Biography/Personality:

Piper's parents divorced when she was ten and, due to the circumstances at the time, Piper's mother won custody of the three children.  Piper and her mother never got along and finally Piper's father, Baylor Marshall was able to get two of his three kids back.  Piper is an action kind of girl and likes to go.  She is tough, sometimes crude, and can take care of herself. 

Piper and Gable were raised in New Orleans, Louisiana in the Bayou. They aren't Cajun at all but most all their friends are. They were raised in a poor environment with their mother and little brother and the child support money from their father went towards skating. Piper considers herself very much in tune with her Cajun side though.

Other Noteworthy News/Facts:
