The Full Story
A very unique man with light brown hair, tannish skin, an odd sense of fashion. His name, REX LUTHER. Rex grew up in eastern Europe, the Ukrainian slums. Olga, Rex's lovely and adoring mother who stays home all day and watches after Rex, and Vitaliy, Rex's father, a member of the Ukrainian mob who was with the family up until Rex was only 7 before cheating on his mother with a prostitute he fell in love with outside a club in Kyiv, Ukraine. Rex only remembers his father as someone who suffered from alcoholism and had extreme rage issues which is where Rex believes he got his spontaneous anger from. Rex is traumatized from the experiences he faced as a child like the time he overheard his parents arguing in the kitchen one night when Vitaliy came home piss-drunk and threatened to kill his mother and him. That is when his mom decided it was not safe to be there since Vitaliy had a group of very dangerous men in his mob that would track both of them down if they reported him to the police. At 3 am, they both decided to pack up and leave with just over 500 from Vitaliy's dirty stash in cash to travel far away from Ukraine. They quickly traveled to Kyiv International Airport. They thought America was the best place to go and they chose a city, very young and flourishing at the time, Los Santos. When they arrived they walked for hours and hours to find a random, abandoned run-down home in the dirty areas of Los Santos trying not to get caught. His mother instantly went to look for work and to start a new life away from any danger in Ukraine. She began work at a metal part factory, getting paid minimum wage and being in terrible working conditions 12-14 hours a day. It was not a lot but enough for both of them to live in a little bit of a nicer home, and just enough food to eat 4 full meals a week. Rex began going to public school in the hood and had a very rough time fitting in at first. He would get bullied constantly and kids would make fun of his oddly shaped nose and accent. Everyday Rex would walk home with tears on his face. The school was dreadful and he hated every minute of it, the kids were the worst. One day on his walk back home a group of young men stopped him. Rex was scared sh*tless as he thought he was getting robbed or attacked, but the men made no threatening move on him. They knew what was happening to him at school as they saw it one day and they knew how hard life was being poor. Many of the men could relate and decided to take Rex under their wing. He started hanging out with them after school and they treated him like a brother of their own. He felt he needed this manhood since his father was not there for him as a child. The 5 men he met ended being a whole gang that called themselves "The Ballas Of LS" They all became a tight-knit group and taught Rex many key morals of the gang. The loyalty, the trust, the dependence. Those were all engraved into Rex's mind at a young age. They told Rex what it took to survive in the hood. They were not a particularly good group of people. They walked Rex through how to rob stores, steal cars and assert himself as a top dog in LS. They were not the best influence but they were the only thing left for Rex and made him the person he is today. As time went on and his mom kept working in factories, Rex dropped out of High School and fully pursued gang life with The Ballas. Time went on and one terrible day he got a call from Olga's work that his mother had passed from Tuberculosis. This sent Rex into a deep depression since he had no one left. But after some time he realized this only grew him closer to his gang. He started living with them. They would hang out all day. They would always play serious pickup basketball which made Rex very competitive later on. They spent many years together but one day they were all outside, chilling on the side of the street, and that's when everything had changed for Rex once again. A red, janky car was driving by and shot his close friend in the gang, Ricky. He did not end up making it. With all the death and grief that Rex dealt with, it was time to make a change. He needed to put himself in a better situation. He left the Ballas and they respectfully let him go. He wanted to start living for himself and making a living in Los Santos, honest or not. He started working at a fast-food burger chain and got himself an apartment with the money. He felt he was finally getting his life back. He is excited for what the future would bring him in the forever growing, beautiful city of LS especially with everything he has experienced. He wants to become successful no matter what it takes, legal or illegal. Rex Luther begins his journey to success and fortune.
