| Rose Wilson/Ravager Quick Bio: As long-lost daughter to Deathstroke the Terminator, Rose Wilson's ninja-like reflexes were enhanced by flashes of precognition, allowing her to see her opponent's next move. After mourning her mother's death and befriending the Titans, Rose's life was shattered when Deathstroke reclaimed his daughter and brainwashed her to become the new Ravager at his side. Rose has since broken free from her father and dispenses hard justice as the Ravager. |

| Wintergreen meets Rose Wilson and suspects Slade is her father in DEATHSTROKE #15 [1992]. |
|
A few years after his divorce from Adeline Kane, Slade Wilson - the mercenary known as Deathstroke, The Terminator - took a search-and-rescue mission under contract. Slade met Lillian "Sweet-Lili" Worth, an Oriental clan princess whose life fell in ruins after her kingdom was destroyed by a war in the Far East. It was Slade's mission to bring Lili from war-torn Cambodia to Thailand, where she would have relative freedom.
The mission was successful; During the journey, Slade and Lili became lovers as well. Slade and Lili remained in contact, embarking an an on/off love affair whenever their paths crossed. During one of their trysts, Slade impregnated Lili, who later gave birth to Rose Worth. Lili kept Rose a secret from Slade, rationalizing it was in the child's best interest to do so.
Lili eventually settled outside New York City, where she established a brothel and lived in luxury. Despite the environment, Rose was raised with other children her age and was schooled by private tutors. She not only received a happy childhood, but was also taught how to defend herself.

Secrets Revealed
When Slade was injured and on the lam from the law, Lili took him in and nursed his wounds. It was at this time that Wintergreen met 14-year-old Rose Worth and suspected Slade was her father.
Meanwhile, a new man assuming the identity of the Ravager (who was later revealed to be Slade's half-brother, Wade DeFarge) was hunting down Slade's friends and loved ones, killing his informant Maurice, and his tech supplier, Squirrel. Ravager also abducted Rose Worth when he discovered her connection to Slade. As Ravager tortured Rose, he also revealed to her that Slade Wilson was her father. Meanwhile, Wintergreen and Lili launched a rescue attempt. Eventually, Lili and Wintergreen reached their quarry in the snow-covered wilderness in the Adirondack Mountains. To save her daughter, Lili attempted to run over Ravager in a jeep – but her jeep careened off a cliff and exploded. Lili was presumed dead, but her body was never recovered. Wintergreen and Rose were able to elude Ravager and escaped.
The Daughter of Deathstroke
Now realizing that Slade Wilson was her father, Rose reached out to him. Slade, however, coldly rebuffed her; he thought it would be best if Rose had nothing to do with him, since he felt he brought about the death of both his sons. Fearing he would not be a good father, he left Rose primarily in the care of Wintergreen, who was prepared to adopt the girl. Slade, however, had already made arrangements with Sarge Steel to place her in protective custody with the Titans. Sarge Steel - who oversaw the group during this stage - saw potential in the young girl, although he also found her to be prone to violence and a bit unstable.

Titan Teammate
During her brief time on the team, Rose befriended some of the younger members of the team. During a training exercise with Damage, Rose was injured and almost fell into a coma. As Damage brought her to the hospital, her meta-gene powers kicked in. Rose had an extensive precognitive vision where she saw her father's future. She appeared as an astral form, witnessing her Deathstroke's future unfold – a future where he was caught in a never-ending drudge match with Hawkman. During this jaunt, Rose was able to project her astral form and inhabit the body of someone in the future, similar to her brother Jericho's ability. Before Rose could explore these abilities further, she recovered at the hospital – thus ending her dream vision.
Still reeling over the death of her mother, Rose became sullen and somewhat reckless. Fellow Titan Donna Troy tried to reach out to her, but Rose rejected her. Fellow Titan Impulse developed a crush on Rose but she was oblivious to his affections. Rose was not a Titan for very long; She eventually left the team to embark on her own. It is believed she stayed with her mother's friend.
Super Nanny
Rose Wilson later aided the Titans again during the Technis Imperative conflict, which involved the Justice League as well as all Titans, past and present. The two teams eventually worked together to save the earth and former Titans teammate, Victor Stone (Cyborg).
When the Titans later threw a surprise party for Donna Troy, Rose Wilson was in attendance. Roy Harper offered Rose a job as nanny to his daughter Lian. She accepted and served as Lian's nanny for a time.

