| ==Biography== | | ==Biography== |
| Ridge spent his childhood on [[Mars]],{{Ref/Note|Cadmon notes that Thomas would remember Ridge from "back home". In ''Halo 4'', Thomas states that he "grew up on New Harmony" suggesting he is referring to the planet [[New Harmony]]. However, Mars is established as his and Cadmon's homeworld in ''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn'' and it is mentioned in the fourth issue of ''Halo: Escalation'' that he grew up with [[Petra Janecek]] on Mars. Therefore, it is most likely that the reference to the planet in Halo 4 is a production error and Lasky is meant to refer to the Martian city of the same name. Thus, in order for Thomas to remember Ridge, he would most likely have lived on Mars.}} and was friends with [[Cadmon Lasky|Cadmon]] and [[Thomas Lasky]]. Sometime around 2525-2526, he served with Cadmon on [[Arcadia]]. When his unit came upon a jungle river, Ridge warned the others not to drink the water because it was polluted; Cadmon ignored his friend's advice and contracted diarrhea, earning him the nickname "Volcano".<ref>'''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn''', ''Part 2''</ref>

In remembrance, Cadmon shaved his head, an act Ridge had suggested would make Cadmon tougher.<ref>'''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn''', ''Part 3''</ref> | | Ridge was later killed in action, traumatizing Lasky.<ref>'''Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn''', ''Part 3''</ref> |
