25 years after the end of the Locust War, Reyna was the leader of an Outsider village, taking over the role after her husband's death. She relied upon her brother-in-law, Oscar, to train and protect the villagers. JD Fenix and Delmont Walker, having left the Coalition of Ordered Governments and gone AWOL, sought refuge with Reyna's village after warning her of a COG retaliation to the Outsider's raids against the COG. When Marcus was in the pods, he felt Reyna, and told Kait that the Swarm did not pod Reyna and were treating her specially.
