Kate Connors is Faith Connors’ twin sister and polar opposite. More sensible and reliable, and maybe a little more naïve, Kate believes in the “good” of the City of Glass, and joined the police force to help preserve it. She doesn’t like Faith’s clientele.

Kate and her sister, Faith, had seen their mother killed during the November Riots, crushed to death as others sought to escape.
