==General Information==
Anne-France "Frankie" Gray is an attorney who enjoys working criminal defense and civil rights cases. She is also a criminal who is comfortable toeing the line of doing crime and remaining in good standing with the state bar.
==Physical Description==
Frankie is 5' 11" and has a slightly lean build. Her style tends to be tomboyish with goth accents, but she will occasionally change up her style to be more femme when she's in the mood. She currently keeps her medium-length hair dyed green and teal and it tends to be one of her core identifying features. She also has several tattoos on her upper body.
==Background Information==
Frankie was born and raised in Lawrence, Kansas along with her two younger brothers and older sister. Her father taught in the engineering department at the local university and her mother managed the home. Her parents were very active in their church, with her mother especially devoting her efforts to the church. To an external observer the family seemed the epitome of the midwestern nuclear family, but behind the façade was less picture-perfect.
Her mother's devotion to the church overshadowed the other aspects of her life to such a degree that she often directed Frankie's older sister to do the primary caregiving tasks for the other siblings. Her brothers were much younger than Frankie and her sister, so her sister concentrated her attention on them and Frankie was largely left to her own devices. For most of her childhood this suited Frankie just fine and she preoccupied herself playing with her friends, reading books, and tinkering with electronics and computers her father supplied her with.
This independence quickly turned to isolation in her teenage years as she began to develop into an adult. She had been trying to express her femininity from a young age, but was consistently punished by her parents for doing so. At 17 she was finally exposed to information about transness and was able to fully recognize that she was a young woman. Believing that her father's logic would ultimately win over bigotry she came out to her parents, but she was sadly wrong and her family kicked her out and disowned her. She hasn't heard from her family since. To this day the trauma of this event lives with her; she fears developing relationships that have the potential to hurt her by abandoning her and distrusts people who try to leverage the concept of familial love to strengthen a relationship.
She spent the next several years homeless, relying on the kindness of others and hopping trains to other cities when she felt she needed to change location. Although she had learned independence from her childhood, homeless existence honed her ability to independently survive. She has faced illness, hunger, and violence, but has always found the will and resources needed to survive. Her sense of morality and ethics is informed by her experience during this time - while she has a general respect for life she doesn't let that or the letter of the law constrain her drive to survive and can easily empathize with people 'doing what has to be done.' She also thinks its morally right to take from the 'haves' and give to the 'have-nots'.
Around the age of 25, Frankie was taken under the wing of a couple who helped to get her off the streets. The couple happened to be the Road Captain of an outlaw MC and his Ol' Lady. They made sure she had steady work at a club-affiliated auto shop and taught her how to adult and keep herself off the streets. Because of the care and support given to her, that couple is extremely important to her and although she won't call them 'family', she considers them her adoptive  parents. As a result of her experience with her family and her adoptive parents, she is fiercely loyal to those that have shown her support and acceptance and will go to irrational lengths for them. On the flip side, she is wary about getting too close for fear of being abandoned again and she is very slow to trust people as a result. There are exceptions to this, such as when she develops a crush as she tends to fall fast and hard.
They and the other club members she interacted with nurtured in her a love of bikes, and she even chose her name based partially on that new found love. She developed an interest in the law when she saw how the MC was being pushed around by the police. Over the course of several years, she was able to get her GED and go to college for pre-law but unfortunately, the MC didn't last and ultimately fell apart from the pressure before she could graduate. Her adoptive parents have been in prison since and she dropped out of law school. Since that time she used the lessons she learned from her time with her adoptive parents and the MC to continue to build herself up.
Since that time, Frankie has finished her transition and has worked to become a lawyer. Although she is a competent lawyer, she is still new and will butt heads on ideological grounds and make mistakes. She still distrusts authority figures, but has learned from her adoptive parents how to navigate them with more guile and professionalism and isn't outright antagonistic.
Moving forward, she is looking to continue her work as a lawyer defending the good people being harassed by law enforcement. She still likes to commit petty crime to get ahead and take from the 'haves', but is developing to larger crimes over time. She is working toward owning a bike of her own and would like to join or start an MC. She also still likes to dabble with electronics and would like to open a hobby electronics store.
