  1. ➼ Allison Genevieve Berkowitz ➼ Born to an upper class Jewish-American family in Ridgewood, New Jersey with roots in Bohemia and Israel respectively, Allison Berkowitz was a certified silver-spoon baby; being brought up in a neighborhood with an average median income per household of almost $200,000. Her grandfather had met her grandmother in Newark shortly after the second world war, and the two decided to settle and begin the slow uphill climb toward financial security for their soon to be growing family. Part-time work and full-time mothering seemed to take precedent for his wife, whilst Yael Berkowitz focused almost entirely on forging a growing insurance business, taking advantage of a rapidly growing post-war market for the protection of personal property and assets accumulated by the economic boom following World War 2. By the late 60s the family had moved to Ridgewood, a growing town housing some of the state's most successful professionals, the perfect environment for the family to grow it's rapidly expanding network of financiers and entrepreneurs. The following two decades saw their eldest son finishing education at Princeton University, majoring in business & economics as per his father's request, he would take on an executive role within the family business through which he met his future wife and mother of his daughter, Cecilia Smith-Lewis. Married in 1988 with their first born and only daughter Allison brought into the world in 1993, the couple would spare no expenses in giving her what they believed to be the most beneficial of upbringings for a child who showed a good degree of academic talent from a young age. The following twenty years where simple, the usual trials and tribulations of anyone growing from child-like innocence to adolescent curiosity. It wasn't until the time for independence and freedom came along that the couple had realized their daughter had chosen a slightly different path for herself despite still keeping to the family business of finance. Acceptance to study on the west coast of the US at ULSA in Los Santos meant an escape from the familiar but monotonous closed community of her home town, and it was during her first semester in the city that Allison had met her life long friend and peer Josely Martinez, a fashion upstart from a similarly wealthy family in Bogota, Colombia. The two shared passions in fashion and upper-class snobbery that brought them to the point of being inseparable. From the beginning of her degree to her graduation, Allison made sure to mix herself with only the most influential of business people, fashion designers and media moguls to ensure that she could embed herself permanently in the inner workings of Los Santos' business. The first port of call was to show her ability in that department, or at the very least her understanding, and so her time spent at university was split with an internship at Los Santos Network, writing a financial column for the Los Santos Times. This was just a stepping stone for the budding accountant, and it was through this short-lived venture that Allison had met and befriended fashion designer and CEO Anna Rex. Over the course of the following few years post graduation Allison gradually climbed her way to the executive board of the company, playing her part in decision making and management alongside her duties as an accountant and portfolio manager. Enough is never enough work however, and following a brief stint managing the finances for her good friend and now fledgling fashion designer Josely, Allison would find herself headhunted for a position as portfolio and sales manager for the now defunct Citadel Wireless, a subsidiary venture by Aurum Corporation, a well curated business holding a tight monopoly on the local energy market. Lucas Vermeer, an acquaintance and later good friend from university had landed the position of CEO at the upstart internet service provider and later Aurum Corporation itself, and had requested her aid in building the new venture from the ground up. The two set to creating a professional and integral business model that has seen them become somewhat prolific providers of services related to commercial and residential broadband. This position provided her an income far steadier than previous short-term accountancy contracts, and it was this degree of salary-based payment that afforded the luxuries she now takes for granted on a daily basis, living in an apartment that overlooks the west end of Richard's Majestic and a stones throw away from the golf club and resort she frequents regularly for rest and relaxation. Approaching her 30th birthday and her twelfth year in the city in total, Allison now had sat in a position of kingmaker for her disheveled CEO and directing manager Lucas, doing her best to juggle this along with a recently acquired position on the board of Anna Rex, a step up from her previously held position outside of the creative and administrative department. Now when not held up in board meetings at Anna Rex, you'll find her slaving away in her home office to ensure her department at Aurum Corporation is up to date financially and quotes are turned to contracts. Swamped with work with hardly any time for herself, Allison has become sharp and to the point; a stark contrast from the happy-go-lucky party girl of her youth. That's not to say that side of her doesn't rear it's not-so-ugly head from time to time when there's a brief stoppage on the clock. Only time will tell if she has further ambitions for her career and possible future family, though she seems steadily moving toward success in that department thanks to her now long-term healthy relationship with her boyfriend Jordan, fostering a strong working relationship based around one another's schedules and interests. Their relationship has now extended into their respective financial pursuits resulted in the co-ownership of two rental properties from the date they moved in together. With shakeups at Aurum Corporation opening gaps for Allison to secure a better position for herself, it seems all is looking up for her in the coming months.

