At the age of 9 she began assisting him in pulling off heists. The father/daughter team was very successful until the age of 15 when her father decided to break it up. Heather's father decided that she needed to get away from the lifestyle he was pursuing. So, he enrolled her into an exclusive finishing school and dropped out of her life.

Then she received a letter informing her that her father was in prison and wanted to see her. She visited her father and discovered that he was very ill and that the prison system could not justify or afford to send him to the care he needed to live. Heather took it upon herself to find a way to get her father released from prison so he could be treated by doctors that could save his life. Heather was introduced to DOMINIC, a man who could arrange her father's release from prison if she would pull off a series of heists he had lined up. This heist she is currently on is her last one before DOMINIC has her father paroled. Angela a woman in her early twenties. She's bubbly and outgoing. She has raised her share of hell in the past, despite her family's efforts to make her into a proper girl. Angela is the youngest daughter of Michael Petrello, the reputed organized crime boss. She has always been surrounded by people whose job is to protect her and keep her out of trouble. Angela is ambitious and persuasive getting most of what she wants out of life, by any means necessary. Currently she is not so secretly dating one of her father's business associates DOMINIC. Although her father disapproves of the relationship he is not going to interfere with her happiness. But has asked one of his trusted lieutenants LORENZO to keep an eye on the situation. Priest A graceful and cultured man in late thirties to fifties. He is very well groomed and mannered. Every movement he makes seems to have been planned out before hand. Although he has a most pleasant manor about himself, his mood can change to a more devious and malicious persuasion rather quickly. PRIEST'S history is as clouded and mysterious as his mannerisms, he is a loner and often makes jokes or referencing tid bits of information that only himself finds important or amusing. When Priest walks into a room it has an unsettling effect on most people, which Priest uses to his advantage. He seems to be a man out of another century, question is what century would he belong to? Lorenzo A man in late fifties. Once a muscular mountain of a man, he has allowed his physique to grow soft with his old age. Lorenzo is one of the most trusted lieutenants of the Petrello crime organization. He worked his way up from the lower level muscles to upper level decision makers. He has carved out a position, and will defend his territory with quick and brutal means without batting an eye. Nothing surprises Lorenzo, he likes to think that he has seen it all and has more than enough street smarts to keep him alive and out of jail. Mr. Petrello has personally asked Lorenzo to take a interest in making sure that DOMINIC does not hurt his daughter ANGELA in anyway. Lorenzo doesn't like or trust DOMINIC, and is looking for any dirt to dig up on him and then use that same dirt to bury him, both figuratively and literally. Dominic A cocksure man in his mid to late thirties. He takes pride in taking good care of his body and the clothes he wears. The joke about him is that he has never passed a mirror and not admired his own good looks. DOMINIC attended a small college and earned a degree in accounting, not because he enjoyed it, but he realized that with the knowledge he gained he could make even more money illegally. DOMINIC has had many run ins with the law over his life, and no matter what situation he finds himself in he relies on his charm and suave personality to get him what he needs. DOMINIC has plans on cutting a slice of the Petrello crime family's business for himself by eventually marring Petrello's youngest daughter ANGELA. But incase that doesn't workout he has been organizing several heists behind Petrello's back to get enough money to venture out on his own. DOMINC currently has a successful bar that he runs with the financial backing of Petrello. Anthony a man in his mid to late twenties. He is small and undersized, and no matter what he wears, clothes never fit him properly. He has a twitchy and whiney disposition. He has a high pitched, annoying Italian voice. Anthony is the nephew of LORENZO and has been looking after him since his father, LORENZO'S brother was sent off to prison when Anthony was just 2 years old. Anthony likes to think he is a very tough and a street-smart guy, but often hides behind LORENZO or the body guards that he always surrounds himself with. Anthony dislikes DOMINIC because of his good looks and his way with women. Jonathan a man in his mid to late 50s, in much better shape than men half his age. He is well groomed and always looks professional no matter what he is wearing. Has a look that is Mediterranean with his thick black hair. Is a loner, and fiercely independent. Slow to upset or rattle, except when it comes to his daughter Heather. Has serious remorse for bringing her into a life of a thief. Wishes nothing more than the line of thieves to end with her. Is currently serving a 10 year stint in a federal prison for a heist that went bad, Jonathan could have gotten away if he would have killed the security guard that blocked his way. But as Jonathan will tell you "I might be a thief, but I am not a killer". Doesn't believe that any heist is worth one person's death, that is what separates him from the common thief.
