| history = Meredith Gordon grew up on a farm in rural Arkansas. When she was only two years old, her mother died from complications during childbirth, although the baby, her younger brother Flint Gordon Jr. (see case file C3013) survived. When Meredith was eight her father was killed in a blaze which engulfed her home; the cause of the fire is unknown but may have been caused by one of the Gordons, both of whom manifested pyrokinetic abilities. It should be noted that it is unlikely Flint manifested his ability at this time. Meredith was separated from her brother and lived in at least nine foster families in various states (TX, OK, AR, AL), each time rejecting the attempts of anyone who tried to show her affection. Instead, Meredith became increasingly obsessed with finding her brother, whom she had had no contact with. |

DeMille was profoundly affected when his eldest brother was killed while serving in Iraq. Later, his troubled younger half-brother, Jesse, joined the military as well but was discharged during boot camp and was soon picked up the first of what would be a long series of misdemeanor and felony arrests. DeMille was an early accomplice in many of Jesse's infractions but their paths diverged when DeMille made his first breakthrough as a DJ. |

At the age of eighteen Meredith finally found her brother again, but he had changed with the passage of time and Meredith found herself unable to connect with him. Disenchanted, Meredith began searching for fulfillment in a variety of other men. At this time Meredith came to the attention of the Company, and was targeted for a bag and tag operation. Unfortunately, complications arose in the operation due to capabilities agents did not believe Meredith was capable of, and she was detained instead. |

According to an early interview with his local newspaper, DeMille's self-described passion for DJing stemmed from a belief that music empowers humans on a subconscious level, increasing social potential and communication awareness. At one point, he described music as a way to hide as well as a way to get along. Apparently still unaware of his post-human abilities, DeMille began to travel extensively to explore various cultures and their music traditions, and as a result, became increasingly known in club circles for both educating and entertaining his audiences through his unique, eclectic musical choices. |

Her social outlook is a paradox in that she considers others usually untrustworthy, and yet has consistently rejected attempts by others throughout her life to befriend her or even show her kindness. The subject has never held a legitimate job and is fundamentally self-serving, with somewhat relaxed moral values - she is willing to hurt others for her own gain, but draws the line at killing, unlike her brother.<BR> |

For the past ten years, DeMille has lived in Los Angeles, a city that he calls home. He recently purchased a house with his girlfriend, Gina, using funds saved over the course of several years. |

The subject's extensive travels have instilled in her a certain sort of 'street savvy' which has made her very difficult to pin down and apprehend. She speaks Spanish and French fluently and is believed to have strong allies in Mexico in particular. She has repeatedly proven herself to be a very mobile individual, capable of abandoning everything and starting over somewhere else, usually leaving a house fire in her wake. These signature blazes are the subject's calling card, and agents assigned to her case should be advised to always be on the lookout for them. |

| psych = Despite - and possibly also in reaction to - his abilities, the subject considers himself a man of the people, quietly working as a mailman and moonlighting as a DJ. His personal correspondence and intimate conversations contain a high frequency of language regarding his loyalty to friends and loved ones. |

However, the subject perceives his decision to hide his power of sound manipulation from his romantic partner to be a marked departure from his internal values. As a result, he has been experiencing a significant amount of cognitive dissonance, exacerbated by the subject's overall psychological inflexibility as a result of his father's strict upbringing. This cognitive dissonance has caused the subject to acknowledge for the first time that he may actually be repressing knowledge of his power's true limits to avoid moral conflicts. |

Another outcome of the subject's psychological inflexibility is a high resistance to traditional psychoanalysis and interrogation techniques. Recent observation proves that, despite his conscious moral resistance, the subject instinctively taps his powers to defend himself when threatened, particularly in a context where his core values are at stake, such as his loyalty to his friends. This aggressive response has been aggravated by his recent encounters with the Company, by which he judges himself to have been "wronged," a term which resonates deeply in the subject's psyche. |

DeMille was profoundly affected when his eldest brother was killed while serving in Iraq. Later, his troubled younger half-brother, Jesse, joined the military as well but was discharged during boot camp and was soon picked up the first of what would be a long series of misdemeanor and felony arrests. DeMille was an early accomplice in many of Jesse's infractions but their paths diverged when DeMille made his first breakthrough as a DJ.
According to an early interview with his local newspaper, DeMille's self-described passion for DJing stemmed from a belief that music empowers humans on a subconscious level, increasing social potential and communication awareness. At one point, he described music as a way to hide as well as a way to get along. Apparently still unaware of his post-human abilities, DeMille began to travel extensively to explore various cultures and their music traditions, and as a result, became increasingly known in club circles for both educating and entertaining his audiences through his unique, eclectic musical choices.
At the height of his success as a professional DJ, DeMille decided to become a mailman. He explained his choice by saying that he wanted the opportunity to serve his community and he had long admired the consistency of the mail carrier to deliver 'rain or shine.' Shortly after joining the Postal Service, DeMille's power began to manifest.
A sound manipulator, Echo can mimic and distort noise, replicate frequencies, and create sonic blasts of devastating proportions. DeMille has noticed that his ability to manipulate sound increases greatly when his fight-or-flight reflex is engaged. He seems to regard his ability to manipulate sound in all its forms as both a blessing and a curse, and he actively continues to explore the extent of his power.
For the past ten years, DeMille has lived in Los Angeles, a city that he calls home. He recently purchased a house with his girlfriend, Gina, using funds saved over the course of several years.
However, the subject perceives his decision to hide his power of sound manipulation from his romantic partner to be a marked departure from his internal values. As a result, he has been experiencing a significant amount of cognitive dissonance, exacerbated by the subject's overall psychological inflexibility as a result of his father's strict upbringing. This cognitive dissonance has caused the subject to acknowledge for the first time that he may actually be repressing knowledge of his power's true limits to avoid moral conflicts.
Another outcome of the subject's psychological inflexibility is a high resistance to traditional psychoanalysis and interrogation techniques. Recent observation proves that, despite his conscious moral resistance, the subject instinctively taps his powers to defend himself when threatened, particularly in a context where his core values are at stake, such as his loyalty to his friends. This aggressive response has been aggravated by his recent encounters with the Company, by which he judges himself to have been "wronged," a term which resonates deeply in the subject's psyche.
This combination of factors indicates that a high level of caution should be exercised in dealing with this subject.
