Ashlee Merritt

Unknown Past: Ashlee's past is a mystery, hinted at by her current situation. What went wrong that led her to the streets? Was it a broken home, addiction, bad decisions, or a combination of factors? Survival on the Streets: She has been working as a escort for an unknown length of time. She doesn't take credit cards or offer receipts because her income isn't legitimate. She is comfortable with subtly propositioning clients. Freezing Survivor: She has been outside for awhile and is freezing and grateful to see someone pulling in to pick her up. She has a small, faded tattoo on her wrist (maybe a flower, a heart, or a name) that is partially hidden by the sleeve of her jacket. It's a reminder of a life she once knew. She might have a specific "tell" – a habit or gesture that reveals her true feelings when she tries to hide them. She has a street name or nickname that is known amongst her peers.
