Sheryl Nome
The cool beauty who has been dubbed "The Galactic Fairy!"

Personal Data - Civilian:
Attached to: Civilian
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Galaxy Fleet

A 17-year-old girl from the Galaxy Fleet, Sheryl is the incredibly popular recording artist* known as the "Galactic Fairy." She has never received the technology known as "Implants" (which are widespread on Galaxy), making her something of a rarity. She is the current top idol, having spent a record-breaking 17 weeks at the #1 spot on the Galactic Chart. She was struck with misfortune, though, when the Vajra attacked the Frontier Fleet during the final show of her galactic tour there. Soon after, all communications with the Galaxy Fleet abruptly ceased, and Sheryl was forced to stay with Frontier Fleet after the end of her tour.
It is said that after this, she got wrapped up in a love triangle with the "Super Dimension Cinderella," Ranka Lee (who Sheryl had become acquainted with both in public and private) and S.M.S. pilot Alto Saotome. Always overflowing with confidence and arrogant in her words and actions (even in private), it is still rumoured that before her debut, she lived a life of dire poverty. Perhaps because of this, singing with the mind of a pro and an upfront sense of pride, her attitude and beauty, both physical and vocal, continue to entrance countless people throughout the galaxy.

* Editor's note: "recording artist" changed to "singer" in the Revised Ed..

Caption: Striving for the top in all things has led to Sheryl perhaps having a little too much self-confidence. Her haughty manner can make her seem something of a little demon.

Caption: Despite her elegant appearance, Sheryl is determined in her thinking. She will work to turn a loss into a win no matter how many times she has to try.

Character Episode 01: The Frontier Concert
Due to the grandstanding of Alto, a member of the flight team, an accident happened to Sheryl on stage. Although she was angry, she used her quick wit to reverse the situation and entrance the audience with her courage. Later, the same concert was cancelled during the performance because of a Vajra attack.

Caption: In spite of the accident, Sheryl still brought the performance to a grand climax. This was Sheryl and Alto's first meeting.

Character Episode 02: Meeting Ranka
The day after the Vajra attack, Sheryl realized that she had lost one of her earrings. The concert video gave her a clue as to their whereabouts, and she placed a request to the military to meet with Alto at his residence. However, realizing that the request would go nowhere, she struck out into the city on her own (after leaving a message for her manager, Grace), where she met Ranka, who was singing one of Sheryl's own songs. Ranka, who was a big Sheryl fan and wanted to be a singer, made a good impression on Sheryl, and Sheryl revealed her own identity by singing.

Caption: After getting lost, Sheryl heard a singing girl pass by. This girl was Ranka, before her debut.

Caption: Sheryl looking at Ranka with kindness in her eyes. At that time, she never dreamt that Ranka would one day become her main rival.

Character Episode 03: The Shelter Incident
While Sheryl was chatting with Ranka, the man she had been looking for, Alto, coincidentally arrived. However, at that time, the Vajra attacked the Frontier Fleet again, and the trio quickly escaped to a shelter. Finally, they were saved due to Grace's quick thinking, but Sheryl showed her determination of spirit in an escape attempt.

Caption: In the shelter, Alto quite accidentally saw Sheryl naked, which enraged her. The two ended up having their first violent argument.

Up: Sheryl's slender, regular features are suited well to the words "beautiful woman." On the one hand, her appearance looks likes innocence in full bloom, but on the other her words and actions can be alarmingly blunt. Perhaps the gap between them is one part of her charm.

Up: The outfit Sheryl wore when entering her dressing room before the Frontier Tenkuumon Hall concert. The beret, the one-piece that gives an impression of being a long dress, and the boots together have an atmosphere of being neat and smart, but also active.

Sheryl's Earrings
The teardrop-style earrings that Sheryl wears. The violet jewel is an unknown crystal called "Fold Quartz." While it is said that Fold Quartz makes possible a leap forward in Fold Navigations and Communications, its connection to the Vajra must also be pointed out. The ones Sheryl has are extremely important to her, and when she lost one of them, she hurriedly checked the concert video to confirm that it had ended up in Alto's hands. Moreover, she went searching around the city for him in spite of her tight schedule. Later, when at the end of Sheryl's next encounter with Alto, she absentmindedly forgot to mention the earring, but Alto (who was interested in Sheryl) used it as an excuse for going to see her again.

Caption: Sheryl has long hair, but to show off her earrings, she often styles her hair so that her right ear is visible.
