γ…€γ…€ γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€ HISTORY


2004-2022

Sydney Stark was born in Westchester, New York to Patrick and Eleanor Stark; twin brothers Elliot and Wesley followed three years later.She was entered into Vought’s pediatric V-dosing program at birth. Compound V side-effects produced a documented variation of sex characteristics.Childhood environment was unstable: father exhibited frustration at delayed power manifestation. Twin brothers Elliot and Wesley engaged in frequent verbal and physical harassment. Mother functioned as primary emotional safeguard.Primary ability is contact-based power inheritance that did not manifest until age twelve. Powers presented unknowingly the same year (2016) when a domestic altercation escalated and Sydney involuntarily replicated Elliot’s teleportation on contact, resulting in his subsequent death. Wesley responded with pyrokinetic discharge. Sydney instinctively teleported with the newly acquired power, made accidental contact with Wesley, and inherited fire concurrently, triggering an uncontrolled blast that destroyed the residence and killed the remaining members of her family.Sydney fled the scene and survived approximately one week in the nearby woods using her newfound teleporation powers to steal food and supplies. Vought located and recovered her without force, placing her at Red River Orphanage under sealed guardianship. During her six years there she stabilized and improved. Sydney taught herself guitar, further refined her teleportation powers, developed basic martial arts skills, and established strict protocols around her power inheritance.At eighteen she accepted a Vought scholarship to Godolkin University and initially ranked #82 upon enrollment.


Note: Considered intersex. External male genitalia and reproductive organs are present, breasts are present, uterus/cervix is not present. Public identity affirmed as woman (she/her).  INTERNAL TAG    Red River File : RR-STK-117


2022-PRESENT

Admitted on scholarship to Godolkin University, Sydney declared Crime Fighting as her major with a Performance Arts minor.She established a stable routine split between combat labs, simulator blocks, and a dorm desk studio. Orientation placed her in a Hero Management seminar with Cate Dunlap. They formed an immediate, high-functioning partnershipβ€”academic, operational, and personal. By mid-freshman term they were effectively inseparable.While Cate maintained a public relationship with Luke Riordan (Deceased), Sydney and Cate developed a private, ongoing attachment. Both parties kept the relationship discreet, with no documented operational breaches.Sydney’s capabilities advanced rapidly: teleportation (acquired at age 12) was refined into precision, multi-hop chains with safe two-person lifts; power inheritance remained primary but governed by strict self-limits (consent-first training only; acknowledged inability to maintain permanence unless resulting in host fatality). She shows strong situational awareness, collateral discipline, and team coordinationβ€”particularly in paired exercises with Cateβ€”producing consistent performance gains and a sustained Top 10 student ranking across terms.Following Luke Riordan’s death, Sydney served as Cate’s primary support system while both continued coursework and training. Thereafter, they formalized their relationship.Sydney’s campus profile is compact: moderate attendance, low disciplinary footprint, minimal social exposure outside a small circle, and a clear pattern of oath-driven loyalty.


FUTURE...

Across modeled timelines, Sydney Stark and Cate Dunlap remain a bonded unit with stable domestic outcomes.Children are a constant: Riley (eldest daughter) and Ellie (younger daughter) appear in all projections. Select branches add twin sons Logan and Lance (frequency variable).Professional trajectories diverge, but the pair’s operating patternβ€”mutual protection, low collateral, high coordinationβ€”persists regardless of employer.Most canon-adjacent projections resolve into one of the following prime outcomes:(1) Sydney enters the Seven under the hero name β€œWraith” while Cate manages and handles her operations.(2) Both join the Seven as equal field assets.(3) Sydney exits frontline hero work for music production while Cate serves as primary caregiver to their children.(4) They found an independent hero agency/management firm outside Vought oversight that prioritizes ethical ops. All branches maintain strict press boundaries around privacy and a shared intent to route work toward safer neighborhoods and survivable futures.

