As Nancy / Chi Chi's father, he ultimately sacrifices himself to defeat Andre and save her. Nancy / Chi Chi (played by Ouyang Nana) appears in Bleeding Steel.
Nancy / Chi Chi is a young woman suffering from nightmares caused by memories connected to her resurrection and genetic experimentation.

After recovering her identity, she helps Lin Dong survive the final confrontation. Andre (played by Callan Mulvey) appears in Bleeding Steel.
Andre is a former special forces soldier transformed into a failing cyborg after an unsuccessful genetic enhancement procedure.
