Parma was a recon for the missing Alpha Squad.
"Parma was the youngest of the bunch, a very talented Recon, but with little combat experience. She and I went to the academy together and I can remember the day when the simulator technicians had thought their program was busted due to Parma's performance. She actually apologized! But still, I'm worried about her. From the reports that I've read, the Clockworks are unlike anything we've ever encountered. I only hope that as she keeps them informed of what's ahead, that they will watch her back."

Notes
Upon joining the Spiral Order, Parma was a classmate to Kora.
Although Parma isn't physically seen, her scout is encountered in the final floor of the 10-2 Mission: Dreams and Nightmares. This scout allows her to communicate. Parma informs knights about how the Swarm is leeching off of the Core and gaining power, while a mysterious entity dubbed "The Sleeper" gets weaker. She then encourages the knights to warn Haven and the Spiral Order about the situation.
Since Parma's scout seems to be a modified E-Class battle sprite, and battle sprites match the personal colors of their masters, it is reasonable to assume that Parma's personal color is the same as her scout's.

A recording from Parma, Alpha Squad Recon:
- Someone out there has it in for me. While in recon training I was routinely frustrated by the limits of the training simulations- I knew they were not real. I craved the open air, soil beneath my feet and the wind. I wanted the challenge only the wild can offer.
The Skylark crash was horrible, and the resulting situation even worse. But when Captain Ozlo selected me for this squad I was excited- there is no greater wild than what this planet offered. Is that wrong?
But then as we stepped off of that first elevator platform and sunlight warmed our faces it began to sink in: the grinding of gears, the buzzing of enormous lights, the smell of smoke and the steam-filled air... the wild we had stepped into was not real. It was another simulation.
More ironic still is how little of my training actually applies now. This world is crazy, the terrain changes constantly. I think this squad would have been better off with another guardian instead of me. At least then they would be better prepared to fight whatever they didn't see coming.
A recording from Parma, Alpha Squad Recon:
- We are at the end of the line. Pursued by some kind of terrible darkness we are forced into the unknown.
As we neared the Core- I don't know how to describe this really... the shadows came alive and began to attack us. Rulen became enveloped in it and by the time Grantz freed him his body was badly burned. He said it felt like both fire and ice.
And then we could go no further. As I record this, the darkness is nearly upon us, consuming the world we see, the light.
But then the Core, it began to open, filling the place with such a light, such an intense, blinding light. Euclid has made the call; faced with the darkness, we'll enter the core, enter the light.
This will likely be my final recording.
