While there is a more in-depth post about Antonia's gender identity, the TLDR is: She continues to mostly use she/her pronouns, though over time integrates he/him pronouns into the mix as well. Likewise, not much about her external appearance changes, as she has found herself comfortable where she is in terms of that. Most people, too, tend to already call him either Nomad or Toni, and the most she will do is correct where appropriate (e.g., "Just Toni/Nomad is fine").
Antonia was unaware that Sam Fisher was her biological father until her son, out of curiosity with his own child on the way, did some genealogy and ancestry tests, in which his name appeared. Digging into it herself, and with the help of Bowman, she learned the truth. Unable to contact him after the events in Bolivia, Antonia uses her time with him on Auroa to confront him and inquire about their circumstances. Ultimately, his lack of involvement in her life boiled down to previous tragic experiences (e.g., several other failed relationships), the intensity of his work, and simply not knowing that Marilyn had gotten pregnant.
Antonia gets antsy when on Rest & Recuperation and has trouble adjusting to the “mundane day-to-day life” when not deployed.
Antonia speaks fluent Spanish, but her accent has been known to be poor.
Antonia is an expert in communications as well as psychological and unconventional warfare. She is also a weapons specialist.
She has a son and two daughters, both of which are heading to university.
Antonia is troubled by the fact that she has to keep her true occupation in the military a secret from her family, especially her son, but respects and holds its secrecy without falter.
Contrary to popular assumptions, she hasn't seen The A-Team.
Antonia considers Operation Kingslayer to be a revenge mission first and foremost and hopes to avoid getting involved in local politics.
Antonia highly distrusts the CIA and its rebel contacts, to which she trades jokes with Bowman about being "old-fashioned".
Born on May 30th, 1980 in Boston, Massachusetts. Antonia was an Army brat who spent her childhood moving from base to base. She joined the US Army at 18 and underwent selection for Delta Force at 24. Antonia spent three tours with counter-terrorist Task Force 88 before being recruited into the Group for Specialized Tactics (The Ghosts). During her early years with the military, Antonia been married and divorced twice, with a teenage son by her first husband and twin daughters by her second. She struggles to maintain a relationship with her son, who blames her for having been an absentee mother.
She quickly rose through the ranks to become Team Leader during a tough mission in Eastern Europe. This mission occurred in 2017 when a mission went wrong in Ukraine. Her team leader was injured, and she stepped up as a result. Antonia’s first full mission in this leadership role was a hostage rescue operation in the Amazon Jungle at the border between Brazil, Venezuela, and Colombia. This was also the first mission for the newly formed team of Ghosts composed of Nomad, Weaver (who’s been on several missions with Antonia), Holt and Midas (for whom it both was their first assignment as Ghosts). During this conflict, her unit was caught up in the Mexican Rebellion and Antonia fought alongside the Ghost operators, Staff Sergeant John Hume and Captain Nick Salvatore.
After being recruited into the Ghosts, she was assigned to a squad with Sage, Joker, and Weaver. During a mission in Donetsk, Sage, and Joker were injured and Antonia was put in charge of a new squad with Holt and Midas, which displeased him due to it not being “protocol.” Their first mission was to retrieve or destroy a downed UAV in South America, as well as rescue archaeologists and a research team from militants who were keeping them as hostages.
During her initial briefing, Antonia saw surveillance footage of El Sueño executing the family of a Bolivian police officer. Stating that this footage has haunted her ever since, she made a vow to do everything he could to stop El Sueño. As the Ghost team leader and Support Gunner of Kingslayer Team, Antonia is the one making the important decisions. In the U.S. Army, she was trained to leverage the expertise of each member of his squad for success.

GHOST RECON: WILDLANDS
Two years after the Ukraine incident, along with her fellow Ghosts Holt, Midas and Weaver, Antonia was deployed alongside the other Ghosts in Bolivia as part of Operation Kingslayer, a joint operation between CIA, DEA, and JSOC to dismantle the Cartel with full autonomy, doing what they saw needed to be done on their terms. The Ghosts enter Bolivia with their CIA contact, “Karen Bowman”, who was also a close friend to Sandoval. The Ghosts meet Pac Katari, leader of the Kataris 26, the only resistance against Santa Blanca. Pac Katari requests they rescue Amaru, whose ideologies inspired the Kataris 26, from Santa Blanca. The Ghosts, with support from Bowman and the Kataris 26’s, are then free to tackle the cartel in any way they see fit.
