Ileana Patani

Ileana Patani, also known as Metallicana, is a Syndicate Member on the Brooklyn Team.

History
Ileana Patani is a New York native born with the ability to control metal. As a child, she kept the power a secret but it became more powerful as she became a teen. Metallic objects would fly towards her, getting stuck on her like a magnet.

Her childhood best friend, Criss Geco, convinced her to take advantage of her powers and become a superhero. She became Metallicana, named by Criss who believed a heavy metal person suited her.

She was accepted as a Junior level hero at the age of 16 and was allowed onto the Brooklyn Team part-time. After proving her skills, she was promoted to a regular syndicate member and became a well known hero.

Near the end of high school, Ileana and Criss began to date and continued that relationship for many years after. Eventually, Criss became publicly exposed as Metallicana's boyfriend, but this had little negative impact on his life. The two happily share an apartment together and are in a committed monogamous relationship.

In her identity as Ileana Patani, Ileana works as a journalist for a news website New York Post. She is hard working in both her job as a hero and a writer, and is not always on call as a hero because of her second job.
