## History

Not much was known about Effie's life before she arrived in Los Santos. However, she occasionally mentioned her cousins' involvement with the Yakuza in other cities, hinting at her potential family in other places, although she never substantiated these claims.

## Arrival at Los Santos

Los Santos became Effie's destination when she found herself penniless and in need of a fresh start. With her family's financial downfall and the desire to spare herself from their shame, she left them behind in Las Venturas. Stranded and without any connections, she roamed the streets until she stumbled upon a popular store among the locals. It was there that she engaged in conversation and crossed paths with Rain, an acquaintance she had met during her travels. To her surprise, Rain happened to be an employee at the store known as Taco Farmer and he had a close relationship with the store's owner, Seb.

After some convincing, Seb took pity on Effie's circumstances and decided to welcome her into the Taco Farmer crew, understanding her urgent need for financial stability.

### **Taco Farmer Crew**

Flipping pitas and sizzling ground beef became Effie Del Monde's daily grind. On top of her spatula duties, she also stepped in as a cashier during busy times at the restaurant.

As an active crew member, she interacted with both her co-workers and the local customers who frequented the restaurant. This allowed her to delve into the lore of the place and get to know the people around her. While her personality could be described as occasionally loud and openly condescending toward customers, this was her unconventional approach to building relationships with them.

## Relationships

### Rain Jaime

Effie's co-worker at Taco Farmer and her friend whom she always bother.

### **Seb Cruz**

Initially, Effie perceived him as a grumpy person, likely due to his authoritative demeanor and the way he spoke to her as her boss. Despite their initial dynamic, they often found themselves working together inside the shop and engaging in casual conversations. As time passed, a close friendship developed between them. Seb gradually opened up to Effie, sharing the challenges he faced within his family, specifically his impending divorce from his wife. Despite knowing the inappropriate nature of her feelings, Effie couldn't help but admit her affection towards him. Their relationship blossomed, and they formed a deep bond.

Unfortunately, their connection was abruptly disrupted when Effie received news that she had to return to Las Venturas to take care of her family. Eventually, they drifted apart, especially when Seb's wife returned, and Effie made the decision to stay in Las Venturas.

### **Berting Marcelo**

Effie found it puzzling that she and Berting had become so close. In her eyes, he was simply someone she could rely on. However, Berting saw things differently and admitted that he had feelings for her. Due to Berting's reputation as a womanizer, Effie was skeptical of his words and felt concerned about his confession. When he revealed that he was still in the process of getting a divorce from his wife, Effie realized that she did not want to be involved in any of that. Consequently, she decided to reject Berting completely.