Antonia is a driving force in dismantling the cartel piece by piece, targeting their four main operations by attacking cocaine production facilities and stockpiles, disrupting smuggling operations, discrediting the cartel in the eyes of corrupt politicians and supporters, and inciting conflict between the cartel’s senior figures. She and her team capture and kill El Sueño’s top lieutenants and their key subordinates to further weaken the cartel’s grip over the region. El Sueño eventually contacts the team and lures them to a meeting to meet face to face. Antonia reluctantly agrees, but does not find El Sueño at the agreed location. El Sueño instead calls them via phone to bribe the Ghosts into working for him, though Antonia refuses his offer and instead threatens him. In retaliation for the boldness the cartel leader showed, Antonia turns her sights to taking down El Sueño’s security sector.
After taking down El Muro, Antonia and her team are contacted by an old ally. Lieutenant Colonel Scott Mitchell (call sign: Griffin) was sent to oversee the operation of gathering intelligence on the cartel and Unidad activities, as Washington had suspected them working with Russian nationalists, alongside John Kozak (call sign: Little Brother), one of the sharpest yet youngest recruits which was described by Mitchell whom he had been telling himself that he was just cocky.
When he infiltrated M.O.B Condor near Media Luna province, Kozak found out that Unidad had been shipping uranium found beneath Bolivia’s mines to the Russians. Nomad was sent in to help Kozak stop the shipments from reaching their destination. On their way, Kozak disliked the call sign and suggested being called “Spade”, but Antonia still disagrees.
BASE jumping to the Unidad base, her team met Kozak wearing and using the prototype optical camouflage installed on her suit by Skell Technology for easy infiltration and field test it at the same time. Next, they made their way to the pilot of a helicopter carrying a cargo of uranium, who gave them access to the helicopter, with Kozak protesting Antonia’s rough treatment of the pilot and suggesting he could have interrogated him due to him being able to speak Russian.
After making their way to the helicopter, they flew through the canyons of the province in order to avoid nearby surface-to-air emplacements and nearly getting blown off the sky by incoming Unidad helicopters; the crew made their way back to Mitchell, with them finding out that not all the uranium was on the helicopter they just delivered home.
As such, the Ghosts made their way to an informant inside a rusty freight train cart in Inca Camina freight yard, who gave them intelligence that the cartel was going to set off a dirty bomb on a truck in the main town of Barvechos in order to spread chaos because of the citizens for helping the rebels. Making their way to the blast zone, the Ghosts cleared off the hostiles while Kozak attempted to disarm the bomb, but to no avail. With no way to disarm the bomb but delaying it for a minute, Antonia took the truck carrying the bomb and drove it off into a nearby quarry (technically Barvechos Mine after Karen google mapping the correct place) in order to safely detonate the payload, quickly escaping the truck before the explosion occurred. Moments later, Mitchell contacted Antonia that he was glad the mission’s result is a good job which could have been really messy, thus saying Antonia’s “Bolivian vacation” hadn’t turned soft and would be in touch. After that, Kozak told Antonia that she had done nice work and saved the entire village “like a real hero”. Antonia responded that Kozak could take the next one. Still, the young recruit admitted that the mission was too close and almost got themselves killed, which he might not be cut out for this. Antonia told him that close calls were part of the game, because completing the mission was all that matters. Finally, she told the recruit not to worry, there would be plenty more chances to prove himself.
Resuming the dismantling the cartel, the team finds and collects audio tapes of agent Sandoval’s reports to Bowman of his time working undercover for El Sueño. Sandoval’s reports reveal he had become deeply troubled by his mission, not only by the crimes he had committed to keep his cover but also by his superiors’ reluctance to take action against the cartel. After recovering Sandoval’s body from the cartel, Sueno contacts them again to offer them a tape of “Sandoval’s confession”. Upon listening to it, Antonia is disturbed to learn that Sandoval was responsible for the embassy bombing and framed Santa Blanca so that it would force the United States government to intervene in Bolivia. Though Bowman and the team are angered by Sandoval’s deception, they decide to continue with the mission as the cartel still poses a threat.
The Kingslayer Team later intercepts a distress signal outside the city of Frontera and finds a crashed truck surrounded by piles of cash and several dead cartel members. The team reports the massacre to Bowman, who informs them that Rainbow operative Taina “Caveira” Pereira has recently gone AWOL from Rainbow and is suspected of killing several Santa Blanca gang members. Bowman then introduces the team to fellow Rainbow operative Meghan J. “Valkyrie” Castellano, who requests the team’s help in locating Caveira. Hoping to stop the rogue operative from potentially starting an international incident, Bowman and the team agree to help bring in Caveira. The team soon meets Rainbow operative Emmanuelle “Twitch” Pichon, who requests the team bring her to the crash site. Their investigation leads them to a cartel outpost where they interrogate a Santa Blanca lieutenant, who reveals that Caveira is after someone named Dengoso. Twitch briefly parts ways with before rendezvousing with them at Dengoso’s apartment hoping to find any hints as to why Caveira’s after him.
