With the one negative entry out of the way, we are now on the up and up.

Kerry Loudermilk is a girl who shares a body, as it were, with a scientist at Summerland by the name of Cary Loudermilk. In short, their relationship is as follows: Cary takes care of the technical stuff, whereas Kerry's expertise lies in bonafide action. This is for a good reason too, as she is shown to be exceptionally skilled at hand-to-hand combat.

She is a character who is defined by her childlike sense of wonder. And if you think that that would be tiresome, you would be absolutely wrong. Due in large part to actress Amber Midthunder's sheer commitment to the roll, Kerry's overexcited attitude towards fighting works perfectly. Moreover, there is an interesting dynamic between her personality and her love of fighting that acts as the character's flaw, as she will run headlong into a fight without first devising a proper plan. During the battle at the lighthouse, we see that this can be a major detriment, as her pure skill can only take her so far.

We also get a taste of her side of the codependency that goes along with her and Cary's relationship, if only for a few fleeting moments. This leads us to Kerry's one major drawback, which is a need of more screentime. As of right now, she's more or less a flat character, but there is lots of potential just around the corner.