Sometime later, Rose found a home with foster parents, Margaret and Mark Madison in Chicago. Her happiness was shattered when the third Ravager - Wade DeFarge - arrived and murdered the Madisons - then set his sights on Rose.
Deathstroke conveniently arrived to save his estranged daughter. Awakening later in his lair, Slade offered Rose a chance to erase their bad memories and replace them with better ones. To become his new apprentice as well as re-forge their father-daughter bond. Rose's first act as his new student is to slay the former Ravager, so she could become the new one.
Rose was unaware that Slade hired Wade DeFarge in the first place, in an attempt to push Rose towards him. Slade also pumped her full of the same serum that made him Deathstroke - inducing Rose into a state of psychosis. Formerly estranged from her father, Rose became his eager new student - and adopted the identity of The Ravager.
Rose's psychosis reached dangerous new levels as time passed. When she failed her father by hesitating to kill her brother, Jericho, Slade doubted her readiness. To show her loyalty, Rose gouged out her left eye to prove she is just like her father.
Ravager Redeemed
Since that time, Rose has broken free of her father's control with some help from Nightwing. After the serum ran its course, Rose returned to sanity and was granted membership in the Teen Titans at the request of Nightwing. Once a dangerous and unstable adversary, it may be some time before all her teammates fully trust her. While Rose initially clashed with Wonder Girl, she also found a trusted friend in new member, Kid Devil.

Rose's powers include limited precognitive abilities which may blossom into much more. She is sometimes able to use her precognitive abilities to 'see' her opponent's next moves, although her visions come and go. Rose is a skilled martial arts expert, with enhanced agility, speed, strength and endurance. She is also very skilled in the use of a bo staff.
In one instance, was able to have an extensive precognitive vision where she saw her father's (Deathstroke's) future. During this jaunt, Rose was able to project her astral form and inhabit the body of someone in the future (similar to her brother Jericho's ability).

The Premise

A 2003 commission of Rose Wilson by
DEATHSTROKE artist, Sergio Cariello.

