When Lania was 9-years-old she was kidnapped by Agent Fires while her dad, Slade Wilson, was away on a mission. Fires killed her mother right in front of her when the woman tried to protect her daughter.

Fires delivered Lania to the League of Assassins. She was trained into a living weapon and sent after targets. She takes the name Dāopiàn - Blade, and wears a mask over her mouth and nose so no one can recognize her without it.

After 8 year, Fires calls in a favor from the League and hires Lania to be the "muscle" for his mission on Lian Yu. She helps him hunt down Yao Fei, and faces off against her father, who then realizes who she is when he sees her fighting style. She uses moves that he had taught her.

Oliver blows up Fires base and they believe that Lania is dead, but she survives the blast and spies on them for about a year.

She finds a way off the island shortly after her father is injected with the Mirakuru. She travels to Europe where she meets Jacob Mehrens - a young billionaire traveling with his father to check up on the affairs of their global company.

Enthralled by her, Jacob extends his stay in Europe and asks her on a date. They go out for about a year before Jacob asks her to marry him.

On their wedding night, Lania receives orders from the League of Assassins, but she ignores them, not wanting to return to that life. Lania takes on the name Emily Mehrens to hide her true identity and wears a blonde wig to shroud her black hair.

Meanwhile, the League has her father-in-law killed so that Jacob can take over the company, putting him, and Lania, in a position of power.

Upon Oliver's return, she gets close to him. Jacob was a childhood friend of Tommy and Oliver. Emily runs into Oliver at Queen Consolidated, discussing a merger project with Walter.

When Malcolm Merlyn starts killing compromised people on the list, he receives a message from the League, ordering him to kill Jacob on threat of his son's life.

Emily wakes up to find that Jacob never came home. She goes to the office, thinking he just worked late, and finds him dead on his office floor with three arrows in his chest.

Oliver offers to let her stay with them instead of going back to her empty mansion. In no state to argue, she lets Oliver take her home.

When, she's had some time to recover, she throws herself back into the League's work, secretly taking out her targets, but, outwardly, acting to help Starling city thrive.

Oliver starts tracking her after picking up on her trail of bodies. He recognizes her, but she manages to evade him. He never fully drops the search though until The Undertaking takes priority.

When Sarah shows up with a band of Assassins on her tail, Lania gets word to bring her in. She attacks, but Oliver intervenes. He asks Sarah what she knows about her. Sarah doesn't know much as their paths never crossed, but she's heard stories of Dāopiàn... and her kill count.

Slade returns and the two enemies are forced to work together to stop him. Slade tries to recruit his daughter, but Lania refuses, later telling Oliver - "Slade Wilson was my father, that man out there - Deathstroke - is not."

With Deathstroke imprisoned, Lania goes after the League to get revenge for taking her away from her family.

Oliver offers her a place back on the team when she returns. When she asks why, he tells her it's because he's seen her potential for good.

She fights her way to Ra's Al Ghul, but isn't strong enough to defeat him. She almost dies, but manages to return to Starling City and get help from Oliver.
