I am back, and I have another character that I've been cooking up, so I hope y'all like her.
Tags: Cold, Relentless, Two-Faced
Backstory:
Ingrid Russo, a Italian immigrant, did not have the most warm welcome when she came to America, having been indoctrinated into crime in the Harlem and Bronx area. It led her into joining the Mendoza Syndicate, starting as a enforcer, making sure people pay their 'protection fees'. Her loyalty to Mendoza was undying, and her ruthless and cutthroat tactics made her shoot up the ranks in no time, now becoming the woman Mendoza relies on the most.
As of recently, Ingrid has been getting bored of doing, in her eyes, meaningless tasks for Mendoza. She feels as if everyday is the same now and something needs to change. Something like... a new change in management.
When Mendoza gives Ingrid the task of summoning the patrons to expand his empire, she agrees without hesitation. Little does he know, Ingrid is going to use the patrons against him and overthrow him to make herself the new boss of the Mendoza Syndicate. She believes she can turn this stagnant syndicate into something more powerful with all of New York feeding at the palms of her hands.
Abilities:
(1. Action Express) Instantly reload your weapon with a new mag of action express cartridges which will increase its velocity and cause bleeding on hit. If you land a hit on a enemy, the bullet will ricochet and hit any nearby enemies to the first one you hit. (Mind you, this will only last for that one mag, and if you reload it will cancel it)
(2. Takedown) If a enemy is close enough, you can perform a tactical CQC takedown in them which will disarm them for a significant amount of time.
(3. Mendoza's Mark) Send out a hit on a enemy if they are in your line of sight, which will expose their location to your team. It will also lower their bullet and spirit resistances and slow them slightly.
(4. Reinforcements) Call in some of Mendoza's goons to help out your team. You can instruct them to either push lanes or farm souls for you. (For example, once you activate it, you can press whatever you have your abilities bind to in order to instruct them. 1 to push yellow, 2 to push blue, 3 to push green, and 4 to farm. I hope I made that make sense)
Character design:
Ingrid has short black hair, specifically a Italian cut. She lost her eye when she was a rookie but that never discouraged her to quit. She dresses simple but still sharp, with a red neckerchief for a little personal touch. She doesn't like suit jackets because they feel too stiff to wear, so she usually only wears a white buttoned shirt with some brown suspenders, along with some khaki colored men's trousers and black loafers.
Her weapon, The Lackey, is a custom nickel plated Colt M1900 with a elongated slide and engravings fitted onto it.
Ingrid is cold and calculated, only focused on her goal to overthrow Mendoza. She's very vague and hold her cards close to her chest, not wanting anyone to figure out her plans in case they just so happen to be in cahoots with Mendoza. She can also be pretty petty, where she'll just speak in Italian when she doesn't to talk to them anymore.

Interactions:
- Ingrid actually shows some respect to Apollo, admiring his confidence in his capabilities.
- Holliday warns that Ingrid should watch her back for showing her face out in public, implying that she would take her in as well.
- Infernus tries to be polite to Ingrid, but she tells him to just focus on the ritual.
- Ivy expresses how much she abhors Ingrid, saying she's worst than Mendoza for willingly following him and doing what he says.
- Mo and Krill also try striking up a conversation with Ingrid, since they have worked together before. Ingrid reluctantly tries to be nice but it's very clear she doesn't want to talk to them.
- McGinnis tries to relate with Ingrid, thinking she too is only does her job because it pays good, but Ingrid swiftly shuts her down.
- Ingrid and Shiv have a very complicated past, both business and personal. If Ingrid kills Shiv, she admits that she did love Shiv at one point in her life.
- Silver expresses her frustration that she can't take Ingrid in because she's under Mendoza's protection. Silver tries to get into her head by calling her names, like 'Mendoza's pawn' and 'his little errand girl'.
- Vyper looks up to Ingrid, and asks if she can work for her sometime, which Ingrid reluctantly says she'll 'consider it'.
- Ingrid is actually good friends with Wraith. Wraith is the only person who knows of Ingrid's plan and warns her to be careful of what's to come after if she succeeds.
- Ingrid and Yamato show mutual respect to each other, despite being in rival crime families.
