## Description

April is a single child from the small town of Newton, Iowa. She came to Clear County after escaping a past, where her life was on the line.

## Background Info

April was born on March 23, 1996 to her lower middle class parents. They worked to put her through the best education growing up, and got her into college. There, she blossomed both socially, as she became a part of a sorority, and artistically in her classes. While she was a gifted artist in her own right, she had a knack of being able to recreate known works of art down to make it look like the original. Professors that have seen original works in museums, would comment how eerily exact her paintings were close to the originals.

April moved to Squad City to start her art career, but started a small online magazine from her apartment to make some money, while she worked on getting noticed as an artist. The magazine's popularity skyrocketed, and her focus became on the media of the city. Then the power of the Yakuza took over, and between trying to stronghold her business and shooting her as a retaliation hit for her then boyfriend, she fled the shut down the business and fled the city.
