I wanted to explain further into my inspiration of my game and go into detail. Criminal Minds is a really good show with excellent characters, interaction and had really crimes, suspects and so on. I have always been interested in crime, but Criminal minds got me interested in looking up real life inspirations behind those episodes. In each case, I have found the real life inspiration behind the episode to be more interesting. This is one of the reasons that I put Criminal Minds as an inspiration and the second one, is an episode was really interesting. It was only similar in the fact that the suspect or antagonist captured people who were on drugs and forced them to escape. He had no intention of letting them escape, as he was always going to kill them.

Why prostitutes? Why not make the character some pure holy character, who haven't made mistakes in their lives, gone down the wrong path or facing hardship every day? Because I do not believe in people that worthless human beings, and I think that everyone deserves to be safe. Poor people in general do not truly trust the police and you know why? I do not know about other countries, but this is because many times the poor are subject to police mistreatment. If you add mental illness, color to the mix you often increase the likelihood of being shot by the police. If you have children and are arrested, you will have your children taken away from you.

The police in my country will use any excuse to arrest people in hopes of curbing the crime, and it's called the 'broken window' method. It doesn't work, actually and it actually increases crime, not decreases it. The sad thing is that people forget about prostitutes until they are found dead. I think that prostitution should be made legal for a number of reasons, safety and to do that you need to see their hardships. What type of hardships am I talking about?

1. Pimps - These horrible men use, beat, hunt down, murder and take any money that the girl makes. This is on the verge of rape, because if they do not do as their pimp says, he'll hurt them. There are, also, crime groups that trick young women from other countries that they are moving into the United States legally and when they are there, they are trapped. Why? Because they do not speak the language and are afraid of being deported. I do not know how many women are in this country that face this issue. (To be honest)

2. Drugs - Yes, drugs are not a poor person issue to be honest, and why would it, no one can afford it. That being said, the women who are using drugs and are prostitutes live in a bad side of town, live on the street and sell their bodies for drugs. I do not know how many women that do this, most certainly not all of them, but there is a connection between prostitution, drugs and crime groups.

3. Being robbed, beaten or attacked - when you get into the car of a stranger, you are at their mercy and sometimes people who are not so nice do things that effect you. The more illegal things you are into, the more likely you are to be arrested, fined and that includes if you are the 'victim'. Once, a police officer gets something into his head, he doesn't change his mind and will not listen to anything you have to say. (I have nothing against police officers who try to help the situation rather than jump to conclusions).

4. Murder - The worst case situation is being found dead by a serial killer or killer or even drugs. To me, there are no worthless people and no people who are throw away, with little purpose. This is the saddest case, because it was so preventable and that means to legalize prostitution, legalize certain drugs and have programs that help people to give people a choice. I do not feel that prostitution needs to be illegal, because it actually helps in the long term. Which I will not go into, actually.

My two main characters, Elisabeth and Keisha are from two different lives, but have found themselves on the same spot of life. None of them are on drugs, each of them had a reason for running away from home and one has been a prostitute for awhile and the other one has just started. But the biggest difference between Elisabeth and Keisha is this: Elisabeth can not go home for reasons you discover in game and mostly, it is Keisha's pride that keeps her where she is. Each of the characters are very different with their back stories, so I guess the question of, "Why prostitutes?"

I love to use characters who are not always perfect or have done the right thing in their life. It doesn't matter if they are prostitutes or decide not to be. The true story is that story is about two young women and their relationship with each other. It isn't about men, their relationship with me, but these women lives. So, I do hope that this explains my reasoning behind my game, because I sick to death of "strong" women. These strong women do not seem to face any hardships, feel any emotion and in my opinion to be strong doesn't mean that you are not facing hardships. Strong women have weak moments, too and that includes sad moments, as well. It's like being brave isn't that you are not afraid of something, but your willingness to acknowledge your fear.

If you read this and still have your issues, please feel free to ask questions, but just remember that I do not have to answer. Thank you and have a good evening!
