Peggy Nelson: Former starlet turned junkie Unaware of the Kindred

Noteworthy Skills: Streetwise with a specialty in drug trade

The two Licks walked through the gutter alley, neither of them particularly happy to be there. They wore hoodies and jeans, and though they both resembled teenagers, they both had been around long enough to know which way was up, and when the streets start to heat up, there was only one place to go to get the info. Ol’ Peg. Though, as these two licks have learned. Sometimes finding that junkie bitch is a fucking hassle. After what seemed like an hour of asking around, greasing a few palms, the two finally find their informant for the night. Peggy Nelson. Huddled in a bundle of dirty blankets next to a trash can that was blazing with an evening fire. The woman lifted her head up to look at the two before her. Kids, to her eyes. She snorted a little, picking up a bottle that was mostly empty, but she brought it to her lips and sucked down some of the brown liquid.

“Past your boys bedtimes ain’t it?”

She asked, her sarcasm slightly slurred with a bit of intoxication. The licks give each other a passing glance. And then one of them steps forward, holding out his hand, between two fingers was a little baggie, and in it, crystal.

“Can we stay up to hear a bedtime story?”

The Lick retorted back. Peg’s eyes narrowed on that little bag. That slice of heaven, and despite her bodies’ initial reaction, she didn’t move to grab it. Instead she looked at the two more seriously. She spoke next, and her voice was thick with need.

“What do ya wanna know?”

Peggy is in her late thirties, but she will lie and say she's younger. She has short brown hair, and sunken, yet still sharp green eyes. She is homeless, and her clothing reflects that. Her looks generally convey the life of an addict, a hard life. She lives among the homeless in her city, bouncing from place to place, never settling for too long. Though anybody able to find Peggy, and supplies what she needs, she’s bound to have the latest gossip on the street.
Peggy was a young and ambitious woman who seemed to be on the fast track for fame, and destined for movie stardom. She was, for a short while, a very hot ticket to have, and directors from all over wanted her to star in their newest film.
It was while attending a Hollywood party, that Peggy met her career downfall. Someone offered her one of the many vises available to those with disposable income. No one is really sure anymore which drug was the one she tried that night. (She claims it was a different one with each retelling of the story.) But that first time, was her complete and utter downfall. Her career, her chance for fame, all of it was flushed down the toilet so Peggy could seek out that next fix.
