Early Days
Violet or - as she prefers it - "Vi... just Vi!" was born august 9th 801 A.S. on Freeport 4 in Magellan. Her father was a technician on the freeport, while her mother was an unhappy and unsuccessful actress. At the age of 3 her mother decided to leave her family to chase her dream to become a famous actress. She left with a rich businessman she met on Planet Curacao while working there as a barkeeper in one of the many luxury baths. Her father always told Violet her mother went to Planet Manhattan, but she never saw her again since then. People say that's the reason why she is seen in the Orbit around Planet Manhattan quite frequently, but maybe she's just there to hit on one of the many traders passing by for a job or to mock the authorities...
Childhood
Violet was tutored by her father himself. Even if she seemed to have quite some smarts, she rather spend her time in using those to cause all kinds of trouble on the station: disturbing the administration, crawling through funnels or stealing sweets from one of the docked ships in the cargo bay - you name it. Being overworked, her father never got or regained control of her and still tried to be as good as a father as he could, which turned out in spoiling Vi and she learned early to take advantage of her fathers wrongdoing.
Around 808 A.S. Violet's father got hired by the IMG on Freeport 4 to help a freelancer named "George Tinsley" to construct the Barrier Gate Station in Coronado. Not completly knowing what this station even was about he decided to take the job based on the high payment offered to him. Vi lived basically on a constuction site for about a year until the Barrier Gate Station was habitable for her, her father and the other workers - she still is grossly proud to be one of the people who "built" the station. As time went on she and her father stayed there. He was working hard to provide Vi with as much as possible, while she was once again causing - and this time also getting into - all kinds of trouble. Once put into operation, the station also got flooded with all kinds of shady people: murderers, pirates, drug runners, terrorists, racketeers, kidnappers, mercenaries, sex workers and the list goes on...
Teenager
Vi started to get into fights - mostly with childs from the local prostitutes. The main reason was getting mocked for not having a mother, while she responded something mean about their mothers profession. The results were bruises, bleeding noses, sprains and even sometimes fractures for the young girl. So, she spend most of her time alone. That was the time, when she also discovered her fascination with singing - sitting alone in her room creating silly and insulting lyrics about the other kids, while consuming Synthetic Marijuana or alcohol.
"Probably a stupid legacy of "moms" artsy-fartsy side...".
When she realised she couldn't win most of those fights because of her physique, she advanced to framing the other kids. For instance stealing drugs and placing them in their rooms just before giving the "victims" a tip for some cash. Even though there is nothing known, she might also got into some serious trouble with adult men, while failing at one of her coups...
While growing up to a beautiful young woman, she learned basically every illegal practice out there from observing and listening to the locals in the bars, docks and cargo bays out of the shadows (or funnels). She even started to practice some of them herself: blackmailing, scamming, stealing, muling and so far and so forth.
The young thug got in a heavy argument with her father about her way of life, while she blamed him for everything. In the end it resulted in Vi's runaway as a stowaway on a freighter heading to Java Station in Tau 23. There she stole a basic Raven's Talon and took off into space.
Present
The seventeen years old layabout made her ship untraceable as stolen and invested a fortune in equipping it with the best of the best from the black markets across Sirius. Violet made this money by the using her skills in the only "professions" she learned about in her life and as an escort for all kinds of traders. She is also working on her "career" as a musician. "Vi and the Un-Liberties" just got released, but unfortunally didn't sell that well so far...
Personality
Violet is arrogant and likes to talk smack to pretty much everyone she wants. Vi also likes attention, be it the positive or the negative kind. Despite the fact not being the smartest person in Sirius she's quite shrewd. If Violet has a goal, she goes pretty much every way she needs to reach it - be it criminal, legal or anything between. Although the criminal way is most likely, because Vi prefers to cut corners whenever possible and she's just more familiar with it. Since Violet has no obligations to anyone, she's pretty much on the side which offers her the most benefits. Even though it might not appear like it, Vi is actually - most of the time - very calculating in what she does and says, always focused on her own advantage and needs. Overall a very annoying and conceited "brat". Based on her past she has an aversion for planets and feels much better being in space or on space stations.
Psychological Evalutaion
If Vi would ever visit a psychologist, they would probably find some mental issues in different phases. Most noticebale would probably be "NPD" (narcissistic personality disorder) and to some degree "ICD" (impulse control disorder), which shows pretty much everytime, when she opens her mouth and tries to push herself to the fore. Another would be some sort of "ASPD" (antisocial personality disorder), based on her obvious lack of empathy and will to socialise, as well as a superiority complex. There may be others, but probably less formed and because of that and the fact that Violet hasn't anyone close to her, they remained unknown so far.
