Recognized by both Cerebro and the Massachusetts Academy's Multivac, Angelica Jones was only 13, living with her single father as the manifestation of her abilities and the bullying of her peers coincided, making her life miserable. Her father had neither support for nor understanding of why Angelica had begun radiating heat and affecting electromagnetic functions and frequencies around her. When approached by Emma Frost for the Massachusetts Academy, Bart Jones had little option but to agree to Angelica's boarding and education at the private school.

Working with Emma Frost to harness her abilities, Angelica was given the moniker of ***Firestar***. She remained unaware of the Hellfire Club's associations or intent within the private school for almost a year before Frost began manipulating the girl to her own ends. Isolated from her peers once more and with the White Queen interfering in her dreams, Angelica struggled further, her only companion a bodyguard assigned to her by the very woman who had taken her under her wing. Randall Chase, aware of Frost's intentions from the start, began worrying for the girl's health and safety, leading Frost to mark him for 'termination'. Although the man escaped, he sustained mortal wounds and died in Angelica's arms, his last words the truth of the White Queen's schemes. Outraged, Angelica destroyed the Academy's secret training center before flying away to reunite and reconcile with her father.

a few years after her hasty departure from the Massachusetts Academy, Angelica was approached by fellow teen heroes who were forming a new group - the **New Warriors**.
