Name David Weber
Age 39
DoB 16 OCT 2008
Place of Birth Mayfield,KS
Appearance
Bio
Until the Fire of Heaven, David was well on his way to a life on the wrong side of the law. Petty vandalism, joyriding and other nuisance crimes were his forte. The most recent juvenile court case directed him to participate in a Scared-Straight program at the Underwood Correctional Institution, the local prison. While he was there, the Fire came. The sudden breakdown in the guard’s control of the prison resulted in a prison riot that lasted several days. The youths participating in the program barricaded themselves as the riot progressed.

The riot came to an end when an alliance of surviving prison guards who hadn’t fled and a more moderate faction of the convicts led by a former marine succeeded in taking control. The “New Warden”, as former USMC Gunnery Sergeant John Francis, instituted a harsh system of punishment for anyone who challenged him. With order restored to the prison, John Francis found the youths and helped them try to contact their families. With a number he was unsuccessful, including David. With nowhere else to go, the youths became his wards and he began ensuring their place in the prison’s emerging society.

A jailhouse preacher by the name of Benjamin Veo began giving sermons to the prison calling the Fire of Heaven the Rapture. According to his preaching, the righteous had been called to Heaven and the damned sent to Hell. Those who remained were too weighed down with sin to go to Heaven but were not beyond redemption, that by acts of righteousness they could release themselves from their sins and earn their place in heaven. David found a new meaning to life in the burgeoning Church of Redemption. Within a few years of the Fire the Church had been officially endorsed by Warden John Francis, who worked with the theology of the Church to further socially engineer the population. Three weeks after David turned 18, Warden John Francis declared the formation of the Order of Brothers of Repentance in Mayfield, or the Knights of Redemption. David immediately signed on.

Over the next years the portions of Mayfield nearest Fort Penance, as Warden Francis had renamend the prison, became among the safest with raiders and slavers steering clear lest they run afoul of the former convicts-turned semi-religious military order. David eventually was selected to become one of the KoR’s rangers, soldiers trained directly by the Warden to operate independently away from Fort Penance. While out scouting Mayfield he met a young woman named Katie who was living with a small tribe in a shopping center on the far side of Mayfield from Fort Penance. David would make frequent stops at the shopping center.

Three months ago, a raider band rolled through the east side of Mayfield. The shopping center was one of the targets they hit. David arrived to find the aftermath two weeks after the attack. He informed the Warden and, against orders, went in pursuit of the raider band. Although pursuit of the raiders has remained his primary focus, he has been periodically distracted by others in need on the road.

Personality David is a paladin of the wastes. His code is iron bound, and he does not allow breaches to stand before him. Raiders and slavers are the lowest of the low and deserve any punishment he decides for them (often death, though if he has time and assistance, crucifixions are not an uncommon decision). While he prefers to strategize and approach any given situation tactically, he does not give a second thought of putting his own life at risk to save an innocent. He is extremely religious and a devout adherent of the Church of Redemption.

Name Chesed Piper
Age 23
DoB December 13th, 2024
Place of Birth Ruthvile
Appearance Head: http://fr.web.img1.acsta.net/r_640_600/ ... 688424.jpg (withour beard and moustsche)
Clothing: Winter Berkut-pattern camouflaged Gorka-5 suit, with layers underneath to keep even warmer
Head: Black toque, though Chesed wears a green two-hole balaclava which only exposes his eyes and his Gorka suit's hood when temperatures are too cold
Torso and arms: Light variation of a Khaki Smersh webbing to carry ammo and other essentials, OD day pack on back, black wool gloves
Legs and feet: Black holster on right leg, black Gore-tex combat boots
Bio Chesed Piper is a young, compassionate, and merciful Israeli-English man born to an English father and an Israeli mother. Unfortunately, his mother died shortly after birth due to complications. Despite becoming horribly depressed, his father Maxwell took up the responsibilities to raise Chesed on his own in the safety of his hometown. He left it to his friends to take care of his son when he went out to scavenge for supplies with his gun, typically returning home with sufficient supplies. With the help of his friends and his son, Maxwell managed to keep his spirits up and care for Chesed.

Life went on as normal as it could until Chesed turned 18. In August 2037, Maxwell unfortunately succumbed to a pack of raiders while out scavenging. Once he learned of his passing, Chesed fell into a deep depression, often isolating himself for days on end. Naturally, he got over his horrible feelings, and swore to himself that somehow he'd do what he could to make a positive difference. He figured it was what his father would want, and he didn't plan on didsapointing his legacy.

Nowadays, Chesed with his first aid skills, compassion, and his weapons is out to make a difference, no matter how small or big his actions are in doing so. He refuses to make or watch anybody suffer, but also refuses to stand watch as what he considers the evil in the world to terrorize the innocent.

Dislikes: People Chesed considers evil or otherwise bad, extremely cold temperatures, overly heavy weapons

Name Drake Brown
Age 24
DoB 2023
Place of Birth Burlington, ND
Appearance Drake
Bio Born miraculously after the fire form Heaven to Bradley and Heather Brown, Drake was raised to be a tough and independent person. His mom passed after giving birth to his sister Hailey when Drake was 7. His sister didn't survive even two weeks. Drake and his father grew extremely close. His dad being a Marine before the Fire, Drake was taught basic and advanced survival and combat skills. Drakes dad's prized possession was his fathers (Drakes grandfathers) M16 for when he was in Vietnam, after the war his grandpa bought the weapon from the Military in a civilian configuration and kept it with him for his entire life, Drakes grandfather passed a few months before The Fire and the rifle was passed down to Dukes father. The M16 was the main source of food. Drake went hunting with his dad almost daily to get the food to keep the duo alive.

Once Drake turned 20 his father finally succumbed to the harsh elements. His dad died at 43 due to an extreme shortage of food and a very cold winter. Drake continued to live in the same small house that was granted to him after his fathers death. He's lived in it ever since and has established himself as a survivor of these harsh winters.

Drake has had to defend his home against his fair share of aggressive scavengers and raiders, although killing others isn't very common in his life. He faces threats with a grin on his face and a bit of crazy in his eyes.
(I can add a bit more if needed)

*grey is optional
Likes/Dislikes
Likes: Guns, jokes, being outside
Dislikes: Cowards, hippies, People who hate the M16

New Austzeland, Fridur, you are both accepted. Fridur could you tone down the amount of ammo you have, one 20 round mag would be fine, not three. Bullets are hard to find nowadays.

The archives is were accepted app and some miscellaneous stuff will be put once I get around to creating it. To be honest school and other things have zapped the amount of free time I have so it the IC wont be up for a while, that and I have come to realize that my ability to OP is rubbish. If worse comes to worse this will either go on hiatus or be reedooted sometime in the future when school and life are much more forgiving.
