Atlas grew up in a distant country ravaged my Mavericks. Like many others she was orphaned at a young age due to the violence and began military training early as all able and willing bodies were needed to fight against the Mavericks. However, training from such a young age made her inclined to violence and indifferent to the weak. If you died, it was the result of your own weakness. She noticed that her country's people and technology advanced quickly as was necessary in war. Atlas developed the belief that constant warfare accelerated mankind's evolution from this observation. Eventually she left her hopeless country, determined not to rot away with the weaklings and was given Model F by Albert.
