Lev, Defiance

Lev (Hannah Cheesman)

Lev was a guest character who appeared in flashbacks. In season 2, episode 5, regular lesbian character Meh Yewll had hallucinations of an old friend and female lover, Lev, begging for forgiveness because she was dying. Lev had killed herself prior to the events of the show, and was trying to convince Yewll to do the same. Lev had been part of a team, along with Yewll, experimenting on humans and developing diseases that would only affect them. When her guilt caught up to her, she slit her wrists with broken glass and died in her lab.

Lev appeared again in season 2, episode 12, when Yewll was in hiding to avoid getting arrested, and was accompanied by an illusion of Lev, who kept her company.
