Basic Info
Name: Callandra Clyne
Age: 15
Appearance:

Will go a bit overboard on the number of pictures, because I can't just choose my standard 3 with her.

Personal Items: Whatever the hell she wants, really.
Weapons: Probably any gun she wants, too, if they have it.
Location: Colorado State Capitol, Denver, Colorado
Bio: Callandra, like many others, had grown up in this world. She seemed naturally made for it and acoustomed to it. In fact, she oddly....basked in the ways of the world. Even though she has no recollection of what a stable society is actually supposed to be like, she doesn't seem to be entirely a fan of it. At least, just being a random worthless person in the game of the world. She has more fun with the idea of playing with power than simply being a random individial in the world. Though seeing chaos in said world seems to appeal to her. She doesn't really care about anything or anyone in it, not really feeling like intervening in any of the things going on about in said world unless it benefits her or is something fun to bother with, for whatever reason or other. The world seems like a practical playground to her. Nothing mattered to her, and she felt no reason to strive for sanity in the world, and safety for everyone and everything. It was just the way things are, and she didn't really give a shit.

She did, however, have family just like anyone else. Though she always found parents, well...restricting. Nonetheless, she grew up with the fascination of the military inside the previous Quarantine Zone that she had been a part of, before leaving for...reasons. If the world had been "normal", she wanted to be a fighter pilot. Hell, if she could be one now, she probably would be. She also had developed a fascination with...power in general. She always had this feeling of being superior to other people, that she was smarter and better than the lowly people with their small minds. That included her restrictive parents, who she always had felt were just holding her back in life. They didn't want her to join the military when she could, or do really any of the things that she had wanted to do. So what better way to relieve herself of such restrictions then by, well...let's just say that her parents had been found dead, and she was long gone by that point.

Eventually, after having run away from the previous Quarantine Zone that she had been living in and going about her normal life in, wishing she could be one of the soldiers with authority over other people, she ended up running across another Quarantine Zone, and immediately decided to take up residency. They seemed to be pretty willing to let her in as well, to her relief. It didn't take her long to decide to cozy up to those that were in charge, because now she was free of restrictive parents and could do whatever the hell that she wanted. They seemed to accept and appreciate her help, so that also made it rather easy for her to do so. Of course, her whole existence and story was pretty much a fake and made up, with a story of her parents "dying" and all that.

As time went on, she somehow got very close to the higher ups, likely with her advice to help with their ruling and all that, and eventually, the leader had to resign for some reason or other, and he gave the power over to her. This seemed to not be entirely a smooth transition of power, as some others close to the old leader were surprised and siappointed that they wouldn't be in charge themselves. But here she was, in power. She hadn't expected this to happen so smoothly, but it did. She had got to about the best position that she could possibly expect to get to, and now she had authority to do what she wanted. Which, so far, she mostly just changed laws and whatnot, to the benefit of teenagers. People seemed...weary and questioning of her leadership, which was understandable seeing as she was 15 and now for the older people, passing a bunch of unusually young laws to the benefit of people her age and younger. But she had so far been a surprisingly good leader. So far...

Voice: Maisie Williams
Blood Type: O-
Height, Weight, and Body Type: 5'0", 104 pounds, small, petite body type. So short and small.
Personality: She is pretty much a bit of...everything, really. She is a cheery, fun loving person when it seems to fit, like partying or hanging out with people in any way that she could or something. But if the situation fits it, she can be the complete opposite, being very dark and serious, and not afraid to do whatever has to be done with whatever the situation might be. Is quite friendly and social a lot, but again, unless she is doing a 180 on her personality in appropriate situations. Can be quite flirty if the situation fits for something like that, though it is usually if someone else starts flirting first that she indulges in flirting, but not always. Has a "Live in the moment" mentality, and is a realist, not afraid to say her honest and truthful opinions on what their situation is. Is pretty honest in general when it comes to it. Enjoys making jokes and messing with people, typically making jokes while messing with them. Sometimes messing with them is her making fun of their stupidity or something like that, depending on the situation (There's a lot of "Depending on the situation" in her personality), As mentioned, she is honest, so if she thinks you're dumb for some reason or other, she'll probably tell you. Can be a bit quirky sometimes with her odd comments/insults/whatever that might not make much sense to anyone. Likes to have a good party here and there, but isn't the type that would want to party all the time. In some ways you could also say that she is a bit of an introvert and an extrovert at the same time, sometimes preferring alone time, though probably more extrovert than introvert solely because too much loneliness gets to her. Can have a bit of a superiority complex at times, depending what type of people she is around. Pretty much finds anyone in her age group (meaning 13 to 18) attractive, and even further than that as well a lot of the time, but doesn't mean that she's gonna appreciate you more because of that. Tends to like giving "advice", which isn't really your typical advice probably, and telling various different stories of her past. Honestly, she's whatever she needs to be in any particular situation, and she utilizes this quite often to her benefit.
Skills: 1.Skilled manipulator (In many forms)
2.Skilled at seducing too if needed for some reason.
3.Surprisingly seems to have a natural skill at leading, even if for her own personal power game reasons.
Strengths: 1.Quick at adapting
2.Quick learner
3.Generally very tough and strong when needed. She wouldn't be one to go down gently. She'd likely tkae many people down with her in the process...In more ways than one.
Weaknesses: 1.Getting too caught up in the whole "hungry for power games" thing may end up ending very badly for her if she doesn't play her cards right, and it going to her head may make that a possibility.
2.She's very small (5'0"), and isn't particularly very strong or in shape, which may disadvantage her (Of course, being small has its advantages, too)
3.Can't really make actual real connections with people, which may be a problem. She may seem like she cares, but she really doesn't, and isn't really capable of doing so. Nor does she seem to put effort into doing so, because she has no reason to do so.
Fears: Probably the biggest and only real fear of hers is losing the power that she had worked so hard to get into.

