___________________________________________{Personality}______________________________________
Dylan might just look like nothing more than a pretty boy, but he certainly doesn't act pretty. Dylan lacks the normal social skills of most kids his age have. He swears so much that he would make any self-respecting parent uncomfortable. He also just talks way too much, especially when he's nervous. But he knows how to keep his mouth shut around important things, particularly if he's around a client. Since he works for basically every gang in L.A, it's important that he knows to keep his secrets. But while he never tells important info, he excels at talking people's ears off with useless stuff and crude jokes.

Dylan has lived around the criminal life of L.A for a long time and he's picked up a few things. One trait being how to flirt, despite being 14 he flirts with everyone. While he's never had a crush on anyone before, he certainly knows how to talk dirty. He's also picked up a smoking habit. He doesn't really even like it, he just does it when he's bored or upset.

While Dylan lacks all respect and politeness, He has an overload of energy. Part of the reason he makes for such a good messenger is because he can't sit still. He is always fidgeting with something or pacing, or just jumping up and down on the spot but whatever it is he does not sit still. That is unless he is sleeping, or drawing. the only stationary thing Dylan likes to do is draw. he draws basically everything. from a sewage drain to a bird If he has a pencil and some paper, he's drawing. He is also basically always wearing headphones and listening to music. Even when he's talking to other people.

If there's one thing Dylan's life in LA has taught him, it's to be independent. He doesn't want help from anyone. Anyways even if he did want help from someone, he wouldn't trust anyone to give him that help. At least not from the people he hangs around. Independence is key In the criminal world of LA. If you can't survive on your own you can't survive at all. Perhaps that's partly why Dylan hasn't joined a gang. Despite his extroverted nature He works best alone.

_____________________________________________{History}_________________________________________
Like many of the people working in the underground criminal life of L.A, Dylan is an orphan. His mother died at childbirth, And and months later after a terrific drinking bender, His father died in a car crash. After that Dylan went to live with his aunt. She was his father's sister, although they hadn't been close in a very long time. She wasn't a good guardian. She never shyed away from physical punishment and when she wasn't angry at him she mainly ignored him. He didn't mind though. Despite not being great at school he had a lot of friends and spent most of his time out of the house even though he was very young. She was also a very heavy drinker just like Dylan's father.

Dylan actually discovered his Aunt's connections to the criminal world quite innocently. He had been sick with the flu and the school wouldn't allow him to come with a fever. There were no babysitters available and his aunt had to go to work that day so She took him with her. Having heard enough phone calls and understanding more than any kid his age should, it didn't take Dlyan long to realize that his aunt ran a stripper club. Not only that, but the basement of the club was a sort of Speakeasy For drug deals and gang talk. It provided a between place for gangs to speak peacefully together. After that Dylan began to learn more and more about the underground life of LA. When he turned about 9 he began to deliver packages and messages between gangs because he was a cute kid and police weren't suspicious of him. It just seems like the natural thing to do since since his aunt was already part of the world.

He still went to school. but being unable to sit still for a long time and not exactly academically inclined, his marks began to drop drastically as he began working more and more as a messenger boy. He didn't mind, he didn't like school anyways and his aunt didn't exactly care either. In the end he really began working for her, he made money from delivering things between people and His aunt would take most of it. He didn't mind. He got to skip school and explore the city so he wasn't going to complain.

Middle school came around and he just got deeper into the world of dealing. He was surprised about the market for drugs in middle school. But by then he knew where to get a good supply of things and he took advantage of the kids who were beginning to experiment with certain drugs. He never told his aunt that he dealt at school because that way he got to keep the money. Things just got better for him in high school. The demand got bigger and he became more well known as a reliable dealer. That was until he got expelled. Funnily enough it wasn't even because He was drug dealing that he got expelled. Rather it was because he got into a fight with one of the teachers . Dylan can't even remember what The fight was about. Probably something to do with a test or work. Not that he cared what is marks were, he probably just wanted to get into a fight in the first place. Legally he still had to go to school, but no one was really paying attention to a kid like him. So he never went back to school.

I might be a mechanic, but I can't fix stupid
(view spoiler)[

_________________{Phoenix Laurence}_________________
____________________{Mechanic}___________________

{Name} Phoenix Laurence
{Age) 19
{Sexuality} Heterosexual
{Occupation} Mechanic for the Angels of Oblivion but she works for pretty much anyone.

___________________________________ {Appearance}__________________________________
Phoenix is about 5’4 with a slim and agile build. She has bright red hair to match her fiery name and green eyes. Usually she keeps her hair back in a high ponytail but once and a while she’ll let it hang loose around her shoulders. Her hands are often covered in pen since she likes do doodle on her arms and hands. Most of the time she is wearing dark clothing, doc martins and leather jackets. But she's a bit quirky and loves flannels too, and most of all pajamas. It's not unlike her to go to work our just out wearing flannel pajamas.



____________________________________{History}_____________________________________
Phoenix was 13 when her parents were killed in a car crash. They had been on the way to hospital since her mom was going into labour with her would have been younger brother. Phoenix was staying at one of her father’s family friends, but it wasn’t supposed to be a long-term arrangement. They loved her, but she wasn't supposed to stay long and after a few months they got fed up with taking care of her. Phoenix got put into the foster system, moving from house to house for about 3 months. Foster families were never good ones, and the few that were could never keep her for long. She finally landed in a house where she felt like she could be happy. With three other siblings, the house was always bustling with noise and the sound of cheerfulness. Phoenix loved it there, so when the parents told her that they weren’t going to keep her, it broke her heart.

She took to the streets after that, not willing to be moved around and have her heart broken like that every few months. Living on the crime riddled streets of L.A was not good for a little girl her age. She got involved in some pretty bad stuff. The kind of stuff that meant that if she had continued in that work she probably wouldn't have lived past 18.

But just when things got really bad, an Angel of Oblivion member found her. After that her life changed. She didn't go into a life of luxury, but she found a group to run with. Her skills tinkering with things came into use and she became the official mechanic. She didn't work only for Angels of Oblivion but she repairs their stuff for free, after all they are the ones who saved her.

________________________________{Personality}___________________________________
Phoenix is tough. She’s always been that way. She loves to fight and use her fists instead of her words. She knows that more often than not, words are a better way to stop something but she is a very energetic and physical person so she enjoys the hands on aspect of fighting. She doesn't even need to be angry to get into a fight, she likes to "spar" with other people just for the fun of it. Phoenix loves to get into a little trouble, go places she shouldn't be or take things that aren't hers, she sees it as a challenge and bit of a game. She loves games, anything that needs wit or smarts she immediately gravitates towards.

The one thing is, is that she can’t read. It’s not that she was never taught, but she is dyslexic. But don’t mention it, or you will get a fist to the face. Phoenix can’t stand kids and taking care of people. She isn't good at it and helpless people just annoy her in general. That doesn’t mean she’s anti-social though. While she does need her down time, Phoenix loves to get a bit wild and crazy. Life sucks sometimes, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have fun. That’s pretty much how she lives.

People are too complicated. You can't fix them with a wrench
