Biography
Early life
- Nellie: "Oi, what kind of man gets his jollies hurting a defenseless girl?"
- Abusive Man: "Oh, god, please... let me go... don't tell my wife."
- Nellie: "So now yer sorry, eh? Don't you ever lay a hand on one of us girls again. We know who you are."
- —Nellie and her girls confronting an abusive man about his assault of a prostitute, 1888.[src]
Born between 1863 and 1865, Nellie was one of the many women in London who turned to prostitution to make a living. In March of 1888, she became acquainted with Jacob Frye, who had witnessed her jumping to the defense of a fellow prostitute on Dorset Street. Impressed, he offered to buy the two of them a drink, but Nellie refused, leading Jacob to get them dinner at the Frying Pan instead.
Autumn of Terror
- Nellie: "Katey? Oh, he can't, no, he can't have... And Lizzie? Not both, not in one night..."
- Jacob: "Nellie, remember what I said. Now go."
- —Jacob urging Nellie to flee London following the murder of Eddowes and Stride, 1888.[src]
In 1888, Jack, one of Jacob's initiates, seized control of the Rooks; in response, Jacob ordered several female initiates to go undercover as prostitutes in an attempt to lure him out and assassinate him. One of these women, Mary Ann Nichols, was Nellie's roommate, and the first to die by Jack's hand. In the next months, more fell victim to the serial killer, whose actions spread fear througout London.
On 30 September, news reached Nellie that two more women had been murdered, leading her to seek out Jacob. The two subsequently visited the crime scene of Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddowes, whose deaths left Nellie grief-stricken. Worrying for her safety, Jacob handed Nellie some money and told her to leave Whitechapel. Nellie reluctantly agreed, but was forced to resume her work under Lady O, who supplied Jack the Ripper with information, once the money had run out.
Evie's return
- Nellie: "She knew you'd come, Miss Frye. Lady O is the Ripper's eyes and ears in London..."
- Evie: "Kill her, and Jack will be forced to show himself."
- —Nellie warning Evie about Olwyn Owers, 1888.[src]
Three months after Jacob's appearance, Nellie has been called by Lady Owers. The former has been accompanied with the latter's brutes to prevent any escape. Nellie, knowing Lady O's connection with Jack the Ripper, refuses to come but to no avail as she was being taken away by the Rooks. She was eventually taken to a carriage to be taken directly to Lady Owers at one of her brothels.
There, she was forced to wait with the other prostitutes by the Rooks as Lady Owers gives of a speech to the people on her 'claimed' desire to help the Unfortunates. However, Nellie encounters Evie in the crowd. Evie tries to ask her about her brother and the Ripper, but Nellie warned her that they can't talk now because if Lady O sees the Assassin, she'll have the Ripper kill her. But Olwyn sees Evie. Jack's associate then proceeds to have the Rooks take Nellie. She plans to escape and have the Assassin follow the carriage with Nellie in it, thinking that Misses Ower inside it. Nellie's fate was to be accidentally killed by the Frye during the chase as the latter mistook Nellie as Lady O. Fortunately, Evie hijacked the carriage and discovered the truth before the prostitute was killed. Nellie explained to her the situation that just happened and who Olwyn Owers is. Evie then decides to kill Lady O in order to draw out Jack the Ripper. Evie then promises to look after her before Nellie went to meet up with Lady O in order to prevent suspicions.
Later on, after Evie eliminate Lady Owers, Nellie helped Evie through the prostitutes' assistance while the Assassin helps them by stopping abusive clients & shaming them in front of the citizens, rescuing prostitutes kidnapped by the Rooks, and liberating brothels under attack by the Ripper's underlings.
Trivia
- Nellie shares her face model with Lucy Thorne.