 |
| A 2006 commission of Rose Wilson as Ravager by George Pérez.
|
The Titans were pressured to place themselves under the government's watchful eye, due to increased public scrutiny [NEW TITANS #93-114]. Sarge Steel was their chief liaison, and Nightwing stepped down as leader and allowed Arsenal to take command. Arsenal led this new group of Titans [NEW TITANS #114], and was consistently challenged by the burdens of leadership. Many members left, but new faces emerged as well. Arsenal's team consisted of Darkstar (Donna Troy), Green Lantern, Supergirl, Damage, Mirage, Terra II, Minion, Impulse and Rose Wilson. Eventually, each members' dedication to the team began to waver, and the team disbanded.
The series lacked some focus, as team members were introduced, then not used, then reintroduced into the series.
"The Titans have had a series of problems in the past year," says Titans writer Marv Wolfman. 'They lost a number of members. They were sued by the government and people generally hated them. Finally, their leader Dick Grayson - Nightwing - left them."
Left in such disarray, the road to rebirth has been a long one. "Even before Zero Hour, Ray Harper, once known as Speedy and more recently known as Arsenal, was approached by Checkmate's leader, Sarge Steel, to align the Titans with the government," Wolfman says. "It seems that the JLA has broken ties with the government and Checkmate wanted a new superhero team to replace them. After going over the problems and being assured [his team] will have complete autonomy, Roy agreed to sign with Checkmate.
"Trouble is, he had no members to go with him. On his own and with Sarge Steel, new members are found recruited and a brand new Titans is formed." Wolfman reports that this new group will have a slightly different focus than past Titans teams. "Long ago, when the Titans were first created, the team featured already-existent heroes. In many ways we are going back to that original premise," be maintains. "Arsenal leads a group consisting of Damage, Green Lantern and Impulse, characters who either have their own titles, or in Impulse's case, is featured in Flash. Also in the New Titans are Mirage and Terra from the now-defunct Team Titans. Finally, rounding out the title is Donna Troy, now a Darkstar. So we're bringing in characters from other books as well as several already-known Titans.
"Interestingly, all the heroes mentioned are in one way or another orphans whose past lives are shrouded in mystery," he continues. "Where the last Titans team came together to fight Raven's demonical father, Trigon, the new team comes and stays together because they are all in a similar situation. The Titans is a place for these people to get together, to find themselves, to be with others like themselves. They are not coming together to fight some great battle, but to understand themselves and to grow. This common need will allow them to become close and eventually became friends.
"So the role of the New Titans is a club for the young DC heroes, a way of getting together with their peers, a place where they can be with their own kind and learn from each other as they grow."
"The book has gone under a lot of changes in the past few years, but all were evolutionary," Wolfman says. "Heroes died, new heroes replaced them, tempers flared and, because they were young, mistakes were often made. That is the way life is. But now we begin with a new group. A revolution, so to speak. New heroes, all with their own lives, hopes and desires. This allows us to create a very different kind of Titans book."
The Commentary
The Arsenal-led Titans didn't last too long [from NEW TITANS #115-130]. Sales on the book had slid, and many readers had already left the book. When the series was canceled in 1995 with #130, the Titans team was still active, although with some members having left. It wasn't until TITANS SECRET FILES #1 that we saw the final dissolution of the team.
The team had potential. Check out NEW TITANS #126 and NEW TITANS ANNUAL #11 to see what the team might have been.

Rose's Role in Arsenal's Team
The Set-Up
 |
| A 2004 convention sketch of Rose as Ravager by Mike McKone. |
Rose Wilson has one of the shortest Titans' memberships on record. She was officially a member of the group from only New Titans #122-126. Not only that, but in New Titans #124-125 the Titans had an adventure in space that didn't include Rose. The only interaction Rose has with her Titans team mates is seen in New Titans #122 [Green Lantern and Minion], Deathstroke Annual #4 [Arsenal], Deathstroke #51 [Damage] and New Titans #126 [where the team held a surprise training exercise].
Rose's Titans Membership:
Deathstroke #48
New Titans #122
Deathstroke Annual #4
Deathstroke #51
New Titans #123-126
Deathstroke #55
The prelude to her membership could be seen in Deathstroke #42-47. Ravager abducted Rose Worth when he discovered her connection to Slade. As Ravager tortured Rose, he also revealed to her that Slade Wilson was her father. Wintergreen and Rose's mother, Lili, launched a rescue attempt. Eventually, Lili and Wintergreen reached their quarry in the snow-covered wilderness. To save her daughter, Lili attempted to run over Ravager in a jeep – and her jeep careened off a cliff and exploded. Lili was presumed dead, but her body was never recovered. Wintergreen and Rose were able to elude Ravager and escaped.
The Membership
In Deathstroke #48, Rose Wilson confronts Slade and blames him for her mother's death. Slade, however, coldly rebuffed her; he thought it would be best if Rose had nothing to do with him, since he felt he brought about the death of both his sons. Fearing he would not be a good father, he eventually left Rose primarily in the care of Wintergreen, who was prepared to adopt the girl. Slade, however, had already made arrangements with Sarge Steel to place her in protective custody with the Titans. Sarge Steel (who oversaw the group during this stage) saw potential in the young girl, although he also found her to be quite a little hellion.
In New Titans #122, Sarge Steel introduces Rose to her new Titans team mates, Green Lantern and Minion. Her response: "I told you before you pompous jerk, i don't wanna be here! I don't like heroes and I ain't about to stick around to become their official mascot either."

