Special Agent Nikki Jardine is an intelligence analyst attached to NCIS. She began working with Leroy Jethro Gibbs's team after Jennifer Shepard to assist him on a case.
Jardine had received a phone call from Navy Lt. Michael Arnett, a Naval intelligence officer, in whose unit there was a suspected mole. Shortly thereafter, Lt. Arnett was shot and killed just as Gibbs had talked him out of committing suicide.
Though she was seen as something of an oddity by the rest of Gibbs's team, she quickly proved to be intelligent, analytical, and able to hold her ground on her opinions. She also volunteered to travel to the "hot zone" in Iraq with Anthony DiNozzo to investigate a murder committed there.
Nikki has at least one brother, Eric, who is a U.S. Marine and to whom she is very close. Eric is currently comatose in a U.S. hospital, after having been shot in Baghdad in 2006.
