Stella Christoffersen is a Danish-born detective and journalist living in the central United States. She is quite cold and stern, always more focused on her research about encrypting and uncovering criminal activity. She usually appears as calculative and a strong figure by most, despite being paraplegic, making her bound to a wheelchair more often than not. She is stressed, affectionate, and needy but does direct actions more than words, especially with her close colleagues.