Rose's next appearance as a Titan is in Deathstroke Annual #4, in a back-up story. Rose is still unhappy with her situation. Arsenal tells her she can't leave and must stay at Titans Headquarters. Rose is infuriated, so much so, she can't sleep. She sneaks out and runs across some street thugs. They tease her and she beats the living crap out of them [Lili's friends taught her how to protect herself]. The story ends with Sarge Steel wondering: Would the Titans be protecting Rose or protecting others FROM Rose?
In New Titans #123, Rose doesn't appear at all, as Minion recounts his origin.
Deathstroke #51 gave a glimpse of Rose's meta-human abilities. During her brief time on the team, Rose befriended some of the younger members of the team. During a training exercise with Damage, Rose was injured and almost fell into a coma. As Damage brought her to the hospital, her meta-gene powers kicked in. Rose had an extensive precognitive vision where she saw her father's (Deathstroke's) future. She appeared as an astral form, witnessing her father's future unfold – a future where Deathstroke was caught in a never-ending drudge match with Hawkman. During this jaunt, Rose was able to project her astral form and inhabit the body of someone in the future (similar to her brother Jericho's ability). Before she could explore these abilities further, she recovered at the hospital – thus ending her dream vision.
In New Titans #124, Rose is seen briefly. Donna Troy's Darkstar coordinator, Annie Bonelli, and her two sons are staying at the Titans headquarters as Donna's guests. Rose is seen playing a video game with the two boys. Meanwhile, the Titans embark on a space mission, "the Siege of Zi Charram."
In New Titans #125, the Titans are still in space. In the opening page [in a story thread continued from DARKSTARS], Annie Bonelli's kids are threatened by her abusive ex-husband. Rose gets the drop on him and holds him at gunpoint. Annie worries about the girl's emotional stability and wishes the Titans would come back.
New Titans #126 features Rose's best issue as a Titans member, and the only issue where she interacts with the team! A great character issue, the Titans play some fun wargames. Impulse confides in Arsenal that he has a crush on Rose, but she doesn't even notice him. During the war games, Rose expresses a physical attraction to Kyle Rayner ["Oh, the things I could do to him" she muses]. When Donna over-reacts concerning Rose's safety, Rose rebuffs her, crying: "I had a mother, you aren't her. And no one can replace her." She storms off, as Impulse unsuccessfully tries to comfort her.
The end of Rose's membership is detailed in Deathstroke #55. Slade has now been reborn as a young man with no memories; Rose visits Slade in the hospital to inform him she is leaving him and the Titans to live with a friend of her mother's; Sarge Steel objects, but Rose nonetheless leaves the Titans and her father.
The Missed Opportunities
By the time Deathstroke #55 was written, the last arc of the New Titans [#127-130] was being crafted. Rose might have been written out of the Titans to use her elsewhere.
From 1995: "Also the character that we call the Daughter of Deathstroke, who has been in the background for about a year and a half now, will really come to play at the end of 'The Hunted' story line. It's pretty much about her. We're also doing three issues that will feature a back-up story that stars Wintergreen and the Daughter of Deathstroke."
Titans and Deathstroke editor Pat Garrahy saw potential in Rose Wilson. At a New York convention in 1995, he expressed an interest in spinning off Rose into her own series as the Daughter of Deathstroke. He also detailed the nature of her powers was based on adrenaline. The more adrenaline, the more enhanced her meta-human powers would manifest. So in Deathstroke #51, her fever dream was a result of the increased adrenaline of the shock she was in. He envisioned her as an expert fighter, able to use her precognitive abilities to 'see' her opponent's next moves.

"You call this the Titans? Since Superboy died, the Titans have gone through over twenty new members. But no one wanted to stay very long. No one got along."
- Wonder Girl (Teen Titans (third series) #36 [2006])
DC's "One Year Later" event occurred March of 2006. In Teen Titans #33, Superboy and Nightwing are in the thick of the Infinite Crisis world-shattering event.
