- OUTWARD PERSONA: Sweet, kind, and caring. Candy has always been a bubbly girl and maintains a happy atmosphere for show. Now that she's in prison though, she doesn't feel as obligated to do so. On the streets, she was to seduce men into paying for a night with her which gave her great practice at acting which was her childhood dream. Now that she's in prison, Candy is more standoff-ish and reclusive. But as soon as you become a friend with her, she will stick by your side through thick and thin. Especially in a place like this, where she is ten times as skittish as she was before.
- DEEPER DETAILS: This young woman has lived in torment for years. She had to break her standards down to get money and it tore her apart from the inside out. She doesn't like doing what she does, per say, but will try to enjoy the experience if nothing else. And that is what makes her hate herself. There is a lot of inner conflict going on inside this girl's head. Candy has trouble with faith, as well, but tries to remain loyal to her God.

- FRIENDS: Anyone she can get.
- SCHOOLING: High School Dropout
- HISTORY: Candace didn't always look 'pretty,' in her opinion. So when she did sprout all the right things, it felt nice to have people admire her. Dancing and partying became a nightly thing. Her parents weren't really there for her and she never formed the bond your supposed to form with your parents. And when her grades got too low and she wanted to drop out, they still didn't care. So she did. And was kicked out. Feeling alone and betrayed by her parents, she slept in the streets until someone offered her a place to sleep and earn money.
The offer sounded too good to be true. And it was. But soon, she got the hang of things. The early days were hard on Candy. Feeling like an absolute slut, she would often cry during sex, which would upset the clientele. So, she'd end up having to make up for it. After a while, she decided that it wasn't worth crying over. She might as well enjoy it if she's gonna be forced to do it.
Drugs were shared by her friends. She actually never took part in doing drugs but she did, however, sell them, and actually formed a friendship with a frequent customer of hers. Everything was going as smooth as possible until she was caught in a sting operation.

As she was in the house, she made sure not to leave without her sister. She never left Erica alone. Even though her brothers weren't there, anybody was anybody. She trusted no one with her sister's life. She slipped on a bathing suit, because she figured that's what he wanted to go to the falls and do, and wore black shorts and a white tank top over the bathing suit. She left home as soon as she could.
The walk to the falls wasn't very long, but she felt like she needed to get to Gunther sooner rather than later and felt that she needed to be with him. She just felt safer around him and wished for Erica to feel the same way around him. Erica and him hadn't talked much, because I kept her away from everybody, pretty much. She chose to stay away, though, most of the time. She was very timid around people, if you could call the men they lived with people. Alyssa despised them and didn't believe of them as people. Maybe devilish creatures in a person's body.
As she neared the falls, she heard the water. As she entered the opening, she saw Gun with his dogs and smiled. "Hi," she said to him and let Erica follow close behind. "You haven't seen her around much, but this is Erica, my little sister." Alyssa said, introducing Erica. Alyssa looked to Gunther and knew he wouldn't mind, but still felt a little timid around him. "Is it alright that I brought her?" Alyssa asked. If he made Erica leave, she'd leave. She loved Erica too much to let her go home by herself.
