## **Description**

Lori Layne (originally known as *Lori Scarpelli*), is a twenty-year-old woman hailing from the sunny state of Florida. Raised primarily by her father, she shares an unbreakable bond with him, despite the challenging circumstances they've faced. Her father's involvement in a ski construction company led him into a life of crime, which he desperately tried to shield Lori from. To protect her identity and keep her away from the dangerous ramifications of his actions, Lori's last name was changed to Layne, her mother's maiden name.

Lori possesses a petite yet resilient figure, with striking hazel eyes that reveal both vulnerability and determination. Her lustrous chestnut hair cascades down to her shoulders, framing a youthful face that carries the weight of her experiences.

Throughout her life, Lori has grappled with a deep-seated phobia of hospitals, stemming from the traumatic loss of her mother to breast cancer when she was just a five-year-old girl. This fear, coupled with her outsider status as a result of bullying during her school years, molded her into a misfit. However, these challenges only fueled her determination to rise above her circumstances.

Lori's upbringing primarily revolved around the construction site where her father worked, exposing her to the world of hard work and dedication. From a young age, she immersed herself in this environment, forging connections with those working alongside her. Through these experiences, Lori developed a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn and grow.

After completing two years of college, Lori pursued a nursing degree, a path her father wanted for her. However, Lori found herself haunted by memories of her mother's passing, unresolved trauma and aversion to hospitals led her to drop out and change her life trajectory. She relocated to San Andreas, Lori stumbled upon Wayne, a member of the Lost MC, during a cleaning job. Intrigued by Wayne's patch, she embarked on a quest to uncover the truth behind the motorcycle club's activities.

Driven by curiosity and a thirst for knowledge, Lori found herself drawn into the world of the Lost MC. It all began as a hang-around, but her dedication and eagerness to embrace the club's lifestyle quickly propelled her forward. However, her journey to becoming a Prospect was not without its challenges.

On the day Lori became a prospect for the motorcycle club, she crossed paths with Jackson, a rugged and charming member of the club. Little did they know, this would be a turning point in their lives. As the day unfolded, Lori and Jackson found themselves confessing their hidden feelings towards one another. The connection between them was undeniable, and their hearts raced with excitement. However, fate had a cruel twist in store for them. Just hours after their heartfelt confession, the club announced a new rule forbidding any fraternization. Lori was devastated, feeling torn between her loyalty to the club and her budding love for Jackson. In the midst of her turmoil, Jackson proposed a daring solution—she could give up her prospects' status and become his "old lady." It was an offer that held the promise of love and a life together, but ultimately, Lori made the difficult choice to prioritize her commitment to the club over her personal desires.

After Lori received her patch, signifying her official membership in the motorcycle club, their relationship took a different turn. The club's rules underwent a significant revision, shifting from a blanket ban on fraternization to a prohibition on romantic involvement between patched members and prospects. This change in policy brought relief and newfound hope for Lori and Jackson. Now that Lori had earned her place within the club, they could openly pursue their relationship without fear of breaking any rules.

Lori's transformation within the Lost MC was not only marked by her progression to her rankings, but also by the profound changes in her personality. Once characterized by her sweetness, innocence, and some degree of insecurity, Lori emerged as a bolder individual, displaying newfound assertiveness and outspokenness. The trials she faced and the choices she made shaped her into a stronger and more resilient version of herself, further solidifying her place within the club.

Though she remains devoted to the club and its members, Lori often feels unheard and unappreciated within their ranks. She takes it personally, her sensitivity affecting not only her self-perception but also her interactions with others. Lori possesses her own unique thoughts, opinions, and a strong-willed nature, which occasionally clashes with the collective mindset of the club.

While Lori doesn't shy away from criminal activities, her true passion lies in entrepreneurship. She aspires to run a successful strip club that caters to the needs of the motorcycle club, preferring the organized environment it entails over chaotic situations. Despite her devotion to the club, Lori holds a deep affection for her boyfriend, Jackson, though she often prioritizes her commitment to the club over their relationship due to the sense of identity it provides.

Currently, Lori doesn't hold a conventional job. Instead, she serves as Wayne's second right-hand within the club, primarily focusing on the organization's drug operations. She manages to support herself financially, but she primarily uses her resources to contribute to the club's endeavors, fully embracing the loyalty and dedication that being a member entails.

Overall, Lori Layne is a complex individual shaped by her tumultuous past and the desire to forge her own path. Her experiences have instilled in her a resilient spirit, unwavering determination, and a unique perspective.
