Dwight's story
Dwight grew up in the relative inner city setting of New Bremen's slums. He had a difficult childhood due to the psychological trauma of seeing his father and older brother gunned down by drug dealers as the family was out for ice-cream one sweltering night. This formative experience might have muted Dwight's voice, but it also put a drive into him to outlast any adversity and protect those whom he considers his own. It was because of these two impulses that Dwight focused on the constructive pursuits of athletics and body-building when other kids from the neighborhood were getting into trouble with gangs and drugs.
Dwight was just about to go pro as a body builder, and look into working as a stuntman in the movies when his mother came down with cancer. This tragedy has caused Dwight to remain in the New Bremen area and delay his plans of 'making it big' as he cares for his mother and tries to scrape together enough money to help foot the mounting medical bills. Just recently, he has been given an offer to bodyguard at night for a charming businessman, and make great money doing so. This gives him the flexibility to care for his mother by day, while his other brother works, and also contribute to the bills by working nights. The best perk is that the rich guy actually wants Dwight to continue working out and getting ready for the time that he might be in the movies, so he doesn't have to sacrifice as much as he thought he would.
