Origin

Audrey was a single mother and car salesperson in the small Maine town of Oak Valley. One Halloween, Oak Valley was turned into the arena for a last man standing tournament of killers. Each killer represents a powerful family; each family represents one of the original 13 states of the United States. Each family draws a weapon to give to the killer. The winner rules over the other 12 families. The civilians of the city are free game, and Audrey had run-ins with multiple killers, driving her more and more insane. After the Fox Mask Killer was killed by a civilian who forced her way into the game, the New York representative offered Audrey the chance to see her son again if she took possession of the sword and kept fighting.

2025 Killer Tournament

Since the rules of the tournament consider the weapon more important than the user, Audrey was able to become the killer for New York. She was ordered to kill her neighbor, Laura who had taken up the gun and inadvertently become the killer for Massachusetts. Laura initially refused to kill Audrey until the representative from Massachusetts gave her the brutal truth: that killing Audrey was the only way to end the game and if she did so the representative would ensure that Audrey's son and his babysitter would be taken care of.

Hearing this, Audrey threw her sword down and allowed Laura to take her out to ensure her son had a good life away from Oak Valley when the dust settles. In addition to her new identity documents, Laura received some for the boys as well. Xavi, the babysitter was her brother, and Audrey's son was her adopted son, both of whom were now in her custody.
