So for the "book bag" that Isobelle has been established as having, I think it shall look like this. And for general size reference on a person, this is the size it would be

Name: Cameron "Dolla" Lopez
Age: 25
Faction: Firefly
Sex: Male
Appearance: He wears a dirtied tux while doing the Tryst's "Deals" But wears his usual 'thug' attire when in settlements or off job.
Equipment/Personal Belongings: Bug out bag of survival gear and an AK-74u with four mags. Has a mixtape that plays some of his songs when he needs to relax.
Personality: Very adaptible to the situation he finds himself in and can switch vernacular on a dime. But at heart tries to stay honest with the innocents.
Bio: Cameron Lopez was born to a large family in southern Los Angles there wasn't much he could do but try his best to be the good boy and try to fit in. But that was hard to do when his older brother (By 5 minutes) is a track team hero and his little sister being a beast on the soccer field, his other cousins were either in choir and band or if they were crazy would join up with a gang or something. He on the other hand tried to join the football team but couldn't meet the required standards they had and was soon kicked out, he dropped out of high school and moved to Murrells Inlet South Carolina to escape his family's judgment. He soon joined a gang called "Tryst" since they seemed to be chill, they also introduced him to his favorite plant Marijuana. Since then he kept a mellow mood and kept the group together for no other reason than they needed to pay rent and watch each others back. This changed obviously but that's fine, he had his plant and a gun along with some nice Nike's.
Strengths: Nice shot and smooth talker, but his best strength is his athleticism.
Weaknesses: He has an addiction to Marijuana and is a creature of habit.
*Living Family Members: So far none. Maybe his older brother Juan in New York but that's iffy.
*Quirks: Whenever he smokes his plant he starts practicing his smooth talking. Also won't smoke any of the laced stuff, messes up his groove a bit.
*Likes: His crop, his gun and his friends among the Tryst. His old white Nike's
*Dislikes: People who judge him for smoking Weed, anything with more than four legs.
*Worst Fears: Not having some Weed for more than four months
*Miscellaneous: I'll re work him if you guys find him offensive.

Permit me to observe that I don't think him being in the category of "Firefly" is entirely accurate, since he is, instead, in an oddly-named gang.

Also...where the heck did he get an AK-74u? Fireflies are more organized than this "Tryst", and they are stuck with hunting rifles and shotguns.

Also, how did the character make it cross coast to the other safe zone? It isn't like the civilians are given options or anything. The guy also has no real experience or survival training. There is little chance of group doing that in last of us never mind a single dude.

How is he even able to cultivate cannabis? The supplies needed to grow the stuff isn't readily available.

Alright, first off, thanks for putting it in a spoiler tag, helps things be decluttered. Now, things I want you to change before I can accept pretty much go as follows. Now, I can't really agree with his gang, as he can't be a Firefly and also be a part of "Tryst." Just so you know, it has been 22 years since the Cordyceps apocalypse in-game, so his bio can't work anyways. For example, you say that he ditched high-school despite high-school having not been in existence for the last 22 years, and your character being 25.

I also don't believe a tuxedo would survive 22 years of a Cordyceps apocalypse, nor would he be able to survive with it on, considering tuxedos are somewhat stiff and tear easily. Also, I feel like you could add more to his description.

Other than those, it looks good. I just need you to change his backstory in it's entirety, as it doesn't work with the background of The Last of Us. Also, I'd get rid of the weapon and the four mags, as even the military has to resort to M4A1s, and that's at their highest.

Name: Diego Maldonado
Age: 40
Faction (Civilian, Firefly): Scavanger
Sex: Male
Appearance: Height: 6'2"
Image

