Backstory: Born in the rain to a teenage beggar, she spent her childhood amongst the ruins of the old world and the city built on top of it from nothing but human resilience. Her father would occasionally visit. He was a stern man, preoccupied with the life of a mercenary. The small amount of money he provided her mother was just enough to keep them fed. By the age of 11, she had already fallen in with a local gang. At 13, she was a known figure on the streets and her father didn’t overlook her potential, taking her away from her mother. With him, she began a life of grueling training and mercenary work, working side by side with her father as both a student and a tool. Despite her requests to visit her mother, she would only find out too late, at 16, that her mother was murdered by drug dealers and her father had known and hidden it from her. She continued working for her father, his psychological conditioning and hold leaving her dependent. Their toxic relationship and her long-held resentment bubbled up under the surface, eventually leading to her killing him with a point-blank shot at 19. After killing her father, she became a solitary mercenary, establishing a reputation as Keres, a woman bearing death which you cannot escape. Eventually, at 21, she was offered a job by ANZÛ. What began as a single job eventually led her to become an exclusive operative for them, her reputation and skills only growing.

I know this is a cliché but I did try to create an actual person beyond her reputation. I'm still brainstorming more about ANZÛ, worldbuilding, items, as well as planning to add more mundane details to better establish her personality. Advices are welcome but I just wanted to share.
