## Backstory

Tom Porter grew up in Oslo, Norway where he had to learn his own ways of survival, he didn't grow up with parents and only knew about his grandpa that lived up north. He had to survive by stealing from shops and take food from outside shops when the owner didn't look. He slowly understood that the better way to survive would be to work for the people he stole from and earn his way to a better means of living.

A guy from Great Britian that worked along side him asked Tom one day if he wanted to work with him on their own front back in London, seeing Tom didn't have much to loose he decided to come with. They were working in a resturant where they were selling high proof alcohol on the side. As things started to get heated in that front they decided to take a "vacation" to Los Santos. They saw the oppertunity in Los Santos and decided that this would be the new place for their operations.

Bank jobs is a craft that Tom had mastered just after a couple of jobs with his family, the criminals in Los Santos just thought about the payday meanwhile Tom and his crime family thought about everything else. They took care of the hostages, they treated the job as professionals and made sure they had the upper hand with the police. Tom and his crime family slowly became a common name between criminals in Los Santos as being "master bank robbers". For Tom, doing bank jobs was just more than just getting money. It was about sending a message. Tom would often in the first stages take off his mask to make sure that the police knows that Tom doesn't care about if they knew who he was or not, it was about showing that he could do it in his normals clothes and still get away.

### **Taken Too Early**
