Personality:
May is a vixen of a woman, easily fitting herself into social situations, and able to flex with social cues flawlessly. Growing up, her mom worked as a bar waitress that toted her children along to put to work, exposing May to the scene and obscene early. It left a distaste in her mouth for her mother’s family - hell for family in general. Still, it grew her up hard on the inside, calculating, always looking for the next foot up.
On the outside, May is a sweet girl, polite, friendly, and easy going. She's all grace and femininity, especially when the situation calls for it. That is until you get her into the bar, and she becomes as rowdy as any one of the boys - its a streak of her Irish nature to get rowdy when the liquor starts. Meanwhile, inside, she is snarky, sarcastic, cruel and has no pity for others. She does not care about community, or good deeds, and is all about getting herself forward in life. One would call her selfish - if they could ever see past the mask she has refined all her life for the world to see.
Deeper still is a need to be accepted - something she never received from her mother. Her father - or at least the man her mother ended up married to - was a bastard that deserted them shortly after she turned eight. Since then, she had grew to hate her mother for her cold hearted nature and lack of warmth for her and her two younger brothers. The only love she has in her heart is for an old motorcycle she had found and fixed, and her two siblings. If someone touched her brothers, she'd kill them without a second thought to the fall out or whether she would get caught.
History:
Maeve Thatcher grew up in the outskirts of Dublin. Her mother had been a bar waitress when she met May's father. A quick tryst later, the man had returned to London and she was pregnant. Desperate to hide the fact from her family, she had married a family friend who worked at the bar with them. The man would sire two more children with her, May's younger siblings - Thomas and James. Since they had both worked in the bar, the children were often underfoot and in the bar until bedtime, when they would be sent home to sleep while the nanny watched them.
At eight, her father had disappeared. May always suspected something had happened to him, but her mother had made it clear he deserted them and left them due to his own choices - what those were never came to light. After that, May had quit school and started working with her mother to help support her two younger brothers. At first she just cleaned in the mornings, but as she got older, she started serving and then bartending. When that got boring, she tried her hands at cards and found she was faster with them then most men. In no time at all, she was conning the lot of the bar out of their money and lining her own. None of them seemed to mind as she was pretty on the eyes and always laid on the flirtations like a professional.
Due to reading the easy nature of men, she avoid relationships determined not to let anyone close enough to her to hurt her the way she's watched so many women be hurt. She relies only on herself and her own abilities. Ironically, she's still untouched at her age of twenty-one, but you'd never know from her actions. The time finally came when she had enough of her mother, had enough of the constant fighting, and as her mother had aged and begun to loose her sanity, she had let slip that she was the reason her father had left - because she had been a bastard child who came unwanted, and once the man realized she wasn't his, had drove him away.
London was a refreshing change from Dublin, with new people to con, new money to be made, and new chances to get be who she wanted to be. With her brothers off doing their own thing, she had been in London for two years now. She had secured a spot bartending and playing piano at (The Pub), determined to earn her way into the owners good graces, waiting for her moment to make her mark.
Worked with Kerry – casual friends TBD
