Fortuna is a member of Cauldron.

Background:

This section contains critical plot spoilers.

  As a child, Fortuna accidentally received a critical shard from an entity as it impacted her Earth, which let her see the future and, if possible, take the exact steps required to bring her desired future to pass. The power came with a vision of the entity's plan; to put a whole world in perpetual conflict, letting its powers mature and then consuming the world and all parallel worlds to continue its reproductive cycle. Using the power granted by the shard she began going through the complex motions required to ensure the death of the entity. The entity, realizing what she was trying to do, restricted her power, preventing it from being used against itself. She managed to partially get around this restriction by avoiding thinking directly about the entity. 

With the help of a woman who would later call herself 'the Doctor' she managed to stop the entity from killing her and reclaiming the critical shard. The Doctor, armed with a knife and directions both given by Fortuna, managed to stab the entity in a critical location, rendering it effectively brain dead. Fortuna realized that there was still another of these entities left somewhere and, together with the Doctor, formed Cauldron with the sole purpose of stopping this other entity. The entity's corpse was harvested by Cauldron for powers, which they tried to grant other people. Ashamed of the human experimentation she had to perform to improve the power formula and stop them from killing the subjects, she took the name Contessa to avoid shaming the name her parents gave her. 

As her powers were blind to the other entity due to the restriction the first one placed on it, she let the Doctor take a leadership role and make plans, letting her consider those plans without directly thinking about the entity, and thus giving her more freedom to use her powers. 

Personality:

[Coming Soon]

Appearance:

Contessa is described as an attractive woman of Italian descent around Danny Hebert's age with slightly longer than shoulder-length black hair between wavy and curly. Her outfit consists mainly of black suits tailor-made to fit her body.

Abilities and Powers:

Contessa's power supplies her with whatever steps she needs to take at the task she is visualizing whether its combat, psychological manipulation, or Cauldron's long-term plans. Unusually enough she lacks the common Thinker weakness of being cancelled out by other Thinkers. Certain beings such as Scion and Endbringers are immune to her ability, but even then she can still predict their actions by considering the situation as a hypothetical, though it is possible for them to surprise her.

She is so feared by other capes despite not even knowing her name that she's referred to simply as "her". When Weaver asks Prefab her classification, she's simply told, "Thinker. Don't worry about the number. Just run."

History:
