Parker

Parker is a master thief and important member of the Leverage team. Put into the foster system at a very young age, she is socially awkward, but is slowly overcoming that with the help of this group. In the meantime, she is an extremely important aid to the team. Parker had a difficult life, being put into the foster system at an extremely young age. She was bounced from foster home to foster home, most of which are implied to have been abusive in some way, and she rarely had any time to interact with other children her age. In one of her many foster homes, Parker began her life as a thief. Her abusive foster father took away her favorite toy and told her she'd need to be a better thief to get it back. She blew up his house (according to commentary, her foster parents were not inside at the time) after retrieving her stuffed rabbit and walked away. She began to steal in order to get what she wanted or needed.
