Heroes Evolutions
The Agent
In chapter 1 of The Agent, at the Flight 195 crash site, Rachel feels a burst of air when a second blond girl suddenly appears, and then watches as both the new girl and the senator's daughter, Claire, disappear.
Later, search parties locate Claire and the fast girl next to the smashed tail of the plane. However, before a proper ambush can be organized, the fast girl stands up as if she might take off and Gibson opens fire. His shots send the fast girl and Claire onto the ground, and then he pauses when another fugitive faces off with him. The other agents keep firing, but Gibson is forced to shoot the other recruits in the main search party and Rachel's squad. Danko shoots Gibson dead before he can kill Rachel, who is the only recruit left standing from both parties. The other fugitives then flee, leaving Daphne's body and Claire.
Evolved Human Abilities
Daphne had the ability to move at superhuman speed. She had used her ability to steal things such as food and valuable items. It is currently unknown if Daphne was actually capable of running far past the speed of sound. When amplified by Ando's ability, Daphne was capable of running faster than the speed of light, allowing her to time travel.

Notes
- It seems that Daphne's name was originally "Joy", but was later changed to Daphne. Early news reports [1][2] about Brea Grant joining Heroes indicated the name Joy. The commentary for Dying of the Light also states this; no reason has ever been given for the name change.
- Also according to the commentary for Dying of the Light, Daphne was originally supposed to be French, but this was later changed. She does, however, reside in Paris, France. When she felt like a caged bird, she wished to leave her town and walk the Seine River in Paris (The Caged Bird, Part 1).