ImageImage

Equipment/Personal Belongings:
-Springfield M1903 bolt action rifle with 1 clip (5 bullets)
-Glock 22 with 1 clip (15 bullets)
-2 throwing knives
-Axe
-Gas Mask
-Bedroll
-2 cans of food
-3 bottles of water
-2 bottles of moonshine
-Goggles
-Clothing
-Red cloth
-Picture of him, his sister, and his parents, before the outbreak.
Personality:Generally acts rather carefree most of the time, but after all he's seen and been through throughout the years, he's not really as carefree as he sometimes seems, and often turns to drink when he can find some. That doesn't mean he doesn't have fun, or is never happy, he just has moments when it weighs on him. However, he is generally protective and cares deeply for the people who gain his trust and friendship.
Bio: Diego was born 18 years before the Cordyceps apocalypse. Before the Cordyceps became a problem, he lived a pretty normal life with his family, going through school, highschool, and starting college, though he was always bullied for dressing strangely and wearing goggles pretty much all the time. He was also in a alternative band with his sister and a few friends. Then, one day, while he was struggling through a day of college, the apocalypse started. He and his sister had always joked about what they would do if a zombie apocalypse started, but never did they imagine that they'd actually end up in one, or something basically the same. They had heard about some strange things on the news, but he was never prepared when 'people' started attacking his school and eating anyone they could get their hands on. He managed to escape through the confusion, just running away as fast as he could. He eventually made it home, but too late to help his mom, who had been killed trying to get to the car. However, he managed to find his sister hiding inside one of their trash cans, and escaped with her. They never discovered what had happened to their dad, who had been at work when it all started. They quickly learned in a world where the world is ending, you had to be careful who you would trust, and so, when they heard about places where they were gathering people to be safe, they stayed back. A decision they regretted many times over the next ten years, but one they stuck to. Over those years, they made friends and lost friends. Sometimes they'd find good food, sometimes they'd go hungry. Though as time went on, there was less and less food to find, and they had to go to more and more difficult places, and one day, nearly ten years after it all started, they got themselves in to a situation that they wouldn't get out of, not in one piece. They had gone hungry for long enough that they had become desperate. They scouted out a camp that belonged to a group of asshole bandit types. They had a good supply of food, and even their own garden, so they made a plan to sneak in and take some of that food for themselves. As you could probably imagine, things did not go as planned. In their hunger, they got greedy, and they got caught. They managed to fight their way out and escape in to the night, but his sister sustained a gunshot wound in the process, which quickly became infected. Diego searched desperately for some antibiotics, but in the end there was nothing he could do but watch his sister slowly die in agony. After he buried her at the base of a tree, as she had always wanted, he fell in to depression, but he continued on, as they'd promised each other they would if one of them died. He turned to alcohol, when he could find it, to dull the pain and loneliness. As time went on, it got better, though more and more life become more about just surviving than anything else. So he learned to find entertainment wherever he could. He was basically on his own for the next 12 years, never staying in one place to long, until eventually it came to this day.
Strengths:
-Experienced: after 22 years, he has become experienced in surviving outside of the safe zone. This helps him know where there are more likely to be infected, and how to handle them.
-Musician: Knows how to play guitar, and sings, which could potentially be used as a source of entertainment.
-Thin: After 22 years of struggling to find food, Diego has become used to not eating much, and so needs less food than others might. However, this has also lead to..
Weaknesses:
..Forgetting to eat: Diego will sometimes forget to eat, causing bouts of dizziness or weakness, if no one reminds him.
-Drunk: He will sometimes get in moods where he drinks a lot, causing him to be drunk. This affects his ability to aim, or make smart decisions.
-Undiplomatic: While he is far from a trigger happy, murdering psychopath, Diego isn't the most diplomatic person ever, and is more likely to offend someone than use any kind of diplomacy, which could cause issues if such a situation ever comes up.
-Colorblind: Not that bad of a weakness, but he is red-green colorblind.
*Living Family Members (include locations): None, other than maybe some distant cousin twice removed or something that doesn't matter and no one cares about.
*Quirks: Drinker, if that counts as a 'quirk'. Also gets excited by fighting infected. The more, the merrier, unless things start to get too dire. Will often shout things like 'Headshot!' in the middle of a battle.
*Likes: Trees, vines, cute things, tall things he can climb on, alcohol, dogs, goggles, licence plates, unique weapons, and headshots.
*Dislikes: Most food, people who would control others, talking about family, most drinks that aren't water or alcohol, being told to stop drinking, being stuck in a car for a long time, being idle for a long time.
*Worst Fears:
-Claustrophobia
-Afraid of being the last person left alive
-Losing any more people he cares about.
*Miscellaneous: Voice examples

If he has too many weapons, I can remove some. But I figured a scavenger who's been out there most of his life would have a few.

Well, I did have the character draw her knife, explain what to do and then sneak right up before giving a count down to take them out at close range. But I'd say roll with it. It'll create a bit of conflict between the characters. Although it might screw us over in the immediate aftermath. The OP implied that discharging a firearm right now might not be a wise move.

Hm... I.would say just get rid of some of his pistol ammo. Most of the characters aren't going to have much on them after prologue. Other than that, Accepted.

