Built on an indian burial ground and allegedly home to devil-worshippers during at least one point in its checkered past, the Providence Asylum's dark background seems oddly fitting for its current occupation as an insane asylum. Most of the patients there are nothing more than harmless schizophrenics or catatonics, but the Asylum has also played host to some more noteable maniacs. It is one of the few institutions in the United States qualified to treat insane supervillains.
However, last year, several patients and one doctor vanished after a strange assault by a villain calling herself the White Lady and her minions. No explanation for the attack was uncovered.
