Description

I was born in the Badlands, a section of inner-city Los Angeles where the police would not go, and I Looked after my sister, Alonna, from a very young age. Although I had a few brushes with the law, I acted as a kind of urban Robin Hood to keep the streets in my neighborhood safe. In my teens, I rose through the ranks to become the leader of a gang of street-fighters who protect our turf from vampires using guerrilla tactics. Possessing the mind of a military strategist and the strength of a back-alley brawler, life in the ghetto hardened I to the extent that my life became less important than the cause, resulting in me trading my soul for a truck in a deal with a demon named Jenoff when I was only seventeen, because I believed I had no future.
Then I met Angel.. the vampire with a soul and He wins my trust after a while, but unfortunately not in time to save my sister Alonna from being turned into a vampire. I had no choice but to stake my own sister, a decision which continues to haunt me through the life. It is this loss that forces me to question my own motives(at first) and become more receptive to Angel's help, realizing I cannot do everything alone. Angel recognizes my strength and often calls on me if he needs back up in battle or if he needs protection for the people he cares about when he cannot protect them himself. Although I initially regard my time with Angel Investigations as a "paying side-gig," I eventually becomes a full-time member of the gang, gaining mutual respect for those I fight side-by-side with while finding his place in the world. However, my work with my new 'family' often leads to conflicted loyalties; Like when Cordelia is accidentally sucked into a portal to Pylea while a member of my old street crew, George, succumbs to the bite of a vampire. I feel responsible for my friend's death, believing that it would not have happened if I had still been around to help in the fight. Yet even in my grief, I realize that I could not commit the same crime twice and allow Cordelia to suffer the same fate, so I join Angel, Wesley, and Lorne to rescue her.
A short time after our return from Pylea, demons across the city are being massacred - regardless of whether or not they actually did anything to deserve being killed in the first place - and I come to the conclusion that my old gang is responsible for the deaths, currently being led by a man named Gio who has a serious grudge against supernatural entities due to an unrevealed event i
