Upon seeing her family in trouble, Powder set off a handmade bomb, powered by Hextech crystals. This led to her being sad and crying in her room until she discovers the stolen Hextech crystals' destructive potential and goes to Vander's location. The children decided to rescue Vander, but Vi told Powder to remain home. Zaunite crime lord Silco attacked the Enforcers and kidnapped Vander in order to both take revenge on Vander for betraying him years before and to accrue power. To shield his adopted children, Vander claimed responsibility and allowed himself to be arrested. The four would-be thieves inadvertently lead the Enforcers back to the Zaunite slum known as The Lanes. This alerted the Piltover Enforcers which lead to a chase through the city. Powder mishandled unrefined Hextech crystals, leading to an explosion that seriously damaged the building. Life in the undercity was difficult, but Powder was able to stay out of trouble until she Vi, Mylo, and fellow adoptee Claggor decided to break into the Piltover apartment of Jayce Talis in order to carry out a burglary.

Powder was always teased by her adopted brother Mylo due to her clumsiness, and was always defended by Vi. Seeing the girls in distress, Zaunite defender Vander abandoned the battle to keep them safe, taking them away to Zaun. At a young age, then-Powder and her sister Vi were orphaned during a battle between Piltover and the people of Zaun.
