AU NAME: Lucy Takada She's going to lose her shit when she remembers the significance of that last name, it'll be fun. AU AGE: 18 AU OCCUPATION: High school dropout, probably works a bunch of temp jobs BLURB:
She was born to Japanese-American parents in San Francisco, but was surrendered at birth for ??? reasons I haven't decided. Her birth father probably ditched, her mom evaporated, and she has no idea who either of them are and at the moment doesn't care to find out.
Either placed in a failing children's home where she snapped and beat her bullies' faces in or placed in a string of unsuitable foster homes. I'm undecided on whether to keep or cut out the orphanage but violence is a universal constant with Lucy. She's an angry child.
Most likely got herself in trouble with the law a lot; truancy, trespassing, assaults, batteries, broken windows, shoplifting, jaywalking, general Bad Behavior etc. She's most likely been incarcerated at some point for minor offenses but obviously not to the degree she was in canon. Police characters or people involved with that sort of thing might have had her case file come across their desk, particularly if they were in the state of California a few years ago.
Her hair and eyes are naturally brown, but she dyes her hair pink and wears ~edgy~ contacts to signify to herself that she's started a new life. Or trying to.
And she obviously doesn't have horns, that'd be weird.
Friends are always good, either Bad Behavior ones or Good People ones. She could easily meet a bunch of people in passing as coworkers or what have you, she wanders a lot.
Employers who are either willing to look the other way when her background checks turn up a significant rap sheet or work with her to improve. Or, yanno, encourage her to resume punching people she doesn't like, either/or. She has to afford that hair dye somehow.
Potential mentors? This angry teenager could use some help.
A long shot, but older characters who might have known her parents (or are her parents, plot twist) would be interesting down the line.
Bonus critical weakness round: shy girls who like art things. She'll be substantially less belligerent around them, it's like magic.
