Background

“

Granted the dubious honor of being named Time Magazine's most dangerous woman on the planet, Calico is an enigmatic occult arms dealer that is willing to fund any and all sides of a conflict if the price is right.

While her critics (and friends) would correctly identify her as being amoral, she is not without her principles... however cold and calculated those principles may be.
