Heather

Heather grew up with her parents and older sister. Her sister moved away once she was 18, leaving Heather behind. Her sister was always her rock. Texting was difficult due to lack of time to sit down and have a conversation. When she was 12, her parents had another baby, though she was stolen from the hospital and they never found her. Heather grew up mostly alone. She somewhat slept around and, due to lack of education, she got pregnant at 15. Her boyfriend offered no support and threatened to leave her. She terminated the pregnancy. She carried a lot of guilt about it, though she knows she couldn't have had a child. At 16 she left home and joined a local army training camp, lying about her age and claiming to be orphaned. She made friends with Liz quickly, and they formed a tight bond. She helped Liz escape when one of their friends died and she decided to quit. Heather went to war. A man called Penn acted as her father until his death. Everyone she knew died. She was sent back to the USA with PTSD and survivor's guilt. She turned to drinking and marijuana to ease her pain. She met Levy, and they started dating. They broke up because Levy was done with Heather calling her out. (Also, titty punches while sparring.) One day, she was arrested for drunk driving and brought to the police station. She met back up with Liz, who was heartbroken at how Heather had become. She tried to help, but Heather refused. She ended up getting into even worse drugs. Eventually she accepted help from Liz and Lex, and went through rehab and therapy. Liz eventually got her a job as a forensic scientist.
