At school in Calw she befriended Sinclair over his fear of prosthetic surgery, then borrowed his basement key and showed him an Abnormality, leaving him terrified. On Christmas Eve she and Guido massacred his family. She later struck a deal with K Corp. to bring the Inquisition to Calw in exchange for footage of the tragedy. In Canto III she restages the massacre to break Sinclair, hangs townspeople on pikes, and reaches the Golden Bough first. Sinclair resolves to kill her.
