Origin:
Gatto di Sangue is a paranormal, a sort of altered human who gained her powers during the White Event, an astronomical incident that forever set her timeline apart from our own. Gatto's unique power seems to be an enhancement of her already impressive dexterity.
Powers:
Other than her enhanced Agility, none.
Hindrances / Augmentations:
(none)
Equipment:
Comm Gear (i): Gatto uses a head set to keep in touch with Babel, the Medusa Web's leader. This device has intensity 7 communications range (100 miles), and has the ability to transmit and receive both audio and video, so Babel can easily monitor her progress on a mission.
Skills:
Acrobatics (a): Gatto is an incredible athlete, and possessed this skill even before she became paranormal. A highly trained acrobat, Gatto can lower the difficulty of actions intended to reduce falling damage or to dodge attacks by one difficulty level - and make it look easy!
Boxing (s): the Medusa Web has trained Gatto di Sangue well in the fine art of fisticuffs, in that she can divide her pre-card play action score between two unarmed melee attacks, the last of which she may attempt as a contingent action.
Languages / Italian (i): Gatto is Italian, and speaks that language to the exclusion of all others. Not for any nationalist reasons, of course; she just doesn't know any other language. This just seemed a good place to make note of the fact that she does not speak any English, per se.
Martial Arts (a): Gatto has been well trained in several martial arts styles by the Medusa Web. As such, she may reduce the difficulty of actions intended to strike in unarmed melee combat, dodge incoming assaults, and catch thrown weaponry.
Contacts:
Gatto di Sangue is a member of the Medusa Web, and as such, can probably rely on them for aid should she need it, unless it would suit their purposes better to NOT help her. She doesn't seem too unreliable, so that probably wouldn't be the case. Probably.
Calling:
Peace of Mind: though it is hard to pin down Gatto's motivations, one can assume that she's out to achieve personal perfection - she was an Olympic contender, after all. Perhaps she simply joined the Medusa Web for the opportunity to hone her paranormal Agility to its highest degree?
Costume:
Unlike several of her fellows, Gatto wears a more 'traditional' super heroine outfit while on missions - if only because she tends to get involved in fights more often than not. Gatto wears red Spandex ™ pants, an orange vest, gray boots and gloves, and a white belt while working.
Personality:
It's hard to gauge her personality, when she's said and done so little on record.
Before her untimely death, Gatto did appear to be tiring of the endless violence that her jobs with the Medusa Web always entail. She was, in fact, going to quit the Medusa Web after the job rescuing Psi-Force from the Siberian Project. In the end, she just had bad timing.

Story:
Very little is known about the background of the Italian paranormal known as Gatto di Sangue, other than the fact that she was a former gymnast for her country during the 1980 Olympics ™. That, of course, was before the White Event.
Gatto was one of the 'two people per million' that was affected by this astronomical phenomenon, and as a result, her agility was increased tenfold. This, combined with her Olympic training, made her a prime candidate for Medusa Web membership.
Her first published appearance was when the Medusa Web was sent after the half of Psi-Force that was hiding out in the Horton Plaza, a giant, multi-level shopping center in San Diego. She wasn't active too long for this fight, however.
Kathy Ling flattened her with a force bolt, shortly before Potiphar put a whole lot of bullets through the telekinetic. Later, Gatto helped to liberate Psi-Force from the Siberian Project, after they'd been captured by the Soviet monster known as Rodstvow.
Unfortunately, Rodstvow lived within the Project facility, so the Medusa Web and Psi-Force had to deal with him, too. During this dragged out slugfest, Gatto was killed, cut in half by Rodstvow's crackling energy casing.
