Activity Level:nearly daily, at least multiple times a week- The Character -
Name:Amy Locke
Species:Human
Age:24
Gender:Female
Affiliation:Vakarian Security, Heaven
Member Group:Heaven
Appearance:If one was to run into Amy on the streets of Chorazin one wouldn’t pick her out as any form of law enforcement. She stands at approximately 5 foot 4 inches, with a light build. Her hair is cut at about chin length, tapering up towards the back. She keeps the back spiked, much to the dismay to her superiors but hey, what matters is results right? On the street though she can be spotted in blue jeans and a graphic tee of some kind. Just another punk on a street corner. Hey, some things never change.
Personality:Amy will be described by many as a goth or a pessimist. Honestly there’s a bit wrong with this analysis. Yes she is the first in the group to point out the potential downside to a situation. She’s also one of the first to point out how to fix it. Her family was military long before the barrier came into existence. What she ended up picking up was a knack for finding the dark side of issues, what could go wrong, then doing everything to fix it.
This is how she works. She always analyzing a situation and coming up with the best ways to deal with it. However this is a serious dampener on any type of person to person relationship, something that she has put off as simply her ‘not looking’. After all she is a highly intelligent individual, and more than capable of taking care of herself. It’s not like she needs anyone.

History:Her history is actually not much in the way of things that happen in Chorazin. Both of her parents were marines in the military before the Barrier and Hellmouth arose and locked off the region. She was born just when things were starting to stabilize down after the initial shock of isolation had died down. Sure, it was still a dangerous time, but not nearly comparable to the panic that ensued initially. Even with that she did all the normal things that a person is expected to on the outside. Go to school, attempt to make friends (subsequently fail), learn how to defend ones self. You know, the usual. Her parents had hoped that with her IQ and love of learning that she’d go into tech… something that involved her doing something with her mind and didn’t involve being shot at.
One can imagine their supportive disappointment when they learned she had signed up for one of the most prestigious law enforcement academies within Chorazin: Vakarian.
Is it her fault that she decided that changing the world, with her skill set, would be easiest from a position within law enforcement? Hey, blame her parents if you need to blame someone. Still, it’s not much to go off of, seeing as she stayed out of trouble for the most part. Well until she actually entered the academy. Amy has a notorious mouth on her and a near non-existent respect for authority. Meaning that while she should have excelled within the Academy, she ended up just barely graduating with some rather… interesting marks on her record.
Still, she got through. That’s got to count for something. Not as much as she would have hoped though. The partner they saddled her with was none other than Shadow Daviks, laughing stock of Vakarian Security. The man had single handedly sunk his career in pursuit of the Hellions and their infamous leader Keyser Soze. Basically it was a token position. Working with him would sully her record and make it near impossible for her to advance. He couldn’t be thrilled either with how her record now reads.
Still, if they managed to catch Soze, then maybe this could all work out in their favor.
As the years passed, Amy watched her partner fall deeper and deeper into this obsession with Soze. Locke began to suspect that his hatred for her was the only thing keeping him together; at least as together as he was. Locke was sure that one day she would wake up and find his brains splattered about the office. The alcohol certainly wasn’t doing him any favors. She was even having trouble luring him out with football anymore. That was the true pity as he was actually rather good at the sport.
Though why he insisted on calling soccer football she couldn’t understand.
Soon after they were summoned before a special ‘Coalition’ and informed that the file they had been working on involving both Soze and the Hellions was officially closed. There were to be no legal ramifications of their actions. They had been ‘pardoned’ by the big three security firms for the majority of their crimes. What was left was simply washed away when cash and tech swapped hands… compensation for the wrongs. The whole process sickened Amy. This wasn’t justice. This wasn’t what she thought they were fighting for. She understood that the Tainted were the true enemy here, but does that make the Hellion’s their friends?
Does that wipe away all of the blood that they’ve spilled?
