First appearance: Page 1.44 - "Dorm Buddies"

Abilities: g-n+ (born genetically enhanced); high intelligence. There is a particular type of new intelligence that negates any significance of an IQ test. For people like Rochelle, their brains work much more like a supercomputer, able to process information and make calculations at an astoundingly fast rate. This makes her a walking encyclopedia and calculator. Like a chess computer she is able to strategise cause and effect to the nth degree and is also a superb martial artist. Her weakness lies in her contempt of other people, the smartest of whom still seem like morons to her. Also, like all computers, her brain has the tendency to "crash" when overloaded with conflicting data. She meditates rather than sleeps as she acknowledges the need to access inner abstract dimensions of her mind not just outer concrete concepts.

Official status: Probationary Super Agent Ranking 1

Points of interest: Has disregarded her parents' desires that she use her intellect to make squillions of dollars through scientific research and development. Has chosen instead a more austere path in keeping with Buddhist traditions and a desire to help the world by vanquishing evil and hatred. Back to the Cast Page
