## ***Background***

Kale Quinoa-Diesel grew up in a loving family in the fast-paced city of Chicago. Kale was raised with her twin sister Karma by a hitman named Aspen Quinoa, and a mother named Poppy. Poppy and Aspen were the best parents, always teaching them right from wrong, given their fathers job. Kale and Karma were both homeschooled by their mom, while their dad "traveled for business". Their parents were always transparent with Kale and Karma about life and the trouble that can come of Aspens job.

One sunny morning when Kale and Karma were 8, they were on their way to the grocery store with their mom when they were suddenly run off the road by a black van. Kale hit her head on the dashboard and blacked out. It felt like Kale was only out for a moment, but when she came to her mother was gone. The sun was setting, and her sister was crying out in the backseat that someone had taken their mom. She stated they dragged her from the car threatening Kale and Karma if she didn't go with them. Their father showed up minutes later, gun in hand. Kale begged and pleaded to go after them. Their father ignoring her and quickly taking them from the scene as he made phone call after phone call trying to find out what was going on.

Kales father didn’t bother putting in a police report. Not many people knew who Poppy was outside their little family. Kale and Karma started learning how to use a gun and how to fight soon after their mothers’ disappearance, their father fearing they would one day be taken too. Aspen had been threatened previously by an unknown group after Kale and Karma were born. He had made many enemies throughout the years, occasionally receiving coded threats.

After 3 years of traveling and gathering information trying to find her, Aspen received a coded letter stating Poppy was seen in a city called Los Santos. After crying, begging him not to leave he promised Kale he would be back. Kale and her sister would be taken to a Dutch family, the Robinsons to stay with until Aspen returned. Kale never saw her father again. No letters, no phone calls, nothing.

Kale and Karma were 12 when they were legally adopted by the Dutch couple, a year after Aspen disappeared. The Robinsons were lawyers for some of the most dangerous people in the world, gangs, hitmen, and murderers. They were raised alongside two brothers, Harry, and Blake. They took them in shortly after their father disappeared. Blake and Harry treated them like siblings immediately. Kale had a bit of trouble settling down, always looking over her shoulder, always secretly searching for her missing parents. The brothers were the best thing to happen to Kale, a great distraction from how scared she was.

Kale and Karma decided at 17 they wanted to attend college after being homeschooled. Kale went away to a school in London, studying creative writing and journalism. Karma, always perfect chose to follow the Robinsons footsteps and study law.

Kale graduated 3 years earlier than Karma, getting a degree in journalism. Karma, after graduating chose to go off on her own and live in their old home in Chicago. Kale decided she and her brothers would travel together and cause chaos wherever they went. Karma, who made connections throughout the years of school, occasionally got them out of trouble with a quick phone call.

When Kale was 25 her brothers decided they wanted to settle down in the same town her father went missing, getting wind of a gang they were wanting to join. After arguing back and forth for months on whether it was a good idea or not, the brothers reluctantly moved. Kale followed shortly after. The brothers joined a gang called the SeaDogs shortly after moving to LS. They coaxed Kale to follow with promises of chaos and fun. When she arrived, she was greeted by a group wearing blue camo and a man with the thickest south African accent she’d ever heard. He stated his name was Kaptain Dori, OG of the SeaDogs. Kale immediately fell in love with the idea of being in a gang and joining a new family. She slowly let go of the trauma of losing her family.

Tragically a few months after living in LS, her brothers disappeared in a boating accident. Kale was torn, her brothers were the last family she had left, not hearing from Karma since moving to LS.  She was then adopted by Tommy Diesel and Naz Ring-Diesel shortly after their marriage in 2023.
