Wanderer (also known as: Wanda; Lives in the Stars; Rides the Beast) is a member of a parasitic alien species, known on Earth as souls, who invade Earth and take control of the bodies of its inhabitants. Although she is one soul in many other souls who share their Mothers' cells, she is different from the rest of her family. She arrives years after the invasion has been completed and the vast majority of humans on Earth have been captured, when the war is over.
