<div style="color:#FFFFFF">Raquel Amanda Gabriela Silverio was born the 3rd child out of 5 in a poor working class family living in the heart of the Brazilian favela, the shanty town of Rocinha, Rio de Janéiro. Her father and her older brothers worked as underpaid labour whereever they could, while Raquel helped her mother and grandmother to look after her younger siblings. While life was hard and unforgiving, Raquel was blessed with a loving and tight-knit family. But time passed and her father eventually turned ill when Raquel was 7 years old. Desperate for money, her older brothers, Jorge and Fabio, turned to a local crime lord and drug dealer for work. The physical labour throughout their lives had made her brothers tough and hardy, and being from the favela made sure noone would miss them, the perfect kind of disposable grunts. They ended up becoming debt collectors, walking from shanty to shanty and extorting sometimes imaginary debts from the poor residents, by any means necessery.

That was an arguement neither Raquel nor her mother could fight, because it was indeed true. Raquel was 8 years old at this point.

Another 6 years would pass and Raquel's family was doing better.

And eventually, Raquel's brothers got in over their head. Caught in the crossfire of a deal gone bad with a rival druglord, they both lost their lives in a flash. Raquel's mother was stricken with grief, having outlived two of her children, and their family once again fell on hard times. When then Raquel's younger sister, Maria, fell ill like her father had before, Raquel was now forced into working hard like her siblings had before her. Desperate, she approached the drug lord that had employed her brothers against her better knowledge, knowing fully well that he was her best shot at money. While he was no saint, far from it, the drug lord knew that there was always money to be had with desperate young girls who had run out of options. Officially, the 14-year old Raquel was hired as a Maid at the drug lord's mansion, which was nothing short of a front for a bordello and drug den.

Personal History

Early Years

Raquel Amanda Gabriela Silverio was born the 3rd child out of 5 in a poor working class family living in the heart of the Brazilian favela, the shanty town of Rocinha, Rio de Janéiro. Her father and her older brothers worked as underpaid labour whereever they could, while Raquel helped her mother and grandmother to look after her younger siblings. While life was hard and unforgiving, Raquel was blessed with a loving and tight-knit family. But time passed and her father eventually turned ill when Raquel was 7 years old. Desperate for money, her older brothers, Jorge and Fabio, turned to a local crime lord and drug dealer for work. The physical labour throughout their lives had made her brothers tough and hardy, and being from the favela made sure noone would miss them, the perfect kind of disposable grunts. They ended up becoming debt collectors, walking from shanty to shanty and extorting sometimes imaginary debts from the poor residents, by any means necessery. Raquel's mother was furious when she found out, but her brothers insisted that they did it for their father and refused to step down.

But even so, their efforts ended up being in vain as Raquel's father succumbed to his illness before Jorge and Fabio had amassed enough money for his treatment. Their mother, devastated, begged them to reconsider their affiliation with the local drug lord but they again refuse, claiming that with their father dead they needed the money now more than ever. That was an arguement neither Raquel nor her mother could fight, because it was indeed true. Raquel was 8 years old at this point.


Another 6 years would pass and Raquel's family was doing better. Jorge and Fabio had risen in the ranks and had started to bring in the big money, though it had cost the entire neighbourhood's trust in the Silverio family. And eventually, Raquel's brothers got in over their head. Caught in the crossfire of a deal gone bad with a rival druglord, they both lost their lives in a flash.

Officially, the 14-year old Raquel was hired as a Maid at the drug lord's mansion, which was nothing short of a front for a bordello and drug den. Raquel believed that this would be her life from now on, but that was before the man known as Victor Cruz stepped into it, a Revolutionary with a message.

Revolutionary Years

Raquel hadn't even begun "Working" at the bordello before the man known as Victor Cruz stepped in. He was a tall, handsome man with flowing black hair, dressed in a white suit and flowery shirt. When Raquel first met with him, he had stepped into the bordello with a declaration of war, and a message of revolution. Claiming to be an agent of someone known only as "The Baron", he made a theatrical announcement to the workers of the bordello to join him in their "righteouss cause".

Raquel didn't learn of this as a lie until many years later.

Teenage Years

With the recruits he had gathered, Cruz retreated into the Amazonas, hiding away from prying eyes among the untouched wilderness. There, boot camp began. No division was made among the recruits. Young and old, men and women all trained, ate and slept together throughout the basic training. But it was brutal, unforgiving and utterly merciless. Most of the recruits didn't have it in them and many collapsed from exhaustion or fled the camp during the training. Those who were only average or underperforming were soon removed from the main group into a "reserve troop".
