==Hystory==

The grandson of [[Smallwood Gladys|Gladys]] and [[Smallwood Tom|Tom Smallwood]], they raised him from a very young age. His grandfather, while at sea, discovered a strange egg and when [[Smallwood Gladys|Gladys]] broke it open, there was a tiny infant female in it. While she may have been physically different then most, [[Marrina]], as she was named, was welcomed into the Smallwood family and she and Dan grew very close. She matured at an accelerated rate. She and Dan were close friends and when she displayed her superhuman powers, it was he who suggested she report herself to the [[Ministry of Defence]]. Unknown to most Dan felt a love for her more than that of a boy for his childhood friend, but [[Marrina]] married another, [[Sub-Mariner|Namor]].
