Fictional Character Biography
Nia Noble is a hybrid of a human telepath and an enhanced Atlantean. Her father was the Atlantean Nazi sympathizer U-Man, and it is believed that her mother was the World War II-era villainess called Lady Lotus.
Much of her past is unknown. Nia was born during WWII, but because of her Atlantean physiology she is still physically a young woman. At some point she met and married former Golden Age superhero, Peter Noble, known as The Fin, who was mystically prevented from aging and could breathe underwater. The two became rulers of the Fin's undersea kingdom of Neptunia, where they stayed out of surface affairs for decades.
However, Peter Noble still held a U. S. Navy commission, which was reactivated (at the rank of Admiral) so that he could take command of the Infiltrator, a battleship designed by the Thin Man using extradimensional technology. This vessel could sail through "six-dimensional" space, re-entering our world at any point it chose, as well as containing other extremely advanced features. Nia and Peter both boarded the ship, along with Thin Man and the rest of his New Invaders team.
The Infiltrator acted as the Invaders' headquarters for several missions, but ultimately had to be sacrificed to prevent a doomsday device from being used by Nia's evil father, U-Man, to flood the world. The Invaders disbanded after this, and it is assumed that Nia and her husband returned to Neptunia as its rulers.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional, character and/or biography:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“No sooner does a great man depart, and leave his character as public property, than a crowd of little men rushes towards it. There they are gathered together, blinking up to it with such vision as they have, scanning it from afar, hovering round it this way and that, each cunningly endeavouring, by all arts, to catch some reflex of it in the little mirror of himself.”
—Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
“A biography is like a handshake down the years, that can become an arm-wrestle.”
—Richard Holmes (b. 1945)
