Biography[]
After the death of her parents at the hands of the American Air Force in Iraq, Abigail joined an extremist organization dedicated to fighting the U.S. Army. During an attack at an enemy outpost, Abigail and her comrades were massacred. In the aftermath, Aby abandoned the cause and joined the French conman Laurent Thierry as his partner-in-crime. During a job in Los Angeles, Jones met the amateur Japanese conman Makoto Edamura who joined their crew.
Due to her traumatic past, Abigail was emotionally closed off from everybody, rarely sharing her feelings or details of her past with others. Jones would often put herself into dangerous situations in the hopes that she would eventually die, making her suicidal.
