History: Lian Harper was the daughter of superhero Speedy and assassin for hire Cheshire.

(Batman Plus #1) - Arsenal approached Nightwing when he learned that KGBeast had Cheshire, and was going to sell her to a group of Quraci nationals. Arsenal said they'd surely kill her, and he couldn't allow the mother of his child to die. Nightwing said Batman was a more fitting choice to take on KGBeast, and set up a meeting despite Arsenal's objections that Batman was creepy. It turned out that KGBeast scammed the nationals out of their money, had they cash deposited in Cheshire's Zurich bank account, and went there with her to take it for himself. KGBeast's men were holding Lian Harper and her babysitters hostage, so Cheshire was forced to cooperate. Nightwing saved Lian and the Santos, and Arsenal and Batman took down KGBeast.
