Bio:

Gypsy Mae, also known by her alias The Cat, is an orphan who learned to survive on New York'ss streets. She took to thievery to survive, but was determined to do it in her own style. She learned martial arts and trained extensively to perfect her own skills at cat burglary. Her criminal activities are often tempered by a reluctant altruism, making her an inconstant villain and occasional heroine. She steals objects with feline names or motifs. She regularly eludes capture by the Avengers, and maintains a complicated, adversarial relationship with Hawkeye that frequently turns flirtatious and occasionally romantic. Over the years, their relationship developed to become increasingly reliable allies.

Despite the constant crime and danger that grips New York City, the seemingly very wealthy Gypsy fights for the rights of animals everywhere.

A $10,000 investment at a charity dinner bought her a date with the Avenger, Clint Barton, who became attracted to her immediately.

Meanwhile, as a cat-burglar, she ran through New York, stealing precious items of value, such as jewels. The Cat's crimes were quick and efficient... until Hawkeye intervened. Though he failed to catch the thief, The Cat was impressed, and quickly became infatuated with him.

"It's easy, just take your loot and leave the city. You'll never forgive yourself, Gypsy; help Hawkeye, then escape. (Scoff) It's Hawkeye; it's not like's he's going to die. (Sigh) When did you develop a conscience? See what I give up for you? You'd better not be dead already." - The Cat debating over helping Hawkeye

Personality

The Cat is a woman who is defined by pride and temptation. Being a high-profile burglar, she is skilled in espionage, so she is able to keep herself from being known. She also has a high interest for jewellery, particularly that of high value and rarity.

The Cat is often displayed as the embodiment of attraction and a pinnacle of dominating superiority, specifically over men. She isn't afraid to make suggestive comments and frequently flirts with Hawkeye on numerous occasions. She also seems to be aware of her appearance and sometimes makes use of it.

The Cat also stands between the boundaries of an occasional hero and villain: she only plays the role of a hero whenever necessary and doesn't show much of a villainous ego.
