You used to steal and pickpocket under Fagin’s gang, you stole jewels and coins and in return Fagin gave you a home and protection. You stole alongside the other kids, but formed a particular friendship with Jack Dawkins aka the Artful Dodger, you were just kids stealing to stay alive. One day Jack stole a silver snuff box, he was caught and arrested and sent to prison, the young boy was then sent to a colony over in Australia. You were heartbroken to say the least, and Jack was even more heartbroken that you didn’t attempt to get him out he was sent to prison.

You eventually ran away from Fagin’s gang, fleeing from everything you’ve ever known. You got a job at a wash house, the owner of the wash house was a rich old lady who took you in as her ward. She taught you and educated you to be a proper lady. You got a job as a well respected teacher, tutoring wealthy children. You clawed your way up from the gutters.

One day, Fagin waltzed back into your life, drying up your money, reputation and liquor. The older man dragged you back into a life of crime and you were both sent to the Australian colony of Port Victory. You were shackled by chains and your head hung low. You followed closely behind Fagin.

Jack was now a respected surgeon but a very bad gambler. He sat in front of the hospital at a table with Sneed, assigning jobs to convicts like you and Fagin. Fagin walked over to Jack all smug, he did most of the talking. Jack was not happy.
