If she's brought a drink or given one in front of a crowd then she won't turn it down.)<br/><br/><strong>Appearance/Style:</strong>Blake's tough-girl exterior certainly shines through with the way she looks in some aspects; her left arm is completely covered in tattoo's that stretch across her chest and down her side and left thigh, stopping just above her knee. She has a few piercings that are obvious to the naked eye like her flesh tunnels, second piercing on her ear and her tragus, along with other piercings that aren't so obvious like her tongue and navel. She likes the idea of looking feminine, so it is obvious that shes female in what she usually wears, but would secretly like to be able to suit things a little more feminine. On her abdomen, just to the right, is a small scar that has been rumored to be the wound of a fight she'd gotten into in her younger teen years, though really its from where she had her appendix removed when she was fifteen.<br/><br/><strong>Personality:</strong>Because of her background, Blake likes to put on a 'tough girl' front but it's only to hide her real personality. In reality, she likes girly things and is rather delicate but she would never show this to anyone. She can be quite sensitive to what other people say to or about her, but her facade would not allow her to get emotional in front of anyone. Instead, she would rather start a fight or argue back, even if she didn't think she would be able to win. Although petite, Blake can be stubborn, quite snappy and argumentative to most; her work colleges refer to her as a little firecracker. She finds it hard to make friends most of the time as she can be quite a complex character but once she gets them she's very fierce about sticking up for them. Blake's aggressiveness can be a hindrance to her in most situations as it causes her to be reckless and clouds her judgement. It also causes her to be blunt with her words, without much thought as to what the consequences of them would be. Overall, she's very sceptical of strangers and finds others kindness suspicious but once she befriends someone she's hooked for life. Ever since she was little, Blake as been sworn off relationships for fear it might turn sour like her mother and fathers. She also doesn't like the idea of someone seeing her insecurities by getting too close to her.<br/><br/><strong>History:</strong>Blake was born in the state of New Jersey, but her family moved down to South Carolina soon after her birth. Her upbringing wasn't the best; her and her 7 siblings had to practically fend for themselves. Between her alcoholic father and drug-addicted, bunny boiler mother, the kids had no chance. If it weren't for the older siblings growing up fast, some of them would have probably starved to death. Her three youngest siblings, a pair of boy twins and a slightly younger girl, was taken off them and fostered out as soon as the girl turned one. It wasn't unusual for them to be beaten occasionally, but the older ones always took the fall for the smaller kids. Blake will always remember the time that her oldest brother jumped in front of her when her father removed his belt to beat her. Her brother put up a good fight and argued with the man for ages but it only resulted in him taking her beating instead. One by one, her older brothers and sisters started moving out as soon as they could and when she was the oldest left, she took their places. Blake was the sixth oldest of the group. Another memory she would never forget is the time she stuck up for her little sister and her father actually ended up breaking a couple of her ribs after she retaliated back, giving him a hard slap. He shoved her so hard against the wall that it took her a while to catch her breath and realize where the pain was coming from. That instant happened when she was twelve and it wasn't the last.<br/><br/>As soon as she was eighteen, Blake moved to Florida to stay with a distant aunt until she could afford to live alone. She procured herself a job and began saving up money for a place to live. On her twentieth birthday, her aunt and uncle brought her a car and although it was beat up and rough, she loved it. Blake realized she loved cars from a young age and when she started driving in school, she loved it even more. It wasn't long before she moved out into her own apartment; it was only small and her bed was in her living room with an open plan kitchenette, the only other room being the old bathroom, but it completed its purpose and that's all she needed. Soon after moving to Florida, Blake secured a job at a restaurant and bar named 'Johnny's'. Her boss, along with the rest of the staff' were kind enough and she picked things up quickly.<br/><br/><strong>Current Situation:</strong>Blake has recently moved into the house of racers after being invited by Star. She still works full-time at Johnny's and manages to find time to practice her racing skills, work out and sleep.