Kim Süskind was a member of The Four.

Kim Süskind was the daughter of a German rocket scientist, who was a part of Nazi Germany's brain trust, and Randall Dowling's lover. She is described as the most dangerous of the Four, capable of instantly bursting people's heads. She, too, along with Randall, was killed in their meeting with Elijah Snow due to a well-laid trap set by him, whereby Süskind fell to her death when Elijah summoned a shiftship from the ground beneath them.
