**Ruby-Jane "RJ" Suri** **Choi** is a Cambion (half demon-half human hybrid) and Psychic hybrid who made her debut on the second episode of season two in *Legacies*.

## Early History

Ruby-Jane has mentioned that she, her brother and her step-father all live in a small house in the woods near Mystic Falls. Apparently, she has lived there since she was five. She has also indicated that she has possibly been home schooled before her and her brother were sent to go to high school.

She said in *This Year Will Be Different*that she knew about her abilities and what she was since she was a child. She also mentioned that she didn't attend school until a year ago.

Through a flashback in *You Remind Me of Someone I Used to Know*, it was shown that her brother was almost killed when he slipped off a cliff. RJ managed to catch his arm and pull him up.

Her and Jack also are shown that they have always taken the bus to school.

## Throughout Legacies Series

In *This Year Will Be Different*, RJ and Jack were sitting on the bus bench waiting for their bus as they talked about homework and teachers. Jack tells RJ that he will be doing tutoring for his Maths subject and asked if that was alright. RJ said that it was perfectly fine and explains that she would just wander around the school.

RJ then arrives at school and goes to her locker where she is met by Natasha Wilson. They talk about the game between the schools that is happening the next day, RJ then brings up that she can't attend at the Grill because of her brother. They part ways before Ethan shows up at her locker and tries to flirt with her but she rejects him before she walks to class.

RJ walks out class later on and sees that Hope looks like she is going to cry. RJ takes Hope to the bathroom. Hope  apologises but RJ ignores her and hugs Hope. Hope calms down before she tells RJ that she's sorry. RJ says it's alright before Maya comes in asks if it's boy trouble. Hope says it is and Maya suggests a makeover and RJ offers her silver necklace.

Later, Maya and RJ stumble across Hope and Alaric and the non-human creature. RJ and Maya questions what happen To keep the supernatural world hidden, Alaric gets MG to compel Maya to forget, but when he tries to compel RJ to forget, it does not work. Eventually, she tells Alaric and Hope she is a Cambion and Psychic hybrid and that her brother is a psychic as well. She tells that she has always known since she was a child and her abilities were the reason why she never attended school at all until a year ago. She then leaves as Hope and Alaric talk.

While she is at home and studying, she has a vision of a boy almost getting attacked by the monster she saw before she saw Hope saving him. RJ wakes up Jack and they leave to go help Hope. When they arrive they see Hope being held up by her throat. RJ manipulates his body temperature by making it rise before Hope falls and Alaric shoots the monster with an arrow. RJ helps them kill the creature (that turned out to be a cyclops) by using her telekinesis to rip out the cyclops' eye.

RJ and Jack return home without waking their step-father before they discussed that they shouldn't tell hime because he might never let them outside again. They both agree before they return to bed.

In a flashback, RJ is seen as a younger girl (maybe 9 or 10) with a woman who is presumed to be her mother, practising RJ's telekinesis at a lake near their home. RJ is struggling before the woman says she believes in her. RJ then manages to lift the rock and fly it with ease.
