Lance is hot-headed, quick to act, and slightly obsessive at times. This is evident in his infatuation with BSAA member Chris Redfield. He's also somewhat easy to appeal to. Gifts and quality time are quick ways to get closer to him. Though, he's very abrasive at first.

## Character Background

**Umbrella corp. Lance**

Lance grew up rich, parents in good jobs. When he was born, his mother was the only one who took time off to care for him. And as he got older, both of his parents did less and less until eventually he was left in their luxury condo alone as they worked, once he was old enough to care for himself. This led to Lance developing very poor social skills. By the time he was in high school, he was very isolated and avoided. His temper was also really bad, so anyone trying to get to know him would get put off by his additude. His parents landed him a very cushy, well paying office job. But Lance couldn't stand it, so he quit. He got a job at Umbrella, letting his job distance himself his parents.

**Post-Umbrella Lance**

Years after the colapse of uUbrella, Lance was free-roaming the country. At some point, he was contacted by other ex-employees, reaching out for help. Lance decided to go, wanting to help the people he used to work with. People he assumed were friends. But it ended in a trap. He walked into the building, immedieatel got knocked out, and got expirimented on. Stuck in a lab getting electricity pushed into the plasma of his blood. After being unconcciousf or a week, Lance woke up feeling drained, and in a lot of pain. After basically ripping out the machinery, Lance blacked out. Waking up outside the facility with blood on his hands. He decided to just move on from it ba ebst he could,and tried to make the most oufthe ability forced ont im.

## Family and Friends

**Umbrella corp. Lance**

Lance grew up in a very wealthy family as an only child. Both of his parents had very good jobs. They were often distant or blatantly avoided him.

While Lance worked at Umbrella, he made good friends with Anna-Marie Rosette, who he talked to often when she took her rare breaks. She's also the one who supplied him with his flash drive.

**Post-Umbrella Lance**

Lance doesn't bother to contact his parents. He hadn't for a while. His blood family isn't important.

Lance eventually made friends with Chris after the fall of umbrella, and he swings by the BSAA hq every so often to say hi to him, Anna, and Jackson Drumm if he's there.
