Baby Blue refuses to discuss the reason for her childlike appearance, though her posts from a web forum 20 years ago recount having inadvertently discovered the fountain of youth, which happened to be a shower in a random room in a random motel on a rural highway. This received only a passing mention as part of a much lengthier rant about how quickly the shower ran out of hot water.

Residence

Baby Blue resides in a small studio apartment located at 221 South Baker Street, Unit B in Edge City.

Features of Baby Blue's apartment include an unsettlingly loud window air conditioner, a bookshelf loaded so heavily with various volumes it appears to be on the verge of collapse, and an old CRT television set, complete with faux woodgrain, plugged into a questionable-looking coaxial cable hanging down from the ceiling.

Ackerman "Baby Blue" Dodridge is a mysterious woman living in EdgeCity, Centralia.

Despite having the appearance and demeanor of a 12-year-old child, Baby Blue is an adult woman, and she often tells other adults that she is "old enough to be your mother." Her nickname derives from her usual attire, a blue sailor suit that resembles a school uniform but does not correspond to any school you've heard of.

Baby Blue drives a large black SUV that makes her look amusingly small in comparison. She is known to carry a Makarov pistol, though nobody is quite sure if it's a real gun or a very convincing prop, since nobody has ever seen her actually fire it.

Baby Blue's favorite soft drink is Diet Faygo. She is rarely seen without a bottle of Diet Faygo in her hands or in the cupholder of her SUV.
