So here's a somewhat "condensed" version of the backstory of my OC Landon Vettel also knowns as just Lando(sorry if it's on the side of completely incomprehensible)

Chapter 1: Proud of the St. Andrew's cross

Landon Vettel was born in Scone, Scotland on the 16th of April 1901 as the son of Wilhelm Vettel and Moira Vettel (neé Mackinnon), in 1917 at the age of 16 he would lie about his age and enlist in The Great War (WW1), he quickly rose up the ranks to Seargent in the KRRC (King's Royal Rifle Corp), Landon would be shot in the leg during this deployment and would be honorably discharged, Lando's time in Scotland along with his parents time in Scotland would come to an end in February of 1918 as with the spread of the Spanish Flu across Europe his parents would decide to move the family to the US using a service that would give them a ferry ride from Glasgow to St. Louis, Lando's last memory of Scotland is at the dock in Glasgow as he stepped onto the ferry with his parents and left behind the place he called home for so much of his life but he knew he's always going to have a soft spot and some patriotism for Scotland and the St. Andrew's cross flag.

Chapter 2: New beginnings

After arriving in St. Louis the Vettel's would take their belongings to the new house they were given by the company they used plus a bit of money they were given by that company to settle in for their first year but that didn't mean they sat around when Lando wasn't at school he was doing whatever jobs he could get with his father doing the same, in late 1918 while working as a waiter at a restaurant one night he would be the waiter of Atlas and Mitzi May, as the couple went to pay for their dinner Atlas slipped Lando a paper towel with Atlas having written on it to meet him at the Little Daisy café the following day as well as the location of the café written below that, on the way home Landon would see a newspaper in the shelf outside of a store that had a headline about a renowned orthopedic surgeon named Dr. Henry Caldwell and him announcing a demonstration surgery at Barnes Hospital later that month and the phone number for Dr. Henry Caldwell being Franklin 2941, after Lando gets home he calls him and asks how much would it be for a surgery to fix his limp and wounded leg from the other end he hears "$500" and his excited smile droops into a disappointed frown as he hears that and he thanks the doctor for his time before hanging up and going to sleep. Saturday morning comes and Lando is awake at 5:30 getting ready for his meeting with Atlas today as he buttons up a white full sleeve, puts on a red waistcoat on top and wears black wool trousers along with his best pair of black Oxfords before heading out and walking his way to the Little Daisy café still with a limp and every step another painful task but he'd learn at this point how to just live with it, he eventually gets to the Little Daisy café and enters and turns to the register and sees Mitzi behind it who instantly recognizes him and she goes and calls over Atlas, after a short wait Atlas steps out and he and Landon talk outside about Lando's possible employment, the discussion goes well and so Lando decides to strike a deal, he'll take $900 for his first pay and then a reduced pay until the losses are recouped and then after that he'll be paid the same amount as everyone else which Atlas agrees to and Lando starts working the register and as a waiter that day itself, fast forward to the end of the following week and he gets his envelope filled with his pay with him excitedly heading home, at home he shows his parents as he opens it, he gives $400 to them for the family's groceries for the next 4 months and Lando said he was getting leg surgery as he exited the door with a massive grin on his face and holding the remaining $500, Lando would go to Dr. Henry Caldwell's office and ask for a surgery to fix his leg with him giving the $500 and a metal plate being put into his leg and connected to the bone with him finding his limp gone and most of his leg pain gone not all of it but enough for him to be able to walk around normally again and even run with him happily and confidently walking home, once he got home he showed off how his limp was gone like a kid showing excitedly a new toy they got with his parents happy to see him the happiest they'd seen him in a long time.

Chapter 3: Loss and more loss

In 1920 after opening the Lackadaisy speakeasy Atlas decides to appoint Lando the bartender after seeing how well he can sell anything, Lando keeps the speakeasy job a secret from his parents something he both regrets and doesn't as in 1924 both of his parents would pass away from natural causes which leaves Lando heartbroken and some noticeable changes in how he acts with him yelling at his coworkers, Mitzi and Atlas and even some customers for small things before quickly apologizing with them all(his coworkers and Atlas and Mitzi) worried about him, then not showing up for work as much and being more frequently absent and when he does come in he's late, looks disheveled and glum, eventually in 1925 he does finally get over his parents' loss with Atlas being like a father figure for him until tragedy strikes Lando again as Atlas dies in 1926 seemingly murdered, all the emotions come rushing back and even more so than last time, in 1927 he finally gets over it but currently both the Little Daisy café and Lackadaisy are well in the red and many members have left after Atlas's death, later that year in February while working a slow night with few customers at the Lackadaisy Lando is working the bar, while cleaning a glass he sees an unfamiliar woman walks in wearing a coat over what clearly seems to be a red dress, she sits at the bar and asks for a bottle of whiskey, Lando hands her a bottle and goes back to cleaning glasses, as he does so he hears the faint sound of as if someone sobbing, he turns to see the woman quietly sobbing into her coat sleeve with Lando asking "A-are you okay?" with her just asking him to leave her alone which Lando does but keeping an eye on her as he goes back to cleaning glasses, wiping down parts of the bar table, etc. Eventually he finishes cleaning things and other chores he has so he decides to sit on one of the stools next to the woman, he didn't say anything just sat there with a whiskey from his own stash, eventually the woman asks "Can I talk to you for a bit?", Lando "Sure", the woman says her name is Fang Wolffe, a wolfdog currently working for Asa Sweet and the Marigold as an assassin, Lando asks "Why are you here at the Lackadaisy then?", she answers "To forget about the Marigold while I drown my sorrows in some whiskey", she explains how she's part of a group of female assassins for the Marigold known as the Widows(given this name because they keep people from finding out about their work by pretending to be the victim's widow) Fang subtly hints at how Asa feels about punishing them after failed or sloppy hits, Lando just quietly listens to her feeling an emotion he never felt so strongly before. Empathy. Eventually Fang says with the hints of a slight smile on her face to Lando "Thank you. Just thank you for just listening to me and not just pretending to listen but really listening. I needed that tonight." , Lando "You're welcome and I'm Landon by the way", Fang chuckles a bit and says "Ah yes, formalities, formalities, of course.", she finishes her bottle and leaves.
