She is very social and makes friends easily but she will only let someone get so close before she puts up her walls due to her trust issues.

Esmeralda gets bored easily and is quite restless which is another reason for her frequent travel. She knows many things and is very intelligent. She never forms an opinion on something unless she knows everything about it, not wanting to seem ignorant.

Esmeralda is rather feisty, not easily intimidated and doesn't back down from anyone regardless of who they are.

Esmeralda has a close relationship with her aunt and loves reading her books. She enjoys shopping with her and usually goes to her for life advice and for traveling tips.

Esmeralda isn't as close to her uncle as she is to her aunt for a few reasons. Ben is a bit strict and doesn't approve of her lifestyle, wanting her to be more stable and safe.

Past: Esmeralda's parents died in a plane crash when she was 4. Her mom's sister and her husband took her in and began to raise her as their own in Paris, France where they lived. Esmeralda was exposed to many wonders and adventures due to their constant traveling. 

When she was 16, after a volatile relationship with her ex-boyfriend, he soon began to stalk her, eventually raping her and brutally beating her. With the support of her aunt and uncle, Esmeralda reported the rape and he was later arrested and sent to jail. Deeply traumatized by the incident, Esmeralda became more of a wild child, partying and going places to mask her pain and hide it.

After graduating from high school, Esmeralda moved out, wanting to strike out on her own. She quickly received a job as a model and dancer due to her looks and knowing many people.

Dress Style: Dominique is a goth and dresses as such.




Family:

Father: Brian Tester | Trucker | Alive
Dominique despises his father and doesn't regard him as such. He underwent hellish abuse and torment from him which led to him becoming the person he is today. Dominique still has nightmares about his father and is a bit paranoid about him tracking him down but hides it from others, not wanting to talk about it.

Mother: Tonya Rosetta (née Jones) | Flight attendant | Alive
Dominique is close to his mother and enjoys hearing about her travels despite not being one for it himself. Tonya loves her son deeply and wants the best for him, fully supporting his dreams of becoming a songwriter and musician. She tends to embarrass and annoy him with her bluntness and honesty which can lead to rather tense moments between them.
 
Stepfather: Dale Rosetta | College professor | Alive
Dominique considers Dale to be his father and addresses him as such. He often goes to him when he needs someone to confide in and rant to. Dale worries about Dominique's career choice, preferring for him to be more stable but he acknowledges his talent and wants him to be happy more than anything.
 
Older Brother: James Tester | College student | Alive
James is quite protective of Dominique due to their rough childhood and is always there for him whenever he needs something. He likes Dominique's songs and is enthusiastic about him succeeding as in the music industry. Dominique enjoys spending time with James although they are opposites in several ways which can lead to some conflict.
 
Younger Sister: Ashley Tester | Stripper | Alive
Dominique looks after Ashley and makes sure she's safe because of her lifestyle and her job. Sometimes he can be overbearing which leads to them butting heads due to Ashley's rebellious nature. They have a love-hate relationship, usually making sarcastic jabs at each other and arguing over trivial things but are very quick to protect each other, having a "Only I can fight with them" mentality.

Past: Born as the middle child of three children, Dominique, his siblings, and his mother suffered constant abuse and mistreatment from his father. Although Tonya tried to please Brian and quell his temper, it was never enough. The abuse just got more dangerous and painful. Dominique took the majority of the abuse, wanting to protect his family from Brian's wrath.

On Dominique's 12th birthday, Tonya decided she had had enough and fled, taking him and his siblings with her. Unfortunately since Tonya's family was far away, they had to live on the streets homeless. But it was better than living under Brian's abusive eye. Dominique and his family continued to be homeless for the next two years until Tonya finally managed to get into contact with her sister Sierra who was a police officer. They quickly moved in with her and finally knew peace for the first time in their lives.

When Dominique was 16, Tonya met the man who would soon become his stepfather: Dale Rosetta who was a college professor. They married after a year of dating and Dominique began to finally experience the true love of a father. After graduating from high school, he ultimately moved out to pursue his dreams of becoming a songwriter and musician instead of going to college.

Dominique met a man named Ben McKinley after a concert and after the latter discovered the former's talent for songwriting and making music, he took him under his wing and introduced him to his niece Esmeralda which lead to them becoming roommates.

Allergies: N/A


Personality

Veronica is a woman with a quiet, icy, and classy demeanor. She's usually distant and reserved, preferring to express herself through her actions rather than words. Whenever she does speak, she speaks candidly and bluntly with lots of sass. Veronica absolutely abhors small talk and frivolousness. Deep, interesting, and meaningful conversations are more up her alley. Veronica isn't easy to get close to and her headstrong, emancipated nature just makes it even more difficult. She applies the term "Quality over quantity" to everything in her life, especially people. She's rather choosy and picky about who she allows in her heart and is very observant which helps her with making those decisions.

