Lian operates deep within the WIRED network as a member of the Fei Dao hacker and terrorist group. Originally selected as a research subject for unspecified experiments by the organization VSS, she was rescued from their facility by Quon. This intervention saved her from the fate of other child test subjects who died or were terminated due to experimental failures. Following her rescue, Lian joined Fei Dao, rising to prominence within their underground community.
She resides at Fei Dao's headquarters, a small underground base resembling a resistance community, alongside other survivors including Genha and child members. Within the group, Lian holds a leadership position focused on hacking operations. Her technical expertise enables her to lead and execute cyber attacks against targets like the military organization FLAK.
The VSS experiments left Lian appearing older than her chronological age. Her background is immersed in the broader conspiracy of human experimentation aimed at digitizing consciousness, though her specific role or results within those experiments remain undetailed.
