Elgera Douglas (“El Gera” is Spanish for “the blonde one”) was secretly the masked outlaw with her formidable gun skills called Senorita Scorpion. She is one of three children, the only girl, and not the oldest but still the uncontested leader of her family since her father, John Douglas, was in a coma.

She was descended from George Douglas, a British-born slave originally captured from an English ship in the Caribbean, and a Mexican Indian slave woman who founded the Douglas clan. The clan would over the next two centuries grow up in the valley of the Dead Horse Mountains where a gold mine was discovered in 1681 by Don Simeon Santiago. However after a fatal raid from the Comanche, who killed everyone they could find and sealed off entrance or egress to the valley by caving in the mine tunnel, leaving the only two survivors, Elgera's ancestor's. In 1876, the clan succeeded in digging through the mine and re-uniting with the rest of the world, though they kept the location of their valley secret.

By 1891, her family's lands are sought by the greedy cattle baron Anse Hawkman. So She became an outlaw, as the law defines it, in order to strike back at Hawkman and his interests.
