Trivia

 * She bears resemblance to German singer Nena.
 * Nena has a hit song called "99 Luftbaloons" or 99 Air balloons in English. In The Crown & The Flame Hex uses balloon-like airships (air balloons) to bomb Kenna's forces.
 * Her name "Hex" is synonymous with spell or curse. This is ironic because she is a Technocrat and is a maker of advanced weaponry and prefers to use technology instead. She has no known knowledge of witchcraft so far.
