History
Lorna appeared on the streets of seattle when she was fifteen, soon after learning to fend for herself she was approached by a female gang, and jumped into the gang. It was either that, or live out in the wet cobblestones of downtown Seattle, and be beaten every chance another gang got. With the Prima’s she had a warm place to sleep, and food when they stole it. In the end, it was the only choice she had. She has tried to keep her criminal activites to a minimum; but she enjoys being in a good fight, any chance she can get.
Known by law enforcement, short record: Gang affiliation, loitering, resisting arrest.
Character Development
The brother gang to the Prima Locas were jumped by some masked man calling himself Black Blade, as they innocently shot off guns and had a little fun. So the Prima Locas went after the man, Lorna kicked the back of the guy’s head to put him on the floor, so the girls to assemble into a group in front of him to take him out- completely.
However, the girls didn’t realize how good the Black Blade was in actual hand to hand combat. It wasn’t until the girls were getting their asses handed to them, that several of the girls took off. Lorna remained; wanting a good fight, and seeing him as possibly a good challenge for her. However, she knew she needed an edge. So she distracted him, after kicking his sword out of his hand and brushed her lips against his.
However, when she did that, he used the same distraction to distract her; by kissing her. And he stuck her with a small dagger laced with drugs to knock her out. She slid down his body, into a crumpled body at his face- which he scooped up and took with him to a nearby warehouse.
Offering her the chance to make something of her life, something better than her gang affiliation, and her young life being ended prematurely. Knowing that even if she didn’t take his offer, she had nowhere to go- rightly thinking her gang would think she had taken off with the Black Blade and turned against them, and would kill her if they saw her ever again- asking questions later, after she was six feet under. So she accepted.
Back at his house, he fed the malnourished girl, and gave her the opportunity to order herself some clothing (as she was in just a tank top and jeans, dirty and tattered).
Right away she assumed that his motives were sexual, yet he showed no interest in her at all. So she prodded, calling him a fag, to which he responded that he wasn’t- but he was celibate; he didn’t want the distraction of sex to upset his concentration. Which confused young Lorna; if he didn’t have sex, and she wasn’t there because he was attracted to her and wanted her, then… why exactly was she there.
And then he revealed she would be his partner in cleaning up the streets; he needed someone to help him, and share his passion in ridding Seattle of its gang violence, and other violence and injustices.
She readily accepted this, but she wanted to see if she could actually distract him. Unknowingly he had caught her in bed, and watched her for several minutes until she fell asleep; apparently igniting a long dead fire in him. So her plan was much easier than she thought it would be, and while it was all just a game she didn’t plan on acting on… in the end, after getting angry when he didn’t show much interest in her, she called him dead inside. Which was when he began to realize that he had in fact cut so many things out of his life, that part of him was dead. When he thought crime fighting would quence his every desire, it proved to be impossible when he realized in Lorna, what he was missing.
Gregor Brown was a rich man, with nice manners, and an education to rival anyone's, he had everything… except normalcy. He had his father’s money, and he had a bevy of beautiful women at his side- yet he always found they were after his money. So he decided to throw himself into more lofty goals, more important goals; fighting injustice in Seattle. He had the best trainers, he toned and trained himself to the point that he was the ultimate battle machine. But in this process, he had fired all of his staff- brought in new staff that would never leave the compound he had built for himself, they would keep his identity a secret, and work on his weapons and technology so he could have the best of the best in his arsenal. But in this time, he became a hermit, the outside world never seeing the older man, Mr. Brown leave his home. Perhaps it was his disappointment in love, and women that made him lock himself away from the outside world, or a want to do something right and good for the world. But there is no doubt that his disappointments must have some effect on him.
Lorna and Gregor agreed that they would train every morning, so that he could safely take her out with him on his crime fighting sprees at night, but the afternoons would be hers to teach him how to live again.
