Mahnahmi Lynx

Mahnahmi Lynx

Mahnahmi Lynx is the name of the younger sister of Philip Lynx, better known as Flinx. She has appeared in several of Alan Dean Foster’s Humanx Commonwealth novels, first in "Orphan Star" and then in "Reunion". Her age in "Orphan Star" was estimated at between nine and ten years old. When he encounters her again in "Reunion" she is fifteen and apparently quite attractive, an attribute she flaunts to her advantage whenever possible. Because she was a product of the Meliorare Society’s eugenics experiments, like Flinx, she is gifted with several mental Talents. Mahnahmi, unlike her brother, shows no reluctance against using violence or murder to obtain her goals. Raised by a rich perverted merchant who was the employer of the siblings’ mother, a high-class prostitute, Mahnahmi had none of the advantages of her brother while growing up. The girl has implied that she killed her father just to gain control of his fortune and companies so that she might continue to search out her history. She has many of the same Talents as does Flinx, minor telepathy and strong empathy, along with an incredibly strong telekinetic ability which she claims only manifest itself if she becomes extremely angry. This is shown in "Orphan Star".

Mahnahmi also appears to be trained in combat situations as in seen in "Reunion" where she single handedly defeats a squadron of AAnn who have seized her ship and imprisoned her crew.
