[edit] Lady Penelope's History

Lady Penelope was born on December 24, 2039 and is the daughter of Sir Hugh Creighton-Ward and his wife Amelia. She was educated by her governess, Miss Petherton. Penelope had an eventful childhood, however she was often lonely because her parents lived in India and her father (Sir Hugh) was organising an Indian community. For the last 6 years of her schooling, Lady Penelope was sent to the Rowden boarding school for girls. There she made many friends and was taught to live the social life that her parents expected her to.

After graduating from Rowden, Penelope went to a finishing school in Switzerland. She perfected four languages aside from English: French, German, Italian and Spanish. Lady Penelope completed lots of assignments for various organisations. She then became Commander of the Federal Agents' Bureau. It was at this point that Jeff Tracy approached her with a business offer. She jumped at the chance of working for International Rescue as their London Agent because the job would be more challenging and she would really enjoy it. She now lives in Creighton-Ward Mansion.