Apparently I'm working on moving my new characters to the new format before my older ones. My new ones a part of the new group plot thing.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Vivian Iverson
Age: 17
Appearance:

Personal Items: 1.Backpack, which she hoards some supplies in that she presumably hid somewhere in case some of it was confiscated (even though most of it she got on her own accord through, say, her "job"). It almost seemed like she held onto it in expectation that all good things must come to an end, and that she might need it to quickly grab a bunch of stuff, because that's why she held onto it.
2.Pocket knife she, uh...let's say, "took" at one point.
3.A tiny bit of medical stuff that she happened to get from someone who seemed rather fascinated by her music playing, and wanted to give her something special for her talent. She wasn't one to object.
4.Guitar.
5.Some music sheets she either found, or was given, for lyrics or guitar playing themselves.
6.Clothes she owns are simply what's on her back, presumably what she wears in the appearance pictures.
7.A bit of alcohol, oddly enough.
8.Some random strips of cloth.
Weapons: None currently.
Location: Colorato State Capitol, Denver, Colorado
Bio: Vivian had of course lived her entire life in the apocalypse. Her parents had actually met as soldiers. They had been protecting the Quarantine Zone, and met each other and fell for each other, and eventually, out comes Vivian. For a few years at that point, her mother stayed home to take care of her, but her father never stopped protecting their home. But after a while, her mother went back to it, too, when she was old enough to be taken care of better, or could be watched by others in a reasonable manner, like going to school or something, whatever form of school that they had there.

A few years later, though, both of her parents never came back from an outing, going on a supply run or some such. They had been killed, and now she had been orphaned. She was, understandably, rather upset for a while, but she oddly took it well. She seemed to grasp how reality worked, and accepted that it was probably inevitable that they would die. Everyone would be lucky to live through all of this, and not die at some point, after all. So them dying early wasn't that big of a surprise. But she knew she'd do the best that she could to live for as long as possible, and hopefully, keep their name alive.

Throughout the years since her parents died, she pretty much just stayed at an orphanage of sorts at the place for kids that were found who had presumably lost their parents, getting to know some of them, but never seeming to manage much in the way of friendships with people there. She had pretty much been alone since her parents died, really, beyond the small friendships. She tried to keep herself occupied in whatever way she could, though, but there was only so much you could do. However, she never really got bored, and seemed to manage okay.

She ended up taking on a liking for music, learning to play guitar, and to sing. This is what she ended up taking on as her job here, really, entertaining the people there with her surprisingly good singing voice and surprisingly good guitar playing skills. Sometimes, she got lucky with extra giving donors, and she was never one to deny a gift, because why not? If someone wanted to give you their life savings, who was she to turn it down if it could be beneficial to her? Yes, maybe that meant she was also selfish at times, but other times she could easily make it up by being selfless, and out in the real world, they would find her selfishness be replaced with her likely saving their ass in the future. She was pretty sure that others wanted to do more than simply give her gifts, usually the social rejects who were socially awkward and missing things in their life, so a beautiful girl with a beautiful voice and beautiful guitar playing captivated them in more ways than one.

Oddly, she never apparently got training from her parents, her parents maybe being a bit hopeful in that department that she would never have to worry about it by being the safety of the walls, hoping for her to live as normal of a life as possible inside of the safe zone. Of course, that may have been a grave mistake, because all good things came to an end eventually, but so far, the Quarantine Zone was staying together...for the most part. If anything happened, it would be from inside conflict more so than outside conflict.

