Story:

According to Lex, before the fall of Hyperion, she was slated to be the first true cybernetic soldier of Hyperion. (Her brother was second). She took easily to the training required for cybernetic enhancement, unlike some others in her class, and purportedly “burnt her competition to a crisp” while they were “still learning how to make icicles.”

Due to the failure of the Hyperion reactor, Lex was put into a prolonged and unexpected cryosleep. When the Hyperion Reactor was restarted decades later, her unusual body chemistry caused her to awaken from sleep weeks early. She then vanished for an undisclosed period of time. (Curiously, during this time, it was also reported that sudden wildfires flared up all over frozen Hyperion subzones, thawing some, and burning down others. Connections to Lex are still purely conjecture).

Hyperion records state that Lex can manipulate fire, superheating the air around her and creating explosions at will.
