Avry was born a second child on the ark to a close friend of the to-be Chancellor's deceased wife. The Nurse who delivered the Chancellor's son had an accidental pregnancy, and decided to confide in Thelonious Jaha upon the birth of her second daughter. Somehow the current Chancellor found out and arrested and floated the entire family. Thelonious, being indebted to the mother took the baby and hid her. She was the same age as Wells and they were raised together under Thelonious' watchful eye. When she hears Wells and her other dear friends are being sent to earth, she gets herself arrested to stay with them. (Eventual MurphyxOC with lots of cuteness and angst leading up to it)
