Editing Rachel Lindt (section)

==Trivia==
*There are inconsistent sources on the age Rachel was when she triggered, twelve or fourteen. It should be pointed out that Rachel herself did not really keep track of her age.<ref name="SB3">Rachel is roughly the same age [as Tattletale, who is ~16]. Age is questionable, she never really kept track. - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/17584328/ Excerpt from a email from Wildbow], archived on Spacebattles.</ref>
* Had the Protectorate successfully connected with Rachel following her trigger event she would have been given therapy and been placed into the [[Boston]] [[Wards]]. Like [[Flechette]], as an orphan Rachel would have been able to be passed around departments that needed help to handle crises, like when the [[ABB]] started their insurgency.<ref name="SB4">Or, simplifying it, Bitch gets caught earlier on, pre-Undersiders. She gets therapy, her problems are identified and handled, and she winds up on the side of light. A member of the Boston Wards. When the ABB start going nuts in Brockton Bay, she's among the heroes that volunteer to head into town (helped by the fact that she doesn't have guardians nailing her down in one place, as is the case with many Wards).<br /><br />The Undersiders probably have another heavy hitter - and Trainwreck is one option for Coil to slot into the team. Über (with Leet joining as a matter of course) would be another.<br /><br />Butterfly effect at work.

Houndmaster? Kennel Kid! She has the catchphrase "Pawsome". - [https://forums.spacebattles.com/posts/35113084 Comment on Spacebattles] by Wildbow</ref>
*A prototype of Rachel first appeared in [[Circus and the Elite]], where she was independent rather than attached to the Undersiders, who were conceptualized.<ref name="16.8c1">Fun fact. Parian’s first real adventure was a Circus-centric story where ‘The Elite’, a villainous organized-crime enterprise including The Number Man, ‘Mother’ (Bonesaw), Contessa, Winter and one or two others. First story Bitch appeared in, as a side bit. These guys are taking over the Eastern seaboard with a ‘join or die’ approach and they hit town, forcing the local solo villains & rogues to band together. Not wanting to group too closely together, the local villains form into small groups, and Parian and Circus form a duo. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2012/12/18/monarch-16-8/#comment-7992 Comment by Wildbow] on [[Monarch 16.8]]</ref>
