History:
G'iah is the daughter of Talos, a prominent leader among the Skrulls, and Soren, his loyal wife. Growing up during the Skrull's long and arduous search for a new home following the destruction of their planet, G'iah was raised amidst conflict and uncertainty. Her early years were shaped by the struggles her people faced, which instilled in her a deep sense of responsibility and a desire to contribute to the Skrull cause.Unlike her father, who chose diplomacy and alliances, G'iah became more militant and aggressive in her approach. She joined the ranks of the Skrull operatives who were embedded on Earth, often taking on various identities to further the Skrull agenda. Her experiences on Earth exposed her to the complexities of human nature and the moral gray areas of their conflicts.Despite her loyalty to her people, G'iah harbors a deep-seated resentment toward the Kree, the race responsible for the Skrull's suffering. This resentment sometimes leads her to make rash decisions, driven more by emotion than strategy. However, her strong will and determination also make her a formidable opponent to anyone who threatens her or her people.Throughout her time on Earth, G'iah has struggled with the duality of her existence—torn between her Skrull heritage and the human emotions she has come to understand and even feel. This internal conflict makes her one of the more complex members of the Skrull race, navigating a world where the line between ally and enemy is constantly shifting.