Voice: Uh...again with no sources.
Blood Type: A-
Height, Weight, and Body Type: 5'6", 131 pounds, pretty much just average in every way in body type.
Personality: One of the more notable things people find about her tends to be the fact that she's a rather big smart ass, seeming to sarcastically reply to people on a regular basis of they happen to say something ridiculous that deserves scrutiny. Or just in general. She also tends to crack a lot of jokes, oftentimes in the worst situations, and a lot of the time, they can be rather dark jokes. Doesn't really matter what it is to her. Some of the times, though, her humor seems to be a cover up for an inner sadness, likely about her parents and having been alone for a while now, and maybe a bit of mostly hidden depression somewhere within her. She seems to have a strange personality in general, not just in the sarcastic joking sense. On top of everything, she tends to be rather blunt, too, and honest about the situation that they are in, oftentimes mixed in with her sarcastic, joking nature. If she thinks you're stupid, she might tell you to your face. While all of this may give the impression that she's just a jokester at heart, she's not by any means weak and careless, and in fact, she's rather tough, and seems to be able to mentally cope with doing whatever is necessary pretty quickly, and adapting to the reality of things easily. It wouldn't take her long to be able to realize that the best option in a scenario is to go brutal and to have to kill people, despite having no experience with such things, likely having been mentally prepared for such a thing from her parents. So despite her joking nature, she can be deadly serious if needed, and when she's in this element, she can almost be scary at times. Isn't above occasionally using her appearance to her advantage, if said person finds her attractive. Only to a certain extent, though. If it benefits her and gets her something, well, might as well use it to her advantage.
Skills: 1.Hand to hand combat to some extent from over the years.
2.A bit of gun knowledge, but not enough. Not as much as she wished that she had. She might end up learning, though.
3.Guitar playing
4.Singing
Strengths: 1.Similarly to Callandra apparently, knows how to adapt fast
2.Also knows how to learn fast, because apparently super creative with strengths, skills, and weaknesses over here.
3.And apparently tough and strong minded as well
4.Can keep things light with humor when needed.
5.Copes well in general, even if it may be to hide her being upset underneath.
Weaknesses:1.Can sometimes get overconfident, which in the real world, could be the difference between life or death
2.Her jokes may at times backfire, which could be bad if with the wrong person
3.Her lack of combat skills may be a problem in the future.
Fears: Getting raped. She doesn't fear death. In fact, she accepts it will be a thing that will happen eventually, if she likes it or not. But being raped? That's a terrifying fear to her, which is understandable, but it may be amplified in unnecessary situations to be scared of it. She generally has a fear of tough life decisions, as well, but that doesn't really count making the hard decisions as, say, for example, a leader, as she's pretty good with that. Or, what should be said, would be good at that, since she hasn't had to make them yet.

Name: Isobelle Rothstein Smith
Age: 13
Appearance:

Personal Items: 1.A hood that she wears a lot, usually as warmth, though oftentimes just because she feels like it (First picture)
2.Likes putting her hair back, so she carries stuff to braid her hair with her a lot, oddly enough.
3.Basic clothes in general underneath her hoodie like thing.
4.Leftover seeds she didn't notice she left in her pockets.
5.Random pretty necklace she was given at some point in time, which she always wears.
6.Book bag
7.Presumably some book inside said book bag.
Weapons: None
Location: Colorato State Capitol, Denver, Colorado
Bio: Isobelle is a friendly, and kind young girl, the world not seeming to dampen her personality all that much. She's always interested in helping others out, oftentimes being out there helping people who just came back from hell to cope, trying to comfort them in the best way that she can. She seems mature for her age, knowing well of how to be a sort of psychologist in a sense when it comes to ways to help people deal with some drama in their life or to deal with what they had to do on the other side of the walls. Oftentimes she surprisingly has the answers to whatever it is that is a problem. However, when it comes to her own coping, she doesn't seem to know how to take care of herself very well, when it will come to the real world and such like that. She seems to be strong minded in her own way, but will likely get weighed down with the world more than others, because she won't be able to adapt to it quite as easily. Seems to be clever in her own way as well. Too good of a person for her own good in such a world as this. Seems to get overly attached to people too easily, especially people that she starts to like. She was always attached to her brother, because they've been close for ages, but there are other people she quickly got an attachment towards as well. Doesn't hate easily.
Bio: She was rather fond of family, family being one of the things that was most important to her. So she had always been very close to her parents, and her brother. But whne her brother started to get into some bad habits of stealing and putting himself into danger, she felt saddened by her brothers behavior, and she did her best to try and get him back on the right track, because she didn't want her brother to get hurt, or worse, get himself killed with those boys that he hung out with. Eventually an incident happened that, thankfully, ended that abruptly, though sadly it involved a couple of the boys getting killed. Thankfully, it wasn't her brother. She had known already, her own form of intelligence being able to connect the dots, and just being observant in general, but it was good for it to end. And she did threaten him a bit to stop.

When it didn't come to just being a young girl to the best of her abilities in such a world, presumably going to school and such, she helped with gardening, something that she became rather fond of. She seemed to be a fan of getting down and dirty into the dirt, and had a love for plants and tending to them. And she would admit, a boy that she met while helping in that department did tend to lend to her liking of the job. She had a bit of a crush on him, she had to admit. Well, to herself. She never told her brother, nor anyone else. And especially not Lyle himself. No, that would be extremely embarrassing. But her odd social behaviors tended to come out when she talked to him, so for anyone paying attention, it was kind of obvious. Likely her brother already knew, even if he didn't say anything, because if there was anyone that knew her best, it was her brother, just like she knew her brother.

Eventually, after the above situation, she introduced her brother to the line of work, though he never seemed crazy about it, preferring to do other things. However, he got to know her friend, Lyle, which was nice, and they seemed to get along well. Any time they talked about the Fireflies, she wasn't hugely fond of it, because she always felt they caused more problems than any good, but she just let them talk anyway and tended to plants, trying not to think about it. She did fear that her brother had fantasies of joining said group, though, and if he went into that territory, she would give him a resounding no in protest at the very idea, because that was just going into a different territory that she had just got him out of.