A message on Dengoso’s answering machine reveals he is Caveira’s younger brother João, and an undercover officer for the Federal Police of Brazil. Sent by his superiors to infiltrate Santa Blanca, Dengoso’s cover had recently been blown and he is now being held captive by the cartel at a chemical institute. With Caveira already on her way to Dengoso’s location, Twitch and the team catch up to her at the front gates and agree to assist her in rescuing Dengoso from Santa Blanca. The rescue is a success, though tensions rise between Team Rainbow and the Ghosts when Bowman demands Dengoso’s cooperation in sharing anything he knows about El Sueño and his operations in Bolivia. Despite Caveira’s insistence on leaving immediately with Dengoso, the latter agrees to cooperate with Bowman only with permission from his superiors. Nomad soon breaks the tension between both sides by allowing Dengoso to leave with Team Rainbow, much to Bowman’s chagrin.
After dismantling the remaining forces of the cartel, Pac Katari claims his men have located El Sueño, but Antonia grows suspicious when she finds the body of Amaru. Unable to contact Bowman, the Ghosts find her captured by the Kataris 26 and Pac Katari breaks their alliance, claiming that the rebels must kill El Sueño themselves to avoid being seen as puppets of the United States. The Ghosts rescue Bowman and race to El Sueño’s mausoleum to capture him before Pac Katari kills him. After fighting their way through both rebel and cartel opposition, the Ghosts and Bowman surround El Sueño, who has beheaded Katari. Despite his surrendering, Bowman receives a call from her superiors, informing that El Sueño had made a deal with the Department of Justice to give up the heads of other drug cartels in exchange for immunity and witness protection. Bowman begrudgingly takes El Sueño into protective custody. El Sueño provides further intelligence on other drug cartels, terrorist groups, and arms smugglers. Bowman predicts that when the intelligence runs out, Mexico will extradite El Sueño or cut loose and start a new drug cartel, starting the cycle over again. She and the Ghosts resolve to prepare themselves for the next fight.
Prior to their extraction from Bolivia, Antonia’s team would be called by Karen Bowman to extract Skell Technology’s R&D Technical Director, Daniel Rodriguez Arellano, who has been arrested by Unidad. The asset has knowledge of sensitive American industrial secrets that must be protected. They meet Major Cole D. Walker, a fellow Ghost Team Leader with his own agenda. He found out that Daniel was the one who designed those Skell Tech’s drones for Unidad. Then, Unidad modified and weaponized them, which killed Walker’s teammates, Sergeant Major Jeffery K. Griffin and Master Sergeant Alejandro J. Sanchez.
After extracting Daniel to the safe house, Antonia intercepted a call from Bowman to the Skell Tech engineer through the drone. But before she can tail the engineer, she meets up with Walker and tries to reason with him to not try to kill Bowman for the loss of his teammates. Thanks to Walker’s tracker he put into Daniel, Antonia finds out that the engineer sold out Bowman to Unidad, so he can get his passports to leave Bolivia. Walker kills Daniel, which upsets Antonia. Nevertheless, they get to M.O.B Jaguar and find Bowman tied up and extract her to a nearby rally point. During the argument between Bowman and Walker, Antonia convinces Walker to see reason. Knowing that he trusts Antonia, Walker lets Bowman live but warns her that he’ll be coming to collect the debt if she tries to stray one iota from the side of right. While glad that it didn’t turn messy, Antonia understands the loss that Walker has been through and doesn’t blame him for his anger.
