Robyn Jade (Robin Jēḍ in Sinhala) is a character in the Venturian Battle franchise in LEGO Dimensions.
Background[]
Robyn Jade had an impoverished and traumatic childhood, facing such tragedies as the death of her pet cat and being trafficked repeatedly by her father for money. Robyn ultimately left her trailer home and stowed away on a plane to the famously wealthy nation of Venturia. Robyn struggled with homelessness there and won the attention of billionaire Roger Jacobson, who invited her to a homeless shelter he funds. Jacobson mentored her at the Venturian Battle Compound and Jade was given a job as a helicopter pilot. While only paid an average salary, Jade was satisfied with her occupation and relationship with Jacobson, who often treated her like a daughter.
