Background Information
 RELATIONSHIP 

On 13 July 2023, Adam Ali proposed to SunMoon Lee at her favorite spot (the yacht by the pier). He special-ordered a ring for her, incorporating her love of panthers.

Early Life
I was left outside a brothel at three days old. The madam was barren (and single but always wanted kids) and decided to keep me and rear me as her own child. By age five, I had learned how to keep the books. By age seven, I was entrusted by my madam to direct the women on their encounters. By age 15, I had learned from the women how to talk smoothly to men and women and how to manipulate a situation to my advantage.

My madam never allowed me to work for her, though the offers were non-stop. She wanted me to get my education and ensured I was on top of my studies at all times. I finished my primary and secondary schooling early and went on to finish business courses at my local university before my 19th birthday.

Early Adulthood
At age 19, my madam introduced me to an older man. She said she was very sick and that he would take care of me if anything were to happen to her. I was very scared hearing her talk like this and did not understand what she was saying. She urged that I marry him. I trusted my madam without question, and this man and I married that same day at the courthouse. Four days later, my madam lay dead in my arms as I was brushing her hair.

The brothel was seized by the government and all that I could find was a secret stash of 25 gold coins – which I gave to my husband – a letter from my madam to me, and some jewelry, which I keep and wear in her memory.

Married Life
My husband was 34 years old when we married, 15 years my senior. He was the first man and only man that I had lay with, though I knew I was not his. I had a lot of knowledge of seduction from my madam and the women at the brothel, but when I experienced it with my husband, I was very shy and nervous. He treated me caringly during our first night together, which turned into lovingly over the years. I was as loyal to him as I was to my madam – even more so because of our intimacy and marriage.

After our first year of marriage, I found out who he “really” was…he was known on the streets as Master Lee – the Boss of the Blue Panther Clan (BPC). This clan was small, tight-knit and brutal. We ran a laundry business to front the criminal activity and had a secret, hidden cellar in the back of the shop where the clan met to discuss their affairs. I found the cellar one day by accident and stumbled into a planning meeting to overthrow an up-and-coming gang.

My husband saw me sneak in and allowed me to stay. I sat quietly in the corner and took everything in that they were saying. Six months later, they were asking for my input. The more I contributed, the more they asked. I felt valued and important to the clan.

Family Life
Eventually, I became pregnant with twin boys: Shim and Shaz. My life was happy and complete. My boys were growing fast and started to learn about the family business at a young age, about the same age I was when I started keeping the books at the brothel. I had no issues with this, as growing up with my madam and learning of some of the underground activities at a young age just seemed familiar and normal. I was proud of how fast my boys were learning from their father.

When the twins were 10 years old, Master Lee took them on their first crime to officially initiate them into the clan. That job was a success, as they were simply looting a local corner story and robbing the clerk. This job made the boys thrilled and they decided to sneak out the next night to test out their newfound skills. The boys had heard about some of the clan’s rivals and decided to loot a local rival’s business after-hours. However, the family’s only daughter was working to clean up the accounting in the back, and Shim knifed her in a panic. They ran away while she bled out on the floor.

Losing It All
For a year, no one knew who murdered Ramona and the Blue Panther Clan was clear. The boys were fully initiated now and were consistently doing jobs at Master Lee’s direction. One day, Shaz was being bullied by a neighborhood hooligan, and he let it slip that he would knife him just like Shim had knifed Ramona. The kid ran scared and went directly to his uncle who was Ramona’s father. That night, my entire family and our whole clan was attacked. I was down in the secret cellar cleaning up when I heard the commotion. My husband and sons were brutally tortured and murdered, while I sat frozen in tears and fear. I heard them saying that they had sent several groups out to wipe out the rest of our clan across the city and that I was the only one they had not found. I had no one to turn to in town. They were all dead. This rival gang was looking for me, and I stayed hidden for 24 hours until I heard no one inside the laundry business. Upon nightfall, I grabbed my precious jewelry from my madam, kissed the foreheads of my slain husband and sons (no one knew they were dead yet), and fled in tears.

Los Santos
Over the years, my husband told me if I ever found myself in danger or trouble, go to Los Santos. He said no one would know me there and no one would ever find me. He said it would be a new beginning.

Present Day
I don’t know if I want a new beginning. All I’ve ever known in life is the ways of the underground world. Abandoning who I am would make me feel really alone. I would essentially lose the final things that tie me to my entire life. I also want to never feel so vulnerable, sad and helpless ever again. Losing my madam at a young age and then experiencing the brutal murders of my husband and twins is heartache that numbs my whole life. Should I tuck all of that away, stuff it down, and pretend to be a new person??? Master Lee told me to have a new beginning in Los Santos if ever I were in trouble. I’ve never been in as much trouble. Maybe…I should try a new beginning.

Goals
Be safe and undetected by the rival gang. Use my skillset to start a new life. What are my skills? I am good at running a storefront. I ran the laundry business for the BPC. I have management experience based on the brothel, too. I am good at planning and directing people. I have first-hand knowledge (though not much experience) in seduction, threats, murder, extortion, robbery and gang-related activities.

With this, what can I do? I could open a massage parlor that relieves stress for those in my new city. I could sell juices and wine to my customers to help them be healthy with the juices or relaxed with the wine. I would have to look into what it takes and the cost of starting a business. I am essentially without money, so I have to be wise in my decisions.

I could start a “Rent-a-Friend” business. This will help me meet people, learn about my new city and perhaps make some good connections. I think this is a good idea and wouldn’t cost really anything to start up. Hopefully, it will pay off in one way or another.

Characteristics
Positives: Kind, Friendly, Very Loyal to those I'm committed to, Outgoing and a “fighter” – I don’t give up or give in easily

Negatives: Stubborn, Hot-headed, Inexperienced, and may experience psychosis at times based on my life experiences.