After their mission is over and Santa Blanca has splintered, Antonia and the team were redeployed a few months later to Bolivia to rescue the compromised CIA agents and tackle a splinter cell of rebel forces. Antonia and her team pose as a mercenary for hire and befriend the leaders of the gangs carrying out smuggling operations. Assisting the Ghosts is CIA handler Karen Bowman and a local fisherman using the alias Señor Sonrisa, who is a CIA informant. Each gang leader provides clues to El Invisible’s identity before Antonia assassinates them. Eventually, the Ghosts’s notoriety grows to where El Invisible recruits them into Santa Blanca, erasing the Ghosts’s identities and staging their death. However, El Invisible is aware of their true identities and has them imprisoned. The Ghosts escape and, with the help from Señor Sonrisa, recover the handheld device El Invisible uses to run Santa Blanca’s smuggling network anonymously and seemingly kills El Invisible. When the device is decrypted, it unleashes a virus that compromises the CIA. Antonia deduces that Señor Sonrisa is actually El Invisible, and that he orchestrated the operation to escape Santa Blanca, attack the CIA and disappear for good. Unable to explain Señor Sonrisa’s motive for attacking them, the CIA spends the next two years tracking him. He is eventually found in Arizona, and Antonia is assigned a mission to kill him. She makes her way to Señor Sonrisa’s fishing cabin and assassinates him.
Not long after the assassination, Antonia and the team return to Bolivia. The cocaine trade has collapsed in the aftermath of Operation Kingslayer and, with Pac Katari’s death, the Kataris 26 have descended into in-fighting. To restore order, the Bolivian government has tried to rebuild the tactical police unit Unidad with special forces from across Latin America. Now known as “Los Extranjeros”, these remnants of Unidad prove to be corrupt and seize control of cocaine production. When Sonsira’s data breach in the CIA compromises the identities of every active agent in Bolivia, the Ghosts return to extract the compromised agents. Their mission goes awry when their helicopter is shot down moments after they enter Bolivian airspace. They regroup and rescue a CIA field officer code-named Socrates. As Los Extranjeros are better-armed, trained and organised than Unidad, extracting the compromised agents proves impossible. Socrates instead proposes that the Ghosts target Los Extranjeros’ commanders and rebuild the Kataris 26. Their actions prompt Los Extranjeros’ commanding officer, Colonel Merlo, to take charge of the remaining forces. When Merlo is killed, Los Extranjeros tears itself apart, and evidence of their crimes causes a political scandal that upends the Bolivian government. The Ghosts and Socrates depart, questioning whether this will be enough to change the course of Bolivia’s future. Regardless of the answer, Antonia and the team leave Bolivia for good.
WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST
In 2021, Walker, Nomad and Hill were deployed in the Middle-East running standard counter-terrorism operations under Vaughan’s command. On February 22nd, 2022, Walker saves the life of Antonia in Afghanistan. Nomad, although wounded and bleeding, still kept on firing her assault rifle while Walker used his right hand to pull her to the nearest building for safety, providing covering fire with his revolver until they could be extracted from the hot zone. After this incident, tensions rise as Walker captures and tortures a prisoner in an allied village in the Middle East. On the same tour, he kills his commanding officer, Vaughan, because Vaughan killed a civilian in an allied village. Disgusted by Walker’s actions, a rift is driven between the two. On July 20th, 2022, Walker officially leaves the United States Army following a brief investigation. Antonia serves until the end of the mission, completing several operations before being called for deployment to Auroa.
GHOST RECON: BREAKPOINT
Sometime in the mid-2020s, Skell Technology comes under increasing public scrutiny when they face mounting evidence that its products are being used by corrupt regimes. The situation escalates further when the USS Seay, an American cargo ship, sinks off the coast of the Auroa archipelago, and the island chain cuts all communication to the outside world. In response, CIA Deputy Director Peter Miles starts Operation Greenstone in 2025, deploying a Ghost Recon platoon to re-establish contact with Auroa and determine the circumstances of the sinking. The insertion ends in disaster when the helicopters carrying the platoon to the island are taken down by a swarm of drones. Antonia survives the crash, but Midas is missing in action, Holt is critically injured, and Weaver is executed by Cole Walker, a former Ghost-turned-leader of an elite paramilitary group called the “Wolves”. Antonia gets in contact with Mads Schulz, an ex-United States Marine and de facto leader of the homesteaders who lived on Auroa before Skell Tech’s arrival. Mads reveals that the homesteaders were forced into hiding by a private military company employed by Skell Tech called Sentinel, who had been hired for security following a terrorist bombing on the island, but has now overthrown Skell Tech and declared martial law over the archipelago. Antonia reunites with Josiah Hill, and the two discuss how to approach the situation on Auroa. Antonia, following Hill’s leads, encounters Skell’s chief mathematician Maurice Fox and his daughter, Harmony, and discovers that all of Auroa is surrounded by a massive network of drones that prevents anyone from entering or leaving.
