Sidney Riley was born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 2350 to Lt. Ryan Riley and Raven Lightfoot at the Riley family home. She is the younger of a set of identical twins by ten minutes. Her older sister is named Shannon. Sidney's parents were not married at the time of Sidney's birth, which complicated matters. | |||
Upon the birth of the twins, Benjamin Lightfoot forbade the marriage of Ryan and his daughter, Raven. Benjamin, a Terran affected by the Deltan pheromones of Raven's mother, believed the family to be cursed. He hoped to spare Ryan from the "curse" and years of heartache. He also took the two girls, hoping to spare them from the "Lightfoot Curse," and hid them from their mother. Raven left New Orleans out of despair and was not heard from until four years after the girls' birth. | |||
In the meantime, believing Raven to be dead, Ryan felt his girls needed a mother. He married a distant cousin of Raven's, Cheyenne Lee, when his daughters were two years old. However, the marriage was troubled from the start, and the couple ended up getting divorced when the girls were four years old. Cheyenne ended up moving to Vulcan, and she took Shannon to live with her. Ryan kept Sidney. | |||
Sidney lived with Ryan on starships until she was six years old. When she was six, Ryan took Sidney to visit Cheyenne on Vulcan for the summer. He would have Shannon for the summer. En route to Earth, their shuttle encountered an unexplained anomaly. The shuttle they were in disappeared, and both Ryan and Shannon were declared missing. | |||
With nowhere else for her to go, Riley was taken in by her step-mother and step-father on Vulcan. Her relationship with Cheyenne and Tarvik was not good, however, as she refused to conform to Vulcan practices and beliefs. From the ages of 6 until 15, she had a hard time adjusting to life on Vulcan. During this time she also become an accomplished flautist. | |||
When she was 14, she devised a plan to steal a shuttle to get from Vulcan to Earth. Her plan almost worked, as she was only a few hours from Earth when she was caught by her father's old shipmates, Dr. Michael Mitchell and Captain Jorgenson. They took her into custody, and she was to appear before the council on Vulcan. Cheyenne and Tarvik disowned her, refusing to vouch for her behavior. However, one of her father's best friends, Doctor Michael Mitchell, did attend the hearing and vouched for her. He made Sidney promise not to get into any more trouble until her step parents allowed her to return to Earth. | |||
For the next four months, Sidney was on her best behavior. When she turned fifteen, she went on a hunger strike, refusing to eat or drink anything. It was then that Cheyenne finally relented and sent her back to Earth to live with her grandfather, Ben "Bear" Lightfoot. Sidney completed high school on Earth and decided to go into medicine through the influence of Doctor Mitchell. After completing her degree, she decided to enter the Academy, following her father's footsteps. | |||
