* Day 1

## General Background

Viviana Gutierrez was born and raised in D.F Mexico. She was always a carefree student who would work during school hours. Her grades were not too bad, as she was able to apply to her local community college. She finished her first year and realized that school was just not for her and that she needed to make more money if she ever wanted to get out of her house. She ended up dropping out of college without her parents knowing and started running around with a crew who would rob banks and jewelry stores just to make ends meet. She moved to Los Santos after being caught for a bank robbery that went wrong. This works out in Viviana's favor as she wanted to move out of her house anyways. She was sent to live with her grandpa from her dad’s side who lives in Los Santos. Her grandpa is a strong disciplined and law abiding citizen who does not agree with her decisions of illegal activities but nonetheless has lots of love for her and tries to help her out. Coming to Los Santos she wanted to try a new approach to making money and attempted to do legal work to make her grandpa happy. She worked in several work establishments such as food restaurants, car dealerships, and mechanical work. But the money was just not enough and she missed the adrenaline high of doing something illegal. So she figured out her grandpa’s work schedule and would go rob banks and jewelry stores when he was busy with work or late at night when he was asleep. She continues to work her legal jobs during the day to keep up the ruse of changing her life around for her grandpa. It only a matter of time until her grandpa finds out but for now she is playing it by ear.

Greyson Copwagon

## Overview

**Gintoki Miyazaki**, or Greyson, is an 18-year-old police detective from Tokyo, Japan who moved to Los Santos. Despite studying American culture through shows and media, he struggles to fit in due to his Japanese background and youth. He is determined to succeed and prove himself as a capable and effective detective while still maintaining pride in his Japanese heritage.

## General Background

**Gintoki Miyazaki**, or Greyson as he prefers to be called, grew up in Tokyo, Japan with his father, a former police officer who now runs a gun armory. His mother passed away when he was young after battling cancer, leaving Greyson and his father to navigate their grief and loss together.

Despite his father's background in law enforcement, Greyson was drawn to a different side of police work. He was fascinated by the idea of being a detective, of solving puzzles and cracking cases. He spent countless hours reading detective novels and watching police procedurals, dreaming of one day putting his skills to the test in the real world.

When Greyson turned 18, he decided to take a leap of faith and move to Los Santos, a city that he had long admired from afar. He was determined to become a police detective, just like the ones he had idolized in his favorite books and shows.

However, Greyson quickly discovered that his background and upbringing in Japan had left him ill-prepared for the complexities of American culture. He struggled to understand the nuances of language and social interaction, and he often found himself getting taken advantage of by people who saw his youth and naivety as an opportunity to exploit him.

Despite these challenges, Greyson remained determined to succeed. He threw himself into his work as a police detective, using his intelligence and instincts to solve cases and track down criminals. He continued to immerse himself in American culture, watching shows like Friends and The Boondocks and listening to rap and hip-hop music in an effort to better understand the people he was sworn to protect.

Although he still struggled at times to fit in, Greyson was proud of his Japanese heritage and the unique perspective it gave him. He refused to let his youth or his fascination with American culture hold him back from achieving his dreams, and he was determined to prove himself as a capable and effective police detective, even as he continued to learn and grow along the way.
