## History

Irene grew up in the countryside of Los Santos, as her family never had much money. Irene's father, Ian Falkenberry, gave up his rights for Irene when she was only 13 years old, causing her mother to date a man named Allan, who can be seen in RACER GIRL. Irene also grew up with 2 brothers who are unknown at the moment.

Irene was a popular girl in school, even though she will deny it until the end of time. She had lot of friends growing up, causing her to meet Leah Monroe, and Chrystal Copeland in her sophomore year of high school. Leah was always a goth girl, from the time that Irene met her until she was in her late 20s, causing Irene to be influenced by her and start wearing gothic makeup and clothing as well when she was 17 years old.

When she was 21 she discovered Dawson while she was reluctantly working as a part-time mechanic, influencing her to want to give racing a try. And after a little bit, she started developing a serious crush on Dawson, watching him on TV and wishing she was there. Until at some point she made those dreams come true, when one day she saved up enough money to go to some of Dawson's races, which later lead her down to her own path of racing.

Irene retired from racing after 3 1/2 years due to her hatred for the people running the companies that she had previously raced for, and was disgusted by their selfish nature. After a while of hopping from sponsor to sponsor she eventually gave up and retired, to settle down with her new found wealth. But shortly after her retirement she met the love of her life, Dawson Miller.

## Personality

Irene is a bubbly and confident girl, she is also very self-assured and doesn't let anyone walk all over her or especially her friends. She is very extroverted and loves meeting new people. She is also very easily motivated and has little to no fear of anything. These personality traits were not very clear in RACER GIRL due to different things she was dealing with, such as Jonas.

## Love Life History

When Irene was living with her mom, she was in a dysfunctional relationship with a guy named Jonas. At first, Jonas met Irene in their senior year of high school, he was on the football team. Irene would go to his games and cheer for him specifically, due to her thinking he was the cat's meow. One day Irene lost patience and walked up to Jonas to talk to him when he had finished a game. She confidently asked him out to a date, and Jonas accepted, but for the wrong reasons. Jonas was a womanizer and wasn't very romantic, he liked Irene for her body, and for her gothic style. Until eventually after 3 years, Irene realized Jonas wasn't a good guy, and dumped him.

Right before Irene got big into the racing game, she was also in a relationship with her now best friend Chrystal Copeland due to Chrystal's long-time lust for Irene. Their relationship came to an end after 2 years when Irene broke things off due to a fall in interest, and wanting to just be best friends with Chrystal like they once were.
