Rachel Ellenstein
Born in 1936 in Amsterdam, Holland to Jewish parents, she was rescued from the Nazis by Connor MacLeod in 1943. Connor adopted her and raised her as his own daughter. Later in life she became his friend, confidante and business partner in Connor's antiques store in New York. In the Garry Kilworth novelisation of the film, Connor explains to Brenda that he himself is Rachel's adopted son. Before the final battle of the Gathering in 1985, Rachel realized that if even Connor could defeat The Kurgan, he would still not return. Connor granted her power of attorney over his estate and left her in charge of Nash Antiques.
