Background

  • An Outborn who arrived in Westport from Salt Lake City, Utah in 2023, carrying the instincts of a commoner rather than a soldier. Though she later became a Guardian, she was never truly meant for war.
  • Nicholas Tink's girlfriend and first true love -- their relationship built on youth, hope, and emotional dependence rather than survival instinct.

Personality

  • A lover, not a fighter -- eager to belong, eager to help, and eager to prove herself, even when she lacks the experience to understand the cost. Innocent and inexperienced, easily influenced by stronger personalities and harsher realities; she wants to be brave, but bravery for her often looks like following rather than leading.
  • Can be spoiled and blunt, sometimes slightly mean without realizing it, a product of having been protected rather than hardened -- a civilian entitlement to her expectations of safety and fairness clashes violently with the world she now lives in. Yet beneath that is genuine loyalty, deep affection, and an earnest desire to be seen as more than fragile.

Notable In The Series

  • Captured and forced into the Heartland arena in The Boar's Primm; sacrifices herself to ensure Vera's escape, dying under Buffalo Bill's attack on May 18, 2027.
  • Her death becomes a defining trauma in Nicholas's life -- not heroic in the traditional sense, but tragic precisely because she was never meant to be there at all, representing everything he loses when innocence dies.
