Sinara was a major antagonist in Season 5 of Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. She was a Kree warrior as well as the bodyguard, henchman and lover of the Kree nobleman Kasius. For years, they oversaw the Lighthouse, a space station located amongst the free-floating debris field that used to be the planet Earth. However, in 2091, their operation was jeopardized when agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. appeared from the past in order to save humanity from Kree oppression.
History[]
Early life[]
Sinara once served in a Kree battle fleet under the command of Kasius. During a previous campaign, Kasius attempted to retreat, when two of his generals tried to stop him. However, they were both killed by Sinara, who agreed that the battlefield wasn't a place for someone like Kasius. Kasius then successfully managed to hide Sinara's involvement in the assassinations of the generals, and the two eventually became inseparable. Kasius' retreat cost the Kree Empire a strategic outpost and the lives of thousands of warriors, resulting in Kasius' own father, Taryan, permanently exiling both of them from Hala as punishment for their failure.
At some point following the destruction of Earth, Kasius and Sinara took control of the Lighthouse, a space station that housed the last remnants of the human race. A ruthless member of the Kree Watch, Sinara made sure that the Kree laws were obeyed by their human slaves.
Recruiting Jemma Simmons[]
In 2091, agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. appeared on the Lighthouse, having been transported to the future by the Chronicom Enoch. Sinara would unknowingly encounter one such agent, Jemma Simmons, when she intervened in a fight between two humans who were brawling over food. One of Kasius' servants, Reese, was injured and Simmons stepped in to help him. After killing the man who wounded Reese, Sinara took Simmons to Kasius' suites.
When Simmons was brought before Kasius, he asked Sinara if the incident with Simmons occurred during the food providing. She responded positively, so Kasius ordered her to carry out a "Renewal". Later, when Kasius was not satisfied with the appearance of Reese's scar following his stabbing, he ordered Sinara to kill him.
Inhuman auction[]
After the battle between Ben and Melinda May, Kasius accused Ben of lying about the existence of additional S.H.I.E.L.D. agents who travelled through time with Quake and Jemma Simmons. Despite protestations from Leo Fitz, Sinara killed Ben with her spheres.
Kasius' brother Faulnak demanded that Sinara, whom Faulnak referred to as Kasius' stray and best Kree warrior, must fight Quake to the death in lieu of another Inhuman. Kasius was initially reluctant to his brother's demand but acquiesced after Faulnak implied that disobeying would jeopardize Kasius' attempts to gain their father's favour. Sinara was visibly taken aback by Kasius' attempt to justify his decision in terms of personal advancement, as Kasius had promised that Quake and her opponent would fight to the death. Quake ultimately defeated Sinara but did not kill her. Fitz rendered her unconscious with an ICER while attempting to free Quake and Simmons.
Hunting down fugitives[]
As soon as she recovered from the assault, Sinara went to Kasius' suite. She witnessed his brother Faulnak berating him for his lack of control over the Lighthouse. Kasius assured him that Sinara and the Kree Watch would soon sort out the problem by finding the fugitives. However, Faulnak rejected the idea and ordered his own warrior Maston-Dar to find out the fugitives.
Later, Sinara witnessed Flint kill the Vicar and preparing to fight the other warrior present. Sinara knocked out Flint intending to use him as bait to lure the others. Her plan worked as Phil Coulson and Alphonso Mackenzie arrived to rescue him. She was soon joined by Maston-Dar and they fought the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but they succeeded in rescuing him. They figured out that they were hiding in the Salvage area which was sealed from the inside by using Flint's powers. Maston-Dar began to drill down into the wall in order to capture the agents. As he had finished, Sinara readied her spheres and killed him.
She returned to Kasius' suite and informed him and Faulnak that the fugitives escaped to the surface of the Earth. Faulnak immediately ordered her to ready a ship in search of the fugitives with Maston-Dar in charge of the operation. However, she confessed she killed Maston-Dar. Faulnak was surprised by this action and he was impressed with her and also informed how he underestimated her. Faulnak gladly offered Maston's position to Sinara and promised her a great rank within the Kree Empire. However, this move greatly angered Kasius who responded by stabbing his brother with a bayonet and informed her of his love for her and also informed him that she was the one who killed his generals who were preventing him from fleeing the battlefield. She stood smiling and witnessed Kasius killing him.
Quest for Quake[]
Kasius was informed of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents using a Trawler to escape to the surface and asked Sinara if she intended to go for a hunt to capture the fugitives. Sinara agreed to Kasius' proposal. Kasius asked her to try and bring Quake alive or at least reclaim her body if she killed her, intending to keep it as a trophy. Sinara reached the surface during a gravity storm and managed to locate the crashed Trawler. She searched for the agents, but found no trace of them. She informed Kasius of the situation through her camera and also noted they might have been eliminated by the Vrellnexians. She was ordered to follow their trail nonetheless.
Disguising herself as a True Believer, Sinara managed to infiltrate the Zephyr One during a gravity storm when the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were going to return to the Lighthouse. She waited for the right opportunity to attack and she got it when Quake arrived to manually activate the thrusters of the plane. She attacked Quake by surprise and defeated her. As she was about to kill her, she was stopped by a retractable claw used by Deke Shaw. She dispatched him easily and focused her efforts to bring down Quake. Both women fought each other even when the gravity was zero due to the turbulence. Sinara readied her knife and leaped towards Quake, intending to deliver the killing blow. As she got closer, Quake raised a broken piece of railing and impaled Sinara through the heart, killing her.
Legacy[]
Sinara's body was left on the Zephyr One after her death. When the ship docked, Kasius and the Kree Watch soon arrived to search for the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, but when they found Sinara's body, Kasius was shocked and traumatised. Kasius even tried to resurrect her as did previously with Yo-Yo Rodriguez and Tess but the couldn't as the Kree doctor explained the biology of Kree was complicated compared to the simple Human biology. Sinara's death completely broke Kasius' confidence as he claimed everyone including Sinara and himself had failed and the respect he sought was lost. Nevertheless, he decided to drink Odium and take a final stand against S.H.I.E.L.D to prevent the agents from returning to the past so that his father could take over the Earth before its destruction which would not only help him achieve his glory, but also would enable him to join her in the afterlife.
