Lian Yen is a member of The New Exodus Vanguard, and part of the team lead by Kendrick Merrill. She is of Chinese heritage, however her age and true background is largely unknown.

During induction, Lian claimed to have joined the Vanguard after her remaining family, consisting of her grandfather, had been wiped out. She paired up with Bill Nash during the drunken revelry prior to departing the staging area of The New Exodus Vanguard, although it has since transpired that this was purely an act to fit in with the team and hide her true nature.

Lian appears to possess a form of split personality, which craves to murder and torture others, generally men, who she exploits through sexual attraction. She has murdered many times in the past, generally using paralytic substances to draw out the process for her victim. Despite this, Lian prefers to carry out her murders in a restrained and clean fashion, to minimize the chance of being exposed or caught.

Lian is skilled in deception, both practicing it and recognizing it in others, which she utilizes to great effect when exploring within the population of Amber Two to determine their shared secret.

Traits: Potential psychopath or serial killer, who seems to take some delight in drawing out the process of killing others. Traits possibly related to Hunger Shadows. Skilled in hand-to-hand combat and deception. Emotionally distant due to her psychopathic traits, channeling emotional reactions inwards until they can be safely released.
