*Vicky Prentiss was a young British woman who worked as a London bus fare collector during World War I though her aspirations were to become a writer and she penned articles on behalf of the women's suffrage movement. She was the daughter of Sir Peregrine and Lady Prentiss and had at least one sibling.

In May 1916, Vicky and Indiana Jones fell in love with each other during a whirlwind romance as Jones passed through the UK on his way to join the fighting in Europe. Although their feelings were sincere, she ended the relationship before Jones left for the Great War (including correctly anticipating and rejecting his proposal of marriage) in part due to the threat societal expectations on women of that time had to her future career prospects, but also because of how they may have returned to each other as different people by the time the conflict was over.

Decades after they went their separate ways, Vicky and Jones were reunited during a chance encounter at a restaurant in the US and greeted each other with an embrace.*
