Kim Toy is a fictional character from the Wild Cards series of books.
History[]
Little is known of Kim Toy's life prior to her association with the Egyptian Freemasons. Kim's ace is the ability to release pheromones which causes those around her think she is incredibly beautiful and makes them very eager to please her. In one instance, both Croyd Crenson and Devil John Darlingfoot fell victim to her power. She was married to the joker known as Red and worked with him to help the Freemason's leader, a psychotic ace known as the Astronomer, achieve world domination.
After the raid on the Freemason's headquarters at the Cloisters the secret society was left in disarray. Kim fled to the West Coast to stay with relatives, while Red remained in New York.
During 1986 Wild Card Day Kim was among the Astronomer's minions who joined him in an attempt to steal Tachyon's ship and when Fortunato went to fight the Astronomer attempted to use pheromones to stop him, but Fortunato counteracted them the effect, then telling her she could still leave if she wanted. Kim decided to abandon the Astronomer and flee. She was never heard from again.
Wild Card Traits[]

Furthermore, her victims can lose control and desire her to the point of raping her.
