Amanda Haley

"Her demeanor was unlike that of the others; this one seemed intent on something, as if she still clung to hope. What a waste. Still, there was something about her."

- Infested Kerrigan observes Haley

Amanda Haley was a young, blond-haired female Terran medic who possessed telekenetic powers. She was infested under supervision of the Queen of Blades herself.

Early Life
Haley, had spent two years serving on a space platform as a Medic. Although she possessed telekenetic powers, a "gift" that sometimes drew the attention of others, she somehow escaped the notice of those in the Ghost Program. However, she, along with her team, did not escape the attention of the Queen of Blades, imprisoned in a cell on a space platform infested by the zerg.

Prisoner
Haley spent a week in captivity, listening as the cell doors of her companions opened as they were taken to whatever fate awaited them. She tried using her psionic powers to undo the lock of her cell but a combination of fatigue and some kind of psionic dampening in the station made her efforts useless.

Eventually she came to the conclusion that if she could save her strength, somehow ferret away a reserve of her energies, then perhaps she could store enough energy to gain freedom.

The gamble paid off in that when the cell door opened, Haley unleashed her psionic powers on the infested terran sent to retrieve her, destroying its skull. She thus made a break for the hanger.

Infestation
"I applaud your effort, though it was in vain. I am Kerrigan, matriarch of the Zerg. I would know your name."

- Infested Kerrigan

"Just go ahead and get it over with."

- Haley

"Oh, we shall."

- Infested Kerrigan confronts Haley

Haley's escape was doomed from the start, considering that Infested Kerrigan had jettisoned all of the craft there. An infested terran sampled her blood. Haley was not aware of the results, but it mattered little; she was infested just the same. Due to some incompatibilities between her genetic code and the formula that Kerrigan was using (which Kerrigan knew about), Haley became a slobbering, malformed, half-Zerg, half-human genetic defect, robbed of any humanity or intelligence.
