Trivia

 * She is based on the Batman Character, Lady Shiva
 * Her way of sending Ryder on challenges is similar to the strategy used by The Puzzler
 * Also, her escape makes her the 3rd person to evade arrest in her debut appearance, whereas Puzzler was the first, the second was Silence.
 * However, she might be considered the fourth since in Golem's first appearance, he was able to escape from Ryder on a helicopter, but he was later arrested in the next episode.
 * She is the first female villain to evade arrest in her first appearance
 * Also, if you think about it, she might end up being the ONLY female to do so, since Red Ryder has only 5 other female enemies
 * Trickster was arrested with Saggi in the season 1 finale, which was her first appearance as a villain.
 * Vixen turned herself in during her first appearance.
 * Thorne was arrested when trying to rob a bank when she kissed a female police officer (However, Thorne wasn't arrested by Red Ryder).
 * Mercinary was arrested after Ryder defeated her and took the antidote to the toxin she had placed in him.
 * Valkyrie hasn't made an appearance yet, so it's possible that she might be the second female villain to evade arrest in her debut.
 * She is Red Ryder's first female villain
 * Originally, this was meant to be either Vixen or Thorne, but due to a confusion in their debut episodes, their debuts were moved to season 2.