5.Having been overly sheltered from the real world in general due to being inside the safe zone her entire life.
Fears: Losing her brother...and maybe Lyle T. Sorenson too. Dying, because she's got quite a big fear of death. Getting truly attached to someone then having them taken away from her.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Lyle T. Sorenson
Age: 13
Appearance:
Lyle is very meticulous when it comes to hygiene. This reflects in the way he appears and the way he dresses. For whatever reason he wants to look presentable, even in death. He's quite tall for his age, has milky white skin, blue eyes, and blonde hair, thus the moniker he uses. His fashion sense is pretty decent, and consists mostly of button-up polo shirts. He currently wears a red flannel, a blue windbreaker over that, black jeans and shoes, and a trapper hat. Something he can't go without are his black eyeglasses... (You'd wonder where these kids are getting those..)

Personal Items:
Having lived in the CSCQZ for quite a while, Lyle has gathered quite an amount of supplies. He's got gardening tools, fertilizers, all sorts of materials which are necessary for what he loves to do. Lyle's got all sorts of orchids, fruits, and vegetables, of which he contributes to the Quarantine Zone's food supply every harvest. He also has a complete hygiene kit and lots of back-up supplies stowed away in his mattress. His clothes are kept in a tall cabinet near the door, ready to be pushed over in the case of a break-in or breach of security.
Weapons:
Lyle keeps a ceramic knife at hand at all times. He found it at an old supermarket and picked it up. He can operate guns, but doesn't have any drive to hold or own one.
Location:
At the Colorato State Capitol Quarantine Zone in Denver, Colorado.

Bio:

Lyle's life song is 'Gun In My Hand' by Dorothy. Mainly because he was forced to kill his own parents in the midst of his young brother.

But before all that, everything was fine. Lyle and his family lived in Eastern Colorado. His father and mother were Dutch and Swedish respectively, having been living in a totally English-speaking environment most of their lives. The Sorensons inhabited a larger QZ in the Eastern parts, but eventually had to leave the damn place after the military was crushed, allowing the smugglers to take control of the whole establishment. Unwilling to involve themselves with the rest of the lot, especially now that they had two sons to care for, mommy and daddy Sorenson moved out in the dead of night.

That was a bad idea though, since they both died as a result of that act. First, it was Lyle's mother, who was bitten several times on different parts of her right arm while she shielded her sons from a mutant. She killed the mutants, but was now infected, so she asked Lyle to end her life. Lyle didn't want to do it, but his mother forced him. Literally. After that, Lyle left the gun as he was dragged off along with his younger brother by their father.

Halfway out, their father just staggered and dropped dead. He was infected, apparently, by spores. Lyle, knowing what he would have to do once again, ran and hid. But their father was already quite ready to bite managing to find them easily, and if Lyle did not act quickly, he or Noah would get bitten too. So Lyle, using his father's own rifle, shot him as well. After that, he was never quite the same again. He was only 9 at the time, and his brother 7. Due to these events, the boys both became quite resilient and responsible when it came to real world matters. And battered but not broken, they trekked all the way to Denver with almost no words to share.

Neither of the boys knew what was at the state capital. It just happened to be the closest settlement from their own. And they sure as hell weren't turning back now. So they pressed on with all their strength, and fortunately succeeded. Within the vicinity of the city though, the boys find that there is nothing for them. The city is deserted, crawling with mutants and men who would have no qualms at maiming and killing a pair of kids. So they hid. They moved, and hid. It was a pretty good routine at first, until they made a mistake and got caught by a bunch of soldiers with tanks. Real tanks.

Scared, but they didn't show it. The Sorenson boys stood and raised their arms as they were asked and stepped out of the clothes shop they'd been hiding in. The soldiers seemed surprised, not having expected to find a pair of youths, and pretty brave ones at that. After a bit of talking amongst the soldiers, Lyle and his brother were loaded onto a truck with some armed guards. They were transported to the CSCQZ, one of the last one of its ilk in the whole state. The whole sight of seeing so many people in a controlled environment was at first overwhelming, but Lyle and his brother adapted quickly.

It was good that one of the soldiers that had found them, a woman named Bethany Doyle, was willing to take both boys in. She owned an apartment unit which was in fairly good condition. It was her behavior that made Lyle keep things clean at all times. Both he and the Lieutenant kept the apartment tidy at all times, and she allowed Lyle and Noah to do whatever they wished, which was gardening.. Noah enjoyed cars more however, and often hung around people who had them, learning to fix and clean them as he grew up. By the time that the leadership changed, Lyle was an experienced and recognized farmer, and his younger brother was the youngest mechanic and engineer working for the QZ. He's also an excellent cook.

Voice: Jacob Hopkins
Blood Type: AB+
Height, Weight, and Body Type: Lyle's pretty tall for his age, at 5'2". He weighs 105 lbs., quite skinny.
Personality:
Very insightful, timid, and clever, although a little eccentric. When in combat, he can be pretty ruthless, and is not scared of death. Lyle has a lot of fears and peeves that could make him difficult to be around, but sometimes his random comments and observant and inquisitive nature can be extremely helpful in different situations. He's also probably autistic, but no one's really noticed. A testament to how much Lyle has change is that he does not want people to refer to him or his brother with their real names, calling himself Fairfax and his brother Lionheart.

