Col. Jennifer Ellis

Director-General Jennifer Ellis

The Director-General of UNISON is Colonel Jennifer Ellis, Royal Air Force, on assignment to the United Nations from the United Kingdom. Among her other qualifications for the post is a long stint with the Ministry of Powers in Britain, dealing with various superhumans and experience with agencies like AEGIS. In fact, Jen Ellis worked several times in the field with Harry Powers (now Director of AEGIS) when the two of them were agents.
Colonel Ellis knows full well how close she skirts to the edge of her authority as Director-General in doing things like aiding the Freedom League and running UNISON overwatch operations that tread on national sovereignty.
Thus far, she hasn’t overstepped her bounds sufficiently for the UN Secretary-General or the Security Council to call her to account, most likely because she gets results.
But it may be just a matter of time.
Col. Ellis finds the restrictions on UNISON operations endlessly frustrating, and is glad to assist heroes like the Freedom League, whose hands are not necessarily tied by the same diplomatic and bureaucratic red tape. She would like to see UNISON become a true international law-enforcement and peacekeeping agency for dealing with superhuman threats, but knows there are many barriers keeping that from happening.
A fit woman in her 50s, Director-General Ellis wears her ashen blond hair stylishly short these days, often tucked under a blue UN beret. She wears a UN peacekeeping uniform with the UNISON badge while on-duty, but can pull off high-class diplomatic formal wear just as easily, when there’s need.
