Biography[]

Early Life[]

Shorty was born in Paris, France on 1986. Shorty has a hazy past - although she grew up in a wealthy French family, she quickly became bored with her daily life. Wanting to live dangerously, she began to flirt with drug dealers across Eastern Europe in search of a new adventure. However, things began to go twist for Shorty, which led her to leave the country and join forces with the infamous bounty hunter, Vinnie. Although Shorty had a minimal role in earlier SH games by mostly serving as Vinnie's eye candy, she gained a more active and integral role in the games, later becoming a playable player in the entourage. From there on, Shorty and Vinnie would continue establishing their reputations as notorious bounty hunters.

Appearance[]

Shorty is usually depicted with grey hair, red heels, and rouge lipstick while donning a red femme fatale dress. Like Vinnie, she can be always be seen wearing sunglasses. Though she is sometimes seen without them.

Abilities[]

Shorty is a weapons expert and an experienced assassin with skills on par to Vinnie and Kiro. She is the best sharpshooter of the group and ideal for tactical diversions.
