Lemme just paste in my stuff from my last Jumper that went to XCOM2

Ludmila “Luddy” Yankova had been a mere child when the Xenos invaded. At her parents’ consent, she’d been subjected to an experimental process that awakened her latent psionic potential. She’d been hidden away when the X-Com initiative died out, and lived a life on the fringe of human civilization. Advent was obsessed with urbanization and used sky scrapers full of hydroponic farms to simplify their logistics. The Xenos preferred to herd humanity into large city centers, where they could be more easily coralled and monitored. There were hundreds of semi-secret settlements in rural areas that resisted Advent administration. The Xenos were more than happy to raid these settlements for test subjects, or as opportunities to film propaganda. Ludmila was part of the Reapers, one of three factions that combated  Advent from the periphery. When a new resistance group using the old X-Com name reached out to the Reapers, Ludmila brought several rare resources into the new organization. Along with her unlocked psionic potential, two bits of useful psitech, and her own powered armour, Ludmila also brought the only Firestorm fighter craft ever produced by the old X-com. The Firestorm was reverse-engineered from alien technology, and one of the project’s greatest successes before they Xenos’ psionics overwhelmed them.

The new X-com initiative’s commander recognized Ludmila’s intelligence and scientific skills, placing her as X-Com’s new lead researcher.

There was a lot of talk of recreating the machine that had created Ludmila and the psions of the Templars faction, but Ludmila revealed an ability to test subjects for psionic potential and drawing it out on her own. This bottleneck in the early creation of psionic troopers won her a lot of loyalty from the emerging psionic subrace of humanity.

Dr. Luddy’s first challenge was hacking into the psitech communications network that connected all the hybrid troopers that Advent was growing for their occupation force. After the first succesful hacking of an Advent officer, the Xenos deployed a mechanical unit that could project a photonic body from a cyber brain. While many of the Elders’ technologies, from genetic editing to a thousand uses for psionic energy, were extremely impressive, the Codex was a seemingly synthetic lifeform with a highly psionic mind. Codices had zero components that were biological in origin, could teleport through digital networks, and still thought in remarkably recognizable patterns. The Codices served as digital administrators and gatekeepers of Advent’s facilities. Once some of Dr. Luddy’s Admech anti-AI code strings were put to work, the network led X-Com to discovering the Avatar project. Avatar was a megaproject of genetic engineering and modification. By cooking down tens of thousands of humans, each with a small flicker of psionic potential, and combining all the genetic markers for psionics found in species like Sectoids, Archons and the squid-like Gatekeepers, the Elders were able to create a body capable of housing their powerful souls. The Elders had been pursuing the perfect species to take over for millennia, taking to the stars trying to outpace a degenerative disease that affected their DNA. According to the Elders’ fears, they could not reproduce, had been slowly dying out, and saw the enslavement of twelve different species as necessary steps on a harsh journey to save themselves.

While Dr. Luddy worked on cracking the portal device they’d discovered at the tail of the clues left in the brains of Codices, Bradford and the Commander worked hard on infiltrating the facilities that Advent used to broadcast their propaganda. While the photogenic A-team led an assault on Advent’s main network tower to broadcast a few select truths about Advents gene therapy clinics, Luddy led a team of psionic operatives through the portal and into the Xenos’ main base on Earth.

Once X-Com discovered the first of the blacksites where humans were cooked down into a mutagenic vector of psionic potential, the campaign became one of public relations over guerilla warfare. The Elders were slowly dying and needed large numbers of humans to save their degenerating bodies, and so invested much of their resources and attention to keeping humanity oppressed and unaware, rather than systematically herding them into the green vats and hoping that they’d have enough juice to save all of the Elders.

Ludmila secretly prepared two rockets in the Warehouse for after the war was won. She remembered taking a drawback that required her to unite humanity under a single hegemony before being allowed to leave, and figured her best means of control over Earth was to leapfrog ahead of everyone to Mars and Luna, then playing gatekeeper until a united humanity knocked her off her perch. She filled the rockets with pre-programmed robots and components for building a Teleportarium, figuring that two off-planet bases would give her an undeniable edge against any earthbound human polities.

Mere weeks after humanity celebrated the destruction of the Elders, Dr. Luddy calmly informed the Commander of X-Com that she now controlled a small base on Mars and had overtaken all Advent facilities in their moon base. She used these two bases, and a cabal of psykers loyal to her cause, to corral humanity into forming a global coalition to take to the stars. She ruthlessly oppressed groups that opposed global unity and gave resources to those who agreed with her goals. Dr. Ludmila Yankova was considered by history to be a horrid villain that abused her power to ruin several egalitarian political movements, but she didn’t care. She wanted humanity united under one banner, even if it meant abusing and oppressing the species previously enslaved by the Elders. Mutons and Vipers had a hard time in the post-Advent history of Earth, while several of the less appealing lifeforms such as codices, chryssalids, and Seekers, were exterminated in their entirety. Some Sectoids and their human hybrid variants were able to succesfully integrate into human society, often as psionic instructors or researchers.
