Biography[]
Patriot[]
She was formerly Lieutenant General Slade Wilson's aide. Trotter attended a meeting with Slade and several other key military officers that discussed the Vigilante Registration Act. Slade proclaimed that the country's safety depended on it and the President put him directly in charge of overseeing the bill's execution.
After Oliver Queen registered with the Act, he was taken to a holding facility that housed captured super-powered beings regarded as vigilantes. He was put through a physical regimen, testing his skills and strengths.
Trotter aided Slade who managed to capture Oliver and Aquaman as well. The facility was destroyed and the heroes were freed with Slade vanishing in the explosion, but having survived due to his connection to the Darkness, but lost an eye.
Icarus[]
After General Slade's disappearance, Lieutenant Trotter apparently became head of a DDS strike team operation. First they tightened security at the Daily Planet and everyone had to go through metal detectors and searches. Tess Mercer was having lunch when she was confronted by Cat Grant for not running the story about Oliver and the VRA, but Tess dismissed her. A government agent then arrived to bring Tess in for questioning about the vigilantes. After reading a government ad demanding information about heroes, Lois Lane walked into an elevator at the Daily Planet.
Lieutenant Trotter confronted her and brought her in for questioning. Trotter interrogated Emil Hamilton, Lois, and Tess separately at the Daily Planet, but none of them gave her answers she was looking for, much to her frustration. Since they wouldn't give up any information, Trotter planned to take Tess and Emil to a warehouse to continue being interrogated, or presumably to be executed, but they were saved by Clark Kent.
Collateral[]
After the Justice League attended Hawkman's funeral in Egypt, they were rendered unconscious when a mysterious white pyramid object arose and flashed a blinding light throughout the room. The Vigilante Registration Agency captured The Blur, Black Canary, Green Arrow, Stargirl, Impulse, Aquaman, and Lois Lane at the funeral of Hawkman in Egypt and placed them in a virtual dream world while they tried to find out how their special abilities could be controlled.
They awoke in the "reality" wondering why they had not powers and how they got free. Chloe Sullivan entered the virtual reality as an avatar and went to them one by one explaining that the world was fake. Trotter and the task force were four clicks away from their headquarters when she ordered them to move in. Chloe was working at the computers when the VRA breaks in and Trotter knocks her out.
She had one of her men take over Chloe's avatar. It goes to the Planet as Clark and Lois prepare to jump into the portal. It goes to the Planet as Clark and Lois prepare to jump into the portal and Trotter left the place with a tie-hand Chloe. Outside she gave the order to kill Chloe. However she was rescued by Oliver and the Suicide Squad, with Deadshot firing at Trotter's men.
Trotter was confronted by Black Canary and the two women engaged in battle. Canary avoided Trotter's fire but Dinah won the fight until she ran out of ammo because she defended herself well against Trotter who then knocked her out with her Canary Cry. It was later revealed that Trotter and her men were trapped in the virtual reality, ensuring she could not expose Clark's secret identity.
