Zero to Sixty RP (Characters/Info)

TITLE: Zero to Sixty

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Within the streets of Los Angeles, there’s a gang of street racers called the Wind Runners that roam the pavement doing as they please, stealing various items from stores or just burning rubber racing other people. Utilizing a auto-repair shop as a cover and a source of income, most people in the gang live a double life, doing their jobs during the day and disappearing to drive at night, but others devote their lives to cars, living their life a quarter mile at a time. The gang has various people, each specializing in their own niche, be it stealing, racing, or something else.  Larger breaks in the law have gotten the attention of the LAPD and they’re eager to close in on the racers. Catching wind of a large shipment of cash to a large bank nearby, the racers mobilize to steal it. Are you going to ride with us?

History: Jeremy grew up in America to middle-class Korean parents. Like most children in America, Jeremy led a mundane life of school, sports, and extracurriculars.

Instead, he double majored in financing and business at the local university after realizing he had a knack with money and handling his model sister’s bank account. During the summer of his sophomore year in college, Jeremy applied as a bank teller intern for World Investments, an international bank that rivaled Switzerland’s. Jeremy was exceptional at his job and rose up the ranks to assistant manager. He was beginning to enjoy his life working in a bank, when it was suddenly robbed by the notorious Wind Runners and he was kidnapped as a hostage.

History: Karina grew up in a middle class family in the suburbs of Texas. Her father was a retired U.S. marine and her mother was a chemist at a biotech company. Due to her father’s absence at home, Karina developed an unhealthy interest for daredevil activities such as: playing pranks on the neighbors, stealing small things, and calling 911 in false alarm. Her mother tried to veer her away from these tendencies by introducing her daughter to the world of chemistry, but Karina was only interested in the applications of chemistry, especially with highly volatile substances and explosives. When her father returned home, he had no knowledge of her devilish acts and taught her the basics in explosives, guns, and knives. He later claimed she needed “self-defense training”. Karina later attended university at UCLA on a scholarship, found the chemistry classes too boring, and dropped out to join the Wind Runners; though her parents are unaware of her dropout in college.
