There's Another New, Totally Mysterious Clone Named M.K.

According to cocreators John Fawcett and Graeme Manson, she is:

  • "[A] slightly traumatized clone who has a deep past."
  • "Someone who knows more than us."
  • "A slippery character."
  • "Very elusive. And quite highly skilled and very smart."
  • "Paranoid. She's very security conscious . . . She's purposefully avoided contact with the sisters to keep herself safe, and Sarah is now trying to draw her out of the shadows and trying to utilize the information that she has . . . but this girl is very unwilling."

Delphine Might Not Be as Dead as You Think She Is

Cocreator Manson said, "Where'd she get hit, the liver? It looked like that's not necessarily fatal." He was also quick to add that it doesn't mean she's alive. "We need the story to drive itself and we need to stay true to that. So, that's the bottom line there." One thing seems to be clear: Delphine is not definitely alive, but she's not definitely dead either.
