Born on the the US Fraternity Base to a pair of retired agents, Eden is a Mendax Maximus (also called a "Friend of a Friend"), someone with the ability to make rumors come true by spreading them. Eden has been trained from childhood to use her powers to help the Fraternity, a fate she wished she could escape, but reluctantly accepts nonetheless. Eden has a near encyclopedic knowledge of urban legends, and struggles against her compulsive urge to share the stories she hears with others, as she knows doing so can have catastrophic effects on reality itself.

'''Role''': Resident Pseudoscientist and Medical Researcher
'''Urban Legend Inspiration''': The "10% of the Brain" Myth, Pop-Science
A resident psuedoscientist at the Fraternity Headquarters, Nadia is an eccentric Bostonian who gained access to 100% of her brainpower after overdosing on back-alley nootropics. Performing as what even she admits is just a stereotypical mad scientist, Nadia provides Eden and other agents with medical intelligence, such as information about new fad diets, dangerous definitely-real street drugs, and miraculous totally-not-snake oil cure all's.
