She kept her hair in a ponytail.

After bonding with [[Ghede Nibo|the Symbiote]], she took to letting her hair down completely. She often used the symbiote itself as a costume, with it taking the form of a rubbery-looking all-black outfit, plus a pair of black earrings — with the only “real” item of clothing she wore being a pair of black boots. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Symbiote Surprise (comic story)|Symbiote Surprise]]'') However, she could shift the degree to which the Symbiote's true nature was visible, from making her eyes turn all-black to letting the symbiote fully “hulk out” her body into a monstrous, muscular form with long claws, a large, toothy mouth, and pupil-less white eyes.

When in control of herself, Kate was a benevolent individual with a fun-loving, party-going attitude and a quick wit. She was interested in women, as evidenced by her falling in love (and lust) with [[Centennia]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Symbiote Surprise (comic story)|Symbiote Surprise]]'') However, she evidenced a lack of deeper understanding of her friends. According to [[Ghede Nibo|the Symbiote]], even before it came along, her “good girl” persona was an act she put on, and she also concealed darker desires and impulses within her mind.

She liked to think of herself as a “girly girl” despite some evidence to the contrary. One account listed her likes as “shopping, reality television, tea, walks on the beach, romance novels”, [[Rachel McAdams]], [[Ryan Gosling]], [[Tom Hiddleston]] and [[Benedict Cumberbatch]]”, and her dislikes as coffee, the movie ''[[The Notebook]]'', “loud and obnoxious people”, and shaving her legs. | |||
She was deeply loyal to her friends, and terrified of losing control and hurting them, as would eventually occur; as a child, she tended to use her physical strength to stick up for other victims of bullying. In her natural state, she was “mild-mannered”, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Kate Five Bio (short story)|Kate Five Bio]]'') though her behaviour would become much more uninhibited under the Symbiote's influence.

These included general superstrength and durability, though she was still vulnerable to psionic, electric and poison-based attacks. She had a pair of gloves inset with [[power crystal]]s through which she could channel the whole of her power in a single punch. She was not formally trained as a physical fighter besides some notions of karate, tending towards more instinctive forms of physical fighting.

After bonding with the Symbiote, Kate's superhuman strength and resilience allowed her to go toe-to-toe with [[Centennia]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Symbiote Surprise (comic story)|Symbiote Surprise]]'') and the fangs and claws she could grow were sufficient to maul even an experienced superhero to death if caught by surprise. However, she could still be hurt by sufficiently strong, skillful blows. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1 (comic story)|Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1]]'') | |||

Katherine Jones grew up as a normal, if unusually athletic girl in a lower-class milieu. In school, she had trouble fitting in with either the “smart girls” or the “sports girls”, due to excelling both academically and athletically. She used her strength to protect other bullying victims, an early show of moral character. After finishing high school, she went to university, unlike most of the other girls in her school. She was noticed by [[Project Five]], a top-secret government project to pick up unusually talented students and give them superpowers. They imbued her with superstrength and durability, and gave her gloves inset with [[power crystal]]s through which to channel her strength more effectively. It was then that the new and improved Katherine began to go by the code-name of “Kate Five” in reference to the Project. Although she assumed the Project had given similar gifts to four others, she never actually encountered them during her time at Project Five. | |||
After Project Five went under due to funding cuts, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Kate Five Bio (short story)|Kate Five Bio]]'') she was recruited as a superhero within [[Section P]], the [[British Ministry of Defence]]'s superhero outfit. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1 (comic story)|Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Kate Five Bio (short story)|Kate Five Bio]]'') | |||
In Section P, she developed a friendship with her fellow Section P member [[Battle Angel]], alias Taki, and even developed a crush on her, to which she never dared to give voice. She also failed to ask Taki about her past, something she would later regret. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1 (comic story)|Kate Five vs Symbiote - Chapter 1]]'') | |||
