Ridge was an Orbital Drop Shock Trooper who served during the Insurrection circa between 2525 and early 2526.[1]
Biography
Ridge spent his childhood on New Harmony,[note 1] and was friends with 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".[2]
Ridge was later killed in action by an Insurrectionist grenade on Andesia, traumatizing Cadmon. In remembrance, Cadmon shaved his head, an act Ridge had suggested would make Cadmon tougher.[3]

Notes
- ^ Cadmon notes that Thomas would remember Ridge from "back home". Thomas and Cadmon Lasky were born on Mars, but in Halo 4, Thomas states that he "grew up on New Harmony". Thus, in order for Thomas to remember Ridge, he would most likely have lived on New Harmony.
