It seems the truth is, she lacked the spiritual dignity to become an Immortal, and fearing for her life instead chose to become augmented into a metahuman over a century ago to increase her longevity. Suffice to say, it was extremely costly and took everything she had, leaving her high and dry. She is basically homeless, and jobless. But the augments are legitimate, and she will be able to last another century or two with them. And as for her story about run-ins with the Temple, they actually did catch her, and had her scheduled for purification. To the Temple, purifying a soul meant butchering them in life in a way considered "peaceful". A "peaceful butchering". She was so down on her luck, that she had to bargain with the Cat Goddess Seannsa to become a cat and gain enough luck to escape and evade the Temple ever since.
It seems all Seannsa wanted out of the bargain was for Catastrovania to merely keep up with the character of a cat using her luck. For example, a cat, being the only creature to land on all four feet when falling, would be so nimble and swift as to be considered impossible to catch, this is the characteristic of a cat. Catastrovania appears to provide empowerment to Seannsa by remaining at large, and always evading capture now. This was the relationship I imagine many gods shared with their followers. It benefited them both.
By all means, she is wanted by the Temple, as they intensely hate Metahumans for their existence rejects the Emperor and the road to Immortality by embracing other gods or methods for longevity, but perhaps not to the degree she claims. Her meeting was Hale was during a search for somewhere to hide. He helped her hide in his bunker, in return for teaching him how to become tech literate...
'Do you have any experience with combat?' - I decided to stop reading her memory and let her speak again. At this point, I should assume most of what she says is gross exaggerations.
[CATASTROVANIA] "While you partied, and spent all your time getting drunk on booze and getting wome-....o-or men, since you're a woman too... I studied the blade. My katana was forged in the fires of Yongesia's Mount Meiyo, the largest volcano there, and it was folded to the point of being able to slice through a whole tank effortlessly in one stroke. I must keep it sheathed at all times, or else the faintest swing can cut the building around me to ribbons."
'And your... "Psychometric Eye" is...?"
[CATASTROVANIA] "Worororo. That's a secret. But all you need to know is, whatever I look at with it will turn to dust."
It's just an augment that lets her see in the dark. Her other eye also has the same.
[MAJORDOMO] "Hey. Hey. Ask the josher if she'd rather fight a hundred duck sized elephants or an elephant sized duck."
'Would you rather fight one hundred-'
[CATASTROVANIA] "I'd win."
'I-I didn't even finish the question...'
[CATASTROVANIA] "It's answered."
'...'