Veronica is very ambitious and has a hard work ethic, bordering on being a workaholic. She's very dominant, tough-minded, and disciplined. She has a "common sense" and "big sister" role amongst her peers, giving them advice, warning them of their actions, and being very protective of them. Veronica has a lot of hidden trauma and pain hidden underneath her "ice queen" persona and keeps many cards close to her chest. She prefers to keep her feelings inside and rarely expresses them.

But one would be a fool to think that Veronica doesn't have a wild and crazy side. Sometimes she gets tired of putting up her walls and will let them down but only when she truly feels comfortable enough to do so. When she does so, Veronica will become kind and even generous and affectionate. She also isn't afraid to have a good laugh and has a healthy if not varied sense of humor. Because of the amount of pain Veronica has gone through in her life, she has a high amount of empathy as well as a big heart and can easily insert herself into other people's shoes. If she sees someone in trouble or struggling, no matter how big or small, she'll do everything in her power to help them if they'll accept it. Her compassion knows no bounds.
 
Veronica's trauma and pain runs deep and it has caused her to become rather repressed and inhibited, especially sexually. She has kept everything inside for so long that she doesn't know how to be vulnerable and open up to others. Despite her beauty, Veronica doesn't think very highly of herself, thinks that her body is unattractive and unworthy of sex and love, and also feels guilt and shame when it comes to expressing herself sexually and having sexual desires. This is something that Veronica is afraid to admit despite evidence to the contrary and it has caused issues in her personal relationships which causes more pain for her.

Theme Song: Missing by Evanescence

Fears: Being taken advantage of, being vulnerable
Favorite Color: Black
Hobbies: Reading, cars, motorcycles, video games, cooking
Tastes In Music: What Veronica listens to depends on how she's feeling. She has a wide variety of music that she listens to.

Family, Friends, and Foes


Family:
Mother: Aileen Grant (nee Banks) | Police Lieutenant | Alive
Stepfather: Anthony Grant | U.S. Navy (former), Fire Captain (current) | Alive
Stepuncle: Mark Grant | IT Specialist | Alive
Father: David Harrington | U.S. Marine (former), Engineer (current) | Alive
Stepmother: Charlene Harrington (nee Morton) | U.S. Army (former), Lawyer (current) | Alive

Stepbrother: Anthony Grant Jr. | Chef | Alive
Husband: Liam Park | U.S. Navy | Deceased
Son: Vincent Park | Deceased

Crush: Matt Miller, Johnny Gat, The Boss, Asha Odekar, Kinzie Kensington, Shaundi

Past: Veronica's father David was a U.S. Marine and he had met her mother Aileen while he was in college. They fell in love which resulted in Aileen getting pregnant and they eloped in Hawaii. The couple settled down in Fort Hood, Texas where Veronica was born. She had a happy childhood and many great memories but little did she know, things were going to get really bad really quickly.

Aileen and David had gotten divorced when Veronica was 8 due to irreconcilable differences and her parents shared custody of her but Veronica spent most of her time at her mom's place due to her father's career. Her mother had gotten remarried to an officer in the U.S. Navy who already had a son and her father had gotten remarried to a prominent military lawyer and had two more daughters.
 
Having a blended family made Veronica come out of her shell and she had great memories with her newfound stepparents and siblings but there were some bad memories to go along with them. Her stepfather Anthony's younger brother Mark was inappropriate with Veronica from the moment he first met her and the grooming soon escalated to full-blown rape when she was 13. Whenever there was a family gathering or reunion, Veronica would be subject to sexual and mental abuse at the hands of Mark but as she got older, she began to fight back against him and avoided him whenever possible, wanting to get away from him and never see him again.

After graduating from high school, Veronica decided to enlist into the Marines, following in her father's footsteps and her MOS was 5811: Military Police. She quickly built a name for herself thanks to her determination/tenacity, hard work ethic, and sassy attitude and it wasn't long before she worked her way up the ranks and became a Special Agent in the Criminal Investigation Division. During this time, she met a Korean man by the name of Liam Park who was a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S. Navy and was serving alongside her unit. The two instantly gravitated towards each other and it wasn't long before they started dating and began a passionate love affair. They eventually had a son together named Vincent after Veronica got her Bachelor's in Criminal Justice and eloped six months later.

