Biography
Halcyon days as Nula
Born in Britain as Catherine Maxwell, she adventured in the jungles of Buranda as Nula the Jungle Queen, alongside young sidekick Smedley — whom she nicknamed “Glumpy” or “Glompy”. The latter harboured romantic feelings for her, which were unrequited, although she did care more deeply about him than he realised. The trio of adventurers was completed by Captain Hollister, a “famous explorer” who more often than not ended up as a dude-in-distress for Nula to rescue. Also in this era, she became a friend to the Koravi. (COMIC: The Danger, the Diamond, and the Dowager)
Retirement and return to Buranda
Eventually, Nula, Glumpy and Captain Hollister retired from adventuring as age caught up with them. Smedley stayed in Buranda, becoming the Commissioner, while Catherine and Hollister each returned to England, with the latter getting a knighthood to cap off his adventuring career, much to Nula's wry amusement.
Three decades later, however, she returned to Buranda after Solomon's Diamond came up for auction at Boothby's, intent on returning it to the Koravi Temple. She was followed to Buranda Pass by mercenary Mitchell, now working for the Skull, who believed that she must have returned to Buranda in order to use the diamond to find a mysterious “treasure”. Oblivious to these shadowy machinations, she reunited with Smedley, who was still silently carrying a torch for her, and was entertained to meet her “replacements” as the jungle's European-descended “protectors”, Kaza and Gwenna. The following night, feeling the heat getting to her, she decided to go for a midnight swim in the river, only to realise that she was being spied upon by Mitchell. She knocked him out easily and took his rifle for herself, but returned to the village too late, finding it already aflame as the Skull's men began their raid.
