Monica Shelly (Cataclysmic Gerosha)

Monica Shelly is a fictional character in the Ferris Access Channel and DozerfleetTV original miniseries Blood Over Water. She was portrayed by actress Cassie Tilne.

Development
Originally, Cassie was going to play the role of Jessie Morcin in Kozerlen. When that idea was canceled, she was recast at the last minute for Part 4 as Aaron (Zach)'s friend Monica. Her last name was never listed in the end credits of a limited edition DVD remaster, nor in the miniseries proper. She is only ever referred to as merely "Monica." In the approved-for-cable version, the end credits identify her as Monica Shelly. Her surname still remains unmentioned in the series proper.

Personality
Monica is a dutiful, kind, but very timid woman who is very much in love with life and with her family. It is unknown just what kind of relationship she and Aaron have with each other.

Series history
Some time before the series, Monica started a family and got a job working in a science lab on a university campus. From there, she befriended Aaron. That comfortable existence was soon threatened when Aaron came barging into the breakroom where she was reading a newspaper, demanding that she test a sample of water. Before she knew it, thugs from Sleet Mountain had abducted her and intended to have her executed. Due to Chris' moral conflict, she wound up surviving the ordeal. It is implied that she and Aaron worked together to expose Sleet Mountain's CEO; but Monica herself was never seen again on screen after Part 4.