<br/><br/><strong>Car:</strong>A beat-up 1990 Nissan 300zx<br/><div class="floatright">(http://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/9/94/Blake-300ZX.jpg)</div><br/><strong>Relationships:</strong><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Star Freyman</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake met Star one evening Johnny's and to say the two butted heads was an understatement. Unfortunately for her, Star seemed to <em>enjoy</em> the tention between the two of them and continued to come into the bar. After around a week of the random visits and occasional arguments, Blake was closing the bar in the early hours of a Saturday morning. A small group of around three guys were still in the bar, completely drunk, along with Star who was in for one of her usual irritating visits and upon asking them all to leave because she was closing, the guys started causing trouble. They finally left, still angry and demanding drinks, and Star left as well without kicking up a fuss. After giving the place a once over, Blake left through the back into the employee car park where her car would be waiting for her. The first thing she saw was Star, then the metal pipe shattering her drivers side window being wielded by one of the drunks she'd kicked out of the bar. It took her a moment to register what was going on, but once she did, Blake lunged forward at them to wrestle the pipe away from them. Star happened to jump in and in minutes the drunks had left without much of a fight, though her window was still busted. That's when the two got to talking about cars and such, resulting in Star mentioning the house of armature racers. While Blake and Star do get on, they sometimes clash because of their similar personalities.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Demi Etherson</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake didn't meet Demi before she'd moved into the house with her and somehow the two were paired together as roomies. She's a little jealous of her beautiful figure and her height, so can sometimes be snappy at her without much thought for the others feelings. In all seriousness, Blake seems to think she's quite cute and seems to enjoy her company; maybe Demi would leave a good, lasting impression on her. Blake doesn't know her very well at present, even though they share a bedroom, but would like to get to know Demi a little better in the future.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Juliana Dang</div><div class="spoiler_body">The two don't know much about each other and have only met since moving into the house together. Blake's first impression of Juliana was that she was very pretty and she loved her cat, Mr. Muffles; It was nice to have a pet around the house. Blake thinks it's a little strange at how much Juliana gets along with Star and that the two are rooming together, but she has yet to interact with Jules enough to see why they get on so well. She hopes they won't clash, with how different they are to each other, and hopes that she can learn a little more about Juliana without asking directly.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Jason Sullivan</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake met Jason around a week after first encountering Star, while working out in the local gym. The two hit it off, despite Blake's difficult personality, and started meeting up regularly in the evenings to be work out partners. After a few weeks, things got a little too physical one late evening during a usual session and things only got steamier from there, leading into a one night stand. Although things were a little awkward after that, they both silently decided to put it behind them and forget about it, acting as if nothing had ever happened between them. Without realizing Jason was on of the racers at the home she'd been invited to by Star, Blake moved in with him and the two have acted the same ever since, remaining work out partners.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Adriano Guillermo</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake had never met Adriano before seeing each other upon moving into the house. Her first impression of him was that he was tall, though everyone is compaired to her in all fairness, and rather attractive. She hasn't mentioned this to anyone else and doesn't treat him any differently though. </div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Clint Shaw</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake doesn't know Clint very well. She's only seen him in her bar a few times, picking up women left, right and centre. She wasn't surprised when he started hitting on her and then moving onto another woman after being rejected. Blake doesn't particularly like what he does and would rather not get involved with him; if only she had that choice. She was pretty apprehensive about him moving into the house, but decided she'd try and get along with him for the sake of the group. It just so happened that a couple of days after deciding that, she walked in on Clint fucking a random chick in the garage; to say she wasn't impressed was an understatement.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Marcellus Smith</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake has little knowledge of Marcellus. She's spotted him around Johnny's a few times in the evenings, but he's never caused any trouble which is usually the only thing that catches her attention in the bar. She likes the look of him and his car, even if she does think it's a little too pretty, but hasn't had much of a chance to speak to him much about anything yet so still doesn't have much of an impression of him.</div></div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Mr. Muffles</div><div class="spoiler_body">Blake adores Mr. Muffles but doesn't usually give this away in front of other people. However, if she's ever alone with the feline she tends to give him loads of fuss and attention.</div></div>
