Jagged Alliance: DG, Jagged Alliance 2[]
"Stella's friend, Anita, was a street performer throughout Europe and North Africa. Her mime act was panned in Paris, booed in Greece and stoned in Tripoli. But after meeting Miss Trammel, Mouse joined A.I.M., and brought her uncanny silence with her." - A.I.M. Dossier, Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games
"Anita's stint with the organization was short and rather quiet. Known for her uncanny ability to move about unnoticed, and not much else, Mouse handed in her resignation at the same time as Dr. Margaret "Stella" Trammel. It is our understanding that they moved to the Virgin Islands together where Backman serves as nurse/receptionist at Trammel's newly opened medical clinic." -Jagged Alliance 2, Alumni Gallery
Equipment (JA:DG)[]
- Colt 1911
- Camo Kit
- Radio
- 2-pocket Assault Vest
Jagged Alliance 3[]
"While Anita, who recently re-joined the ranks of A.I.M., will not disclose her motivations, there is speculation that her relationship with Dr. Margaret "Stella" Trammel has fractured. Still others believe she was sent by that same woman on a very specific (and very secret) mission that required reestablishing old mercenary contacts. Whatever her reasons, Mouse's abilities to move about undetected are uncanny and would make a valuable addition to any team." - A.I.M. Dossier, Jagged Alliance 3
