Wendy, originally known as Marcy Hermit, was the first Hybrid, a Human mind placed within the body of a Synthetic adult. Terminally ill, she was taken from her family when the Prodigy Corporation offered her father the chance of a new life for her, on the condition that it was kept secret even from her own brother. When the USCSS Maginot crashed into New Siam, Wendy learned her brother was part of the tactical force sent to secure the site and rescue survivors. Convincing the Prodigy CEO Boy Kavalier to allow her and the Lost Boys to assist, Wendy's primary motivation was to ensure that her brother was safe.