FANGS AND FONDNESS

γ…€γ…€ γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€γ…€ contacts


  DUNLAP, CATHERINE  
ACTIVE

ROMANTIC PARTNER  β”€β”€  Stands with Cate even when it means siding with Homelander/The Seven. Devotion is absolute. Agreed with Cate on the necessity of killing Indira Shetty and freeing the kids from The Woods. Cate is the blind spot she chooses, she refuses to become another person who leaves her.

  MOREAU, MARIE  
ACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Sydney resented how quickly Marie and the others turned on them. Massive falling out when Marie refused to heal Cate and left her to die. Slow repair since. Sydney and Marie clash over many things, most notably Sydney’s β€œCate blinders,” but they keep showing up for each other. Friendship is mending.

  RIORDAN, SAMUEL  
ACTIVE

ALLY/FRIEND  β”€β”€  Initially angry about Cate’s affair with Sydney but came around. Sydney shows β€œlittle brother” energy towards him. Sydney pushed him to help save Cate from Elmira Detention Center by framing Cate as a victim like him. Solid now. Protective of the same family.

  MEYER, EMMA  
ACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Sydney vibes with Emma most, but resented Emma’s refusal/reluctance to forgive Cate and did not appreciate her constant bitchy attitude toward Cate. Trending back toward easy banter and dependable backup.

  LI, JORDAN  
ACTIVE

RELUCTANT ALLY  β”€β”€  Clocked the chemistry between Cate and Sydney early and tried to intervene which ultimately caused distance. Later severely injured Cate, persuaded Marie to leave her. Also punched Cate on return to Godolkin University. Sees Sydney as β€œtoo loyal”. Sydney reads Jordan as selfish and insulated. Functional cooperation only.

  ORTIZ, LILA  
INACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Primary contact during Red River placement. Kept her files humane and sealed. Instrumental in Sydney’s early healing, introduced music as an outlet and pushed her to see worth as a hero. Minimal contact since Godolkin University enrollment. Mutual respect remains.

  THE SEVEN  
INACTIVE

ENEMIES  β”€β”€  Sydney tolerated the brand to keep Cate safe. Homelander disliked her for showing ultimate loyalty to Cate instead of him. Once the group chose resistance, The Seven became active opposition.

  JANUARY, ANNIE "STARLIGHT"  
ACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Childhood hero during Red River placement, later went along with the targeted hate from The Seven while protecting Cate. Reconciled when Annie recruited them into the resistance. Respect restored.

  "POLARITY"  
INACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Won goodwill by publicly defending Cate and helping the group when it counted. Sydney keeps it crisp and professional. Personally apologized and expressed sympathy for Andre’s death. Gratitude on record.

  EDGAR, STAN  
INACTIVE

ALLY  β”€β”€  Initial suspicion stems both from her own observations during their stint with The Seven as well as Cate’s reports. Earned credit by assisting their side. Sydney never forgets the past, but she’ll take the help.

  RIORDAN, LUKE  
DECEASED

FRIEND/ALLY/MENTOR  β”€β”€  Saw Sydney’s potential, introduced her to Brinkerhoff and ultimately trained with her. Looked up to him and got along well but complications arised when she became jealous over his relationship with Cate. His kindness to her never changed. Grief remains complicated and sincere.

  ANDERSON, ANDRE  
DECEASED

FRIEND/ALLY/RIVAL  β”€β”€  Irritation at his privilege and overlapping affair with Cate created rifts. Cate stopped seeing him. When she eventually restored his wiped memories, he still wouldn’t stand with her despite knowing what she’d suffered. This only furthered the rift. When news of his death hit, Sydney and Cate processed it together.

  SHETTY, INDIRA  
DECEASED

ENEMY  β”€β”€  Sydney was always suspicious, but understood Cate's connection to her. Once the full scope surfaced, she sided with Cate to end it. Felt relief that Cate was finally free of Shetty’s manipulation.

  BRINKERHOFF, RICHARD  
DECEASED

MENTOR  β”€β”€  Repudiated. Early respect soured after learning what he did to Luke and Sam, and what he ultimately forced Cate to do. Whatever gratitude existed is overwritten by the harm.

  STARK, PATRICK  
DECEASED

FAMILY  β”€β”€ 

  STARK, ELEANOR
