Name:Niki Sanders
Ability:Enhanced strength
Niki grew up with her abusive father, Hal Sanders and her younger yet protective sister, Jessica. In a drunken rage Hal killed Jessica, and a tramatic Niki subdued the memory as a child. Years later Niki met and married D.L. Hawkins and they had a son, Micah. Niki's stress, alcholism, and tramatic childhood, brought on a split personality; one to "be the strong one" as Niki felt she wasn't strong enough to deal. The first alter to manifest named itself Jessica, attibuting itself as a protecter as Niki's deceased sister once was. After Niki successfully intergrated with Jessica (and learned that she had incredible strength), another personality maifested, Gina. This personality's shenanagans in Los Angeles ended up gettng D.L. shot and killed. Horrified, Niki seeked out treatment and left Micah in the hands of D.L.'s familiy, the Dawsons. Once The Company helped he integrate he alters she was infected with the Shanti Virus, a debilitating virus that left her powerless. Now, mentally healthy she returned to Micah. There, she found out that Monica, the relative in care of Micah, was captured. Niki succesfully saved her and Micah, but in doing so, became trapped in a burning wearhouse and died.
Name:Jessica
Ability:Enhanced strength via Niki
Jessica was the first personality to manifest in Niki. She took control in times of Niki's stress or a weakened state. The personality took the name of Niki's sister as Niki saw her as being protective.

Jessica intergrated with Niki once Niki realized that she was "the strong one" and that she, in fact, could fight back.
Name:Gina
Ability:presumably Enhanced strength via Niki
Gina was the second personality to manifest in Niki. Gina appered after Niki stopped taking her Company prescribed medication. This personality got its naem from an alias that Niki took on a runaway trip to Los Angeles. Now the personality wants the same thing, to go to L.A. for a "fun time".
