Nicholette "Nikki" Gold is a fictional character, a woman in the Earth-691 timeline of the fictional Marvel Universe, genetically engineered to live on the planet Mercury. As such, she has a superhuman ability to withstand heat and ultraviolet radiation, and can see clearly in very bright light. She is bald, although she expels body heat through her head in a low-temperature flame resembling hair in shape. She was the sixth member of the Guardians of the Galaxy, and is noted for her acrobatic and sharpshooting skill. She first appeared in Marvel Presents #4, and was created by Steve Gerber (who did not call her Nicholette Gold).

During her time on the team, Nikki had a romantic relationship with Charlie-27, though they later amicably separated. She became attracted to newcomer Talon though he simply wished to remain friends.
