Character History
Homecoming
By entering his sister Shanti's name as a password, Mohinder Suresh is able to unlock a list of evolved humans. Linda's name is included on that list.
Graphic Novel:War Buddies, Part 7
At a Denver airport, Linda watches and notes Daniel Linderman in her notebook as he arrives home from Vietnam.
Later, Linda meets him at a gas station and invites him back to her campsite. He tells her stories about his experience in the war and the horrors he faced.
The next morning, they decide to go hiking and come across a wounded deer. After Linderman heals it, she attempts to take his ability from him, but is killed by him instead. Linderman then burns her body.
Graphic Novel:Bounty Hunter
In 1972, Linda is fired from her job as a private investigator due to the mysterious disappearances of several of her "marks." She is approached by a woman who offers her a job--to track down a list of individuals in a notebook. After she turns in two of her targets, she kills a third, a bartender named Jason Welkes.
Four weeks later, Linda contacts her informant and claims that he could not be found. Thinking Linda incompetent, the informant refuses to give her any more assignments. Linda kills the informant with her ability and steals the notebook. Inside the notebook, Linda finds information on her next target, Daniel Linderman; and flies to Centennial Airport to find him.
Evolved Human Abilities
Linda seems to have had the ability to absorb the powers of other evolved humans and use them for her own. Her applied hand and forearm glow blue while doing this.
In Bounty Hunter, it is confirmed that this ability can be fatal to the people it is used on.
