Gertrude Talabano (DA)

 Infant Sorrow - Furry Walls 

Gertrude "Gerry" Talabano is a character in Dead Awakened.

Background
Born in the ghetto to juvenile delinquents, Gertrude had a tough life spelled from the start. Her parents were killed by the time she was 6 and Gertrude learned to defend herself, wrecking havoc as a child. She believed that t was either kill or be killed, so Gertrude became a known criminal while just being a child. Eventually however, the law caught up to her and Gertrude was thrown into baby booking. Enduring abuse of all kinds, Gerry was pulled out of there by the BPD major and given a second chance to live outside of the streets. While life in the suburbs was better for her, Gerry could never fully adapt.

Old habits returned during her teens and Gertrude embraced mischief, discreetly committing crimes around the city with a group of friends. Eventually, Gerry would soon learn that old habits died hard when she scorched unknowingly a lawn belonging to notorious mobster. With the mob placing a bounty on her hooded persona, Gerry was terrified and revealed her misdeeds to her adoptive parents. While disappointed, both agreed to keep their daughter on a low profile. This worked for a few years but before Gerry could begin college studies, the mob cornered her and her adoptive family. But instead, the mob forced Gerry into employment.

Gerry has spent the next 6 years working as gun thug and hustler for the mob, something she despises with her being but must endure with minimum wage. The major agrees to protect her and only her from the law as much as he can. On her spare time, Gerry opts to practice hand to hand combat in the form of boxing, something she shows promise in, as well as swimming.

Personality
Kenberg is easy-going and often quiet. As much as he looks sociable, he chooses his moments. He is quick to impress everyone with his smile, something that seems to be a notable trademark of his. He only talks to those close to him, refusing to open up to others as often as he should. He is also quick to turn against people he barely knows, because of his instinct as a bodyguard.

Skills
Gerry is skilled in many areas of criminal activity, from arson to robbery. Being employed as muscle for the mob, Gerry is as intimidating as possible and needs to be to last on the streets of Bellforde.

Relationships
