Backstory
Lucia's mother Yana Volkov moved to Mexico from Russia in 1995. In Feburary 1998, Yana had a one night stand with Pablo Madrid which resulted in her becoming pregnant with Lucia. Lucia was raised in Mexico and would often play with her half siblings while her mother was at work. When she was eight, her mother met an American man while at work, and the three of them went to America; Where her mother married the man.

Lucia would often be brought back to Mexico by her mother to visit with her half siblings, as she thought it would be good to have them keep in touch and not stop her daughter from knowing her family. Lucia looked up to her older brother Santiago Madrid when she was a child and he was her favorite of her siblings.

She slowly started to forget her native language, mostly due to her mother trying to make her more American when they moved to California, Resulting in Lucia only remembering some Spanish and Russian words, while having difficulty with her accent sometimes.

Her step father Travis would often have her help him work on cars at his garage, which she greatly enjoyed being of help to him. When she got older, she got a job at his garage, while also working part-time at a restaurant as a waitress. Her step father wasn't very good with his money, only two years after marrying her mother, he ended up losing most of his money to loan sharks.

To make a living Yana became a stripper, while Travis continued to work as a mechanic, and Lucia helping as much as she could. Eventually, Travis dug himself too deep and ended up being murdered by the group he had owed a large sum of money to. Yana and Lucia as his wife and step daughter were then told it was now their job to find a way to pay off Travis' debt.

Yana stopped taking Lucia to Mexico, neither able to afford to visit after Travis' death. Lucia watched her mother as the woman went from stripper to proustite to make more money to pay the debt. Although she offered to help her mother pay the debt, Yana rejected it, saying that what Lucia made was Lucia's and she'd been the fool to stay with Travis in the first place.

Behind her mother's back, Lucia began to sell drugs and do various low risk crimes, trying to make as much money as she could so she could help her mother. Sadly, a John ended up killing her mother during an altercation. Leaving Lucia to use the money she'd been saving to pay for her mother's burial and get herself a small apartment. However, her mother had picked up a drug habit before her death, which left a lot of the debt still unpaid. Lucia came home to her apartment ransacked, a note pinned to the wall telling her it was now up to her to finish paying the debt her parent's owed.

The next day, she got a letter from her brother Santi, offering to pay for her to move to Los Santos. Seeing this as a chance to get away and start a new life, while also being able to see her beloved brother again; Lucia jumped at the offer and packed what little belongings she had to her name. She got on the plane the soonest as her brother could get the ticket ready for her.
