Background Story:

 - When Eva was 3 her parents moved from Fortuna to Zoness, in pursuit of a new adventure. Eva had no other siblings but enjoyed her time with her mother and father.

- Living on Zoness became very expensive as it was one of the most tropical and most luxurious planets to live on in the Lylat System. Her family struggled to get by financially but still remained happy.

- Eva's mother and father both passed away when she was 13, leaving her almost nothing to live off of. She was forced to live off the streets of Zoness, learning some very handy survival skills. Eva wore a special mask to hide her true identity from places that she had to steal from to survive. She had a reputation amongst the rich communities and was wanted by the authorities.

- Eventually, some caught on to her and started to hunt her down. One day she was forced into a corner and this was wear she ran into Drake. 

- Drake had noticed Eva before and had become interested in her. She was merely a survivor but with a true motive to live and do better. This made her strong in ways she likely did not know. So Drake offered to take her in, and help her get on her feet.

- Eva eventually became brave enough to take off her mask and trust Drake. She then got a job for a rich lady cleaning to help Drake pay the bills.

- They grew close and became attracted to one another, and so they started to date. This was when Drake's mysterious side of him came out. He was a part of the Hot Rodders gang, the most ruthless of all the gangs in Lylat. But he was trying to get out, trying to do something good with his life. Eva was very understanding and helped him as best she could. But leaving the gang caused quite a ruckus, and the leader believed that Eva was the reason one of his best men left.

- A year or so passed, and everything appeared to be alright. Drake and Eva were married and had a very small wedding with close friends. Not long after, Eva became pregnant and the two were very happy. This was not meant to last. 

- A threat from the gangs leader, Carrion, came to Drake, telling him to come back to the gang or Carrion would personally kill Eva and their unborn son. But Drake refused, so Carrion waited and bided his time.  

- On the night of Falco's birth, Drake was being tracked down by the Hot Rodders. Forced to flee from their home, Drake and Eva drove off to the next city over. Closely being followed by the gang, Drake dropped Eva off at what appeared to be a small house. Drake kissed his new born son and his wife one last time before taking off and ultimately sacrificing himself, giving Eva time to make sure their son would be safe.

- Eva had to be quick, the gang was after her too. She wrapped Falco in a blanket and placed him in a basket in front of the door. She knew who lived here and arranged for Falco to be cared by an elderly lady. Tears streaming down her face she kissed him on the forehead before ringing on the doorbell and fleeing into the dark.

- Eva mourned the loss of her husband and took what money she had and fled to Corneria.

- The year passed and Eva watched her son grow up the holos..first starting out as a ruthless Gang Member and then slowly grow into a hero. She was so proud..but at this point she figured it was better to stay out of his life.. for fears that she would be rejected. 

- Decades later, Nova had found Eva on Zoness when she was rebuilding her empire and surprised Falco a year later.

- Eva and Falco had a wonderful reunion and while she still missed being able to be there while he grew up, she was so happy to be with him again.
