## Backstory

Elizabeth Danielle Hale was born in a small town in California to Patricia and Mark Hale at 7:28 Am on April 4th 1998. Her mother was a prominent lawyer and her father a captain in the police force both working in San Francisco. Elizabeth grew up being cared for by a live-in babysitter, Molly. Life was great for the family and being an only child she was, of course, spoiled.

Mother's day, 2011 a day forever engraved in the dark recesses of her mind, changed everything.  a murder shook the Hale family apart, leaving the family torn apart and no longer able to stay in the family home. A convicted killer's family took it upon themselves to get revenge on the lawyer that had put away the youngest son.

Elizabeth and her father had been out shopping for the perfect mother's day gift. Upon arriving home, Elizabeth ran into the house full of excitement only to find herself sliding as soon as she hit the living room. Her mother lay in a pool of blood, barely recognizable. All Elizabeth could do was scream and stare in shock. The remainder of the next few months were a blur of a funeral, cops and constant security guards.

After a few years of therapy and a move to London for their safety, Elizabeth finally was able to start living life again. The pain was still there in her heart and etched tightly in her father's face. She made her decision at that time to drop her birth name and go by just Dani. Her sole focus then turned to becoming a cop like her father. She wanted to work towards helping bring people to justice and keep other families safe from what she had gone through.

At the age of 23 she got a name change and became known as just Dani. She joined the London police department as a cadet straight out of training. She spent a week learning the basics of the department. After a long shift of training, Dani made it to the apartment she shared with her Father to find a note addressed to her father taped to the door. With trembling hands she plucked the note from the door, paling as she read the words. "Found you". She quickly let herself into the apartment, checking on her father. Relief flooded her as she found him sleeping peacefully in his recliner. Deciding to let him sleep she called the police and requested a unit to the apartment.

After filling them in with the details and showing them the notes they tried to convince her that she was perfectly safe and the note was just a prank. Despite her pleas and insistence they blew her off and told her to not call back unless there was really an emergency. Tossing out that it was unbecoming of a cadet in their police force to be acting like a scared child.

Frustrated, she filled her father in on everything and they both agreed to be careful and begin making preparations to at least move from that apartment. Two days later Dani came home to yet another unforgettable scene. Opening the door she saw her father, much as her mother had been all those years ago. A sob escaped her lips as she dialed the phone to call for help. Sharp pain shot down her skull as she was struck from behind and sent flying forward. Her training kicked in just enough to get her on her back. Face to face with her parents' killer she watched as the bloody knife came towards her. She tried deflecting the blow, ignoring the pain as it sliced into her face several times. The knife plunged into her chest at the same time her service pistol went off. She passed out from the pain as her attacker stumbled off of her, hand clutching his chest. He was found dead when help finally arrived.

Dani awoke in the hospital, discovering it had been a full week since the murder and her attack had happened. She learned the case had been closed and that they told her it was over. They offered no apologies or condolences. They preferred to just ignore the situation as it had been settled in their minds. Bile rose up as she thought about how the police had failed her. She quit the same day and began planning her next move. Once she was cleared from the hospital, she put her plan into action. She was done with the police and for the most part the law in general. She decided that the only person that could keep her safe was herself. She made her way to Los Santos, determined to just live her life in whatever way it came. She kept to herself for the first few months she was there as she tried getting her bearings and worked on putting the past behind her. She refused to let herself fall into the same depression that she had been in knowing it would result in her own demise. She is still unsure if anyone could come after her, the thought always being there that she might forever live her life in danger.

She learned of one way to earn money from a stranger that had asked her if she was interested in the crime life or if she wanted to remain legal. After that conversation she found herself alone again. The assumption she had of always being alone changed on the night she met a different guy who asked the same question. She had no idea of knowing that her life was going to drastically change upon answering yes to that question…

Dani spent the next bit of her time doing crime with the guy, earning her first arrest after a convenience store robbery. She eventually joined her first gang, UK. She learned more crimes, began her venture into drug selling, found her first boyfriend and stayed with the gang until things got to the point the pair left. Eventually the pair joined with Violent Kind. Her time in VK was spent between several gang wars, fights, and plenty of arrests. During this time her criminal record grew and she earned her first violent felony for shooting a cop after they interfered with one of the gang fights. She earned her next shortly after when the cops breached the liquor store. Her anger and frustration at the more aggressive breaching from the police force she had been getting on robberies lately all lead up to her laying in wait behind a door with a machete. She became friends and business partners with SAL DOG, and spent her time between the crime and fights, hanging out with him working on the "business". Crime, gun fights, and arrests continued until VK began to split. Dani, along with Phet and a few others broke off and 424 was born.

Dani spent her time in 424, continuing her life of crime and fighting. During this time, her fiancé spent more and more time locked inside the house alone or talking to other people. She spent that extra free time hanging out with friends. She eventually had enough of being alone and her feelings in the relationship faded. She broke the engagement. During this time, several gang members seemingly went on vacations, or spent time in other places. She spent her alone time reflecting on her life and realized it was a path that she no longer was interested in following. She ended up leaving 424 and started her new life without a gang.

Two weeks passed, the arrests from crimes dwindling to be not as often. She spent more time with her friends. And her relationship with SAL started to grow. They went on there first date. They became official, both having realized the person they were looking for, or needed, had been by there side for a while. Drama hit the new couple with 424 getting involved with things that should of been dealt with privately between two people. The new couple took the experiences they had and kept going, the relationship growing stronger because of it.

Dani's last arrest is one she would remember and would be among her favorite, worth it arrests and she refers to it as The Giggling Giraffes shenanigans. 14 days after the arrest she began the long process of getting an expungement. She began spending more time working, fishing and just generally having fun with life. She began working at Blaze It, helping a friend get it running. As the time went by she spent several hours a week working at Blaze it and eventually talk of ownership started pointing towards Dani getting it if she could get her expungement.

On June 20th, 2023, Dani's expungement was signed. Within a few days she was now the proud owner of Blaze It. She spends her days working at her various jobs, and most importantly, spending time with SAL.
