New and need assistance!

10 Years Ago


I have had this idea in my head for a story that I want to write. Length is unknown I just want to get going and then see where I end. I pretty much have all of my characters figured out. Except for my MC!! So far she is a young woman (early twenties) she lives alone. She is going to have a smokin' bod, but I need her face to be disfigured and her life as a child to be miserable and traumatic. From there she will be placed into foster-care, which will be a little bumpy until she lands with a woman who shapes her teenage/young adult life. This woman dies but leaves an impressionable impact on MC and yadda yadda yadda. ANYWAYS. The part that I need help with:
 How did her face get disfigured? (Would really like the traumatic past to have something to do with it but not entirely necessary) I'm having a difficult time coming up with specific ways that this happens and making it original and believable.
Thanks for the advice in advance!
