Chance Edwards [Deceased: Victim of Homewood Massacre] Overview Overview Chance Edwards is the manager of the Natural 20 Gaming Cafe in West Baltimore, specifically in Gwynn Oakes. He used to be a regular barista at House of Joe on Eutaw Street but was hired by the owner of said gaming store and hasn't looked back. The store itself is quickly becoming a fixture in the community for both gamers and community involvement. Rumor has it the owner is a believer in Outreach, and Chance is more than happy to oblige. After all, he knows what it's like to have nothing and be completely on his own. It's something he wouldn't wish on anyone.

December 5, 2001 R.I.P. May 3, 2024 Hair Brown Eyes Dark Green Race Caucasian Nationality American Height 5'10" Build Athletic Gender Cis Male Face Claim Shawn Mendes Dark brown hair with dark green eyes. He's average height with slender, athletic build. He's attractive, but strangely unaware of it. As a teenager, he had really terrible teeth and acne, and could never afford a really good pair of glasses, so he always felt awkward and ugly. History History Mortal Life His parents were teenagers when they gave birth to him, his father seventeen, his mother fifteen. At first they lived with Chance's maternal grandparents, but the couple did not get along and Chance's father was kicked out of the house for not being able to keep a job and spending too much time partying. His mother was not any better, not ready for the burden of motherhood, so Chance spent a lot of time with grandparents that weren't interested in raising another child.His father ended up getting arrested for drugs, his mother ended up on the streets, and they became sporadic, unstable presences in his life. His mother would get her shit together every now and then, make an effort, and then lose it again. When he was six, his father showed up, claiming to have changed, and took custody of Chance. Only, as it turned out, he just wanted government subsidies for having a child, and Chance was just as neglected among them. Worse, they were poor. Chance began acting up, resorting to theft to get what he wanted. He was good at it, only got caught once, and because he was young, they were lenient, and he never got caught again. When he was 9, his father died after stumbling out of a bar drunk and into the path of a drunk driver. He was sent to live with his mother and maternal grandparents again. It wasn't long before his mother found a new shitty boyfriend and left him there with his grandparents. His grandfather died of cancer when he was 13, and he suddenly found himself the caretaker of his grandmother, who had health issues of her own. Despite all this, he managed to keep up decent grades in school.He enrolled in Baltimore City Community College after high school, since the family couldn't afford much more. His grandmother's health declined severely so he dropped out of school after the first year to take care of her full time. When she passed away, he surprisingly inherited life insurance money. It wasn't much, there were some debts that had to be paid, but it was enough for him not to be completely destitute. His mother tried to convince him it should be hers, an argument that ended with her current boyfriend and him getting into a physical fight, and he hasn't spoken to her since.During his time caretaking for his grandparents, one of his few outlets was gaming and the community he found there. Instead of going back to school, he jumped at the opportunity to work at the gaming cafe, quickly getting promoted to a manager that usually worked the evening/closing shifts.Vampire UnlifeChance caught Julien's attention and their connection inspired Julien to make Chance his first childe.
