Biography[]
Erica Gonzalez lived in Washington, D.C. with her boyfriend, Michael Lin, and was part a local group of radical environmental activists protesting bio-engineering and its effects on native ecosystems.
In December 2015, the group flew to New York City and planned to set fire to a hybridized Christmas tree at the Broadway Emporium, but they were unable to get past the local security guards and forced to return home. Gonzalez unknowingly contracted the Green Poison during her time in Manhattan, and showed no signs due to being an asymptomatic carrier.
A week later, Gonzalez and her group tried to enact their plan again, this time targeting a Christmas tree at a local mall in D.C.. However, ISAC wiretapped their communications and alerted the NSA, who arrested Gonzalez and Lin and brought them to their Detention Center for interrogation. Gonzalez was eventually confined to the psychiatric ward, while Lin was placed in quarantine after showing symptoms of the Green Poison; he died shortly afterwards.
Gonzalez remained in the Detention Center for several weeks, even after the facility was loaned to the D.C. Police Department to house an overflow of over five hundred protestors arrested during the Unite D.C. rallies. It was only after a major outbreak of the Green Poison among the detainees that the staff realized Gonzalez was asymptomatic. At the orders of Secretary of Homeland Security Calvin McManus, the NSA moved her to isolation and placed the entire complex on lockdown before evacuating to the Descent Facility.
Tom Clancy's The Division 2[]
The NSA Detention Center was eventually taken over by the True Sons, who used it to imprison disloyal members and perform gruesome experiments on civilians, including Gonzalez. A Strategic Homeland Division agent managed to infiltrate through the sewers and release her and the other prisoners. Weakened and afraid, Gonzalez stumbled out of her cell and begged the agent to stay away before she was shot and killed by a True Sons sniper. Manny Ortega later expressed regret that they were unable to save her, but took solace that she was free from the True Sons' torture.