Skills:
Lyle is an excellent farmer and is very good at cleaning things. He's highly observant and a good strategist when it comes to having to hide, run, or attack.
Strengths:
He’s very smart and vigilant, has a lot of skill and experience in basic human needs, has a green thumb, and is fairly calm even in very tense situations. He also happens to be excellent with knives.
Weaknesses:
Lyle isn’t a fighter at all. He prefers to submit rather than be hurt due to extensive resistance, though he will defend himself accordingly if need be. He hates rats and worms, so those might make him jump.. He dislikes strangers and won’t bother talking to them unless he’s seen enough of them to make good judgment.
Fears:
Pain most of all. He is also claustrophobic, musophobic, ranidaphobic, and slightly nyctophobic (In such case he would become paranoid and will be on full alert.).

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Noah T. Sorenson
Age: 10
Appearance:
Noah looks a little like his brother, except he has a slightly tanned complexion, green eyes, but he has the same hair color as Lyle. Noah's a bit of a gourmet, and considers eating an art. He's also not as picky as Lyle, eating whatever food is presented to him, provided that it's good. But since he also exercises a lot, he's healthier than his brother, having a slim, athletic figure and strong muscles for someone his age.

Personal Items:
Noah is an explorer. He loves going around, so he always has a sturdy bag with him. It's almost completely covered by old pins and badges he's found lying around the QZ. There are other things in there as well, such as tools, manuals, and extra food. Noah loves his food, and often keeps a stash back at their apartment. For his work, Noah owns a nice tool belt from which he hangs the necessary equipment when he's working on cars or plumbing (if there is any). At home he keeps his clothing and other belongings in a drawer cabinet with a secret entrance into the walls of the apartment. This is something he, his brother, and Lieutenant Doyle came up with.
Weapons:
Unlike Lyle, Noah will defend himself readily. Any of his tools can be used as weapons, but this young boy especially loves monkey wrenches. He could easily kill you with one, even if you had a kevlar helmet on. (Mainly because he wouldn't strike you on the head.) Other than that is a Beretta M9 he has in the bottom of his bag all the time. It's got four magazines. Only recently, Lyle has devised a mask for his brother that would allow him to see properly and still keep him safe from spores.
Location:
Within the CSCQZ, with his brother Lyle, and their figurative mum, Lt. Bethany Doyle.
Bio:
Noah was young when he watched his parents die. They had both been infected, and it was difficult for him to believe what happened at first, but then Lyle helped him strengthen his resolve, and over time Noah developed a more defensive personality that would allow him to deal with hostile situations well. On their trip to Denver, it was often Noah who hunted for food and fended mutants off despite his age. He could kill Runners and dispatch Clickers with relative ease, but he always needed his brother to assist him.

So he developed a doctrine... For killing mutants. That was his hobby on the way to the capital. Later in Denver, he'd make a doctrine on killing Hunters, too. Lyle does not encourage this, but he supports his brother anyway, knowing that Noah is the more resilient of the two of them. Currently, Noah is a prodigy when it comes to fixing things. Noah keeps on improving his skill and actively seeking out learning sources, in hopes of one day forming a team with his big bro and Lt. Doyle. Same with Lyle, he doesn't use his real name, instead insisting on being called Lionheart, a name his brother gave him.

At the moment, Noah is among the select few who are allowed to be leaving the QZ. He is usually allowed on patrols, but only when Lt. Doyle is on duty. For this, Lyle is giving him basic medical training, just in case something goes wrong.

Voice: Lincoln Loud
Blood Type: A+
Height, Weight, and Body Type: Noah's 4'9" feet tall, weighs 115 lbs., and is slim, but proportionately muscled.
Personality:
Adventurous and spunky, a tad aggressive, but otherwise friendly. He can be a bit blunt sometimes, and doesn't like being the butt end of jokes or being the one who's kept out of secrets. Noah's not exactly a motormouth, but he can be talkative sometimes. He loves to eat all sorts of food, but hates tomatoes and bitter gourds. Noah loves his brother and defends him most of the time since he doesn't fend for himself, be it physically or verbally.

Skills:
Noah is a good all-around handyman, a decent shot, and very good runner and lifter. He has some skill in hand-to-hand combat as well, but in his own style based on his doctrines.
Strengths:
Being strong and confident at the same time, Noah's good for any bad situation and is less likely to break. He's a quick thinker, but that could also be his weakness. He's extremely loyal and faithful to those he considers friends or family.
Weaknesses:
Sometimes, Noah can be a bit brash and hostile. His bluntness can cause him to lose friends. He also can't resist his brother or Lt. Doyle and goes out of his way to make their day better, even at his own cost.
Fears:
Like everyone else, dying. He's a little claustrophobic and is scared of bloaters. He's afraid of losing his brother or Lt. Doyle, which is the reason he goes out with her. They're the only family he's got left, after all.

Basic Info
Name: Nicolau Urbano Canosa
Age: 17
Appearance:
For Mister Corrian... God bless America!~
One outfit. >.>
Ditto. Didn't really need another one, but eh.
Another shirt.
Ditto.
And another.

Anyway, yeah. That's the largest amount of photos I'll ever provide for any character of mine. Mainly because I actually had more sources. >.> So, anyway... Nico has brown-ish skin... Or whatever it is you call that complexion. He's of Galician descent, so... Yeah. He's also got brown eyes, brown hair, and glasses, which he badly needs. Usually wears collared shirts which don't attract much attention and are usually more or less a perfect fit. He wears jeans, cotton pants, basically anything that will go that doesn't look shabby. His shoes are just like anyone else's, but he favors running shoes and sneakers the most. Likes hoodies and coats, too.

