Biography

Remapping

Info from The Curse of Fenman needs to be added

Ruth, as she would later become known, travelled to Zordin and briefly met Bernice Summerfield and Jack, asking them to strap in as they reached the spaceport and expressing her surprise when it suddenly disappeared. (AUDIO: The Kraken's Lament)

On Atlantis, she became Ruth, a priestess of Poseidon who remembered living there all her life. She had little memory of her parents, but remembered having a close relationship with Leonidas and Charis. When she greeted Leo and found that he did not know her, she joined him as a Historian. She heard Pallis's broadcast. (AUDIO: The Temple of Questions)

Defying the Epoch

After Ruth and Leo met Benny and they decided to go to the Great Leader's underwater base, Ruth was remapped to become the sole priestess of Poseidon so that she would be able to summon the Chariot of Poseidon to get there. The Great Leader forced them to take part in a game during which she worried that she might have unknowingly been a traitor to Benny, but, following the Great Leader's destruction, Benny assured her that that was not the case. (AUDIO: The Temple of Questions)

Ruth kept Benny at a safe house on Leo's orders to keep her safe and helped her in a failed attempt to escape when the Hierophants came for her. They examined the changes to Atlantis and joined the Historians at the Senate, finding that Leo had been remapped to become a Hierophant called Traulus. Ruth and Benny then went to reboot the Great Leader due to the stability that he provided, but the Transuniversal Export building had transformed into a spire and they waited at the top of it as nothing destroyed the city. (AUDIO: Private Enemy No. 1)

The Epoch took Ruth and Benny and made them watch two other versions of themselves in different realities to work out which version of them was the real one. She began to remember moments from her life before Atlantis and was joined by the version of her from the Victorian London reality, who shut down the field around the solar system so that she, Jack and her version of Benny could escape. One Ruth was teleported to the London reality, but the other remained behind due to the device running out of battery and trapped Benny in a stasis chamber to survive the destruction of the reality they were in. (AUDIO: Judgement Day)

Ruth found herself on another planet circa 2615 and worked as a lookout for a con artist, who later gave her an identity card. She searched for Benny without success until she overheard a discussion about the worship of the Beneficiary on Lyndyaz and travelled there to study archaeology at University One, becoming Harry Burtenshaw's assistant and waiting for Benny to show up. In 2616, Benny showed up and, after she and Burtenshaw defeated Gabriella and Federico Dominicci, Ruth left with her to find Peter on Legion. (AUDIO: Brand Management)

Having rented a faulty spaceship Benny and Ruth crashed on Drahva looking for a previous ship that was there. After being captured by Zabel, Shekkina thought that Ruth was their ancient Empress. She wasn't happy when Shekkina said she needed a consort. She was the made to preside over the court and annulled marriages. She chose Gorath to be her consort. On her night before the wedding she was taken to cells. She discovered that she was to be buried in cement. (AUDIO: Empress of the Drahvins)

Learning of the Sphere of the Serenity which could lead them to Legion, Ruth and Benny disguised themselves as nuns and joined the Sisters of Celestion in order to gain access to the Talishante Monastery. Ruth suspected Mother Aurelia after Sister Caitlin and Dr Gaiter were murdered and worked with Sister Marianne to investigate, unaware that she was the real murderer. Sister Marianne attacked her and she went to Benny's aid with Bishop Synesius, after which she and Benny left with the Sphere on a medical ship. (AUDIO: Bad Habits)

Ruth and Benny were kicked off of the medical ship because of Benny's drunken antics and they continued their journey with Ray in his taxi until it was pulled down to Kaff Zarnak by Carol Bauer and Yukon 9's tractor beam. They joined Dr Bauer and Yukon, whose interspecies relationship took Ruth aback, in evading the sand roaches and making their way to Jared Jones at the top of Xanadu Tower to escape. Dr Bauer, Dr Jones and Ray were killed and Ruth and Benny left the planet with Yukon in a shuttle, dropping Yukon off before continuing towards Legion. (AUDIO: Paradise Frost)

Life on Legion

Info from The Slender-Fingered Cats of Bubastis, Filthy Lucre, Wurm Noir and White Christmas needs to be added

Ruth and Benny arrived at Legion City and found Peter Summerfield, Irving Braxiatel and Jack in the White Rabbit. (AUDIO: Paradise Frost) They went with Peter to decide what to do about the Vesuvius and investigated Sheira Rynn's apparent murder, in the course of which Ruth discovered that one of the cryo-pods had recently been active, helping them realise that Sheira had disguised herself as Rickard Karne. She learnt of Peter's boyfriend, Antonio Tulloch, and mentioned him to Benny. (AUDIO: Vesuvius Falling)

She found Dorian Gray's portrait in Triptic House, and thought that the painting was looking at them. She was also the first to experience visions when Jack made them participate in a seance around Dorian Gray's portrait. (AUDIO: Shades of Gray)

She later wanted to know of Peter's boyfriend Antonio Tulloch. She wanted to be friends with him, and knew about the Deindum War. She found out that Antonio wasn't what he seemed. (AUDIO: Everybody Loves Irving)

In a simulation from Benny's mind, when she was in Atlantis she was worried about not fitting in. This simulation then later helped Benny defeat simulations of her enemies from her memory. (AUDIO: Many Happy Returns)

She joined Benny and Jack on the Irverfield on a post run. When they landed on Nemeqit they thought it was just a dead planet. She helped Benny discover the truth behind the missing people. She later swallowed a lot of dust. She realised that if there was an apocalypse people would remember the essential basics, but they wouldn't remember the rituals and the religions. (AUDIO: A Handful of Dust)

She confronted Peter about the fact that Antonio wasn't real, which Peter thought was ridiculous. Avril Fenman later reminded her about her past life, before the Epoch's rewriting of time and memory. Ruth was part of a high class family who looked down upon the common people. During an uprising, Ruth killed her father and then asked her loyal servant to take credit, making her servant into a hero. She then asked that her servant kill Ruth's childhood friend in order to fake her death as Ruth made her escape from the planet. Learning this about her past made Ruth uncomfortable, but she eventually came to terms with it, realising that her present self was her new identity. (AUDIO: The Curse of Fenman)

Return of the Epoch

She accompanied Benny to Saravas as part of her entourage. She ended up doing the tea run by accident for Shepton Rothwell, which she despised. She was persuaded by a possessed Shepton that Jack and Benny were in a relationship. She became paranoid and thought that Benny wanted to kill her. She left Benny when the Epoch arrived. Benny forgot her. (AUDIO: Big Dig)

She was taken by the Epoch as they thought she was what was causing the temporal instabilities around Benny and took her to their domain. She was then brainwashed into thinking she was an actor, called Ayesha Antoine, playing herself and a character called Brook. Benny managed to undo the brainwashing and defeated them. She then used the Epoch technology to find Leonidas. (AUDIO: In Living Memory)
