth portaled into Rocket's lab, led by Mol to destroy her mother. An unarmored Rocket-Cat was cornered but she tried to reach out with understanding and acceptance to her daughter, to see if there was anything remaining of her child's mind. As Mol hesitated her attack, her mother gave the signal for DJ Zero to step in and send the attackers back through the portal. She cashed in a one-time favor to build a dimensional lab in the one place where no one could sustain injury, in a pocket dimension where the DJ had godlike power. With the favor complete, she had to give up her lab, but Rocket-Cat finally had her daughter back.
Mol came back to live in Cataway Center with Gral, where she works with specialists alongside the newest of "Crey's Strays" to help her regain her sanity.
