Brooklyn 'B' Malnik
Twenty-eight, guarded, loyal, blunt, twisted sense of humor
Brooklyn’s story is nothing close to perfect; in fact, it is probably the furthest from perfect you can get, she was literally born next to a dumpster her strung out cokehead of a mother barely survived it and as bad as it might sound a part of B wishes she didn’t. The cokehead father took B to an orphanage the second she got out of the womb, left her close to one is closer to the truth, she was found early the next morning by a gardener and was taken to the hospital in a critical condition. It was only luck that B had almost no side effects to her mother’s excessive drug use, the only side effect she got was her big eyes, which she doesn’t really see as a punishment.
Brooklyn pretty much taught herself self defense before she could tie her own shoes properly, in the orphanage she lived in you had to protect the few possessions you had if you wanted to keep them, it was either bully or be bullied and she chose not to be a victim. Although she could easily take on children, grown men were a bit beyond her reach, she got raped by several of her foster parents even though they’re supposed to be ‘approved by the state’ first, whatever the state was doing, it was definitely not their jobs. Even at the age of ten, which was when she was raped for the first time, B knew what was happening was wrong without having to be told and made a promise to herself that one day she would get even with those who did her harm.
Thirteen, that’s the age B was when she ran away from the orphanage, she couldn’t handle being sent to another perverts house and she thought she’d be able to make it on her own, she did, roughing it out on the streets of Brooklyn, but only just. She got involved with a street gang a few months after she started living on the streets, robbing at gun point and swinging around a knife became normal to her, a way to survive and she became surprisingly good at it. By the age of twenty-one she out gunned and outfought most of her fellow gang members and a lot of jealousy toward her was brewing within the lower ranked members of the gang. It escalated to such an extent that a group of heavily armed gangsters decided to get rid of her, grabbed her when she was asleep, tied her up, beat her within an inch of death and dropped out into the road in front of a restaurant at two in the morning. Brooklyn expected to die that night, but instead she met her Guardian angel Geronimo Allegri, Italian mob boss and all around saint according to B.
Ghoulie, as which he’s known to the rest of the mob took her in and nursed her back to health, gave her a job, saved her life and she pledged her loyalty to him, a promise is not something B takes lightly. She began doing simple tasks for him, but they day things went bad on a business deal and she proved to be handy with all kinds of weapons including her fists she was promoted to gun runner. The first few people B killed were for personal reasons, she tracked down those scumbags who tried to ruin her as a kid and blew each of their brains out until every last one of them were gone, only then did she finally feel free of the pain they caused her. After offing a half a dozen men Ghoulie was impressed and gave her first assassination target, which she of course did smoothly, without even being noticed and from that day on she became a part time assassin on top of her permanent position of gun runner. It’s been six years since Ghoulie took her in and she sees the mob as her family, the closest thing she has ever had to one at least.
P E R S O N A L I T Y
Brooklyn, or B, as she’s known us by her friends is a really strange girl, she killed for a living but she feels no remorse for the lives she took instead she justifies it to herself, she believes every person that died by her hands deserved it. What makes B the perfect assassin is the fact that you’d never expect her to be one; physically she looks just like a normal woman, beautiful yes, but normal. Her personality will indicate that she’s a bit aggressive though, she doesn’t like being stared at and will run her mouth at whoever does, she curses a lot even when she’s not angry and has a slightly twisted sense of humor sometimes. She’s pretty bubbly though and if you don’t do something to piss her off she’d become a very loyal friend.
Trust is something that won’t come easily for B; she considers her trust something that has to be earned. Emotional connections with people are rare for her too, at this moment there are only a hand full of people she truly cares for, which includes Ghoulie, the mob boss she works for and his five year old daughter, she’d glady give her life for them. B hasn’t been in a serious relationship her entire life, she’s had many flings with men and woman, mostly women, but she has never truly been in love with someone.
She hung up her assassin’s hat and exchanged it for a nanny’s; she still gets to carry a gun though since she’s pretty much a bodyguard too, the girl she watches isn’t just any girl, she’s Allegri’s five year old daughter Bambi, it’s her job to make sure she’s safe no matter what. Unlike a normal bodyguard B is practically part of the family and lives and travels with the Allegri’s icluding to Cambria Bay, where they vacation/hide out often.
----------
Friends:
She'd have a few, but not too many outside of the mob, she's not with Bambi 24/7 and can be seen dancing in club a lot she does drink and smokes cigarettes but if you offer her drugs she might cut off your hands... Literally.
Enemies:
There will be loads of these, she's very blunt so the chance that she severely offends someone is always there, then there are members of rival mobs or anyone who thought it would be a good idea to mention using drugs around her, she hates it and won't be seen around someone who uses, unless of course she doesn't know.
Romance:
Sex, sure, romance, not so much. Brooklyn has never been nor will she soon be serious with anyone, she's bisexual but prefers woman above men. She'll need some flings, flirts and who knows, maybe a future girl/guy to steal her heart.