Personal Items:
Lots of drawing books, notebooks, and journals. He keeps logs on certain things and takes a lot of notes. Nico also has lots of writing tools such as pencils and pens, some of them don't have ink anymore though. He has a good supply of hoodie jackets and collared shirts, running shoes, and books. His room is stacked with books pertaining to all subjects, mostly history and biology, more on zoology. Nico also has animals that are kept in aquariums and stuff. Things he managed to preserve or improvise with over the years. There's also food and various supplies for them lying around.
Weapons:
None. Nico does not have weapons, being a non-violent person, but he is working on weaponizing the venom from his rattlesnakes, which could be good against hunters and mutants when bullets are no longer an option, considering there are cytotoxins in the substances.
Location:
CSCQZ, specifically in the Argonaut apartments. He has no family, they've all died from sickness and/or old age.

Bio:
Nico was born within the walls of the CSCQZ and has lived a fairly peaceful and normal life, since he always complies with the rules, of course with a little discernment. Whenever there was something he couldn't work with he would always act inconspicuous and normally gets away with it. His parents were always against his hobby of keeping animals since they take up space and resources, but he doesn't really listen to them since they don't really care and let him do whatever he wants after a while, so Nico knows how to get around their rules around the apartment.

Within the QZ, apart from Lt. Doyle, Nico is one of the first people who made friends with Lyle. They seem to have a lot in common and usually hang out on the rooftop garden with Noah. They're both very quiet and love nature. Lyle enjoys going to Nico's house to read and observe his pets, and Nico loves learning about plants and getting good supplies for his own pets from his friend. Nico also gets a lot of help from Noah who is good at improvising and making sturdy enclosures for animals. Nico's parents also seem to like the two.

Later though, Nico's parents pass away. His father goes first, due to getting sick during a time when there weren't enough medical supplies. Left with only his mum, Nico coped pretty well, but then his mother passed away as well due to unknown causes. He was saddened for a while, but after spending a few nights with Lyle and Noah, he got a bit better and started to strive more to be like his friends, who appeared to be doing really well, even after they were left without both their parents.

Currently, Nico is weaponizing rattlesnake venom for the QZ military and is working anonymously, since he doesn't trust the current leader. He plans on using the weaponized venom for arrowhead lining and gas bombs.

Extra Info (Not Required)
Voice: (Ehm, can't really get one.)
Blood Type: A-
Height, Weight, and Body Type: Nico stands up to 4'12" ft., and weighs 108 lbs. He's just somewhere between skinny and slim. He's stronger than he looks though, since he carries lots of heavy things such as feeds, aquariums, etc.
Personality:
Very friendly and approachable. He's a quick speaker, but is a bit timid until you get to know him more. Nico loves animals and cares for a lot of them in spite of people thinking that it's a waste of time and resources. He enjoys reading, writing, drawing, and just being creative in general, and tries not to let others' opinions direct the way he goes. He might lose his temper sometimes though, since everyone does at some breaking point. Nico is something of a daydreamer and spends time on his own, usually on rooftops or near bodies of water just to do that.

Skills:
Although appearing to be very limited, Nico is actually very versatile and can do lots of things. He might be inexperienced in one field, but can easily acclimate himself to perform properly. He's especially good with animals and writing, drawing, putting things together, and also cooking. He likes to work and hates idling.
Strengths:
Nico loves making friends, not enemies. He's very patient, and will never openly show his anger until someone pushes him too far. He's very loyal, understanding, caring, and considerate. He will apologize and try to make up if he fails.
Weaknesses:
Nico's need to make more friends than enemies has a downside also. People tend to use him for their own gain, and they can get on Nico's nerves enough to make him angry at them. He can be pretty scary and foulmouthed when mad, so that could be a problem. Nico also isn't good with promises and schedules, since he gets distracted easily. He also has trouble with finishing what he starts, can't really work well under pressure, but does his best to cope and make up for his shortcomings.
Fears:
A lot of things. But most of all is not being able to plan for himself. He's also scared of losing any of his pets, being put in a situation where he can't defend himself, or in an emergency. He's scared of having to face the real world and prefers to live in his youth.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Mackenzie Redford
Age: 16
Appearance:

