Background
Education and Sport Shooting
Right out of education in Winthorpe, Clover tried to immediately turn her interests into jobs. The first of these was acting, which was mostly unsuccessful with her only appearing in one student-budget action movie. The director, with all his unrealistic expectations, asked Clover to practice actual firearms and martial arts techniques in order to appear more realistic on camera. Unexpectedly, Clover ended up being naturally extremely proficient in firearms. She entered whatever competitions she could, which became her primary form of income for a while. For this period of her life, she always had a decent amount in savings (and could easily win more if she would ever start to run out).
Relocation
Around the age of 22, Clover relocated to Offetstine from her home just outside Winthorpe. She ended up moving into a flat above a small abandoned retail property (which she later also purchased, 'just in case'). From here, she spent about a year trying to break into the music industry by selling tapes of her mediocre electronic music at the local market. This ended up going absolutely nowhere.
Serial Killings
In mid-1993, A childhood friend of Clover's was falsely accused of being the perpetrator of a series of murders around the city of Hallingmere. She attempted to investigate matters herself and found (what at the time seemed to be) conclusive evidence proving her friend's innocence. Despite this, when she broke into the court centre mid-trial to get the evidence seen, it was dismissed for rather obvious reasons. Her friend ended up with a Whole Life Order, and Clover herself almost given 18 months before a last-minute change of mind.
Private Investigation Career
Early days
After a few months of planning, Clover converted her flat into an office and set herself up as a private investigator. Despite this being a strange job for such a small town, she eventually gained a reputation as a professional who always carries out quality work. This led to her earning enough to live fine without her target shooting income. During this time especially, she often took trips to Hallingmere to walk around what were once the crime scenes and thought about her mistakes. By now the investigation had re-opened and re-concluded, with the real killer being found shot dead in their home. Unfortunately, Clover's friend had been murdered in prison days earlier.
Chiennes d'Armes Affiliation
In autumn 1994 Clover was approached by Dia Silver, another long-time friend and leader of the Chiennes d'Armes (an extremely small local criminal organisation, only even really able to function alongside distractions such as the Coalition). Dia proposed that in exchange for Clover letting her use some spare storage space for a few months, she would give her discounts on certain goods and other favours. This arrangement essentially put the two back in touch for the first time in years, and they ended up being close friends once again (with a highly-inconsistent intimate side thrown in). Throughout this time, Dia occasionally mentioned her half-demon nature but Clover kept writing it off as a joke.
Coalition and Vampirism
In early 1996, Clover investigated a murder on behalf of Modeste Daniau which closely involved the Coalition. This led to Clover learning of the Coalition and demi-humans, as well as eventually becoming a vampire and wasting an incredible amount of energy hopelessly attempting to flirt with Modeste.
