Bianca Lopez
Bianca Lopez grew up in the bustling Glenville neighborhood of Cleveland, Ohio. Raised by her single mother, a social worker of Puerto Rican and African American descent, Bianca learned early on the value of perseverance and standing up for what's right. Her mother’s stories about helping struggling families inspired Bianca to use her voice to expose the truth and fight for justice.
In high school, Bianca excelled in debate and journalism, earning a reputation for asking the hard questions no one else dared to. Her inquisitive nature often got her into trouble, but it also won her awards for investigative reporting. She attended Ohio State University, majoring in journalism and interning with local newspapers, where she quickly became known for her sharp instincts and edgy reporting style.
Returning to Cleveland after graduation, Bianca landed a position as an on-the-ground reporter for Cleveland23 News. Though she’s still climbing the ranks, her determination and bold attitude have put her on the radar. Bianca thrives on covering high-stakes stories and refuses to back down, even when faced with dangerous situations. Her latest assignment? Digging into the rising criminal activities linked to the Heartless Killas gang and their mysterious ties to the chaos unraveling in the city.
However, Bianca’s ambition often puts her in harm’s way. She’s crossed paths with Detective Gamble on several occasions, usually after diving headfirst into a crime scene before the police even arrive. While the two often clash, her pushiness against his world-weary sarcasm they share a grudging respect for each other’s commitment to justice.
Unbeknownst to her, Bianca’s relentless curiosity and fearless reporting are about to uncover secrets that will entangle her life with the Night Reaper's dark mission. Will her bravery be her downfall, or will she become an unexpected ally in the fight to save Cleveland?
