Special Attacks

Pyrokinetics - There are three stages to this spell. Aya actives mitochondria in the cells of the hands, causing the outburst of a high-temperature shot. Aya can shoot up to three heat blasts.

Combustion - Aya actives mitochondria in the enemy's skin, causing its combustion. In the second stage, Aya puts the enemy's lungs on fire, causing internal burns. The final stage, Aya burns body fat, melting the enemy like a candle.

Inferno - Aya uses radioactive isotopes found inside microbes to cause nuclear fission. The explosions cause epidermal burns. In the second stage, Aya uses radioactive isotopes to cause a nuclear fission. The explosion reduce the target to ashes. In the final stage, Aya uses radioactive isotopes to cause nuclear

fission. Destroys the target at molecular level.

Metabolize - In the first stage, Aya generates antibodies through mitochondrial energy and immunizes the target. Acts against bacilli, but isn't

always effective. In the second stage, Aya increases blood white cells production against the action of the bacilli, but needs time. In the final stage, Aya increases corporal metabolism. Locates, neutralizes and eliminates bacilli instantly.

Healing - In the first stage, Aya increases mitochondria, powers up energy production and restores strength. As a result, mitochondria become weaker. In the second stage, Aya regenerates lost cells. As a result, the body's mitochondrial energy decreases. In the final stage, Aya turns mitochondria into energy, causing fast regeneration.

Life Drain - Aya absorbs energy from enemies. In the first stage, Aya indirectly controls mitochondria of nearby organisms, thanks to which it produces energy that increases vitality. In the second stage, Aya directly controls mitochondria of nearby organisms, producing energy that increases vitality. In the final stage, Aya fully controls mitochondria of nearby enemies, increasing vitality.

Necrosis - Aya uses electric discharge in this attack. In the first stage, she conglobates mitochondria in the hands, releasing electric discharges. The target's epidermal cells gangrene. In the second stage, Aya destroys the target's internal organs cells. In the final stage, Aya destroys the bone cells of the target.

Plasma - In the first stage, Aya activates mitochondria, producing discharges that generate high-temperature ions. The waves of the explosion knock down the enemy. In the second stage, Aya produces ions that cause a powerful detonation. The waves of the explosion knock the enemy flat. In the final stage, Aya generates ions that cause a powerful detonation. The waves of the explosion cut down the enemy.

Apobiosis - Paralysis. In the first stage, Aya activates mitochondria, creating an electric discharge. Immobilizes nearby enemies, destroying their nervous cells. In the second stage, Aya programs the accelerate death of the nervous cells and causes spasm to the nearby target. In the final stage, Aya programs the accelerate death of the nervous cells and paralyzes the nearby target.

Antibody - In the first stage, Aya uses mitochondria to suck up the Earth's magnetism, creating a protective covering against the enemy's attacks. In the second stage, Aya sucks up the Earth's magnetism, creating a covering capable of cutting in half the enemy's attacking power. In the final stage, Aya sucks up the Earth's magnetism, creating a covering which neutralizes the enemy's attack.

Energy Shot - In the first stage, Aya increases ammo speed, thanks to the electromagnetic force created by mitochondria. In the second stage, Aya increases ammo speed and changes their structure to increase their Stopping Power. In the final stage, Aya increases ammo speed and every shot fires cancerous mitochondria.

Energy Ball - Aya produces a ball of energy to aid her in her fight. In the first stage, Aya creates a magnetic field in which rotates a superconductor, against which the enemy collides. In the second stage, Aya creates a magnetic field in which rotate two superconductors, against which the enemy breaks. In the final stage, Aya creates three superconductors which rotate elliptically in a magnetic field, hitting the target.

Liberate - Aya activates the full power of her mitochondria and becomes an angel-like creature with sky blue skin and white wings. In this form, she attacks her enemies furiously, bringing death with each blow. This form is only temporary and causes her become dizzy after using it.

Unite Attacks

Spyro: Gunbladers ~ Aya and Spyro stand side-by-side and pull the triggers of their respective Gunblades, striking each enemy with fierce shots.

Background Information

Aya Brea was born in Boston, Massachusetts in 1972. She is of mixed ethnicity: her father (name unrevealed), who is a journalist, was white, her mother (Mariko) was Japanese. This gives her a unique appearance as she boasts many Asian facial features, such as the shape of her face and eyes, while possessing typically Caucasian coloring, including blue eyes and fair blonde hair. She had a sister named Maya who, along with her mother, died in an automobile accident in or around December 1977.

After Maya's death, her organs were preserved, which allowed for one of her corneas to be transplanted into Aya, in 1986. At the same time, one of Maya's kidneys was transplanted into a young girl named Melissa Pearce. Unknown to any of the doctors, Maya Brea's mitochondria were highly evolved and began changing Aya and Melissa's genetic structure.