-Bedroll

-Picture of him, his sister, and his parents, before the outbreak.
Personality:Generally acts rather carefree most of the time, but after all he's seen and been through throughout the years, he's not really as carefree as he sometimes seems, and often turns to drink when he can find some. That doesn't mean he doesn't have fun, or is never happy, he just has moments when it weighs on him. However, he is generally protective and cares deeply for the people who gain his trust and friendship.
Bio: Diego was born 18 years before the Cordyceps apocalypse. Before the Cordyceps became a problem, he lived a pretty normal life with his family, going through school, highschool, and starting college, though he was always bullied for dressing strangely and wearing goggles pretty much all the time. He was also in a alternative band with his sister and a few friends. Then, one day, while he was struggling through a day of college, the apocalypse started. He and his sister had always joked about what they would do if a zombie apocalypse started, but never did they imagine that they'd actually end up in one, or something basically the same. They had heard about some strange things on the news, but he was never prepared when 'people' started attacking his school and eating anyone they could get their hands on. He managed to escape through the confusion, just running away as fast as he could. He eventually made it home, but too late to help his mom, who had been killed trying to get to the car. However, he managed to find his sister hiding inside one of their trash cans, and escaped with her. They never discovered what had happened to their dad, who had been at work when it all started. They quickly learned in a world where the world is ending, you had to be careful who you would trust, and so, when they heard about places where they were gathering people to be safe, they stayed back. A decision they regretted many times over the next ten years, but one they stuck to. Over those years, they made friends and lost friends. Sometimes they'd find good food, sometimes they'd go hungry. Though as time went on, there was less and less food to find, and they had to go to more and more difficult places, and one day, nearly ten years after it all started, they got themselves in to a situation that they wouldn't get out of, not in one piece. They had gone hungry for long enough that they had become desperate. They scouted out a camp that belonged to a group of asshole bandit types. They had a good supply of food, and even their own garden, so they made a plan to sneak in and take some of that food for themselves. As you could probably imagine, things did not go as planned. In their hunger, they got greedy, and they got caught. They managed to fight their way out and escape in to the night, but his sister sustained a gunshot wound in the process, which quickly became infected. Diego searched desperately for some antibiotics, but in the end there was nothing he could do but watch his sister slowly die in agony. After he buried her at the base of a tree, as she had always wanted, he fell in to depression, but he continued on, as they'd promised each other they would if one of them died. He turned to alcohol, when he could find it, to dull the pain and loneliness. As time went on, it got better, though more and more life become more about just surviving than anything else. So he learned to find entertainment wherever he could. He was basically on his own for the next 12 years, never staying in one place to long, until eventually it came to this day.
Strengths:
-Experienced: after 22 years, he has become experienced in surviving outside of the safe zone. This helps him know where there are more likely to be infected, and how to handle them.
-Musician: Knows how to play guitar, and sings, which could potentially be used as a source of entertainment.
-Thin: After 22 years of struggling to find food, Diego has become used to not eating much, and so needs less food than others might. However, this has also lead to..
Weaknesses:
..Forgetting to eat: Diego will sometimes forget to eat, causing bouts of dizziness or weakness, if no one reminds him.
-Drunk: He will sometimes get in moods where he drinks a lot, causing him to be drunk. This affects his ability to aim, or make smart decisions.
-Undiplomatic: While he is far from a trigger happy, murdering psychopath, Diego isn't the most diplomatic person ever, and is more likely to offend someone than use any kind of diplomacy, which could cause issues if such a situation ever comes up.
-Colorblind: Not that bad of a weakness, but he is red-green colorblind.
*Living Family Members (include locations): None, other than maybe some distant cousin twice removed or something that doesn't matter and no one cares about.
*Quirks: Drinker, if that counts as a 'quirk'. Also gets excited by fighting infected. The more, the merrier, unless things start to get too dire. Will often shout things like 'Headshot!' in the middle of a battle.
*Likes: Trees, vines, cute things, tall things he can climb on, alcohol, dogs, goggles, licence plates, unique weapons, and headshots.
*Dislikes: Most food, people who would control others, talking about family, most drinks that aren't water or alcohol, being told to stop drinking, being stuck in a car for a long time, being idle for a long time.
*Worst Fears:
-Claustrophobia
-Afraid of being the last person left alive
-Losing any more people he cares about.
*Miscellaneous: Voice examples

If he has too many weapons, I can remove some. But I figured a scavenger who's been out there most of his life would have a few.

Hm... I.would say just get rid of some of his pistol ammo. Most of the characters aren't going to have much on them after prologue. Other than that, Accepted.

