Chameleon is a G.I. Joe-aligned human from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
Boy, that sure sounds exciting, kids! You should really pick up a copy of the Cobra collections out from IDW Publishing in all good comic stores and digital marketplaces!

Chameleon, real name Erika Le Tene or Eléa Cisarovna, had her life turned upside down when she discovered she was the half-sister of the Baroness, a member of Cobra High Command. Recruited to join the nefarious organization, she was eventually given a new start when she was recruited by G.I. Joe as an intelligence agent. Don't ask her about men with ugly shirts.

Erika never knew her father and her mother only kept her around out of spite. Dance Among the Shadows

She had a dark and troubled past before she was offered a second chance by Flint some years prior to 2017. Their relationship eventually had them engaging in some, ahem, not-quite-professional relations. At some point afterwards, Flint gave her a third chance, yet she still faced distrust from others. Behind My Bleeding Back At one point, she and Flint worked with Tomax Paoli (it went badly!). Strange Visitors

Chameleon was part of Talon's team, sent to the Matterhorn to secure and study the Junkion ship. A Lonely Pillar on the Plain When the Joes agreed to get Thundercracker as a consultant, Chameleon and Flint were sent to meet him in Cairo. While the latter spoke to Marissa Faireborn, Chameleon spoke to the Seeker about literary tropes, her life story piquing his interest when she mentioned Chuckles, leading him to brainstorm a new screenplay based on Chameleon's life. Behind My Bleeding Back On the flight back to Switzerland, Chameleon quizzed Flint about Marissa being his daughter before Thundercracker and Marissa caught up to the two and requested they land. Chameleon caught up with Thundercracker and played with Buster. Dance Among the Shadows

Then Sharkticons began invading before they up and left. Chameleon and Flint were quick to resume their flight back to Switzerland and followed the invaders. Feel Safe Without Regrets

During an interrogation, Tomax sarcastically queried as to Chameleon's well being. Strange Visitors When the President of the United States paid a visit to Autobot City, Chameleon stood guard by her helicopter. What It's Really Like Following Jazz's disastrous television interview, Chameleon remained as the President's security. The Life of Sideswipe

After Marissa Faireborn had been chosen to represent the Cybertronian Council of Worlds, the Spacebridge network went offline in response to the Iron Ring's attack on Cybertron. The Devisen Slide blamed G.I. Joe for the event, prompting Chameleon to whip out her pistol and point out that G.I. Joe had just lost 143 members of its staff before commenting that her weapon was useless against a Transformer. Soundwave agreed with her, both that G.I. Joe was innocent of blame and that her weapon would be ineffective. Primeless, Part 1

After the Iron Ring's invasion, she and Flint were present at the opening of an Ore-13 mine in Kentucky where Flint grumbled about the alien presence on Earth. Surfeit of Primes

The adopted daughter of French revolutionaries, the girl who would become Chameleon discovered at a young age that she was actually Eléa Cisarovna, the daughter of a wealthy family. She reached out to her half-sister, the Baroness, in an attempt to claim her birthright; however, Cobra intercepted her message and brought her into the fold, where she learned to mimic the Baroness's mannerisms and serve as a decoy.

Chameleon was acting as the Baroness's body double during a meeting with the Combaticons. When the Autobots attacked, Swindle took off with Chameleon in tow, and retreated to the nearby village of Saint-Bertrand-de-Comminges, where they lay low until a joint G.I. Joe/Autobot team—Doc, Mainframe, Cover Girl, Bulkhead, Minerva, and Bumblebee—arrived to take them in, in the mistaken belief that Chameleon was actually the real Baroness. After a brief chase through the streets, the heroes eventually captured the duo; after a brief interrogation, Chameleon spilled information on a classified cybernetics facility located in the Pyrenees, where Cobra had authorized the construction of an experimental robotic tank drone.