  2. This thread will showcase the background and development of Hispanic siblings living out of East Los Santos. The main perspective will be that of Isabella Arias with supporting development from her brother Cesar Arias. Backstory Isabella/Bella is the oldest of three siblings at aged 23. Miguel, the middle child, would be aged 22 if he were still alive today. Cesar is the youngest sibling at aged 19. After the youngest of the three siblings was born their Father walked out on the family. The family got by for the first ten or so years until their Mothers undiagnosed diabetes started developing into more serious issues which forced her to quit work. As a result the three siblings felt an immense pressure to provide for themselves and their family at a young age with Bella being only 17 about to start her final two years of high school. Bella managed to get her final two years of high school education put on hold by contacting the school board about her situation. She used these two years to work three part time jobs bringing in all the money she could for the family whilst saving a little on the side. Her brothers on the other hand took to the streets becoming entwined with the gang lifestyle, within a year they were selling drugs and tagging up the neighbourhood to make a name for themselves at ages 16 and 14. Bella was soon back to school to finish her final two years of education late. During this time she didn't really speak to her brothers as much as they used to before the street life took over and made their opinions differ drastically. Despite this she still offered her compassion and guidance where she could but often felt scared to express her opinions in front of the gang. After her late graduation in 2020 she took a job as a family care worker going through a few months training to earn her qualifications. This was a job she felt close to home as it was revolved around providing support to families suffering through illness, poverty and such, much like her own family had when she was growing up. Life was fairly smooth from this point on, Isabella's wage was enough to support herself and her mother in the family apartment. Her brothers also contributed dirty money to the family that they earnt through the streets. This was still something Isabella didn't agree with and could see how her brothers were shifting into darker versions of themselves over the years. Eventually Isabella's worst nightmare struck true when Miguel was shot in a drive-by shooting on the road in front of the Arias' apartment in early October 2022. This would cause Isabella to put in a resignation at work and spend the next four months processing the grief the entire family were going through. Her brother Cesar dealt with the grief his own way choosing to delve deeper into his life of drugs and booze to numb the pain he was feeling. This leads the family into 2023 present day where the two remaining siblings still don't see eye to eye on a number of subjects. Bella is now trying to settle down and find a new career in the Emergency Services industry whilst Cesar navigates his way through the gang life of East Los Santos.

Hobbies: Surfboarding, car and motorbike repairs, mountain biking, wild camping, and anything outdoors-wise. All the time I was being beaten, I thought, "I'm not going to be fourteen forever, I need to grow up." Rico Evans has had to survive more than most people would ever face in a lifetime. It would be easy to assume that he fell into a hard life. That would be wrong. As Rico tells it, he didn’t fall into violence; violence is where his life began. Rico recalls a time when he was about ten and his Mom had gone on yet another drunken rampage. This time, Rico’s mother held a knife, threatening him after he had found her in bed with another man whilst his father was away for work. “I was screaming at her to kill me. It wasn’t because I wanted to die - I just wanted it to stop. I loved her but I just wanted it all to end. Maybe if she killed me she would be locked away and my brother would be safe from her. Then all the violence and beatings would stop.” Rico’s father, Mathias Evans, was the youngest boy in a family of eight children, who were close in their own way. He was just nineteen when he enlisted in the armed forces, and his military records say he was motivated by a “sense of duty.” Mathias served just four years before being discharged based on medical grounds after shattering his ankle severely. During his time in the armed forces, Mathias travelled to the states and met his future wife Nadia, a Russian Nurse who had moved to America as a young girl with her Father. The two soon got married, with Nadia moving permanently to Norway to work on the family farm that had been passed down through the family whilst Mathias started up his own metalwork shop. Rico likes to joke that he was born “right beside my mother”. The point of this joke is that they didn’t really seem connected like Mother and child right from the start. If his mother hugged him and said she loved him on the day of his birth, it was perhaps the last time she did so. “My mother never in her life said ‘I love you’ to me. I was unexpected and seen as another mouth to feed that they couldn’t afford.” Rico grew up with a younger brother: Dexter who was two years younger, and despite their age difference were inseparable, with Rico practically bringing up his brother by himself due to his mother finding solace in a bottle instead whilst their Father worked. For Rico, his brother was the reason to keep going, often shielding him from the violence at home and doing what he could to try to give Dexter a normal life as much as possible. At age twelve, Rico discovered his brother had been running into difficulty at school with a group of kids who started lashing out at Dexter. Rico declared his personal war on bullies. “You’ve got to stop it before it starts. I’d stare at them knowing they’d eventually have to go, ‘What the fuck are you staring at?’ I’d go, ‘You.’ I’d know they were bullies just by watching them.” Soon Rico found himself in trouble after lashing out at a particular kid who he caught pushing his brother into some lockers, resulting in Rico being kicked out of the school and facing severe punishment from his Mother when he got home. After the beating, he was told he didn’t deserve an education and was to work on the family farm bringing in food, alongside his Father’s metal shop until late into the night to try to bring in some spare money. “You deal with what you’re dealt with in life. People who grow up like I grew up, you don’t realise there is any other option. It’s all if, if, if. It would have been nice to have a more loving family. I envy people - not to the point that I’m depressed- that are brought up with a loving family.” Rico’s father Mathias always sought the comradeship he had when in the armed forces, eventually meeting up with members of the local motorcycle club in their area, becoming a patched member and spending more time at their clubhouse than with his own family. Yet the moments he did spend with his sons, he took them to the clubhouse to meet his patched brothers, sharing stories with them and teaching them in his own words, how to be a man. Rico doted on his father, wanting to be just like him in every way including following him into the biker lifestyle. At age 13, Mathias started taking Rico to events run by the MC, getting him to serve alcohol to members attending and then clean up the mess left by the crew afterwards. Even though it was work, Rico loved being around the members, listening to their stories and thinking he was treated as part of the club. The bikers oozed an aura of freedom and power, and of rich lives that lived outside of society’s rules, which had done nothing to benefit the teenaged Rico. Something about seeing the bikers cruising past him seemed all-powerful as if they could tell death itself to fuck off, like old-time circus performers who could stick their heads into the mouths of lions and pull them out again, smiling, without a trace of fear. For a few years, Rico was not what someone would call happy with life, but he was content at the same time. Hanging out with his father and alternating between working at the bar or the blacksmith his father owned meant that he continued to spend less time at his home. Things appeared to be settled when suddenly his parents decided that in order to try to help Nadia get over her drinking problem, they would relocate to America so she could be in an environment she grew up in. At the age of sixteen Rico was again thrust into uncertainty, and eventually due to circumstances out of his control spent several years away from his family, learning to survive for himself throughout the worst period of his life which included losing his best friend to a stabbing incident that would continue to haunt Rico for years to come. Eventually, after seven long years of darkness, Rico managed to push himself away from the situation and start a fresh life in San Fierro, grieving for his father who he had recently lost whilst he was away. Rico managed to link back up with his brother, starting their own business in construction to get a source of income. During this time Rico met his first wife Hana who gave birth to his daughter Nari, making Rico realise that life was worth changing. Nari was Rico’s everything and he doted on her, but the marriage soon broke down and Rico was left waking up in the middle of the night to find his wife and daughter had vanished. It wouldn’t be until a few months later that Rico discovered both were alive but back in Korea where Hana was from, with divorce papers sent through his mailbox. Only a couple of years later would Rico get Nari back in his life and during that time in order to find a new sense of purpose Rico ended up adopting a young teenager who he found living on the streets fending for herself. In all senses, the teenager reminded Rico of himself, and from that day he swore she’d never find herself suffering again. Fast forward a few years to the current day and Rico has yet again shown that hard work and determination means you can end up pushing past your old trauma and get somewhere in life where you are continuously moving forward. In order to help get past his childhood, Rico got his last name changed in order to help with the healing process. Unfortunately despite the fresh start, Rico's marriage to his childhood sweetheart Xiomara broke down, with them being seperated for quite some time before the divorce went through, hidding it from their friends until it was finalised in order to protect their children. Now Rico is finding his own way in becoming happy again, learning to become the man he used to be. ((Some background story has been left out in order to prevent metagame)) This character thread covers Rico’s time from when he first moved to Los Santos and the highs and lows of attempting to be a normal civilian and working within the Los Santos Fire Department as a Lifeguard Section Chief and TEMS (tactical medics) instructor. Rico is, by all means, a flawed individual with a lot of baggage from his past, but the idea with the thread is also to show the good parts of the city and that civilians can by all means have a somewhat normal life.

  7. Short description: System like /gloves but for a high vis vest. Detailed description: Currently, the only available high vis vest for civilians is the dirty ones that look like you just pulled them out of the trash, and one I can only assume is for government use. Would be nice with a clean version too for civilians to use when they're say, stopping to help at a car crash, when they're out hunting. Brief moments that shouldn't have to take up a slot in your outfit. (Like how my duty belt here is now gone, replaced with the vests below) Undershirt IDs: Dirty green and orange: 59 (var 0 & 1) Orange gov: 181 Commands to add: /hivis <cleangreen / dirtygreen / cleanorange / dirtyorange / none Items to add: A clean green or orange hi-vis vest option for civilians. How would your suggestion improve the server? Just like the gloves, it'll give a great simple way of keeping yourself safe in traffic without having to take up part of your outfit.
