History:
|
Only child, Fry was born in
Caprica City to Charles and Vivienne Riddley but raised
in Picon where her parents worked at the Colonial Fleet
Headquarters. Fry's father was a flight mechanical
instructor while her mother was an aide for a
high-ranking level Fleet Commander.
She grew up surrounded by engines and ships' projects and
it was not really a surprise to her parents when she
decided to enlist in the fleet after high school. Fry's
mother wasn't exactly happy with Fry's choices but she
faked well and gave her only child support all way
through training. Charles, Fry's father, didn't live long
enough to see Fry complete her training though. Charles
was killed during an accident with an experiment engine
for a new Viper.
Fry excelled during training and her first assignment was
aboard the Battlestar Atlantia. Almost two years later,
Fry was transferred to the Galactica and it was like a
dream coming true. She fell in love with the ship and its
staff. Fry was assigned to the Deck Crew Five under
supervision of Chief Tyrol and like all those who worked
with the Chief, she admired him. Time changed things and
her admiration became a crush and then love. Fry never
acted on her feelings. She didn't have the guts to do it.
She dated other guys for a while but her heart always
belonged to Chief Tyrol.
When Fry finally found the Chief was in love and dating
Lt. Sharon Valerii, she realized she was just fooling
herself and she should move on. Easier said then done
though. A young lieutenant JG and Viper pilot started
flirting with Fry but she wasn't interested. The man
didn't take no for an answer and continued to insist
until Fry lost and broke his nose when he made a pass on
her. A following investigation resulted in Fry's
discharge from the fleet. She was known for her
tempestuous personality and hot temper, and the
investigators believed in the lieutenant who stated that
Fry was unstable and had hit him for no reason.
Kicked out of the Galactica, Fry got a job as mechanic in
a Civilian Freighter. She worked there for six months
prior to the first Cylon attacked. The Freighter was away
from the combat zone and ended up joining the ragtag
fleet put together by President Roslin under the
Galactica's protection. She continued to work at the
Freighter until the Galactica lost several crew members
in the first Cylon's attacks and was forced to replace
them by some rookies and other civilians' workers. At
first, Fry didn't want to get back but when Chief Tyrol
personally asked her to, Fry simply couldn't say no.
Psychological Information:
Fry is a very resilient and determined young woman. She
loves her job and doesn't do anything without her full
attention. Explosive, Fry is driven by her emotions more
than by reason. She is usually very kind and friendly but
if someone hurts anyone she cares about, better get out
of her way because she will rage like a river. Fry is
very protective of her friends.
She is mouthy, sarcastic at times and likes to joke
around. Fry enjoys dating and flirting with guys but her
heart belongs to just one man: Chief Tyrol.
