Personality: Cris is very quiet, preferring the company of the various forests he's roamed rather than that of people. Though he may be quiet, he will never hesitate to act first in a situation where his life would be in danger. His military training has prepared him for any circumstance that he may come across, which gives him a seniority complex over those he has the unfortunate opportunity to travel with.
Bio (one paragraph at least): Christopher Anderson was born at Sanford Children's Hospital on July 18, 1979 to David and Shannon Anderson. Growing up, David Anderson worked as a full time mechanic while Shannon worked as a receptionist for Sanford Children's Hospital. Christopher attended the Centennial Elementary School in Bismarck and graduated to Horizon Middle School. It was during his 8th Grade year when he gained interest in serving in the United States Military, particularly, the Air Force after recruiters came and introduced it.
He also joined the Horizon Huskies Football team and continued to play until he graduated and moved on to Bismarck High School. He began encountering trouble and fell into the wrong crowds, and eventually got banned from BHS, transferring to Century High School in his Sophomore year. He began training with Airmen from the Grand Forks Air Force Base, and eventually refocused onto his grades after leaving behind the negative influences of BHS. Christopher graduated with a 3.8 GPA with the Class of 1997 at Century High School. A few months later, Cris joined the U.S. Air Force. After successfully completing Basic Military Training, he was stationed at Grand Forks Air Force Base and began work as a structural engineer. In 2005, Christopher ended his career in the Air Force achieving the rank of Technical Sergeant.
Three weeks after he came home, his father was killed in a car accident. It was revealed that his father had been drinking when he plowed into the other car. His mother Shannon, was thrown into a deep depression, one that had to be corrected with drugs prescribed by her doctor. After mourning his father's dead, he continued his work as a structural engineer, working for Greystone Construction Company, choosing to stay in his hometown of Bismarck. He also served as a Part-time Firefighter with the Bismarck Fire Department. In 2008, he met Ashley Samson, one of the architects working with Greystone. They began dating. In 2010, Ashley and Christopher became engaged. They moved in together in Christopher's house. In early 2012, Christopher proposed to Ashley and it was around that time that it was announced of Ashley's pregnancy with Cris's child. On December 24, 2012, Bryan Clarke Anderson was born. Finally, in 2015, tragedy struck. After refusing to take her pills any longer, her depression rushed back in, becoming so strong that Shannon Anderson killed herself in her home on March 6, 2015, only four days after quitting her pills.
In 2016, as the epidemic began gaining traction, Bismarck was relatively safe due to efforts of Bismarck Police, both Air Force bases, and North Dakota State Troopers. As time continued on and the epidemic grew larger and larger, most of the North Dakota law enforcement had been either become overwhelmed or simply forgot about Bismarck. The infection quickly spread through Bismarck, with those few infected first being first responders. With such little time to respond, the previous evacuations of Bismarck were entirely unsuccessful, and the infected attacks finally reached the Andersons. During an attack made by abominations at the Anderson's house, Cris tried his best to keep them away from his family, using his military training, guns and ammo, though he failed. He watched as his wife and son were devoured by the infected while trying to hold the front door closed as infected pounded on it. After clearing his house of the surrounding infected, he gathered his survival gear, his shotgun and a majority of the ammo, and abandoned his home. During his initial trip, Cris used most of the ammunition to put down the infected in his neighborhood, causing him to flee into the forests behind his community. Christopher Anderson now scours the woods around Bismarck, trying to cut out a living in the desolate world he once called home.
