History

Origin & Early Years

Jiaying was an Inhuman active throughout most of the 20th Century.

In 1945, she was among many Chinese prisoners sent to Austria to be experimented on by the Hydra scientist Werner Reinhardt. Jiaying and the other prisoners were forced to take hold of a strange device called "the Obelisk" that killed everyone who came into contact with it except for Jiaying. Before Dr. Reinhardt could dissect her to discover why she could touch the device, his facility was raided by the SSR and the prisoners were liberated.[1]

Post-WWII

At some point, Jiaying underwent Terrigenesis. As a result of her transformation, Jiaying stopped aging, and would look the same for the next several decades. She used this gift to counsel young Inhumans through their own transformations, one of which was Gordon, whose eyes were covered over with skin and could not control his ability to teleport.[2]

At some point, Jiaying met Cal, who she married and with him had a daughter, Daisy.[1]

"Death" & Legacy

In 1989, while her daughter was still an infant, Jiaying was captured by Hydra agents, and was sent back to Austria where Dr. Reinhardt, now known as Daniel Whitehall, was starting his research up again after he was secretly freed from prison by Hydra agents in the U.S. government. Whitehall recognized Jiaying as the woman who could touch the Obelisk and live, and was surprised to see she hadn't aged in the 40 years since he had seen her. Making good on his promise, Daniel Whitehall dissected Jiaying.

Dr. Whitehall had Jiaying's organs planted inside him, restoring his youth. Hydra left her butchered remains out in the wilderness like refuse. Cal eventually found his wife's remains, and swore to get his revenge on Daniel Whitehall.[1]

However, Jiaying somehow either survived Whitehall's removal of her organs or was revived and eventually returned to Afterlife where she chose to assist her daughter adapt to her newly imbued powers. Her survival is known to Cal, whom she refuses access to Skye, but at present Skye is unaware of her identity.[3]
