Background

Her in-game description says she was just about to defeat The Throne when a wormhole threw her in front of a charging Gnaar army, so she pulled out her Slugger and Tommy Gun and started blasting. She has the highest health of all the characters but moves slowly. Her ultimate, Last Stand, surrounds her with a crystal shield that deflects solid projectiles such as bullets, rockets and grenades, but not energy or acid weapons or melee attacks; it needs only one kill to charge instead of the usual 100, and charging it for up to 100 kills makes it last longer. Her primary weapon is the Tommy Gun and her secondary the Slugger. She is unlocked with the Family Jewels achievement by destroying her collectible in the game world, the easiest of the three characters unlocked through collectibles.
