[b]History:[/b]
Sarah has always had it tough, even in her childhood. Her mother was a cashier at the local supermarket, her father was supposed to be a mechanic at the steel mill, but spend more time drunk and beating up his family than working. Sarah is the oldest of 5 kids, meaning she had to take care of her siblings for the majority of her life, everything from making sure they did their homework to preparing meals when her mum was working extra shifts. Sarah grew up in a tough neighborhood, called Creek Hills, and although she enjoyed school and learning, her life circumstances made it hard to be a particularly excellent student. 

When her dad got drunk, it was Sarah who became a frequent target of his aggressive burst outs. She wouldn’t allow him to touch her siblings, standing between him and them when her dad got frustrated because they were too loud or got hungry. It was a frightening, trauma-inducing experience she had to live through, one that would eventually turn her into a cold and distant person. 

Her life got even worse at the age of 16. Her dad fell over unconscious one evening, paramedics would declare him dead right there in their little apartment soon after. The doctors told Sarah and her mum it was due to alcohol poisoning, the liquor had finally won the battle against her old man. Sarah couldn’t be happier to have gotten rid of that bastard once and for all, maybe her and her family could finally live a normal life now. But it wouldn’t come to that.

The loss of her husband caused Sarah’s mum to go down a spiral of self-depression, and she soon after started popping pills, barely leaving the bed or the apartment. Child services picked up on the issue soon enough however, taking away the mum’s custody before things got worse. As all the children were underage, they would end up in adoptive families, and be more than likely separated from each other in the process. It was that day that Sarah decided she was done with everything. Her siblings could still be saved, provided they ended up in nice homes, but her? It was too late to repair the pieces that had broken over the years.

During the night, as Sarah and her sibling were staying in an orphanage, the girl packed her few possessions, gave each sibling a little kiss as they slept, and took off into the night. She eventually got together with a crowd of street kids, youngsters like her that had left home to be independent, and often, criminals. Sarah started to learn how to pickpocket, and eventually stealing from stores and gas stops with the other kids. It was a tough life, sure, but not worse than anything Sarah had already went through. 

As she got older, Sarah became a pretty, young woman, one that would often get catcalled by a lot of men. She decided that stealing had gotten old, and in general the danger of getting caught was always high. She had the looks, why not do something else for a living? Soon after she started working as an exotic dancer at “Desserts”, a strip club that was fairly known around the Hoxton Tenements. She became a regular dancer there, one that would often get called over for private shows, maybe even the occasional quickie every now and then. Sarah didn’t mind working there, it allowed her to make enough cash to afford a little apartment close-by, to be able to buy groceries and clothes as she pleased. 

Her days of stealing however were not completely left behind, as Sarah soon realized that horny and lonely man were an easy target for a quick buck. When her customers left, the generous tip was not the only thing they had left behind with the exotic dancer. It was that way that she got to know David King, trying to steal from him. The young man was not a regular, but he visited the club every now and then. She knew he was associated to some kind of gang, which meant he had to have rolls of money with him. 

When she was done with their private session, David got up, grinned, and asked for his watch and money back. Sarah was stunned; normally customers were not paying enough attention to realize something had gone missing. She got nervous, fearing the man would get her fired and back on the streets. As she returned the items, David however surprised her with an offer. He called are a somewhat competent thief, someone who people would not suspect in case of theft. The man offered her to swing by their turf, if she was interested, and maybe they could work out some sort of partnership.

Sarah thought about the offer for a few days. She didn’t dislike her current life, but no matter how tough or independent she wanted to appear, she missed to have people in her life. She had to think about her siblings every day, wondering how they were doing and if their own lives had gotten any better. A gang wasn’t really a replacement for them, but David had seemed nice enough, so she decided to give him a chance. That’s the story of how Sarah joined the H10 crew at the age of 22, becoming a thief and scammer for the group.

[b]Psychological Profile:[/b]
Sarah’s tough life, especially her childhood, has turned her into a very cold and distant person. She doesn’t talk much, generally preferring to listen and observe, taking mental notes of everything around her. She can sense when people get angry, thanks to her dad, and dislikes anyone with short fuses. Sarah is the type of person that does not laugh at jokes, and always keeps her emotions hidden away. Her demeanor is usually calm and reflective, she is someone who prefers to thoroughly ponder about a situation before taking any action. 

She is not a pessimist, but a very grounded realist. Sarah has experienced that life is harsh, and if you want anything, you have to go and get it yourself. Trusting people comes not easy at all to her, and to this day, there is only a handful of crew members that enjoy her trust. In normal circumstances, Sarah is an egoist that puts her own well-being over anyone else’s, although in rare cases she can stand up for someone else, as long as that someone is one of the few people she trusts. 

When on the job, Sarah puts on the persona of a flirty and promiscuous woman. She likes to play with her target’s emotions, pulling their strings like a puppet’s before stealing their money or scamming them. She knows how to make men go crazy for her, a skill she has picked up over the years as an exotic dancer. In reality however, Sarah has difficulties having genuine attraction or feelings towards someone, fearing that love will eventually turn into hurt and pain. She is a woman with a tough exterior, but is very vulnerable in her inner core.

The few people she can call friends now about her life story, maybe not all of it, but enough to know that Sarah does not like to talk about the past or her family. She is a good listener, someone that will listen to you if you have a problem. Although trusting does not come easy to her, those who enjoy her trust can count on her as a reliable friend when times get tough. 

[b]Powers:[/b]
Mind Control - Sarah is able to read other people's minds and even control them to a certain degree. Reading the mind of other's is fairly easy and straight-forward, however, it can be difficult to focus if the target is surrounded by a larger group of people. The commands Sarah can give are limited to basic requests and can't be too complicated. She might be able to control people further if she practices enough. It is currently unknown if this power works on any living creature that is not human.
