Nebula (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

Nebula is the secondary antagonist of Guardians of the Galaxy and one of the main characters/anti hero of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. She is the adopted sister of Gamora and sister of Thanos.

Early life
Nebula was born on the planet Luphom to unnamed parents. However, Thanos killed her parents in front of her and took Nebula. Since her childhood, Nebula was molded into being a weapon and one of Thanos' personal assassins. When she was young, Nebula at first relied upon Gamora, as she was the only one who could give Nebula what she always wanted: a sister when facing Thanos. However, the two sisters were forced to battle one another in training with Thanos watching with glee. Nebula came to resent Gamora, as she was all the family she had left, but Gamora turned away from her. The grudge would last for many years.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
Prior to the movie, Nebula attempted to steal Anulax batteries from the Sovereign. However, she was immediately captured and offered to the Guardians of the Galaxy if they destroyed a creature called the Abilisk.
