Rupz Lopez can be seen wearing a sports headband exposing his curly hair or wearing a black beanie. On a casual day, he is usually seen wearing silver rectangular sunglasses, a black ninja mask and anything related to streetwear along with his precious katana. Rupz is a laid-back person who loves to help people out. He has a friendly and positive attitude towards others. He generally acts like a complete goofball but also uses this farce as a way to obtain information, make connections and even manipulate his enemies to perceive him as an average person. However, due to his traumatic past and exposure in violence, when triggered, he is known to shift moods from being a complete idiot to someone who is serious, or even to someone with a twisted personality.

## Background Story

When Rupz entered university, he took up a computer programming course while still working side-jobs to help his parents pay the debt they were in. When he graduated, both his parents resigned from their jobs because they wanted to work smaller jobs since Rupz would finally be able to help them out. The pressure came to him as it was his turn to provide for them. He tried applying in various tech companies but was rejected due to not having much connections to the rich. He hated this work culture and pushed his luck to find work out of town, flying all the way to Los Santos - leading him to risk all his savings. He promised his parents that he would get them out of the financial struggle that they have been dealing for their lives.
While Rupz was able to land a job with a small computer firm, this sense of security didn't last because in the next three days, the company was breached by unknown hackers which left the company bankrupt. Rupz could never tell his parents what happened as it would only break them. This left him no choice but to start finding other means to make money regardless if it were legal or not. He found his own connections of making money through chopping cars and selling fish to the black market.
After a few months lost in Los Santos, Rupz worked in a small sushi business owned by Yami Kitsune, a crime business man to which Rupz refers to as 'sensei'. At the time, Rupz was engaging in small crimes with his own group of friends. Eventually he and his friends were approached and offered by Yami to join the family as an associate. This was the start of how Rupz started to properly learn about crime, underground businesses and the different ways to do business through crime. This was also where Rupz started to learn about choices and consequences. Rupz killed one of his friends whom he saw as one of his first mentors, and possibly a father figure, because he leaked too much information which was going to jeopardize the family. By doing this act, it traumatized him since it was his first time to kill someone who had some meaning to him. This became the cause of Rupz' sudden mood changes and a twisted personality when he gets too overwhelmed.
