"You got mutated by radioactive energy? Can I be too? I would probably turn into a giant green monster, right? You know what, whatever. Even if I did become one, I would throw radiation at myself. Maybe."

Nakia Bahadir is a culinary enthusiast and a student at Blackwell High School. She is the best friend of Kamala Khan, and one of the few who know her secret identity as Ms. Marvel.

Early Life
Nakia Bahadir was born in downtown Jersey City, New Jersey to parents hailing from Turkey. A practicing Muslim, Nakia suffered prejudice because of her religion by many of her classmates at pre-school, something which would persist to high school when she entered Blackwell High School. She frequents the Islamic Masjid of Jersey City, where she met Kamala Khan, a fellow outcast and Muslim, and the two became best friends.

At Blackwell, the two became classmates after enrolling at the same time. They would tell each other all of their secrets, desires, and thoughts, and defend one another from bullies such as Victoria Chase and Nathan Prescott. The two of them also met Kate Marsh, an extremely bullied girl, who, while Protestant, did not disrespect their religion, and actually identified with them duo to their shy natures.
