Yon-Rogg then briefed Starforce on their mission as they made their way to Torfa, along with [[Ronan the Accuser|Ronan]] and his [[Accusers]], explaining that they should not interfere with the [[Torfans]] so their unwanted precense would not be detected. Yon-Rogg explained that their mission was to rescue [[Soh-Larr]], a [[Kree]] operative who was abducted by the leader of the [[Skrulls]], [[Talos]], having been sent by the [[Supreme Intelligence]] to gather pertaining the Skrull's potential plans and their hiding spots throughout the galaxy so the [[Kree Empire]] could hunt them down.

Yon Rogg noted that rescuing him was their primary objective so that their intelligence would not be compromised and leaked to the Skrulls, warning that if his mind was inhibited, the Skrulls would be able to obtain classified Kree intelligence. While the Accusers bombed several strongholds, Yon-Rogg wished Minn-Erva luck in their mission before the Starforce members recited their pledge to the [[Kree Empire]]. The Starforce arrived on Torfa and swam underwater to reach their destination.
Once on [[Torfa]], Minn-Erva and [[Att-Lass]] took their positions as snipers, preparing to shoot down what seemed to be Skrull soldiers. As [[Yon-Rogg]], [[Vers]], [[Korath the Pursuer]], and [[Bron-Char]] attempted to attack the Skrull village, Minn-Erva's contact with Yon-Rogg slowly waned. As the four [[Starforce]] operatives encountered the armed Skrulls, Minn-Erva shot the attacking Skrulls from the cliff.

As one of the Torfan citizens charged at the Starforce, Minn-Erva shot the civilian. Suddenly, the Skrulls morphed into their original forms and fought the Starforce, prompting Minn-Erva to shoot the attacking Skrulls from the cliff.
[[Att-Lass]] asked her not to attack them, as they were just natives. However, Minn-Erva came to the conclusion that he wasn't Att-Lass, but was actually a Skrull imposter as well as the natives.

"You knew all along. Is that why we never hung out?"
"No, I just never liked you."
Captain Marvel and Minn-Erva[src]

Minn-Erva was a Kree tactical sniper and a member of Starforce. Under the orders of the Supreme Intelligence and Ronan the Accuser, Minn-Erva and other members of the Starforce were sent on a mission to rescue the Kree Soh-Larr from Skrull captivity. However, the mission was sabotaged by the Skrulls. Minn-Erva and the Starforce eventually located and captured the defected Kree warrior Captain Marvel. As Minn-Erva and the Kree prepared to kill the remaining Skrull refugees, Captain Marvel freed herself from the Supreme Intelligence, defeating Minn-Erva and the Starforce in combat. Minn-Erva attempted to personally eliminate Captain Marvel's new allies, only to be killed after Maria Rambeau shot down her ship.

While Danvers and her allies were exploring the ship, the Starforce arrived and captured all of them. As Nick Fury and Maria Rambeau attempted to draw their weapons at Yon-Rogg, Minn-Erva subdued them at gunpoint as Danvers had a conversation with Yon-Rogg in which he explained that the Kree weaponized her and made her into the warrior she was now. While Danvers was restrained by Yon-Rogg and was confronted by the Supreme Intelligence, Minn-Erva ordered Att-Lass to inject the Skrulls, Nick Fury, Maria Rambeau, and Goose into space.

However, Danvers was finally able to overpower the Supreme Intelligence and remove her photon inhibitor, unlocking her true powers. As Fury and Rambeau evacuated the remaining Skrull refugees off the ship, the Starforce decided to confront Danvers and end the threat. Despite having been cornered at almost every angle, Danvers proceeded to fight them, effortlessly defeating Korath, Bron-Char, and Att-Lass in the process.

With those three defeated, Minn-Erva ordered her soldiers to attack Danvers. As Danvers incapacitated the henchmen, Minn-Erva took aim at Danvers and attempted to shoot at her. However, Danvers managed to escape momentarily from her. After Bron-Char and Korath charged at Danvers and were both subdued a second time, Minn-Erva approached the ground floor to personally engage her former associate.

Minn-Erva tells Captain Marvel that she never liked her

As Minn-Erva attempted to draw her Kree Sniper Rifle at Danvers, but was quickly disarmed, Minn-Erv quickly seized the nearest pistol, aiming at her. Danvers surmised that she knew her secret all along, and inquired as to if that was the reason why they never bonded, only for Minn-Erva to tell Danvers that they never hung out as she never liked her. Minn-Erva then shot Danvers in the head with the weapon, only to discover that her weapon was a harmless NERF gun, allowing Danvers to blast her.[1]

With her remaining teammates either injured or unconscious, Minn-Erva was ordered by Yon-Rogg to shoot down the Quadjet bringing the Skrulls away along with Carol Danvers' friends. Taking a Kree space pod, Minn-Erva descended to the Mojave Desert and tried to shoot down the Quadjet, lightly damaging it.

Minn-Erva's death

However, Maria Rambeau outsmarted and outmaneuvered Minn-Erva, causing her to lose sight of them. The Quadjet emerged, and she witnessed Maria's ship right in front of her's. Minn-Erva watched in horror as Maria shot her spacecraft down with the Quadjet's dual miniguns, killing Minn-Erva in the process as her spacecraft's remains plummeted to the desert below.[1]

Personality

"Commander, she's still moving. Permission to fire?"
―Minn-Erva to Yon-Rogg[src]

Minn-Erva was a Kree sniper, willing to take down anyone who opposed them, and showing a liking for killing when she asked his superior Yon-Rogg if he could let her shoot an unconscious Carol Danvers. For instance, Minn-Erva mercilessly eliminated Att-Lass's Skrull imposter, who was unarmed, without any hesitation. Having been the "star soldier" of Starforce before Danvers became part of the team, she felt slightly threatened as the newcomer was very talented, perhaps even more than her. As such, Minn-Erva held a strong animosity towards Danvers, the reason for which they never hung out together.

The uniform has a built in the universal translator that allows its wearer to understand the language of anyone they interact with and be able to speak their language back to them. The uniform also contains a device capable of analyzing and identifying any object placed within it on the uniform's sleeve. The uniform's color scheme can also be customized to suit the user's preferences via a device located on the uniform's sleeve, though Minn-Erva herself never had any reason to do this. The Starforce Uniform also includes a collapsible helmet that can fit around the wearer's head. The helmet can generate its own atmosphere and allows the wearer to breathe in the vacuum of space, as well as underwater, where it will give off a blue glow to provide light.
