About Kali
When Kali was younger, she was kidnapped and taken to the Hawkins National Laboratory where tests and experiments were run on her. She grew to have a psychic ability to show people hallucinations that weren’t really there. Kali makes others envision anything she wants, and she could do it to more than one person at a time. In the second season of Stranger Things, Kali used this power to escape Hawkins, where they tattooed her and labeled her as number Eight. If she uses too much of her power at one time, her nose will begin to bleed and she will lose control, similar to Eleven.
Kali and Eleven later found each other and bonded over their history at Hawkins. Kali wouldn’t get close to many people, so the fact that she let Eleven into her life was a huge step for her. She had trust issues from being captured by Hawkins and was hurt again when Eleven told her she was returning to Hawkins, Indiana with or without her.
