Amanda McKee
Amanda McKee is a Harbinger training at the Harbinger Foundation with her boyfriend, Edward T. Sedgewick. After abandoning the foundation, the two are forced to live on the run in hiding from Toyo Harada. This causes immense strain on their relationship, causing them to separate but remain close friends.
Geomancer Geoff McHenry eventually recruits Amanda and Edward to join his Secret Weapons team. Their time on the team is short lived, as they are deemed to volatile to be among the public, and are surrendered back into the Harbinger Foundation.
Once again under control of the foundation, Amanda undergoes a lobotomy that alters her being, turning her into a devout warrior that joins Toyo Harada and helps him fulfill his dream of a new world order. The operation also causes Amanda to lose her memory of her relationship with Edward.

Amanda McKee was orphaned at a young age. Taken in by the billionaire visionary and founder of the Harbinger Foundation, Toyo Harada, Amanda grew up devoted to Harada and his mission. Assuming the name Livewire, she rose to the highest level of the Foundation rank's. All that changed when Peter Stanchek joined the Harbinger Foundation. Confronted by Peter's sheer power and his rebelliousness, Harada's façade of control began to fray and his domineering tendencies became clear. Though she still believed in Harada's vision, Livewire believed needed to counterbalance Harada's immense power. Livewire aided Peter in his escape and went into exile.
Months, later when Aric of Dacia claimed Romania and his people's homeland, Harada asked Livewire to join Unity, the elite strike team he was forming to stop Aric and avert a large scale global conflict. Using her control over machines, Livewire stripped the X-O Manowar armor from Aric, donned it herself and easily subdue his people, ending the conflict. Bonding with the armor enhanced Livewire's abilities, permitting her to now access nearly the full extent of the Harbinger Foundation's records. With Harada's darkest secrets now exposed to her, Livewire learned the true extent of his evil, and quickly marshaled the Unity team against her former mentor. Leaving the Harbinger Foundation behind completely, Livewire joined Ninjak, The Eternal Warrior, X-O Manowar in the newly formed Unity team.
