History: (Muties#4 (fb) - BTS) - Her mutant abilities manifested when she was 13. Because of that her family immediately disowned her and made her leave her home.

(Muties#4) - As the bouncer of a disco in Rio de Janeiro she brought order into the nightly chaos. One night a brawl between two gangs broke out and she had to stop it.
A few weeks later she found Jisa crying on the street. She recognized her as one of Laolo's girls and talked to her for some time. They learned more about each others life and from this day on Nata accompanied Jisa to doctors, bought her food, clothes and generally helped her to get around in her new life. They lived together, became lovers and Nata was the first to feel the kicks of Jisa's unborn child. One night after leaving the club Nata worked in as bouncer, Laolo and his gang waited for her and Laolo demanded her money and Jisa. They attacked her with knives, baseball bats and steel pipes when she didn't give in to Laolo's demands, but she thought back.

SECRET WARS III HAPPENED

(Marauders Annual I#1 (fb) - BTS) - Renata moved to the mutant nation Krakoa where she started dating Tempo (Heather Tucker).

(Marauders Annual I#1) - Renata broke up with Heather after three months because Heather seemed to do her best to move everything in their relationship slowly. Heather at least sped up Renata's breakup speech and then quickly agreed to not waste each other's time and split up. Renata was surprised how fast Heather agreed.
