A Character profile I started but never expanded
Former Name
Sasha Grimmond

Age
65
Current Status

Sasha Grimmond (AKA The Widow) has been diagnosed with severe depression and has been placed in solitary confinement and the area locked down with only food and water deliveries at the main door to the area. These remain untouched for days at a time.

Events

The first of the events that lead to her current state was the death of her son whilst on a tour in the army. He was stationed in Helmand Province in Afghanistan when an American Helicopter attacked the base under the pretences that it was held by a terrorist cell. Forty five service men and women died and Mrs Grimmond went into a state of depression.
The second event that was a factor in Mrs Grimmond’s state was that of her daughter (Miss Bethany Grimmond). Her daughter first told her when she fell pregnant and this helped the mothers’ condition; the factor(s) that made her condition worse was that during giving birth the daughter passed away and a few days later the grandchild died as well. This caused Mrs Grimmond to go into a serious state of depression; not talking for days on end and not eating for even longer; her husband admitted her to the Blackthorne Institution.
After a few months at the Institute Mrs Grimmond was recovering well; however whilst out on a day trip with her husband they were attacked on their return to the Institute. Mr Grimmond was killed by the gang of youths and Mrs Grimmond suffered minor wounds to her upper body and arms. This has led Sasha Grimmond to become lost in her own grief. The Institute has deemed her unsafe for the outside world. This is due to her attacking patients and staff alike. She was placed in solitary confinement and the area was locked down. She has chosen to wear the black apparel of patients in solitary confinement and she wears her wedding veil now dyed black to show her unimaginable grief. Her cries of anguish can be heard echoing through the disused sections of the West Wing. Not even Dr. Aaaaaaaa will examine her.

Sasha Grimmond is truly lost.
