Annie Detroit
Like all children born in the murder capital of the US, Detroit, Annie was given an Kevlar injection shortly after she was born and has naturally bulletproof skin. Running away from home at the age of 3, she snuck across the border into Canada and was raised in the Yukon by an Inuit/Ninja family. Once grown, she would return to the States and take on a career as an undercover spy for an organization so secret that the name of said organization cannot be divulged. While no man has been able to pierce the steel skin to Annie’s heart, she was raised to respect hockey’s greatest figures, and holds particular esteem for Detroit’s Steve Yzerman. She will write about baseball, hockey, and food.
