— Roma to Clarke and Finn when they walk in on her dressing [src] |
Roma Bragg was a recurring character in the first and third seasons. She was portrayed by Celia Reid and debuted in Twilight's Last Gleaming.
She was one of the Delinquents sent to Earth to see if it could support human life. In His Sister's Keeper, Roma was impaled by a Grounder spear, killing her.
Early Life[]
Sometime while living on The Ark, Roma was arrested but because she was under 18, she could not be executed and was sent to prison instead. She was sent down with the rest of the Delinquents to Earth to see if it was sustainable for life.
Throughout the Series[]
In Twilight's Last Gleaming, Roma is seen sleeping with Bellamy and Bree when Raven's pod crashes down to Earth. Later, Clarke and Finn come to Bellamy's tent to question him about the pod but interrupt Roma getting dressed. They ask her where Bellamy is and she tells them that he left. After Bellamy destroys the pod's radio, Roma is one of the delinquents who helps create a makeshift flare to signal the Ark.
In His Sister's Keeper, Roma is recruited by Bellamy to help find his sister, Octavia Blake, who went missing. Finn leads them into unknown territory beyond the Camp, and she notices that John Mbege has disappeared when his body suddenly drops from the trees. They all start running and she calls for Diggs before discovering him killed by a Grounder trap. She continues running even after Bellamy tells them all to stop. She is soon impaled by a spear against a tree while Octavia witnesses the scene after being saved by another Grounder. Bellamy finds Roma's corpse later and shuts her eyes.
In Contents Under Pressure, Bellamy lists her as one of the people killed or wounded by the Grounders.
In Day Trip, Miller mentions to Bellamy that he has not spoken to Roma's parents about her death yet and later leaves his post guarding Lincoln to do so.
In Join or Die Roma is brought in to a room with other delinquents to be taught Earth skills by Charles Pike unknowingly that she was going to be sent to the ground. During the span of two weeks, the delinquents don't retain the information taught by Pike. Roma is later seen being directed into the dropship and is pulled out of line by Bellamy Blake so he can sneak onto the dropship.
In Perverse Instantiation (Part 1) Roma's death is briefly mentioned by Jasper.Personality[]
