Vicky Prentiss was a love interest of Indiana Jones in 1916. When he first met her in London, though, he did not pay special attention to her because she was a ticket collector in the bus where Jones was already trying to seduce another girl. After being rejected by the first girl, Jones continued the travel along till the bus stopped due to the upcoming attack of a German zeppelin - something Jones had not seen till then and did not fear at the start as a result. Vicky saved his life taking him to a safe place then, and he became interested in her. However, she refused to meet him again.
Later the two met each other again at a suffragee convention, whose ideals where supported by Vicky. Only then did Jones awake the girl's interest, after having told a male boycotter at the convention to shut up. Vicky and Indiana then travelled to Oxford, where Vicky met Miss Seymour and Indy Vicky's parents. Because of her strong pro-suffrage views Vicky came soon into conflict with both Seymour and one of her guesses - Winston Churchill. Vicky recognized later to be ashamed of this incident.
Back in London, Indiana proposed marriage to Vicky but she declined arguing that she wasn't ready yet. Jones departed then to fight in World War I and lost any contact with Prentiss till 1992, when the aged couple was reunited again in a restaurant of New York City by pure coincidence.
[edit] Habilities
