Nyssa al Ghul

Nyssa al Ghul, also known as Nyssa Raatko, is a member of the League of Assassins and the daughter of the predecessor of the current Ra's al Ghul.

Assault the Iron Temple
Nyssa arrived in front of the Iron Temple with a squad of assassins from the League of Assassins. They quickly eliminate any opposition they face in the Temple, but Malcolm lead them further down into the catacombs. She questions the validity of the claim that the artifact is in the Iron Temple, but Malcolm claims he knows it from a friend in occultism. They later break open a double-sided door in the catacombs and she, Malcolm and Talibah enter the chamber and they are encountered by a huge horde of monks.

She along with Malcolm and Talibah were forced to fight through the large number of monks and after succeeding to do so, she called for help when Talibah was hurt by the fight. She was present when Malcolm tortured Rael Rha'as for information on the artifact and when he beheaded him. She then led Malcolm to a seperate door where she and a few assassins entered. Traps killed half of her squad and ultimately she found a circular chamber, which she alerted Malcolm to, but became poisoned by the gas spread there, causing her to hallucinate Sara Lance and others.

She was found still hallucinating by Amanda Waller and Cupid, shooting arrows at a wall. When Waller wanted to continue, Cupid held Nyssa off by engaging her in a fight, but Nyssa proved to be victorious over both her and Waller, as she escorts them upstairs to the chamber where Malcolm had control over the fight. When they placed the artifact on the ground, Nyssa was horrified when Waller executed Talibah in cold blood.

Nyssa and Malcolm were forced in a standoff against Waller and her operatives. Waller left Captain Boomerang to deal with them, but eventually he escaped. She stayed behind with the body of Talibah while Malcolm chased him and Ravan Nassar.

Nyssa waited with the body of Talibah as Malcolm raced to the rescue of Ravan Nassar. While he was busy, Nyssa searches the catacombs finding another tunnel out of the temple. This is the way she suggests to Malcolm and they take it, leaving the body of Talibah behind. Malcolm and Nyssa fought the soldiers outside the tunnel where Malcolm reveals he had a plane waiting for them. She pays her respects to the assassin guard at the plane for the death of Talibah. She then learns Malcolm is setting course for Starling City where ARGUS is going after Thea Queen.
