Brief History: Growing up in the Lot has its perks: extended family, abiding affection and a spoon fed eduction on the brutal nature of politics. None of which were of real interest to Izzy save Gran, a blind devotion to her mother and close lipped Uncle Roy. Despite genuine love, they were unable to stop the young girl from becoming a holy terror. Literally. The parish priest heard enough confessions about her to keep a keen eye on the girl. At least until she packed her bags and set out for the wide world, making it to greater New York. She can be found at any number of pool halls and poker tables, seducing her share of wayward desserts. Tasting all, keeping none. On the way she's developed an eye for body language, critical when deciding whose ego has outstripped their talent. Easy to justify a little theft with bonafide skill when growing up under the shadow of the IRA. It's a job, one she happens to be very good at.
