Aryn Carol Minty (July 24, 2008 - November 4, 2079) was an American executive and former United States Air Force Captain who served as the CEO of the Ross Corporation from 2046 to 2051.

Early life and military career
Minty was born in New York City. Her father, Arthur Randolph Minty, was an aerospace engineer at Northeast Concordia, and her mother, Karen Michelle (nee Clark) was a lawyer. Prior to enlisting in the Air Force, she attended New York University, earning an M.S. in Applied Physics in 2030.

Minty began her Pilot Training in 2030, serving the next 10 years as a fighter pilot and earning the rank of Captain in 2034, and the rank of Major in 2040. On November 4, 2039, her jet crashed on the runway due to a mechanical failure, resulting in her left arm being torn off against the ground. Following the injury she used an unskinned Coe roboprosthetic arm to replace the lost limb.

Career at the Ross Corporation
Minty joined the Ross Corporation in 2040 as the strategical head of development for the company's defense wing. By 2042 she was the COO of the company. Her nickname at the company was "Major", owing to her USAF rank.

Minty was present during the 2045 Ross Tower bombing. She was on the eight floor balcony at the moment of the blast, and fell three stories down when it collapsed, emerging mostly unharmed to assist first responders in the earliest rescue efforts.
