[edit] Brief character history
Colby was born in 1999 to Liza Colby, who had decided to have a child via artificial insemination. Liza chose Dr. Jake Martin to be the sperm donor/father of her child; however, Liza's ex-husband, Adam Chandler, was jealous of this arrangement and secretly purchased the sperm bank and substituted his own sperm donation for Jake's, thus making him Colby's biological father. At the time of Colby's birth, both Liza and Jake believed that Jake was her father and, thus, the child was originally named "Colby Marian Martin." In 2000, it was revealed that Adam was actually Colby's biological father when Jake sued for custody of the child.
[edit] Teen Years
In 2006 a rebellious Colby Chandler, then incognito, shows up in Pine Valley. She steals a car and gets arrested, refusing to give the authorities her name. She makes a phone call and is revealed to be Adam Chandler's long lost daughter (aged by several years). She ran away from her mother, Liza Colby after years in hiding.
Several years before, Liza had divorced Adam. Determined to save her daughter from Adam's nefarious ways that have "poisoned" the lives of his other children, she took Colby and went on the run. Colby has missed her father terribly and is now angry at Liza for banishing him from her life. Colby is now a spoiled brat who plays on her father's guilt by demanding extravagant luxuries, such as a lavish Sweet Sixteen party, putting her at odds with Adam's then wife Krystal Carey.
On April 11, 2007, Colby helped deliver Krystal Carey's baby girl at the Chandler Mansion. On April 12th, Krystal honored Colby by naming her daughter Jenny Colby Carey. On July 12, 2007, Krystal also named Colby Jenny's godmother. After Colby learned that Adam paid Ava Benton to plant drugs on Sean, she moved out of her father's mansion, and moved in with her goddaughter Jenny, Krystal, and Tad Martin. Colby was spoiled, selfish and hostile towards Krystal and Babe at first, but her time in Pine Valley has changed her for the better as she has recently put the bulk of her bad behavior behind her and emerged a much kinder and generous person.
[edit] Rivalry with Sydney Harris
During an initial storyline involving Sean Montgomery and Sydney Harris, Colby began a Paris Hilton vs. Nichole Richie rivalry with Sydney, the Chandler maid's niece. They fought over Sean but after the storyline, Sydney disappeared from the canvas.
Colby is now a senior at Pine Valley High School. Adam wanted Colby to attend Wellesley but she turned down her acceptance there in favor of PVU, hoping to stay close to her family. Colby has developed a little crush on the older Frankie Hubbard, upon meeting him. But Frankie sees her as a kid, but during a summer storyline, their going to have a relationship filled with family drama because of their fathers (Adam Chandler and Jesse Hubbard).
