## General Information and Backstory

Alexis Roux can usually be found running either alone or with her boyfriend; focusing solely on trying to just make it through another day of life.

Alexis grew up with little money due to her parents spending all of their money they came across on drugs. She grew up in a rough, poor neighborhood somewhere on the outskirts of Liberty City. She decided as she entered into high school that she would do the one thing her parents constantly told her she would never do. Graduate. Along with going to school, she spent her off time doing work around her neighborhood to attempt to keep herself and her younger sister fed and clothed. Near the end of her 9th grade year, she returned home from her various work to find both of her parents seemingly lifeless on the floor from what was clearly an overdose. Panic filled her as she made her way to a neighbors house to use their phone. Her mother did not survive. Life got harder after that. The loss of his wife and drug partner turned her father into an angry and abusive man. He spent the majority of his time high and taking his anger out on whoever was closest. Alexis did everything in her power to ensure her sister was spared the majority of the abuse. She continued her struggle, taking on even more responsibility so that her sister didn't have to go without anything. She took on a full time job during the summer. Putting what little money she could spare into savings for just in case. Mid way through her junior year, both tragedy and luck struck as she once again came home to her father overdosed on the floor. Everything that had happened gave her pause on getting help as fast as she could. By the time help came it was to late. Her only regret over the whole affair was losing her sister to the state. Being underaged herself they attempted to take her as well. But she was able to run and get away. Failing to help her sister the regret and anger burned in her. She returned to her home after a while only to discover her savings had been stolen. Distraught, she roamed the streets. Her dream of graduating was no longer important. Only making it to the next day mattered. The next few years or so was spent in and out of numerous abusive and toxic relationships filled with drugs and alcohol. The day that finally broke her out of thinking this was the life she deserved was the day she woke up in a hospital with nothing but the sound of beeping machines. From everything she could gather by listening to the nurses, she had been found bruised, bleeding and unresponsive in a ditch. On top of the beating it seemed she had overdosed herself. As soon as she was able to, she snuck out of the hospital and traveled across the country. Her trip took over a year. She stayed at a cheap hotel, earning the money to pay for it on the streets any way she could. Disliking the life and wanting to put more distance from her path, she once again began to travel until she finally made her way to Los Santos.
