Bio: Born in Freehaven much like many humans not captured by the Dezaras during the reign of the vile reptilian beings, Madison never knew who her parents were, nor did she ever experience their love, due to her parents allowing themselves to be captured by the Dezaras so that their daughter may live free. Spending her days as a little girl trying to survive, Madison did all she could, such as stealing food or money from the various denizens of the only stronghold of humans who did not enter stasis to serve the needs of the Dezaras. At nights, Madison struggled to keep warm under starlit skies, hoping to find a place to sleep in. Unfortunately, in many cases Madison could only take comfort under the covers of old newspapers while sleeping under the stars on cold, hard dirt.
Going about with her usual activity of stealing for food, Madison attempted to steal the wallet of a man she thought was easy pickings -- Nathaniel Gray. Of course, she almost succeeded in making off with Nathaniel's wallet, if it weren't for the fact that he was a half-step quicker in catching her. Having been defeated, Madison dejectedly gave Nathaniel back his wallet, Madison fully expected for Nathaniel to give her a tongue lashing, while turning her over to the authorities of Freehaven. However, Nathaniel's subsequent actions would really surprise the dark-skinned young thief, as Nathaniel offered her to become a part of a resistance force he was building. Knowing that the offer was not going to be enough to convince Madison to join, Nathaniel naturally threw in the one thing he felt Madison really wanted to sweeten the pot: he offered the young girl a home. While at first she did not express any interest in becoming a member of a resistance force to free the humans from Dezaras' control, the thought of having three meals a day and a bed to sleep in was too good of an offer to resist, so she naturally accepted.
The training, however, was anything but smooth. Though she showed potential in both mental training, as well as physical training (as she had chosen to train in Wushu kung fu), the lack of heart prevented her from achieving more than a mediocre level compared to her peers such as Talyn and Elizabeth. She did, however, look forward to after-training visits by Len Solei, Emma Solei's father, though she did not know why. Because of that, Madison also got to know Emma herself, and over time, the two began to treat each other like sisters. Madison did not know how much this bond between her and the Solei father and daughter duo would change her life for good.
Noticing at one point how Len began to walk past her with a zombie-like gaze, Madison sought out Len, wanting to know what was wrong. While at first Len would answer her with just "stress due to the Dezaras" or give her the silent treatment, Madison knew that there was more to it than the simple answers, especially based on the glazed look in his eyes. However, she would eventually learn the heart-breaking truth from Len, who could no longer hide the truth from the girl he eventually considered as his adopted daughter: That Emma had died upon the hands of the Dezaras. Feeling a sort of pain she never felt before, Madison tearfully hugged Len, unable to accept the loss of her dear "sister". Though unaware of Len's plans to clone his daughter, Emma's death did spark a flame that didn't exist in Madison's heart before -- a flame that compelled her to train harder to earn the mantle of Strike Yellow, if only to honor the memory of Emma.
Later on, Madison would learn about Len's project of cloning his daughter, which naturally overjoyed her. Despite that, however, Madison vowed to fight valiantly, so that no one will have to suffer losses like she did.
