Courtney Willson

*"When I was in the army, I saw bad things. Dead children, maimed corpses, dead friends. Back in basic I watched as Jenkins blew his arm off with a grenade. None of that stuck with me. So I’ll be damned if this sticks."*

## **Biography**

Courtney "Whiskey" Willson (born May 25th, 1988 in San Paro) is an active CSA Enforcer in San Paro. She is the Fiancée of Sara McConnor and close friends with Sadira Nightfall, Ray and the Myles Family.

### Early Life

Whiskey was raised by her parents Michael and Susan in a quiet neighbourhood in the hills south of the city centre. Her parents tried their best to give her a good start to life and deeply cared for her. in 2000, Michael, working as a defence attorney, was hired by small time gang leader Vincent Newman to defend him in court, giving himself out as an innocent businessman wrongfully accused of possession with intent to distribute. After Michael learned the truth about Vincent, he tried to covertly sabotage the case, ultimately being spotted, but not before the damage was done. Vincent was sentenced to only 2 years in jail.

A week after the trial Michael received a threatening phone call from a hitman, claiming that his and his wife's days were numbered, threatening that he'd kill their daughter too if they attempt to escape. On August 12th 2000, Whiskey's parents were killed in an arsonist attack on their home, forcing her to live with her borderline abusive uncle. During this time Whiskey was urged by her best friend, Ray, to learn some form of martial arts to be able to defend herself for when her uncle inevitably tries to hurt her.

### Adult Life

In December of 2005 Whiskey's uncle was going through a messy divorce, losing almost all he owned. He began drinking heavily to the point that he was almost always drunk. In this state, he attempted to molest Whiskey twice, both times knocked to the floor. Shortly after new years eve, her uncle attempted one last time, this time trying to convince her at first before drawing a gun on her to force her. After a short fight, Whiskey had shot her uncle by accident.

Whiskey spent the next 7 months being juggled between court hearings, custody and interrogation until the death was ruled an accident and Whiskey was cleared of all charges. Whiskey decided to drop out of high school instead of redoing her last year and joined the army, training as a combat pilot for the 101st Airborne Division. She was deployed to Afghanistan as part of operation "Enduring Freedom" along with most of her unit. It was at this time she gained her nickname and met her first love, Josh Fairdale, the gunner designated to her helicopter.

In 2012, Whiskey's helicopter was shot down during an especially dangerous mission, killing Josh and stranding her several miles behind enemy lines. She was found unconscious and dehydrated by a local patrol unit 2 days later and immediately placed in intensive care, barely saving her life. After this ordeal, Whiskey received a medical discharge and returned to her hometown without a plan. She was devastated by her loss but tried her best to overcome it. She tried to reconnect with old friends, but most had grown away from her, apart from Ray, who tried his best to help her cope with her loss. Eventually Whiskey gained an interest in the CSA movement and ultimately signed on with the Praetorians.

In 2013, Ray, who had since joined the CSA after being laid off from the SPPD, introduces Whiskey to Kyle Myles, with whom she would quickly build a strong friendship, along with spending time with his family, acting in sorts as a replacement for lack of her own.

A year later, Whiskey was leading a team of Praetorians tracking a Blood Rose shakedown operation, setting up an ambush at one of the known targets. Whiskey's planned ambush was ruined by her team not waiting for her signal, giving the Roses time to scramble for cover. After the fight was over, only Whiskey and a sole Blood Rose remained. This Blood Rose turned out to be FBI Special Agent Sara McConnor, working undercover with the Roses. After Sara was freed, Sara wished to make it up to her would-be captor by inviting her out to a drink, which would eventually lead to them to start a relationship.

Later in the year Whiskey "met" notorious hacked D4X, who would eventually trade intel on criminal activities in exchange for access codes to Praetorian databases. This allowed Whiskey to start pursuing criminal elements independently, making her rarely work with the Praetorians from then on.

In February of 2016, Whiskey receives a tip on who had her parents killed almost 16 years prior. Through the help of D4X, evidence provided by her late father and investigations of her own, Whiskey would find the location of Vincent Newman's base of operations. In a daring and borderline stupid attack on the penthouse, an emotional Whiskey would tear through his surprisingly light defences and confront the man that had ruined her life 16 years ago. Vincent pleaded for his life but Whiskey showed no mercy and brutally maimed and tortured and eventually killed him, but not before finding out who the hitman was. Whiskey has since been suffering from PTSD.

### Personality

Due to the nature of her life, Whiskey lacks any kind of idealism. Her world is coloured in shades of grey as opposed to black and white, to her there is no such thing as a good or bad person. Whether it is just her nature or something she picked up in the Army, Whiskey has a quick wit about her and generally deadpan humour which she presents often, even at inappropriate times. Underneath this hard shell lies a deeply caring woman, swearing to do everything in her power to keep her friends from harm.
