Profile

She captured the Third Doctor, who had just arrived from his own version of Earth, and had mistaken her for his friend and colleague. Despite her absolute loyalty to her country's oppressive government, she tried to save the Doctor from execution, even though she initially didn't believe his story of interdimensional travel and thought he was a political demonstrator from an outlawed political group advocating greater freedom of speech.

She assisted the Doctor in returning to his world by shooting the Brigade Leader when he threatened to kill the Doctor unless he rescued himself, Shaw, and Petra Williams, something the Doctor was unwilling to do since he believed it would cause a dimensional paradox. She was last seen near to Williams and Sutton as a wall of lava flowed toward the technical storage hut. (DW: Inferno)
