She is the daughter of [[Madame Rouge]]. In the ''[[Beast Boy]]'' mini-series, she sought revenge against Beast Boy for killing her mother, her insanity having twisted her mother's death as the deliberate fault of Doctor Caulder and Beast Boy when it was merely an accident. She attempted to frame Beast Boy for the murders of his former cast members in an old TV show. After being tracked down by Beast Boy, Gemini reveals the bound and gagged forms of Vicky Valiant and Tim Bender, two of Gar's old co-stars whom she intends to murder. She is thwarted by [[Beast Boy]], [[Bette Kane|Flamebird]], and [[Dick Grayson|Nightwing]] (Nightwing having come to investigate the attacks, he saw through her attempt to impersonate Beast Boy as she attacked him when she failed to address Nightwing by his real name during their fight). Subsequently, she joined her mother's old group, the [[Brotherhood of Evil]]. Her first mission with them was an arms deal with [[Penguin (comics)|the Penguin]] in [[Blüdhaven]],<ref name=b61>''Batgirl'' #61 (April 2005)</ref> but they were defeated by [[Cassandra Cain|Batgirl]].
