Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

She plays a major role in the book Robots and Empire as the daughter of the famous and the greatest roboticist of his time Han Fastolfe. She is a great roboticist by her own right, famous for manipulating R. Giskard, the robot assigned to her by her father, and giving him powers of telepathy and mind reading without her knowledge.

Later Life:

She was part of the robotics institute of Aurora and was in line to become the director. Her determination to not be in the planet during her father's death got her traveling to other Spacer worlds and therefore, when on Solaria, she came across specific mind patterns and associated it with telepathy, thereby discovering R.Giskard's powers.

She tries to use the laws of robotics to get Giskard's possession in the duel scene from Robots & Empire. But with the help of Daneel and their explanation of the three laws of Robotics, Giskard modifies her mind and she remembers nothing.

She is described as short and of looks similar to that of Gladia Solaria.
