Trish Hamilton was born in Holmes County, Ohio, as the third daughter of an Amish couple. When she was twelve, she saw her father hit her mother. She tried to stop, and received a blow herself. That was when she changed for the first time. When she came around, her father had been severely injured, and her mother and siblings was staring at her with fear in their eyes. That night, she ran away from home. For four years, she travelled the backroads of Ohio and Pennsylvania before arriving in New York. She left a trail of injured or dead would-be rapists behind her.
