Eden was one of many who triggered in the wake of Leviathan's attack on Seattle. During the chaos that occurred in the city following the attack, Eden eventually met up with three others who had also gained powers and formed a small vigilante group in order to help protect supplies from the villains in the city as well as attempt to keep some semblance of order.

She eventually became friends with her fellow vigilantes, something that caused much grief when eventually the Protectorate managed to get the city in working order once again. When her team split up when one wanted to retire from cape life after the city was back in working order, another joined the Protectorate, and one was murdered by a villain. Eden continued working as a vigilante, as she didn't want to fully commit to the Protectorate and liked not being constrained by their rules.

It wasn't until her father developed a pretty nasty case of bone cancer that normal hospitals couldn't really help him with. It turned out to be cheaper and easier to move across the country and become a citizen of Brockton Bay to get help from Panacea than it would be to undergo chemotherapy in Seattle.

And she decided to move to stick with her parents, with them having convinced her that a fresh start in a new city would be good for her. She listened to them and attempted to start her vigilante practices in Brockton Bay which was made easier due to the city having many villains.

Her powers allow her to absorb paper and manipulate its shape, and density. She can only really absorb about her weight in paper which is less than you might think. But she's also capable of holding it against herself quite easily possibly giving her greatest defense which is an ablative armor of paper on the outside of her body that she can continually replace with spare paper. It's frankly tougher than it has any right to be after she compacts it till its nearly wood again and doesn't really seem to need to worry about the weight of all that paper. She's also capable of creating rudimentary camouflage by changing the color of the paper around her to match her surroundings. Not perfect but good for surprising people in the dark.

Outside of her vigilante work she works as a freelance artist selling high quality origami sculptures set in clear resin cubes. It's actually fairly popular and she can make quite a few with her power allowing her to sell a lot of them as collectables. She tends to give unique cubes to people that she likes as gifts.
