In the chaotic civil war of a City known as San Paro, things get messy, in many different ways. From the destruction of property to cars exploding on the street and the bits of people that are sent flying, it all has to be cleaned up. Someone has to do it, even if it could be considered illegal by whatever law, even if its work for horrible people like the annoying and loud kids of the bloodroses or the G-King’s thugs. They’re usually too busy playing loud music in their car and trying to run away with their saggy pants falling off of them because it's being dragged down by the stolen goods of a man they just shot. His blood splattered on a nearby wall, his body riddled with an uncountable number of holes from the being sprayed down by a N-FA9. The criminals are too busy trying to get out of there before they’re spotted, but, they know they can’t just leave the body there with all the bullets around it. This is where Scarlett, or, known to the Criminals simply as “Red” comes in. She often spends most of her time in a little hideout, browsing the web until she gets a call about things like this.

 

Red’s jobs often involves her cleaning up the messes left behind by the thugs of the G-Kings and Bloodroses. It certainly isn’t an easy nor sanitary job, sometimes it can be outright dangerous with the risk of getting caught being a completely random factor. Red often goes in alone and if she’s unlucky enough to be caught by Enforcers or a rival gang, she knows her job got a lot harder. But she knows someone has to do this, it’s good money as criminals are willing to pay good cash in order for Red to keep the Enforcers off their asses or to least slow them down in their investigations. The money is the only thing keeping her on the side of the criminals, she knows the CSA and it’s Enforcers might be willing to cut some corners to have her on their side with her knowledge of who did what crimes. However, Red prefers the illegal side of things because of the rush she originally got from her first crime, where, a need for money and to satisfy her sweet tooth led her to rob and shoot a man in order to buy several boxes of chocolate bars. She was almost caught because of her failure to properly dispose of the body, this lead her to her current profession. She couldn’t give up the rush of committing crimes yet wanted to stay in the shadows of it, becoming a Fixer allowed her to do such. It kept her in the know of the underworld, it helped her pay for what she desired, it got her connections with powerful people and access to some pretty fun firearms. Red knew she was falling into a dark pit that she couldn’t climb out of, should she ever be caught. But she didn’t care, it was a job that paid well even if it was bloody. She couldn’t rely on family, she couldn’t just go get a degree, this was the only option she had that she enjoyed.


 

But the biggest benefit of it, was the fact she had some degree of protection from other criminals or whoever wanted to toy with her. The countless clean up jobs she’s been on, the bullets that sometimes graze past her head, all the conversations about deals, people, and weapon shipments has allowed her to gather tons of information regarding the criminal world, even some information on the CSA’s more corrupt sides. She keeps most of it on a laptop with several USBs and a copy of data on her phone as backup. So, if someone she doesn’t particularly like...such as any of the Bloodroses’ brats is causing her trouble, or if she wants to ensure a client holds up their side of the deal, Red has the powers to utilize the information she’s gathered against them to make sure she gets paid or to get rid of them.


 

But, if Information isn’t enough to get her away, to get rid of someone, to keep the Enforcers off her patootie or if she has to ensure eye-witnesses don’t blabber, Red isn’t afraid to clean up her own messes. Even if it means picking up the chunks of some poor fool that met the wrong end of her EOL and Colby .45.


 

But if  there’s anything she’s learned from her twenty-three years of doing this, it’s that you can see some really messed up shit on these type of jobs. Red  claims to have learned about hundred-fifty ways of remove blood from a carpet alone based on the five-hundred more ways she’s seen how people died. To Red, this job has let her see how truly dark the citizens of san paro can be and that wearing black is the best way to keep bloodstains hidden.
 

 

 

 

 

Fun backstory, I like it! It's relatively original for APB.

 

Lots of bits, little bitty bits. Decent job emulating APB's writing style BTW.

 

Added to the directory!
