Origin

Frank was a computer savvy high school student. She was concerned for the safety of an old friend, Bobbie, who she grew apart from. Bobbie had been messing around with drugs and anonymous internet trolls, both of which put her head in the wrong space. She was guzzling cough syrup to get high in order to see The Hatman, a devilish meme character similar to The Slender Man. Frank's personal investigation into Bobbie's disappearance went nowhere until Frank start guzzling cough syrup in order to see what Bobbie saw. Once high, Frank was attacked by The Hatman. Her friend, Dexter, tried to save Frank, but The Hatman smashed his head into a car window, killing him. Using a glass shard, Frank stabbed The Hatman in the neck, at which point, The Hatman turned into Bobbie, who forgave Frank and died. Ruby and Hawk of the Department of Truth were the first on scene. They helped her with a cover story and recruited her to the DOT, which was in dire need of a computer expert.
