Ruby Sunday was a companion of the Fifteenth Doctor.
Abandoned as a baby by her mother, Ruby was soon adopted by Carla and raised alongside other children she fostered, developing a protective personality and changing the lives of Carla and Cherry — her grandmother — for the better. Upon her nineteenth birthday, she and the Doctor defeated the Goblin King and his goblins, preventing them from abducting and eating any more babies. She then joined the Doctor in the TARDIS.
Biography
Early life
Ruby was born at approximately 2PM on 24 December 2004. Within the next few hours, her mother travelled to the church on Ruby Road, abandoning her outside the snowy building.
The Fifteenth Doctor then arrived in his TARDIS, having travelled back from exactly nineteen years in the future to negate a cracked timeline where the Goblins stole Ruby before Carla could find her, and ate her. The Fifteenth Doctor was successful, and left baby Ruby to be found by Carla, restoring the original timeline.
Carla then named baby Ruby after the road the church was located on. (TV: The Church on Ruby Road [+]Loading...["The Church on Ruby Road (TV story)"])
Meeting the Fifteenth Doctor
In 2023, her foster mother got a new foster baby. While her foster mother was out and she was left to look after her, some goblins captured the baby. Ruby climbed out of a window and stands on the roof of her house. She grabbed a ladder floating in midair as it drifted away from the house. The Doctor bounded over rooftops and chatted to her. Then, he leapt and grabbed the ladder, joining her. (TV: The Church on Ruby Road [+]Loading...["The Church on Ruby Road (TV story)"])

Psychological profile
Personality
Ruby was protective of the children Carla fostered, acting as a supportive sibling figure. She instinctually sought to protect Lulubelle after the goblins kidnapped her, even when faced with precarious and life-threatening obstacles.
She was also comfortable with her abandonment, embracing the term "foundling" upon Davina McCall's usage of the term. However, she did seek out her biological mother, if only to understand the truth behind it all. However, when Davina's search for Ruby's family was in vain, Ruby expressed disappointment in having no other relatives.
