They managed to escape Chicago and gathered in a community of survivors in south Illinois. For a few days Clint seemed to have found a safe heaven.
The day came when a group of raiders came to the community, demanding supplies in exchange of protection. The raiders were heavily armed, but so was the community this resulted in both groups engaging in a deadly firefight where most of the community was destroyed and both groups were left with almost no people. The sounds of gunfire attracted infected and all hell broke lose, Clint's family was killed during the battle, right in front of him. This scared him severely, and he began to heavily drink.
Clint escape with a few survivors and together tried to survive.

Clint has been wandering around the region, seeking for any purpose and just trying to survive. Now he recently decided to enter the Chicago area in search for anything of use. He knows nothing of what awaits in this hell of a city.

DENIED for not reading the OP. 32 Days have passed since the initial outbreak, not years. Picture is obnoxiously large so please put in a SPOILER. How much ammo do you have on your person?

Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2017 6:34 pmName: Leonard (Leo) Wheeler
Nationality: American
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Age/DOB:21 (04/08/194)
Pic/Description: Leo has a thick muscled build, he has dark blue to indigo eyes and thick wavy black hair about four inches in length. He has fair skin and white teeth with both upper canines slightly crooked causing a pointed tip. He has high cheek bones and a pronounced jaw and brow line with a roman nose. He is 6'3" and weighs 220 lbs.
Occupation: He is a part time student, and full time oil field worker
Immunity: immune
Equipment: two large wrenches, large back, solid tough clothing including boots, hardhat red in color, large knife and a first aid kit, not to mention several cans of Copenhagen
Skills: CPR, Limited first aid, physical strength related tasks, stamina and endurance related task, mechanical related tasks are relatively easy for him, excellent under stress, able to drive large trucks and most tractors and heavy construction vehicles
Weakness: Difficulty with computers, difficulty with social situations, honest to fault it will require him to be protecting someone, he has lost focus on survival to a degree and only extends his life to end more infected.
Personality: Friendly and feels a responsibility to help others in need, he has some trouble articulating his thoughts and emotions and acts more than he speaks, however when given time and opportunity he is surprisingly insightful. Sadly the sudden and terrible deaths of his loved ones has made him much colder and grimmer than he was before. He maintains a sort of noble wish to help others, but now more often than that his thoughts are filled with the idea of killing as many infected as possible. It may be worth noting he occasionally pitches a quip or pun at himself or others to try and make himself calm down, this is almost like a little echo of his friendly pre-outbreak demeanor.
Likes: helping others, honesty, fairness, acts of compassion, physical work, killing the infected
Dislikes: tech, liars, cheaters, thieves, criminals, people he consider selfish, infected
Fears: failing someone who depends on him, losing friends and loved ones, having to rely on computers or on other people,
Bio: Leo was born to a working class family in rural Nebraska, he grew up with his father working from before sun up to after sun down in the oilfields near their home and his mother doing the same but at Leo's school. As soon as he could
help out Leo found himself working as a ranch hand and did many odd jobs after school. At sixteen Leo entered part time help around the oil rigs his father worked at, with little time to do anything besides work the young man became incapable of taking a part in the more common aspects of his peers lives.
Unable to enjoy as many social experiences Leo grew very close to those he had bonds with. Close friends were like family, and his family was like an extension of himself. So when his sister went to Chicago for a scholarship program, he took extra shifts driving trucks to and from the city to get a chance at visiting her when he could. His entire family got an opportunity for time away and took a week long vacation in the city nearby his sister's school.
To his horror, they stayed in Chicago at the worst possible time. When the attack occurred, Leo's father was killed while protecting the family, as the others fled his mother was severely injured. Leo resolved to try and get himself and his mother and sister home as soon as possible.
As the city turned on itself under lock-down the going became slower and slower, until finally they reached his Semi-truck at his company's warehouses. Yet as they attempted to leave the city they were stopped and even attacked by national guardsmen. His mother dead Leo fled back into the city with his sister to try and find another route.
Nine days after the attack and Leo and his sister were still trapped in the city. They hid and avoided others as best as possible but when supplies dwindled they were forced from hiding like many others. Deciding to stay together the pair wandered through a massive city almost entirely unknown in layout by them. They did as best as they could to avoid groups of others, but they came in contact with infected very early on on the 9th day. Leo's little sister was attacked and severely injured by one such individual. Unable to stop her from being injured Leo killed the attackers and rushed his sister as quickly as possible to the first emergency center he came to. Carrying her in he found the ambulance raided and the station abandoned. Doing what he could with what he had Leo only prolonged the inevitable, and slowly over the rest of the day, Leo stayed by her side as she died.
Leo was broken. For a week he simply sealed up the Ambulance Depot and buried his sister in the only way he could, with incineration. Simply snapped. He set out into the city, while helping other living souls when possible, he has grown somewhat colder than before, and has set only killing more and more infected, and if he ever discover those responsible, them as well. Leo has met a few others since the Ambulance depot and has learned what he can about the situation from them but he has ceased his attempts to leave Chicago. Perhaps because he wishes to die, or maybe because he wants a reason to actually live.

Posted: Mon Feb 20, 2017 1:00 amAlright, so me and Beia have gone over a few things and created a new monstrosity.
•BursterPrevalence: Uncommon
Danger: High
After a modified strain of infection changed the usually regulated intake of alkali metals, Bursters are now literally biological time bombs. After being wounded, or of their own accord, they will detonate their massive internal supply of highly reactive metals, resulting in an explosion similar in force to an HE grenade, along with a 30 meter spray of viscera and boiling internal fluids, resulting in liquid burns on this skin, thus infecting individuals through burns. Appearance is typically that of a normal person, but with obviously infected and bloated lymph nodes. The longer these Reavers remain infected, the larger said lymph nodes get, the more alkali metals they ingest, and thus, the more powerful an explosion.

Nationality: American
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Age/DOB: 24 April 22nd, 1992
Pic/Description: Short but stout, with green eyes, and long brown hair. He has muscular build, but his limbs are pretty short.
Occupation: Hitman, just kidding, he's a laborer/worker
Immunity: none
Equipment: mask, backpack, 2 water bottles, a box of trail mix, a can of chicken noodle soup, kitchen knife, pocket flashlight, 2 spare batteries, and a sleeping bag.
Skills: Building things, using tools, etc.
Weakness: He didn't get an education, so he's not very smart, nor is he very fast. Not trusting.
Personality: He's generally funny and nice, if he trusts you. He tends to be a very suspicious person.
Likes:
Dislikes:
Fears: He has pyrophobia, so fire.
Bio: Christian grew up in a small apartment in western Chicago. He had no siblings. His parents were poor, and barely had enough money to send him to school, where he got bad grades. He picked fights to vent out his frustration. He was constantly at the counselor's or principal's office. He switched schools twice. His fear of fire comes from when he was only 4. A kitchen fire broke out he got a very bad, very painful burn.
When he was older, he dropped out of high school, and got a job waiting tables, and over the weekend doing random odd jobs all day. He did this for about a year and half, until he could afford a tiny apartment for himself. He was given a job by a construction company, where he mixed cement, paved roads, etc. Only a month later, the virus broke out. He was one of the lucky ones. He survived. His parents didn't. And so he left the city for fear of being infected. He ended up in the outskirts where he was forced to stop and make camp. He's been scavenging around since.

Groups is in Sears Tower, CFD Clinton, Midway International Airport, Echo-6, and Wess Bunker. The first three have potential Infected problems. Echo-6 is broadcasting as a safe zone. Most people are likely to head west to Echo-6 at some point. OP has a events list for Day 31.
