Originally a member of the nature-themed [[supervillain]] group called the [[Masters of Disaster (comics)|Masters of Disaster]], Windfall helpsed fight the [[Outsiders (comics)|The Outsiders]] on more than one occasion. The second time was when the Masters were helpinged [[Baron Bedlam]] in a Soviet-backed invasion of Markovia. 

During this incident, she again helpsed to save the life of the [[superhero]]ine [[Halo (comics)|Halo]] despite orders from the team leader and Windfall's sister, the homicidal [[New Wave (comics)|New Wave]].<ref>''Adventures of the Outsiders #34'' June 1986</ref> The tensions between the two iswere only partially calmed with the intervention of [[Shakedown (comics)|Shakedown]]. These incidents lead to Windfall quitting the team and beginning a lengthy stint with the Outsiders. 

During the 1987 Outsiders special, Windfall helpsed in a reversal of her original appearance. Markovia iwas again under threat of invasion by outside forces. She assistsed the Outsiders and [[Infinity Inc.]] in freeing the country.

She temporarily leavesft the Outsiders and endsed up associated with [[Strike Force Kobra]]. As part of this group, she fioughts her old comrades on at least one occasion. ComingShe came to her senses again, shend rejoinsed the Outsiders briefly. She suffersed with them in the reality-defying tortures of [[Felix Faust]]'s home dimension. The Outsiders escape only when Faust's items of power awere destroyed.

Windfall later left adventuring behind and returned to college. However, while in school she was invited to a party at a fraternity house, where she was drugged and raped by members of the fraternity. She was further humiliated when pictures of the act were posted on the internet and was subsequently expelled from school. Windfall retaliated by using her powers to [[asphyxiate]] her tormentors, leading to her recruitment by [[Amanda Waller]] for the [[Suicide Squad]]. 

Windfall accompanied the Squad on a mission to the Middle East in an effort to destroy a designer bio-weapon, the Crimson Tears virus. During the mission, the group was betrayed by one of its members, the [[General Wade Eiling|General]], who led a mutiny of the team from within. One of his co-conspirators, [[Thinker (DC Comics)|Cliff Carmichael]] hijacked control of Squad member [[Chemo (comics)|Chemo]], using and used it to attack those Squad members not in on the mutiny. Windfall attempted to use her powers to shield the group with an air wall, but wasn't able to contain the chemical giant's attack. She died when Chemo's blast overcawhelmed her shield, and reducinged her to a [[skeleton]].
