Lorena Payan

The woman who appears to have saved the world, Lorena is the CEO of Foresight Corp., the company who sent five astronauts into space to save the Earth from the Icarus Asteroid.

History
At 14, she showed prominence in poisons while her father founded Foresight around the time.

Before the Event, she befriended Astrid and developed a much deeper fondness for her which resulted in Payan appointing her for her services after blatantly lying about The Event and her husband's safety.

After The Event, she made Mayes develop a failsafe in Powell's head to have him obey every command she says, unfortunately, it didn't work and resulted in him fleeing to Mexico in defiance.

Mayes, also in defiance, resigned from Foresight and swore fight back against Payan, causing her to appoint former agent and Powell's wife, Astrid to help in protecting her.

While pursued by Mayes, her plane was attacked by Simon Simms and Jameela Nayar which resulted in a lengthy chase and fiery confrontation including Noble and Filipe Rendoza.

Trivia
