[OOC] California Love -- An L.A. 90's Crime RP

[Byrd Man]

I'm putting the kibosh on the serial killer app and denying it. I've got a serial killer angle planned out and I'll be NPCing the serial killer.

[Eviledd1984]

Fair enough then i had another idea for a FBI agent?

[Byrd Man]

I mean if the sheet is good then go for it.

Slippin' and slidin', CK ridin'.

Name: Kentrell “KP” Price

Age: 19

Occupation/Affiliation: Denver Lane Gangster Bloods (DLB, DLGB, Lanes)

Physical Description: Price stands at a lithe 6’1 and has smashed in his frame a reasonable amount of muscle for someone his age. Strewn across his back is a tattoo brandishing the initials of his gang, “DLB”.

History: Born aloof in the Vermont Vista apartments in 1978 to Regina and Andre Price, Kentrell and his five siblings: Marcus, Shontay, Terrell, Lorraine, and Darius were no exceptions to the poverty pervading the Vista and many other black neighborhoods. Following the outsourcing of most of Los Angeles’ factories in the middle and late seventies, thousands of African American and Latino blue collar salarymen without access to higher education found themselves out of work and in abject need.

The Price family patriarch fell to drug use, and the Price matriarch struggled to find work as well. A story typical, Price and his siblings turned to peers and distant family for help. For three of the Price clan: Kentrell, Shontay, and Terrell there was initiation. The youngest of the three, Kentrell, is the most aggressive and is willing to go to great lengths or what he believes is the betterment of his neighborhood and his family. His brash attitude is catalyst for the trouble he often finds himself in with both law enforcement and neighboring sets.

Since his initiation at a mere 11 years old, Kentrell has been merely a gang member, but in the weeks leading up to his 20th birthday and following a recent shootout with the Raymond Avenue Crips who border the Denver Lanes to the north and are some of the Lanes’ most bitter rivals, “KP” is about to earn his stain, this is where his story begins.

Ellie Cooper

Name:
Ellie Cooper
Age:
26
Occupation/Affiliation:
Los Angeles Police Department- Emergency Dispatcher

Physical Description:
Ellie’s unmanageable, curly mane and small stature has unintentionally left her desperate for an identity outside of a teen member of the 90’s youth rebellion or a worshipper of Mariah Carey. Standing at 5’0, she regularly finds herself battling to prove her age, though her knack for inappropriate humor certainly doesn't help. Her skin is pale and unmarked, a direct result of the hours she finds herself tucked behind a computer, and the rest of her features parallel her light complexion.

History:
Unlike many who flood California, Ellie came to the state stripped of hope. She had no job waiting, no big interviews or auditions in line, and certainly no money to hold her above water.

Raised in a small town in Colorado, Ellie met the man she would marry in high school and they had their own small ceremony only days after their graduation. She endured the struggles of the police academy alongside him, postponing her own dream of college and instead working various small jobs in an effort to keep them afloat as they attempted to balance the first few years of a new life together.

Four years after being commissioned, her husband was dispatched to a domestic violence call. Upon arrival, he was met by a meth cook with a gun that ultimately took his life. Investigation later showed that a database error brought him to the incorrect address. Ellie stayed in Colorado just long enough to attend the funeral and sell what she could, including their home. She packed her trunk and drove originally to Las Vegas where her bank account was drained, then bounced West until she hit water. A job outside of waitressing that did not require further education added to a twisted sense of honoring her late husband was enough for her to put on a headset and become a dispatcher. Unfortunately, dealing with the issues of a city everyday never seems to solve her own.

Celia Carter

Name: Dr. Celia Carter

Age: 30

Occupation/Affiliation: Forensics Scientist with the F-B-I office in Los Angeles.

Physical Description: Celia has sandy brown hair with green eyes. She weighs approximately 125 lbs. her height doesn’t matter much because she is confined to a wheel chair.

History: Celia is very self-confident in her abilities but doesn’t brag about them. She would prefer to observe and analyze before making any deductions. However, underneath that quiet exterior and smiling façade is a young woman who firmly believes that she is the smartest person in the room. Celia usually has a smile on her face and is willing to do whatever it takes to help solve the case. Once the case is solved Celia loves to let her hair down and live it up, but when she is on a case Celia is ALL business.

Celia was a “unique” child born to a father who was banker and a mother who was the manager of a local theater troop. Celia’s uniqueness stemmed from the fact that she was basically one of those child geniuses that everyone talks about with an unreal drive to know why things work they do they or why do things happen the way they do. Whether it was a lab top, studying the human body, how a car works, it didn't matter Celia had to know.

She graduated from high school at the age of 15 and UCLA at 19. By the time she was 23 Celia had already earned her PHD human anatomy. All of this training and intelligence did not mean that Celia was an all work no play type of girl. She was a hit on the campus party scene, because she used her chemistry knowledge to help “liven” up several parties in college. All her concoctions were perfectly legal as well and earned her the nickname “The Wizard.”

Celia’s intelligence caught the attention of the F-B-I and they brought her on to the crime lab where she excelled quickly. Her abilities though had a habit of making her arrogant, but one night all that changed in 1992. While she was working a case involving a bomber Celia was caught in a blast at the bomber’s apartment when they thought the scene was cleared. The explosion left her paralyzed from the waist down. It had a very humbling effect on Celia and made her much more pleasant to deal with, but there her times she does get somewhat frustrated by her current circumstances.
