Biography
Rue Birling is an eccentric wealthy heiress who collected oddities and managed a large fortune for her family’s trust. When Rue offered Kitty a job handling the family’s private collections of art and artifacts, Kitty took it gratefully, using the excuse to move to the west coast and dive into a job that would let her bury herself in work that didn’t matter. Old, dusty objects felt good after months of dealing with people and lawyers (and yes, she does think of them separately).
The Birlings, however, were unusual in themselves. Some of the objects she found in their archives had interesting histories behind them, gotten in illicit ways or with mysterious stories attached. From time to time, Rue would send her on a hunt for one thing or another. Kitty tried not to think too much about the legalities of her dealings because, after years of the “normal” life she had craved, this was an adventure and one that she loved.
Once Kitty returned to the mansion, she attempted to cut ties with that part of her life. Rue, however, was not so easily discarded, contacting Kitty in August 2015 in order to request she obtain for her an unusual ancient mechanism. While Kitty did acquire the Atlantean device for her, she did not deliver the item as agreed, instead giving it to its rightful owner, Namor.
