Origin

After the Unknown War ruined the United States, the St. Louis Strays were brought together by human traffickers. They were being taken to St. Louis when they were rescued by Ash Arden, the Glowing Woman. They stuck with Ash to rescue the orphans already being held in St. Louis. After the traffickers were defeated, Ash gifted their weapons to the orphans and taught them how to use them.