Veronica was very good at her job to the point where she was considered lethal (even being awarded a Silver Star for her actions) and after 6 years in the Marines, she left due to a back injury and decided to settle down in Steelport with her husband and son where she was contacted by Cyrus Temple. Because of her career in the Marines, he had wanted her to join STAG and work alongside him and Kia to take down the gangs in Steelport. But tragedy struck when Liam and Vincent were killed by a drunk driver which devastated Veronica.
 
Not having much direction in life at that point and full of grief, Veronica agreed to join STAG to support herself but it wasn't long before she came to regret her decision due to STAG's tactics and her own personal dislike for Cyrus and Kia. She got her chance to escape when she went undercover within the Saints and her growing relationships within the gang only solidified her decision. Finally knowing where she belonged, Veronica turned on STAG and became a full-fledged Saint from then on and has been part of the gang ever since while dealing with her grief and her various demons that constantly plague her.

But due to her powers, she always managed to survive. Vigrid eventually won the war but not without suffering extreme casualties including the death of Trinity's father. Wanting to escape from the horrible memories, Trinity quickly enrolled into Alfea, eager to start a new life.

Planet: Riley is from Vigrid.
Abilities: Riley is a skilled martial artist and is also a proficient swordsman. Due to him being a gypsy, he has some skills in witchcraft but rarely uses it.

Personality: Riley isn't very talkative at first glance. He is secretive and mysterious, not one for divulging information about himself. Riley is cynical and only reveals information when he needs to. He's tough and loves a good fight/challenge but he's also sensible enough to sense trouble a mile away. If he feels his friends are getting too enthusiastic or drawing unnecessary attention to themselves, he uses sarcastic cracks to jolt them to their senses. Riley is a philosopher and gives unbiased, calm advice which makes him a good person to go to. In spite of his dry wit and lukewarm demeanor, he truly values his friends and is quite protective if not possessive of them. Riley hides his turmoil and suffering through his sarcastic and tough front, not wanting others to think differently of him or pity him. Although he is cunning and sly, one thing that many people can say about Riley is that he's very dependable to the point of being the "big brother" amongst his friends.

Riley is possessive of Trinity and gets easily jealous where she's concerned. Although he does care about her and wants the best for her, he sometimes gets annoyed by her prideful nature and wishes that she would depend on him completely and belong only to him. Ironically Riley is rather dependent on Trinity especially when it comes to his issues. He loves her very much and isn't afraid to show or say it.

Family:
Adoptive Mother: Bellemere | Deceased
Older sister: Esmeralda | Alive
Past: Riley was born to a pair of gypsies who were killed not too long after he was born. He and his older sister Esmeralda were taken in by a female named Bellemere who was the general of the Vigrid army. When Riley became of age, he and his sister were trained rigorously in preparation for the upcoming war by their adoptive mother and he became the princess Trinity's bodyguard in the process. 

During the war, Bellemere was killed right in front of Riley and he was kidnapped and tortured by some of Seymour's soldiers for several days before finally being rescued by the royal family. The experience traumatized him and he was never the same again after that incident. Riley began to train more intensively, not wanting to get hurt ever again or lose anyone else close to him. He soon enrolled in Red Fountain, wanting to hone his skills and to hopefully start anew and escape his past.

Leticia became very religious but was also abusive, neglectful, and an alcoholic. At the age of five, Candace was molested and raped by a man named Dylan that her mother was dating. Although she told her mother, it fell on deaf ears and Candace internalized the pain and began to go down a dark path.

Starting at age 7, she began stealing and lying compulsively and by age 13, she was hanging with the wrong crowd, becoming sexually active, and running away from home. Candace learned her many artifices and maneuvers from a close mentor/cousin of hers named Steve who was a transvestite. On her 16th birthday, she stole Leticia's mortgage money and a big argument ensued which led to Candace moving out on her own.

Steve's death only fueled the stirring fire within Candace and she decided to go to law school to become a lawyer. Now she's currently attending college, doing many things to get by including illegal activities.


~~About Her~~

Personality: Candace is a secretive, scandalous, roguish, and crafty jezebel with a very mischievous, flippant, saucy, presumptuous, and extremely nervy attitude. Often she subjugates others through her many forms of manipulation, extortion, low blows, and dirt she's able to obtain on people. Unprincipled and unscrupulous, Candace often engages in rather questionable activities and thuggish behaviors such as conning/robbing, being an escort and mistress, engaging in elaborate forms of blackmail, etc.

Candace often expresses a discontentment with growing up with nothing and the dysfunctional family life she feels was brought on by her mother's bad choices and sexual immoralities. As a result, she longs for wealth and power and will go to any and all lengths to rise to the top, not caring what it takes. Candace will even exhibit some signs of possible psychopathic behavior and often uses her feminine wiles to get what she wants.

