Kestrel was a gifted gymnast who was invited to take part in the USA Gymnastics Women's National Team Training Camp. Unfortunately, when she and another girl were trying to break into a snack machine, Kestrel's heat-absorption powers manifested, injuring the other girl. Kestrel was sent home to New Orleans in disgrace. Back home, she soon fell in with a bad crowd. It was during a robbery that went horribly wrong that Kestrel's heat-absorption powers manifested again. Kestrel instinctively used her powers against her best friend in order to save a shopkeeper's life. Kestrel and the rest of her gang fled; Kestrel assumed that she had killed her friend. She swore from that day that she would use her powers responsibly, and make up for the harm she had caused.

Zero K is capable of draining the heat from the world around her. She can selectively drain the heat from the atmosphere or her opponents, resulting in a variety of cold-based effects: a rain of razor-sharp icicles, an obscuring snowstorm, a wall of ice, and so on. She is virtually immune to any heat-based attacks, but her powers are dependent on there being existing heat for her to absorb: the colder the ambient temperature is (not including effects that she herself creates), the less potent her powers are.
