Biography

Early life

According to Anatoly Knyazev, the Longbow Hunters were perceived as a myth. They consisted of only three assassins, but still, strike fear into all who went up against them including the League of Assassins, and were believed to have died out by the 1950s.[1]

Allying with Ricardo Diaz

Sometime in 2018, after becoming the leader of The Quadrant, Ricardo Diaz got in contact with the Longbow Hunters and they allied themselves with him.

Attack on Star City

Five months after Ricardo Diaz was forced into hiding, the Longbow Hunters broke in an off-site facility of A.R.G.U.S. where they stole prototype B-24, a high-density renewable battery able to power an entire town. The group later attempted to raid a train to steal an energy weapon that could be used combined with the B-24. John Diggle and a team of A.R.G.U.S. agents tried to stop them but they ambushed them and took out the agents. John was able to get to the weapon and escape, causing the Longbow Hunters to fail.[2]

The group later attempted a break in on CDC, a secure government facility to steal a bio compound. The Longbow Hunters encountered Samanda Watson, Dinah Drake and Ramirez who tried to stop them. After a fight, the group got the bio compound and escaped the facility, nut Silencer had ended up captured. Later, while debriefing the situation, she witnesses Diaz's transformation as he became a meta-human.[3]

Days later, they assist Diaz when trying to destroy the city with bombs. When the new Green Arrow interfered and helped to stop Diaz, she and the Longbow Hunters decided to leave the fight and she shot a dart that caused a small distraction to escape.[4]