After determining that Skell Tech CEO Jace Skell, who disappeared shortly after Sentinel’s coup, is the only one who can lift the drone perimeter, Antonia seeks him out. Upon reaching Skell, Antonia discovers Hill has been secretly working with Walker and the two offer Antonia a place by their side. Antonia refuses and evacuates Skell to Erewhon. Skell reveals he was responsible for the sinking of the Seay due to it carrying dangerous technology off the island, but shows Antonia video footage in which Walker and Trey Stone, the founder and owner of Sentinel, discuss a project codenamed “Wonderland”. Skell says that he will hack one of the pylons that control the drone perimeter, but needs the assistance of several Skell Tech colleagues who are scattered around the archipelago.
During the search for one of the employees, Antonia reaches out to the Outcasts, a group of former Skell Tech employees who quit Skell Tech and formed a resistance group in opposition to Skell’s increasing interests in trans-humanism, led by Haruhi Ito and her brother Diagoroh. While assisting one of Skell’s colleagues, Antonia discovers Haruhi and Diagoroh handled the Skell Tech bombing; they had intended only to damage the building as a protest against Skell’s trans-humanist projects, but they were not aware the building was occupied and had underestimated the explosive power of their bomb. Antonia berates them for their recklessness, but continues working with them after recovering Skell’s colleague. Maurice reveals the identity of a mole in Skell Tech who had been assisting him and attempts to meet her, but he is killed by the Wolves and the mole is kidnapped. Antonia rescues her, killing Hill in the process, and continues to investigate the Wolves’ activities. She discovers that Walker’s “Wonderland” project is an operation to use a submarine outfitted with drone-equipped torpedoes to assassinate key national figures, hoping to trigger a third world war as a way of “cleaning” the world and ridding it of corruption. After finding and killing Walker, Antonia assists Skell in hacking the drone pylon, using the drones to destroy Walker’s submarine before it departs.
In the wake of Walker’s death, Stone consolidates his power over Auroa, Skell Tech, and Sentinel. Antonia returns to Erewhon and is congratulated for thwarting the Wonderland Scheme, but acknowledges that his work on Auroa is not finished. Skell observes the drone swarm above Auroa acting strangely, commenting that the hacked pylon appears to have developed emergent behavior. During her redeployment to Auroa, she establishes a connection with several familiar faces. The first of which is Agent Sam Fisher.
Fisher is deployed to Auroa alongside his friend Victor Coste, under the guise of working for the latter’s private security company, Paladin 9. While Coste is ostensibly working alongside Sentinel to provide logistical support, the duo are actually investigating the kidnappings of military specialists that are traced back to an individual on the island known as “The Strategist.” Fisher and Antonia decide to team up when it is discovered that Midas is alive and is being held by the Strategist for a top-secret program known as Project CLAW; an artificial intelligence hive mind that enables human-controlled drone swarms that can be used for military applications. After contacting and enlisting the help of system analyst Hollie Mackenzie, entomologist Willem Van Dyke, patent legal advisor Stephanie Burgess, and former US Army general Reggie Paxton, Antonia and Fisher discover The Strategist is Leon Fairrow, a billionaire industrialist and head of weapons manufacturing conglomerate Lomax-Fairrow. Fairrow and his partner, US Senator Michael Lomax, are part of a conspiracy that involves high-ranking members of various US government agencies and private development firms to create the drones. Fearing that Fairrow was not reliable and concerned about the kidnappings, the CIA and the Department of Defense had asked Fourth Echelon to investigate. After infiltrating Project CLAW’s research facility and facing off against an array of drones, Fisher and Antonia capture Fairrow and rescue Midas, who is evacuated to Erewhon to recover with Holt. Meanwhile, using a brief window provided by Mackenzie in the drone swarm that is protecting the island, Fisher and Coste evacuate onboard the C-147B Paladin with Fairrow in-tow and force him to testify before Congress; hoping his testimony will convince them to officially launch a US military invasion of Auroa to remove Sentinel from the archipelago.
Later on, Scott Mitchell informs Antonia that, in the wake of Wonderland’s and Project CLAW’s failure, Trey Stone has allied with remnants of the Raven’s Rock and Bodark, whom Mitchell had previously encountered. With Raven’s Rock’s help, Stone intends to launch a massive attack on the United States called “Operation Kingmaker”, in which he will utilize drones loaded with chemical weapons provided by Bodark to conduct a mass assassination of U.S. officials, allowing Kingmaker’s designated survivor to take control of the American government. Mitchell tasks Antonia with hunting down and eliminating Stone’s allies and destroying key components of Kingmaker to thwart the attack. After Antonia has dealt with Bodark, she tracks Stone to a Skell Tech factory, where Stone reveals he intends to launch the chemical weapon drones against the entire Auroa archipelago in revenge for the Ghosts thwarting his plans. With the help of the Outcasts and Haruhi Ito, Antonia is able to stop Stone, killing him and destroying the drones before they can activate.
