Neveah grew up on the street of Montenegro after being thrown out of her house by her biological parents when she came out as transgender at an early age. After facing constant homophobic attacks on the streets, she tried to commit suicide. Dr. Jovanovic, a scientist in stem cell research, saved her life, gave her a home, and became her new adoptive father. His treatments cause a mutation that allows her to manipulate her genetic code at will, giving her shapeshifting abilities.
