Daisy Maldonia

Daisy Maldonia is a character portrayed by Payy.

Daisy was born in Charlotte, North Carolina. Her parents are Lisa Maldonia and Daniel Maldonia, her mother works as a school teacher and her father has his own business selling biker vests. Although she had her parents, her favorite person in the whole world was her grandmother. Throughout her childhood she was always very loved by her parents but they struggled to keep up with her feisty personality, she didn’t find enjoyment in playing with dolls and pink toys like other little girls. Instead she would always be found breaking them and roughhousing with the boys from her school.

Daisy was always getting phone calls home and detention after school for being too rough with the other kids. No matter how much she got scolded by her parents nothing ever worked. The only person that she felt truly understood her was her grandmother. Just as her parents were about to give up on trying to correct her behavior and send her away, her grandma suggested putting her into kickboxing. It was then that Daisy really began to grow into her true self and build on her strong, outgoing and protective personality.

## Life Before Diamond City

By the time Daisy turned twenty she found herself out of the slow country life of North Carolina, and in the fast paced concrete jungle of Liberty City. At this point in her life Daisy had a steady job as a kickboxing trainer and self defense teacher. She even had an apartment to herself, but living in Liberty City wasn’t cheap.

That’s when Daisy decided that she was going to take her fighting to another level. She began searching the dark buzzing streets of the city, looking for people involved in various illegal activities who needed private protection. It wasn’t soon after that she met a man named Alfonzo Garbanzo who needed her help, unlike her other clients he wanted her to work side by side with him. He told her that he’s been running from a notoriously dangerous group of Loan Sharks who killed his brother and are now after him.

She agreed to help him, and ever since then they’ve continued to have each other’s backs. Although they’ve been able to keep themselves low and hidden for a few years, they began to notice that the Loan Sharks were starting to catch up with them. That’s when Daisy and Alfonzo decided that they no longer wanted to hide and were going to leave Liberty City and escape the danger.

## Moving to Diamond City

Upon moving to Diamond City Alfonzo and Daisy were excited for a new start, especially because it meant a clean slate for the both of them. Although they are still very close friends, they decided it would be best for them to part ways for the time being. The possibilities were endless. Within the first week Daisy was starting to get on her feet, she had a job as a fueler and was even able to afford a car.

She also quickly met Jimmy and Kristy, who not even moments into her arrival in Diamond City whisked her away on a trip. Daisy often found herself in situations where a seatbelt was important when riding along with Jimmy and Kristy. Daisy’s good friend Luna had also moved to the city, the two had known each other from previous shenanigans outside the city. With Luna moved back into the city, they were often going on adventures and exploring the mischievous they could get up to. One day, Starla Munroe called while Daisy and Luna were hanging out.

Starla informed them that she was escaping from her family and needed a place of refuge. Daisy excitedly welcomed her, and they quickly took her on their adventures. The trio became closer with Kristy and Jimmy, hanging out daily getting into all sorts of trouble. It was a little bit later that Daisy was invited to be a part of the Ricardo Family Mafia. Daisy happily accepted as she enjoyed everyone in RFM and felt very protective of each individual. Her feisty personality often made for interesting events and random fight club matches.