The last of these communications comes when Karen Bowman is deployed by the CIA to Auroa after the collapse of Sentinel Corp and the Wolves, which has resulted in renewed interest in the island and its technologies by foreign powers. To mitigate the imminent global crisis, Bowman has been directed to ensure the stewardship of Auroa is handed over to The Outcasts, led by Haruhi Ito, in order to ensure that Auroa becomes a sovereign ally of the United States. As such, they task Antonia and the Ghosts with supporting the Outcasts by eliminating the last remaining pockets of enemy resistance across the island. To resist the Ghosts, the remnants of Sentinel have subsequently called upon reinforcements in the form of Bodark, a rogue elite Russian Spetsnaz unit.
Team Kingslayer redeploys once more only to find the Base of Operations of the Outcasts has been attacked and raided with no survivors. They discover the Bodarks have again returned and have taken over the Island completely and have established their Base of Operations on Golem Island. They move ahead with the Operation anyway and rescue Haruhi. After that Ghosts conquer the Island region by region by killing or capturing the top 3 Bodark Lieutenants. The Bodarks’ main agenda was to steal Skell Tech and frame Russia by attacking the US Navy who had formed a perimeter outside the Island. Each of the three chief commanders of Bodark had their own idea of doing this. Fyodor Archinov tried to provoke the US into War by launching Ballistic Missiles at their Ships from Walkers’ old Base in Fen Bog. The Ghosts were able to stop this in the Last Minute. Archinov was captured. The Second Commander, Vassili Kropotkine, was to record executions of civilians and broadcasting it so that the US Army attacks under external pressure. The Ghosts were able to stop the massacres, and killed Kropotkine. Kostas Tchertkov’s plan was to lay the evidence of the Bodarks being involved in taking over Auroa and hacking SVR (Russian Secret Service) servers to make it look like they were the ones who ordered Auroa to be taken over. All these three operations were specifically designed to make it look like Russia was preparing for war with the United States. Why exactly remained unknown to the Ghosts until they eliminated the last commander: the Operation on Auroa by the Bodarks was conducted by a former Russian Oligarchess known as Katja Maximowa. She fell in disgrace with the Russian Aristocracy and Government. She wanted to exact revenge upon the Government for punishing her father and herself. Her plan was to frame Russia for everything the Bodarks did on Auroa, hoping it would drag the country into a war with the United States. Maximowa knew very well that Russia wouldn’t survive a war with the United States.
Maximowa contacted the Ghosts after they found all the messages she left for the Bodark commanders; she threatened the Ghosts to stop interfering with her. They traced the signal back to Golem Island, where the Bodark had set up their HQ. The Ghosts set foot on the island and received another voice message from Maximowa. She even tried to bribe the Ghosts into her Service, but Antonia swore to her it would be her end.
The Ghosts did everything to ensure that Maximowa wouldn’t escape Golem Island by hacking her navigation computer, destroying every piece of technology waiting to be shipped off Golem Island and by infiltrating the Lava-Site on Golem Island. Nothing could stop the Ghosts in the end, especially under Antonia’s command. Before fighting Maximowa, Karen Bowman orders Antonia to kill her, while Haruhi Ito wants Antonia to capture her, to answer for her crimes against Auroa. Wanting to see things through to the end, for the sake of her team and her family back home, Antonia kills Maximowa. Though the Outcasts are displeased, Auroa ends up freed from the Bodark, under the Control of the Outcasts, who now proclaim Auroa as an independent Island Nation. Antonia returns to the United States alongside her team for debriefing, and seeks to retire to “make up for lost time” with her son, who is about to become a father himself.
LATER YEARS
During the R&R period following the events on Auroa, Antonia finds herself questioning several things. Most of them are about her work with the Ghosts, and her overall work with the CIA. Who she can really trust, if she's really doing the right thing, so on and so forth. Additionally to this, Antonia begins questioning things about herself, ultimately coming to the realization that she may not be a woman (or entirely one).
As such, she decides to (with the help of her team and her family) make several social changes regarding his presentation. Eventually, too, Antonia begins microdosing testosterone and opting for a hysterectomy, which only adds to the time out of the field. Regardless, Antonia will once more find himself prepared for whatever mission lies ahead.
