Biography
Early life
Fiona Chris Fitzgerald was born on January 26, 2016. Her parents are wealthy members in the upper hierarchy of General Resource Limited.[2] She received special pilot training since she was 3 years old. At the age of 22, she completed her postgraduate education in aeronautical engineering from Edwards University.[5] In opposition to her sister Cynthia, who joined Neucom, and out of a sense of justice,[2] Fiona joined UPEO in 2039 and became a pilot in SARF in 2040.[5]
Simulation
Her first mission in the corporate war was to stop Neucom transports over Expo City along with other SARF members. From then on, she flew on various missions for SARF, until the mission over Mount Lambert where she was flying an R-505U carrying UPEO's top delegate Gabriel W. Clarkson to a diplomatic mission to Neucom, with both of them intending to defect to Neucom.
There are four possible fates for Fiona after this point. Three paths lead to her death, and one leaves her alive.
UPEO
Either Nemo or Rena shoot down the R-505U, killing everyone on board it, including Fiona. Rena will kill Fiona only if Nemo does not kill either her or the R-101U at the decision point.[6]
General Resource
After defecting to General Resource, Nemo will appear at Lambert as part of the General inteception group alongside Keith and Dision. It shoots down the R-505U, killing Fiona and preventing her defection to Neucom.[7]
Neucom
Nemo shoots down the R-101U and accompanies Fiona to Dennis Airport to join her in defecting to Neucom. From here, Fiona and Cynthia accompany it in Neucom's open war against General.[8]
At Neucom, Fiona reunites with Cynthia. Their first mission is to destroy General Resource's base in White Valley. After the destruction of the General base, they are assigned to either protect an R-808 as it returns to Earth, or remain on standby as Nemo pilots an R-352 to destroy General laser satellites in outer space. If Nemo chooses to protect the R-808, it, Fiona and Cynthia must later recover a Neucom reconnaissance satellite fallen into the sea before General can do so. Before and after the satellite recovery mission, Fiona expresses to Nemo her eroding faith in both Neucom and Cynthia, disappointed that flying with Nemo is the only reason she continues to work for Neucom. [9]
Prior to a mission in White Valley, Fiona barges in on Cynthia in their room, angrily asking why Cynthia submitted herself as one of Neucom's sublimation subjects. Cynthia responds equally angrily, defending her decision and walking out without caring to listen to Fiona, who silently has an epiphany that "humanity can never become God". This conflict reaches its peak in White Valley, where Cynthia attempts to defect to Ouroboros and Fiona is helpless to stop her, leaving Nemo to choose between joining Cynthia or keeping Fiona company. [10]
If Nemo stays in Neucom, Fiona, dejected with her sister for going to the 'dark side', continues her missions. She beings fighting Ouroboros and after the final battle against Rena and Dision inside Geofront, she resigns from the NEU, depressed due to Cynthia's death and disillusioned with Neucom's inhuman policies.
In the Neucom ending, after having left the organization, Fiona sits dejected in her apartment, staring at a holographic picture of herself and Cynthia, when the sublimated Cynthia suddenly messages her over the Electrosphere, repulsing Fiona with her speech of her acceptance of the digital realm. Agonized over the fact her sister was willing to destroy her body for the sake of the Electrosphere, Fiona loses her mind and breaks down.[11]
Ouroboros II
If Nemo chooses to defect to Ouroboros with Cynthia, Fiona is killed alongside numerous other Neucom personnel in a Ouroboros raid on a Neucom base in the Waiapolo Mountains.[12]
Trivia
- Fiona, like her sister, has the same last name as Bobby Fitzgerald, the leader of the Republic of Emmeria Army's Steel Gunners Battalion. It is unknown if they are in anyway related.
