Nina Cortex

Later on in the series, she would usurp he uncle's position as creator of mutant animals. She has a voice resembling that of a valley girl.

Early Childhood
Nina's childhood is almost completely obscure. Her father obviously was taken away from her unanimously, and her uncle Dr. Neo Cortex took care of her since then. When dreadful signs of love for furry and cute animals, Neo took her for some dark modifications at  Madame Amberly's Academy of Evil. Nina's arms were replaced with Bionic fists that were able to launch from her body, giving her an advantage at reaching or climbing. However, she was not able to grab any small furry animals any more, for if she would try she would most probably crush the creature to it's doom with her powerful grasp. She was then sent to the Academy for her school.

Fusion
In Crash Fusion, Nina had her first appearance. She was probably about five to eight years old at this appearance, as she talked and acted like a young child. Cortex needed Nina to kill Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon so that he and Ripto could conquer the universe. Nina took the opportunity as playtime with a furry animal. She chased Crash through dungeon walls where Coco Bandicoot and The Professor were being held hostage. However, Spyro outsmarted her and trapped her within a cage that he dropped on her while she was chasing Crash. Nina complained as she weeped that it was No fair.
