Nica Pierce

"*What are you gonna do now?"
"I don't know, watch a movie? That doesn't star Jennifer Tilly.*"
—Nica and Glenda.[src]
**Nica Pierce** (born November 25, 1988) is a young, paraplegic woman that was targeted by Chucky due to her family's past with Charles Lee Ray. After the doll murdered her entire family, Nica was accused of the killings and was admitted to Harrogate Psychiatric Hospital, where Chucky tracked her down and placed a piece of his soul into her, possessing her body. After realising that she now loved Nica more than Chucky, Ray's ex-wife, Tiffany Valentine, kidnapped Nica herself and cut off her arms and legs in order to stop Chucky from escaping.

She then kept her hostage in a luxurious mansion in Beverly Hills posing as Hollywood actress Jennifer Tilly. After a year of captivity, Nica teamed up with Chucky and Tiffany's own children, Glen and Glenda, who aided her escape. She then met up with past victims, Andy Barclay and Kyle who helped exorcise Chucky's soul from her body. Following her newfound freedom, a vengeful Nica made it her mission to track down, torture, and eventually murder Tiffany as revenge. After Tiffany was arrested, she confessed to the murders of Nica's family, finally exonerating Nica after ten years.

## Biography

### Early life

Nica Pierce was born on November 25, 1988 to a widowed Sarah Pierce in Chicago, Illinois, some years after her elder sister, Barb Pierce. The girls' father, Daniel Pierce was murdered several months before Nica's birth. Also before she was born, Sarah was kidnapped by infamous serial killer, Charles Lee Ray, who stabbed her pregnant stomach, resulting in Nica being born paraplegic, rendering her unable to walk all of her life. However, this would be kept secret from both Nica and Barb growing up.

At some point, most likely due to trauma, the family would move into a secluded estate in Highgate, Rhode Island. Nica and her mother would then remain in the house whilst Barb would move out and marry a man named Ian, also giving birth to a daughter of her own that she would name Alice. In her late teens and early twenties, Nica would attend city college as a psychology student, focusing her thesis on the concept of completion anxiety. However, she would, ironically, never complete her thesis and continued to live a secluded life with her mother, desperately looking for some independence.

### Encounter with Chucky (2013)

#### Sarah Pierce's Death

One morning, as Nica was secretly browsing potential bookings for trips across Europe, the doorbell of the house rang and Sarah called out for to get it. Irritated, Nica made her way to the front door, finding her mother simply painting along the way, and opened it to find a delivery man looking for a signature. As Nica offered to sign, the two shared flirty banter back and forth and the man noted that he recognised her, having been a classmate of hers during her attendance at city college. He then asked if her mother was home, which she was, and appeared disappointed as the pair bid goodbye. Nica closed the door and asked her mother if she noticed him flirting with her, however, Sarah was quick to dismiss the notion, admitting that never wanted to see Nica be hurt.

## Trivia

* Nica's date of birth is wrongly given as 1987 in the opening credits of *Cult of Chucky*. However, due to Charles Lee Ray's death being known as 1988, this would be impossible as he would stab her while still in the womb the night of his death.
* Nica is the 4th main character to perform a voodoo chant by calling on the powers of Damballa.
* Nica is the only living member of the Pierce Family who is still alive.
* Although Nica has met Chucky in his Good Guy doll form, she has never officially met Tiffany in her Wedding Belle doll form.
* Nica has revealed that she is in contact with the Glen/Glenda doll, G. G., and that she talks to them everyday.
* Nica was finally free of her possession of Chucky in the TV Series episode, Goin to the Chapel, when she and the other heroes performed an exorcism.
* Nica was held hostage by Tiffany Valentine for over 1 year.
* Tiffany Valentine could be considered the arch-enemy of Nica Pierce, due to chopping off her arms and legs, holding her hostage for over a year, sending Chucky to kill her entire family, and for being responsible for Nica's paralysis.
* Nica was finally free of her possession in the Chucky TV Series episode, Goin' to the Chapel, when she and the others performed an exorcism to expel Chucky from her body and into another Good Guy doll.
