WANTED CONNECTIONS.
➥ collecting a debt: as rosaleen is tasked with enforcing shamrock business, she is often the leader of the pack when sent to collect a debt. you may be able to hide now, but certainly not forever. ➥ fighting rival: someone who’s intimidated by the stiff competition rosaleen brings to the ring. she’s been fighting in underground circuits from the moment she could, so she has plenty of experience under her belt. but hell, she notices the fight they give her.
DIGGING DEEPER.
TRIGGER WARNING:Â violence, blood, parental death
life is never easy for a child born into a world engulfed by flame. rosaleen is born only a couple doors down from where he cousin, tadhg would join her in the world. the war that revenged their country made pretty clear that ireland was not their home, no matter how much she wanted it to be. it certainly wasn’t home when it took her parents. thus, she’s left to fend for herself – clinging to whatever memories she can and her mother’s locket dangling from her neck. she bolts the first second she can, out of fear that anyone could get too close – but not before leaving behind a method of contact for her younger cousin. even if she was not by his side, if she could not take him with her: he would always have someone in this world. she may not have had the means to take him with her, but she would get him there.
she ends up in devil’s elbow completely by chance, slowly gaining funds through using her knuckles. she’s never been trained, never been taught – just an extremely gifted fighter. she joins a circuit, earns a couple of days worth of winnings before eventually vanishing, onto the next town once she get bored. they never see her again. that is, until she reaches the dates and is offered a proposition by the shamrocks – become one of them. make a life here, with us. a short time later she’s able to bring tadhg to devil’s elbow, just as she promised, bring him home. but, she does determine she wants him as far away from shamrock business as possible.
as rosaleen begins to climb the ranks, she becomes far too used to the taste of blood. the sounds of anguish. she stopped wincing a long time ago. her ascension stopped at soldier for a while – something she didn’t seem to mind. she was fine taking orders and following through with them. that is, until the sudden retirement of their enforcer just as she entered her thirties. as expected, she was quick to step up to fill the void without even thinking. now, she was deeper in with them than she had ever been before.
she began bartending alongside fighting at hells gate around three years ago ( considering the amount of whiskey she finds herself consuming, it was only a matter of time before she engaged in the business of selling alcohol ). even if she’s not the greatest saleswoman who ever lived – truly as far from it as you could get, it’s become a great tool to gain knowledge she may not have otherwise in her position. drunk people really do how to run their fucking mouths, especially when asked the right question.
some call her a monstrous being, a 6'3 blonde with a snarl that insights fear into even the strongest of individuals. frankly, she’s inclined to agree with them. relishes in it, actually. however, when she isn’t working at either hells gate or with the shamrocks – she’s looking after her cousin with an uncharacteristic tenderness. she presently resides in a an abandoned building that she has since converted into a livable home in burnington. it’s isolated enough where she can find some amount of peace, but close enough to where she can get to town in a walkable distance.
EXTRAS.
tadhg flanagan: younger cousin/basically her brother. 100000/10 would kill for him without even hesitating.
colt buckley: cat + mouse flirtation. rosaleen is definitely attracted to him, but enjoys the chase a little too much.
finn o'brien: hookup.