As a young woman, Aya studied criminology at the University of Massachusetts and was involved in their ROTC program, but any record of military service is never mentioned within the game. She later became a detective with the NYPD 17th precinct. Within the first 6 months of working at the precinct, Aya became involved in an incident known as the New York Blockade Incident to the general public. As an officer, she became part of the "father and daughter" team where she was partnered up with Daniel "Bo" Dollis, a veteran cop, who can be considered overly protective of her at worst. On December 24, 1997, Aya attended an opera performance at Carnegie Hall with her date (whose name is never mentioned), which starred Melissa Pearce as the lead.

During the performance, Maya's advanced mitochondria, which had lain dormant in Melissa for eleven years, awakened and transformed her into Mitochondria Eve. As her first act against humankind, Eve killed everyone in Carnegie Hall via spontaneous human combustion, except for Aya who was immune to the effect.

During the next six days, Aya fought Eve and the creatures she spawned, known as Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures or NMCs, all across Manhattan, greatly assisted by the incredible powers she started to exhibit. Aya would later discover that she was granted great power due to the fact that she possessed Maya's mitochondria (transferred to her body during the corneal transplant), but it was unable to take control of her as it did Melissa because of Aya's evolved cell nuclei. Aya fought and destroyed a strain of rapidly evolving mitochondria that threatened to enslave all humanity. Eventually, Aya engaged Eve in a showdown on Liberty Island, in which Eve was killed. After this however, she had to destroy The Ultimate Being, that Eve gave birth to. After an ongoing battle between her humanity and evolution, Aya successfully managed to destroy the creature with a little help from Daniel and Kunihiko Maeda (a Japanese scientist assisting them with advice in these matters). She soon became a hero among the government ranks for her courageous acts while few civilians are aware of the details of the event.

After the events in her adventure transpire, Aya head for the Chrysler Building to settle the score with the true Eve, her own sister, Maya. Maya explains to Aya that Klamp cultivated the cells of the original Eve to analyze. So when Melissa was giving birth to the ultimate being, she created a nest there. In case Melissa and the ultimate being failed, the purebred would remain. Aya speaks with her sister, and they engage in battle against the purebred. After the purebred is defeated, the mitochondria inside Aya begin to rebel against her. The explanation is that Aya's mitochondria have now reached a higher evolutionary stage than Maya’s, but Maya's personality has suddenly become dominant and begun to fight off the Eve persona. Maya eventually wins, purging the Eve persona from herself. Somehow, Maya protects Aya by preventing the original Eve from taking over her. Aya leaves the building by herself, although she apparently has gained some sort of connection with her dead sister. She lost her powers after the battle.

A few months after Eve's rampage in New York, Aya left the force and joined a newly-formed branch of the FBI known as the Mitochondrion Investigation and Suppression Team or MIST. The purpose of MIST, based out of Los Angeles, is to hunt down and destroy any remaining NMCs. During her time as a MIST Agent, Aya had always worked alone due to the abnormality of her powers. "I try not to show others my mitochondrial powers. I can see the fear in their eyes." Another fact worth noting is that due to her awakened mitochondria in her cells, Aya appears younger than her biological age. Despite having this as a benefit, Aya would be happier just living one normal life rather than living into another century beyond the 21st.

In early September of 2000, Aya was following a lead to a tiny town called Dryfield in the Mojave Desert where she met a 29-year-old P.I. from Texas called Kyle Madigan (who she formed a partnership with). With Kyle's co-operation, Aya soon discovered a strange shadow government facility called Neo-Ark where scientists were using Aya's DNA to breed a race of Artificial Neo-Mitochondrial Creatures. To control the ANMCs, the Neo-Ark directors brainwashed a young girl named Eve, a clone of Aya. Given Eve's age and various clues in the game, Eve is thought to be a clone that ages rapidly, considering she looks 10 years old and was cloned after Aya's mitochondria was awakened in 1997. Two more disturbing theories which have been put forward are that Eve is actually a clone of Maya Brea or possibly a clone of Aya made before Aya's mitochondria awakened, thus suggesting the shadow government knew about Aya's potential. After discovering that Eve, as well as the ANMCs were all made from her, she felt obligated to "finish what she started" and once again, save humanity from an ominious fate which was ultimately the cause of her own physical existence.

After the destruction of the Neo-Ark facility, as well as her "struggle" having finally ended, Aya left MIST, any documents containing information regarding the NMCs were disposed of by the US Government, she took the young Eve in, forming a motherly/sisterly bond with her, and thanks to one of her friends in MIST, Rupert Broderick, pulled some strings and created a profile for Eve saying that she's Aya's sister, no questions asked. Aya's boss, Eric Baldwin was discovered to be a mole for the shadow government and was ultimately locked behind bars for treason courtesy of Aya learning so from another one of her friends, Pierce D. Carradine. Baldwin's place leading MIST was taken by Rupert Broderick following the inside investigation. Kyle Madigan (who disappeared after the Neo Ark events) meets with Aya and Eve in N.Y, and is hinted that both Aya and Kyle are getting involved in a romantic relationship.
