Origin
Wild.C.A.T.s
During a mission the super hero team the Wild.C.A.T.s had gone missing and were thought to have died. In their place Mr. Majestic and Savant chose to put together a new fighting team and they chose Maxine along with Tao and Condition Red. However Mr. Majestic was against allowing her to be in the group, but Savant wanted the group to have another female member aside from herself and Tao also wanted her on the team and used his skills of persuasion to get Majestic to back down. The other members picked her up as she was attempting to steal money from two drug dealing groups. Once captured Tao administered a computer program that would alter her personality somewhat. She resigned from a life of crime, but remained very violent. She even found herself falling for her comrade Condition Red, but he didn't like her attitude nor her robotic parts. He was adamant about avoiding her advances and even used his wounds during an explosion to get away from her. She was very upset and took this out on the person who caused his injuries. Along with Spartan he told her that it was there teammate Tao that gave him the instructions for attacking them. Along with the rest of the team she confronted him about the incident and he was found to be a criminal genus who had been using the team to start a Gang War. Despite his lack of true powers he was able to use his wits to do a great deal of damage to the group. Tao was able to disconnect the cooling unit for her nuclear core. It would have gone critical if Majestic had not removed it and flown it into space to freely detonate. The battle ended when Majestic returned killing him. However Maxine has suffered a great deal of damage. In order to repair her she was brought to the Church of Gort. the Church is made up of robots and cyborgs who felt all life was indeed sacred. She soon became a member and followed in their teachings. Majestic had became enthusiastic about her new found faith. However she only viewed machine life as scared, but Majestic still felt this was better than her previous style. However trouble arose in the Church and some of it's patrons felt she was too organic and attacked her.
Halo Corporation
After abandoning the Church she met Condition Red's brother Grifter, but due to her annoying personality he had her sent to the offices of the Halo Corporation to get ride of her. She found that the member Voodoo had been wounded in an attack by Slaughterhouse Smith's grandson Samuel Smith. She decided to get back at him for his attack. However her noble sentiment was not with out flaws. Her method for tracking him down was to attack any one in a hotel that had the name Smith. She had plowed through a few innocent bystander, but somehow did find the right Smith. Sadly he was more powerful than her and she was damaged very badly. She appeared again after her body was reprogrammed by Noir. He altered her form and controlled her as a weapon against the corporation, but her from was beaten by Hadrian. She was then again remote controlled this time by Grifter who had his legs wounded and used her to perform his missions, this was short lived as his legs regenerated shortly after.