Personal Items: 1. A notepad that's somehow still intact after so long (unless someone started making their own paper, which would be reasonable)
2.Various unimportant things that she has hoarded in her room where she lived, which was in one of the apartments.
3.Backpack full of shit, usually shit she collects when she "goes on adventures"
4.Some of her clothes items
5.Found a skateboard, which she uses a lot when traveling around the safe zone, especially when she is bored. Her backpack can also carry it around.
6.Somehow or other, pencils for drawing and writing with.
Weapons: 1. A military grade knife she found when sneaking out
2.A Beretta M9 that she somehow got a hold of.
Location: Colorato State Capitol, Denver, Colorado
Bio: Mackenzie had been orphaned young, or so everyone assumed. Nobody really knows her origins, not even her. She doesn't seem to entirely be troubled by it, but people do believe that lack of any real parenting and parental affection is partly why she is the way that she is. She's just grown up in the safe zone with everyone else, mostly in the places equivalence to an orphanage. Though at this point, she seems to want to move out of the orphanage, finding it annoying, but there isn't really anywhere else for her to go. She has no family, so for now, she has to rely on the orphanage. Which, at least she didn't have to work for a home or something, she guessed. Didn't have to do boring routine every day. Not that the orphanage was a lot better. There was still school for all the young people to do, and that was pretty boring in itself for her. That was just another routine...get up, go to schoo, learn boring shit, and go back to sleep. Of course, there were times she was gone, as she regularly snuck out of the orphanage, and safe zone in general. And yes, she has gotten in trouble when she got back, but it doesn't really seem to stop her. It's not like she can hide having disappeared. They'll either have to eventually go to desperate measures to keep her contained, or just give up on hope of controlling her recklessness, because she has little regard for her own safety.

As recent times had gone, Mackenzie's escaping had actually become harder. They always had a lot of soldiers on patrol, but since their new leader became in charge, it seemed like the military influence had increased even further. So trying to sneak out became rather difficult, but she still managed it, due to having gained a lot of stealth skills. Still, she did not seem to be that big of a fan of Callandra, despite a leader being in her age group for once. How that happened, she didn't really know, nor did she really bother to find out, not yet anyway. Beyond this, she ended up taking on writing and drawing, which seemed to be her way to help keep her sanity. Drawing and writing kept her mind occupied, distracted from everything else. It wasn't quite so routine, as it was a hobby that she could do whenever she felt like it, not when she had to do something for a job. And of course she kept on with her life of making up her own adventures out in the real world. Plus, she somewhat got to know another boy at the school they went to sometimes, and that boy was Cedric, though that didn't mean anything besides the fact she felt like he had at least somewhat of the same world view as hers, if not entirely. So that was refreshing. Of course, she hadn't actually talked to him a ton, so she could be completely wrong, but he seemed...different. Not like the rest of the people just simply going on with their boring lives. He seemed to be excited for adventure and something new as well, not just the routine of life, and that was a good thing in her eyes. At least getting to know him might make school more interesting to her. She got caught up in his group, too, probably about the same time that he did really, since she had been here all her life after all. And that led to some bad things in her life, beyond just sneaking out, though even she seemed to be weary about the whole thing after stuff got out of hand and some of them got killed. Overall, she still mostly just kept to her self, while since he was one of her only "friends", trying to drag Cedric into some of her own life adventures.

Extra Info (Not Required)
Voice: Katelyn Nacon
Blood Type: B-
Height, Weight, and Body Type: 5'4", 123 pounds, straight body type, average in size in general.
Personality: Mackenzie has a bit of a strange personality, really. She doesn't really seem nice, but she's not really unfriendly, either, at least most of the time. She doesn't go out of her way to be polite, though, but she doesn't go out of her way to be rude, either. She seems to have a problem with coping in the world in general. And not because the world is chaotic. No, it is more like the opposite. Because she has lived in the safe zone all of her life, the repetition of life inside constant security grates on her, and she seems to go stir crazy with the repetition of life. Having a normal job in a normal world would probably have driven her up the wall, and the safe zone is rather boring in itself. Gets bored easily as you might expect. Seems to have a reckless nature in general, wanting to see the world and in the process risking her life when doing so. But at least she would have lived life in an exciting way when she died. Seems to have a strange outlook on the world in general. Usually appears like she cares about little, but for people that she cares about, she actually does tend to care about their well being, even if she has a really weird way of showing it. Seems to try to run away from responsibilities and reality, sometimes disppearing outside the safe zone for days because of that. Has a bad habit of not facing responsibility in general, and for almost anything, she tends to run away from it instead of facing it. These are the basics, anyway.
Skills:1. Has some good skill with stealth, from a lot of experience over the years of sneaking out and about and having to dodge guards.
2.Knows how to make torches and a fire for herself from all the times of going out on the other side of the wall
3.Climbing abilities. She gets over the wall, after all.
4.Writing
5.Drawing
Strengths:1.Would likely put up hell of a fight if needed
2.Has a lot of endurance. Seems to be able to run well for one.
3.Has a unique worldview which may be of use somehow.
Weaknesses: 1.Curiosity has a habit of getting the best of her, and, you know, in the wrong situation, that could be bad.
2.Is rather reckless, mostly in that she goes over the walls on a regular basis with little regard for her own safety.
3.Seems to have a generally uncaring nature in general, which can be dangerous for herself and others around her
Fears: Oddly, of an overly comfortable life. She hates routine, and has a fear of getting stuck into a generic routine job. She prefers to be a free bird, so to speak, that does whatever she wants to, when she wants to. Would likely go crazy if she had to deal with a boring job like that. Probably a big part of why she goes out, to get the adrenaline of adventure and such like that.

[United Human Planets]

I think Ill leave a little TAG right here

[United Human Planets]

Hey, where are everybody's characters?

[Kylantha]

All active characters are in the United States.

There's someone in Seattle, Arizona, Colorado, and... I don't know where else.

[Corrian]

Hey, where are everybody's characters?

We got people in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Denver, Colorado capitol group, some in the Seattle area, Jomax City which is a group in Arizona....People scattered about in non specified locations. But those 4 are the main ones right now I think.