Should I get rid of one clip? Or what?

I'd say two or so magazines. That's really only because of how scarce ammo is in the world, and how useful it is. I just want it to be a struggle for the survivors, as it is in the game.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.

I set it to one full clip (15 bullets) but I can lower it more if you want me to. I just figure 1.That gun is used by a lot of police, I believe, so finding ammo for it would be more likely. And 2.If they have to fight people, 15 bullets is gonna go pretty fast. But I have no problem with lowering it more.

No, fifteen bullets is good. I was just thinking about the length of time that has passed since the end of the world, and the military and Fireflies are constantly looting stuff everywhere. Will add you to the roster soon enough.

Alright :)
For some reason I read that as 'add you to the rooster'.
I'll make a second character when my brain recharges a bit for making a creative character.

Name:Nathan Clagger
Age:41
Faction (Civilian, Firefly):Civilian
Sex:Male
Appearance:Nathan is tall and thin with long brown hair. He's about 6'1 and weighs about 160. His eyes are a dull blue and he has heavy bags under his eyes. He usually shaves when he can as facial hair annoys him.
Equipment/Personal Belongings:
-Backpack
-One journal, pencil and ink pen
-Gas mask
-gloves
-hiking boots
-sleeping bag
-survival knife
-hatchet
-2 flashlights
-lighter
-camelback
-a cooking pot (used to cook and can be used to purify water via boiling)
-flint
-Remington .223 bolt action
-2 boxes of .223 ammo (he had 40 rounds but now he has about 20-30 rounds)
-Wears a camo hoodie, jeans, his boots and a button up red flannel shirt
Personality: Nathan is very quiet and calm. People might claim that he's depressed but he's not. He doesn't get angry very often but when he does he can be a force to be reckoned with.
Bio: Nathan was born into a world without cordyceps and he witnessed mankind's fall firsthand. He is from California, but at the time of the outbreak he and his family were in Mississippi visiting his cousins. He was 17 when the world fell and the harsh new reality took it's toll on the boy. He and his family managed to get to a safe zone in Meridian, Mississippi. They lived there for three years in relative peace. His father and uncles had willingly joined FEDRA and Nathan was planning on following his dads example. Unfortunately Meridian was attacked by bandits. Though FEDRA drove the bandits away the sounds of fighting had attracted a horde of clickers. The exhausted FEDRA soldiers were overrun and Meridian fell. Nathans dad and uncles died defending the compound. Nathan, now 21, took over as man of the family. He managed to lead his family out of Mississippi and into Alabama. The small group tried to find another safe zone, but they couldn't find one. Their journey took them out of Alabama and into Georgia, where after 2 years of wandering, they found a settlement. A small community of farmers in Georgia allowed them to settle with them and Nathans exhausted group gladly took up on the offer. Many of Nathans younger cousins did not survive the trip and some had run off on their own, Nathan doesn't know what happened to them. Nathan and his family lived on that peaceful settlement for 5 years. Nathan even married one of the local girls, as did his brother and his sister eventually married as well. All seemed to be going right for the family. But the new world is cruel and unforgiving, bandits learned of the settlement and attacked it. They overran the settlement and slaughtered all of the settlers. Nathan was out hunting and gathering food when the attack took place. That was probably the only reason why he survived. None of the settlers, his whole family included, survived the brutal attack. Now left with nothing Nathan decided to leave Georgia. The next 13 years of Nathans life were spent aimlessly wandering the state of Georgia and South Carolina, he eventually came to Murell's inlet where he is now leaving. Nathan is unsure what the future may bring, but honestly he doesn't really care.
Strengths: Strong willed, loyal, adaptable, focused, hardworking
Weaknesses: His hands sometimes shake (sucks when he needs to aim a firearm), he's very afraid of clickers (like he can barely function when he see's one), Can be a bit gullible sometimes
*Living Family Members (include locations): None
*Quirks: Likes to sing to himself and write or sketch in his journal, he can be superstitious and loves a good ghost story
*Likes (stuff like foods, sports or hobbies): Climbing, writing, music, hunting and fishing, drawing
*Dislikes (don’t say “zombies” or “Hunters.” No shit nobody likes them, try and think of something more personal): Crowds, small spaces, talking in front of crowds, cheese and mayo
*Worst Fears: Clickers, ghosts and the supernatural

Alright, that's another one Accepted. Will add you to the roster soon enough. I'll have you join the rest of the crew during my last post for the Prologue, which should be my next one.
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do.
