Dorothy is a twin who was born to a couple of alcoholic losers. Alice and Dorothy’s father soon left after they were born, but their mother stuck around. She wasn’t the nicest person when she was sober, but when she was drunk; it was a different ball game. The twins would be tortured, beat, starved, & locked in closets for weeks. The only way the girls survived was because of their bond to each other. They would tell each other’s stories about magic, and fantasy lands. One day, after they returned from their "fantasy land", they had an idea. Torch the apartment..Starting with mother dearest bed.
After that, the twins were raised in orphanages. The few attempts to place them in Foster Care were failures. In time, the girls grew up.
Dorothy became a brilliant student. She got a good job, and found the perfect man to marry. He was the owner of the company she worked at. The two got married, and Dorothy moved Alice from the institution she was in, into a penthouse in the Reveston Towers.

When Dorothy was accused of killing her own son, the twins ran. Using money that was used as a pay off to Dorothy, the twins built a fantasy playland beneath the Earth. Alice became Mother Grimm and started to recruit children to populate her Eden. Trying to become the mother she never had. The sisters would soon clash. Dorothy became the villain known as Cyanide, a persona to use as revenge to her ex husband and his new wife. Alice couldn’t bare the truth so she exiled Dorothy from Eden.
