Elizabeth Gates/3.0

Elizabeth Gates is a character role-played by OurLadyOfRaptors.
==Backstory==
Elizabeth "Lizzy" Gates became a lawyer at 18. She attended a prestigious private university, Saint Lazarus University. Her mother may have been friends with members of the board but she would have gotten in anyway. Elizabeth graduated from high school at 13, started college at 14, and started her masters in law degree at 16. Because of her parents constant emphasis on study, schooling, and education, Elizabeth was never allowed to do most fun activities. She wasn't allowed to go to movies, hang out with friends, or join any nonacademic extracurriculars. Elizabeth never learned to drive & does not have a drivers license. 
== Current Day ==
On August 7th, 2023 Elizabeth was elected as a Judge for the Department of Justice.
After the debacle of her last boyfriend, Elizabeth is on a very successful Ho Arc.
== Moving to Los Santos ==
Elizabeth originally moved to the city and worked for the District Attorney's Office under DA Jacob Slate. When the DA's Office was dissolved, she chose to become a criminal defense attorney instead of joining SPU. Elizabeth loves to train new attorneys & so she formed her own law firm, The Gates of Law. 
Elizabeth met Tom Ato at Dean World and the two hit it off pretty quickly. Tom asked her on a date and took her on a flight of the city and a picnic on the Kortz Center roof. The two quickly moved into an apartment together as Elizabeth was being threatened by Sai Carter. 
== Alec Castile ==
Nathaniel Greyson was asked to be a special prosecutor for a death penalty case in another state. He offered Elizabeth the opportunity to come along and work with him. The two represented a man named Alec Castile, who was facing the death penalty for serial assaults and killings. Alec was very personable and his story was that of a man lost in the system. Elizabeth truly believed the courts would sentence him to life in prison. When the courts found him guilty and sentenced him to death, she was shocked. Greyson and Elizabeth had promised Alec that they would stay by his side to the very end, no matter what. That's how Elizabeth found herself watching someone die for the first time in her life as he was executed by firing squad. The resulting guilt and trauma caused her to run, going back home and ghosting everyone in Los Santos, including Tom.
== Doctor Arc ==
Elizabeth is back in Los Santos but she is not the same person she was. Understandably, Tom and Elizabeth broke up and she returned her keys to him. Elizabeth will always love Tom and would do anything for him but she knows they are happier apart than together. She has taken over caring for Iggy, his iguana since Tom has shown up less and less in Los Santos. 
In the meantime she started a new career as a Doctor at Pillbox Medical Center. By healing the people of Los Santos and saving lives, she's hoping to slowly erase some of the blood she feels stains her hands. She also started a tentative new romance with Franky Dulio. Franky taught Elizabeth how to have fun and to take her mind off working all the time. Franky would take Elizabeth off duty to hang out and get her to relax. However Franky grew frustrated at how long her work hours were and of standing at the hospital for hours waiting for her. When he had to fly home to help his parents in Canada, Elizabeth missed him terribly. 
While working at Pillbox Medical with a patient who had overdosed on metamorphine, Elizabeth was accidently injected with the drug. She was immediately checked into the ICU and kept overnight for observation after she began to show signs of metamorphine overdose as well. Seren Aide was there visiting the patient and was the only one to come and visit Elizabeth in the hospital that night. The lonely night in the ICU and the thought of going home to an empty house made Elizabeth stay an extra night in the ICU. She realized that she was upset that Franky wasn't there for her even if it wasn't his fault. She even confessed to her best friend Charlotte Spade that she thought she was developing a crush on Seren. 
After Goth Night at Tequila-la-la, Seren and Elizabeth spent hours drinking and partying and just laughing in various places in nature. Over the course of the night, Elizabeth drunkenly told Seren about her crush on him. He said that he liked her as well. After talking about Elizabeth putting herself and her happiness first for the first time in her life, she decided Franky, while she loved him, didn't make her happy. Elizabeth ended up buying an apartment that night, and invited Seren to stay the night but told him that it would be platonic cause she didn't want to cheat on Franky. The next day she broke up with Franky and a few days later, Seren and Elizabeth started dating. 
After a long relationship, Elizabeth broke up with Seren since he was overly protective and she felt smothered.
