*[[Rain O'Fire Frazier]] born.<ref>“Seventeen years old, by our best guess.  We don’t know his name, but we have an idea about his powers.  Breaking things, primarily.  Mover ability.  Tinker ability.  Emotion power.  The last three are weak.” - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/02/06 Excerpt] from [[Interlude 4a II]]</ref>

“''Listen'',” Tecton said.  “''I’m not demanding anything here.  I just need a straight answer, so I know what to tell the others.  If you say you’re not going to be here, that’s- I’ll understand.  Except not really, but I’ll…''” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/07/13 Excerpt] from [[Scarab 25.6]]</ref> Thus, Riley must have been born sometime between June 20, 1998 and January 19, 1999. However, when Taylor saw Bonesaw's picture after the Undersiders attacked the PRT building on June 4, 2011,<sup>[[Timeline#2011|&#91;*&#93;]]</sup> she guessed Bonesaw was maybe Aisha's age.<ref name="10.6 eBonesawPic" /> Thus, Riley's birth year is presumably 1998 to be closer to Aisha's birth year of 1997.<sup>[[Timeline#1997|&#91;*&#93;]]</sup><br><br>Dinah is presumably not much younger than Riley: Taylor guessed Bonesaw looked barely older than Dinah as of June 4, 2011.<ref name="10.6 eBonesawPic">“Bonesaw.” he spoke.  The girl on the screen looked barely older than Dinah, maybe the same age as Aisha.  The image showed her wide-eyed, a spray of dried blood painted her face at a diagonal. - [[Parasite 10.6]]</ref> Note that Dinah was 12 years old at the time,<ref>'''Dinah Alcott''' – A powerful clairvoyant, twelve years old, has straight brown hair. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/cast-spoiler-free/ Cast]</ref> the same age as Riley.</small></div></div>
