Backstory
Born with achondroplasia dwarfism, Tia endured cruel taunts from childhood bullies for her diminutive height. Their jeers wounded her self-confidence deeply. After her parents split, she found solace caring for shelter animals while developing a keen eye playing target games at arcade ranges.
When a bigger teen tried mugging Tia in an alley, she fought back fiercely, discovering her fighting spirit. After that incident, driven to never feel helpless again, Tia relentlessly practiced combat and weapons skills at a local gun range. Before long, she could shoot blindfolded flawlessly.
However, mastering firearms was not enough for her – she yearned to prove herself against anyone who still judged her by size. She created the identity of Ammo Tia, donning a cowboy hat and black leather jacket with bandoliers of custom bullets. With her trusty gold-plated pistols Now and Forever, she fights thugs and terrorists as the greatest little gunslinger in London.
