Jennifer had snow-white skin and a thick head of red hair. Talented and witty, she was the "muse of the arts" in London's salons.
But in the nineteenth century, the arts scene was controlled by men who wallowed in self-pity. In their eyes, women were decorations, dinner-table conversation, and targets for their theft. Jennifer soon grew tired of the art world.
Later, she learned that she had a maternal half-brother: the mysterious and dangerous Earl Moriarty. With time on her hands, Jennifer took the initiative and set out on a new career.
Her brother recognized her talent and was eager to nurture and protect her.
Before long, Jennifer had become a major player in London's underworld.
But she was a criminal with principles. She only went after the hidebound aristocrats of high society and the capitalist monsters who exploited workers. She was always willing to help those in need.
Playing Robin Hood and robbing the rich to help the poor gave Jennifer a sense of purpose.
Business went smoothly until the Holmes brothers appeared. Her brother, James Moriarty, was locked away in an asylum. The organization fell apart, and London's gangs fought over territory like rabid dogs.
"Damn those Holmeses." Jennifer vowed to take revenge!

The Holmes family, protectors of London.
Many years ago.
By day, Mycroft was the laziest civil servant in the British Empire, yet the government couldn't do without him. He leisurely clocked out right on time.
By night, he had a secret identity: the Night Rider, who fought crime and punished the wicked. Back then, he was the nightmare of every criminal and supernatural creature.
Later, once his younger siblings had grown up, Mycroft could finally lay down his burdens and retire behind the scenes.
He began to "indulge himself," living a quiet, comfortable life, with a constant supply of delicious food and research to keep him at home. He avoided all unnecessary socializing.
As a result, he grew stout, slow-moving, and lazier by the day.
"Mycroft, did a cat scratch your face?"
"A wild cat. A red-haired wild cat."
"I didn't know cats came in red. Your lies are really quite pathetic, brother."
"There are plenty of things you don't know!"
"You should exercise, brother. Otherwise, you won't even be able to catch a beautiful, sly red-haired cat."
"Shut up, Sherlock."