Despite her vixen-like ways, Candace is a person who is devoted to and loyal to her closest friends and will do anything to be there for them and support them, even to the point of being self-destructive and reckless. In addition, Candace is very open-hearted and friendly, acting as such in her typical bold, uncaring fashion.

Personality


Shizuru is a stubborn, mischievous and rebellious young woman. She is the archetypal punk-rocker, expressed in both her music taste and style. She is bold and outgoing, has a big mouth often making snarky comments, acts fearless and loves to take risks, which often gets her in trouble. She can be prone to angry outbursts and has serious issues with trust due to suffering from abuse and manipulation from her peers and authority figures. She is a misanthropic loner, being generally distrusting of humanity as a whole.

Shizuru is decidedly stubborn and strong-willed, frequently letting her pettiness and vindictiveness get the better of her and she often has to be restrained and reprimanded by whoever is present. She is very individualistic, not being one to follow the crowd. She has a reputation for being an incurably sarcastic cynic, only too happy to bluntly and harshly relieve others of their comfortable delusions regarding emotions, reality, or their own self-importance.

Due to all her bad experiences over the years, Shizuru has become pessimistic and resentful of life, convinced that there wasn't really anyone who actually cared about her or who she could trust in hence her being a loner. She doesn't open up easily to people and can be rather intimidating due to her rough appearance.

Despite her rough outward appearance, Shizuru is actually really insecure and scared, and her tough acting may be nothing more than a facade she built up to protect herself from further harm. Very few people know Shizuru's deeper nature to be of selflessness, loyalty, and compassion. She also is a very protective, devoted and faithful companion and is pretty straightforward with her (romantic) feelings for other people, and also very flirtatious and teasing.

As someone who has had to suffer greatly at such a young age, Shizuru cannot ignore the true suffering of others and becomes sympathetic upon sensing pain and resolve in people's hearts. Though her solemn advice to such people is often tempered with brusque criticism, it is only because she genuinely wishes to place them on the most direct path forward. As one burdened by the mistakes of her past, Shizuru stresses the necessity of people taking responsibility for their own errs. Though she will intervene on behalf of the oppressed if she concludes that a situation has called for it, Shizuru tends to help only those with the will - but not the means - to help themselves, in which case her recklessness and disdain for authority often has her bending the rules (or outright breaking them) to dole out a Robin Hood-esque justice, which has earned her notoriety and popularity amongst people who are disadvantaged.

Past: Shizuru was born in Tokyo, Japan to two teen parents, her father being 17 and her mother being 16. Her mother passed away during childbirth and her father fell into a deep depression which became even worse when his father kicked him out onto the streets with a baby Shizuru in tow. For 3 years, Nobuo wandered the streets and lived from place to place, doing many things to survive such as prostitution and drug dealing. But it all stopped when he met Claudia Aguilar who was living in Japan because of her father being stationed there. Within six months, they fell in love and when Shizuru was 5, Nobuo and Claudia eloped and they moved to California where Claudia was from. It became easy for Nobuo to fit in surprisingly and he became a member of the Church of Jesus Christ for Latter-Day Saints, his family following suit. Claudia fulfilled her dream of owning her own auto shop, soon giving birth to Carbine and Carmelita. Nobuo left the Mormon church subsequently and converted to Christianity, starting his own church and becoming a motivational speaker. During childhood, Shizuru showed signs of advanced mental development and she was taken to a psychiatrist. It was discovered that she had a very high IQ of 187. 

At the age of 12, Shizuru graduated high school but the road wasn't easy. She was bullied frequently by fellow students and a teacher who had become a mentor to her began to molest and sexually abuse her. After graduating, Shizuru became even worse mentally when the same teacher kidnapped her, torturing, drugging, and raping her for three days. She managed to escape and was found by one of her neighbors. After being hospitalized and telling the cops everything she knew which lead to her former teacher's arrest and imprisonment, Shizuru began to prepare for college but was sidetracked due to giving birth without knowing she was pregnant on Christmas Day. Being only 13 and not knowing what to do, Shizuru named her son Castiel and left him in front of a nearby hospital. She kept everything a secret and vowed to take it with her to the grave.

Although getting into college was difficult due to her age, Shizuru decided to major in Psychology. She met Dominic Toretto when she was 15 and befriended him and his crew. She also struggled with PTSD and an addiction to dilaudid, cocaine, and heroin which was a result of being kidnapped by her former teacher. By the time she was 19, she had already received her PhD in Psychology. Now she also has a PhD in Chemistry and Engineering and BAs in Mathematics and Sociology. Shizuru has also been clean since age 20 but still struggles with PTSD, depression, and anxiety which she is currently getting treatment for.
