Background: Derrick Foster, also known by his native american name Akecheta, is born from a caucasian businesswoman and a native american man. He was made from one night of passion and his parents haven't had any real relationship since that one night. One of them is a hardcore businesswoman and the other a nature loving man who seems stuck in the eighties still. Derrick has always lived with his mother. She refused to let him be raised by his father and took on the burden of leading a lawfirm and raising a child on her own. Derrick never proved to be any trouble though. He is was a quiet child and a gentle person. He never showed any passion or ambition for anything really. On the other hand, he was always looking for excitement and challenges. Any type of game or sport he'd take on. It mostly stemmed from his routine suburban lifestyle that he liked thrills. But still he never went overboard since he had a decent sense of morals.
Contact with his father usually went smooth, though he saw him more of a fruity uncle, Derrick respected his lifestyle and because of him he took an interest in Biology. When his father asked him if he wanted to take on a native american name he gladly accepted. Akecheta, was his name. He didn't care for it much, although many of his friends found it pretty awesome.
He enrolled at the university of New York to study biology a few years ago, hoping that living on his own and getting out of the suburbs would lead to a more exciting life. Alas he was met with the same routine as always. After a while of making new social connections he found himself frequently at parties and other social events on top of that he'd started training Muay Thai. These two things made his life much more unpredictable and he'd find himself doing something at least every other night.
Cause of Death: On his way home from a gala, his cab was hit by a drunk driver. He was the only one to die.