[Corrian]

Also, Terintania and I realized Cathel was telling stories while he was recovering from getting shot....

Smooth job on our part there having Cathel just tell stories.

[Corrian]

Okay, I don't remember exactly what gated community of the 4 we had as options we decided on anymore. One I'm definitely excluding but I'm looking into them even more.

There was my personal favorite I think, just because of the big houses and nice looking wall and entrance, plus room to expand, but I also see some problems. One, the wall doesn't go around the whole thing (Backside seems to be open), and two, there is this...canal type of thing going through it? Seems like easy access...here is an overview. And here is the street view at the entrance. The houses look quite big and nice. This one also appears to be north of Colorado Springs, though still generally in the Colorado Springs metropolitan area (I think), and is probably safer than in the middle of the city. Here are some pictures. Also, my old post says the house size is like 3,600 square feet.

I'm going to ignore the last one with like no wall and the one with way too many houses, so here is the smallest one:
This one still appears to have large houses, at 3,900 square feet according to my post, but it is small, with only 14 houses. But it also has a full wall. However, the houses look a lot more generic and boring. Also, the wall isn't exactly tall. And this one appears to be north of Colorado Springs, too, just not as north. Overview. The houses themselves just appear to be boring ass white houses...Just meh. Here is a street view. But they probably don't need a lot bigger than that size wise...

Ooor I could look for entirely new ones.

Or we can compromise.

Whatever.

I'm not sure, but I think the second one was the one that was chosen.

Kylantha seems fine with the first one now. It certainly looks a lot nicer, and they could always build their own wall.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Sofia Lightell
Age: 17
Appearance:
Sofia is a tall and ablebodied girl with long brown hair, turquoise colored eyes, and olive skin. She wears a jacket a lot of the time, along with boots and leather gloves.
Personal Items:
Sofia carries a brown backpack that carries all the necessary clothing and medical supplies, some ammunition for her carbine, a jug filled with clean water, and a thin blanket. She also keeps a picture of herself with her brother Griffen.
Weapons:
Sofia owns a compound bow that she just found and fixed. She also has an 1892 Mare's Leg Lever-Action Carbine, which is small enough to be easily stored along the side of her backpack or at her waist.

Location:
Outside the Colorado A.F.A. with her group, moving to a new settlement in the same state.
Bio:

Sofia, her pregnant mother, and her aunt had just escaped her father who went all psycho-bonkers. He tried to boop them with a screwdriver one evening, after he and his sister-in-law had a fight about his being lazy and complacent. Now they were running towards a quarantine zone fearing for their lives. The wall guards stopped them and yelled at them to get down on their knees. They were surprised when an armed man came running, brandishing his screwdriver and drooling like crazy. He was shot down, but not before he managed to bury his screwdriver into the back of his wife's right shoulder.

Only then did the soldiers open the gate, calling up a group of men with a stretcher. Sofia was scanned on the way to the medical center, along with her mother and aunt. Hours later, Sofia learns that her mother has died during childbirth due to extreme bloodloss. The child that arrived was a boy. He was undernourished and would likely die. But he didn't. In fact, he grew up being strong and healthy thanks to the ample food supply and presence of healthcare experts. Sofia helped her aunt raise the boy, who was named Griffen.

Everything seemed well enough, until the food shortage came, and things got desperate. Parties were now often sent out to find food supplies. Sofia volunteered for her family and as a way of thanking the QZ's people for accepting and helping her family. This newly acquired job of hers is where she honed her skills in hunting and is also where she met her first love, Steven Wakeford. Apart from being handsome, he was also quite stubborn in a way that was cute and attractive. She and Steven decided to pair up for one reason or the other, but her aunt disallowed it. She didn't want another child to care for, considering the QZ's situation. Sofia broke it off as a result... Or at least she said she did.

Sofia and Steven went on with their relationship until eventually Steven's brother found out about it also. They weren't very happy either, but got used to all the gross affection that their brother showed around Sofia.

At some point, the QZ did fail to exclude the virus, and a bloater managed to get past the main gate. An unnecessary evacuation was ordered, and too many people were killed in the process as a result of pani on the parts of both civilian and military personnel. Women and children were loaded onto trucks first, but Sofia couldn't catch up with her family since she was outside at the time. Steven returned to his apartment to find that his best friend Cody was caring for his brothers. They refused to leave without him, and from there the group was formed. They went on through the state of Idaho and eventually found the squeamish Aden, quickly assimilating him into the group.

Sofia noticed then how rough Steven was with Aden, but she could tell that he cared for the boy anyway. It was just frustrating for him to be suddenly thrust into a leadership role. She herself was aching for her brother and aunt, but didn't know where exactly the military had taken them. Either way, she followed Steven to Marsing, as he believed that was the next and nearest safezone. Upon arriving there however, they find that this is not the case. The Marsing QZ is long gone. Here Steven and his bunch meet Woodrow, the Irish dude who Sofia later falls for, but at the cost of Aden's respect for her.

The group is separated at the exit of the city, and Sofia finds herself with a distraught Steven. It turns out he actually cared for Aden and couldn't take the loss properly. Sofia manages to calm Steven down for the time being, but he is already deeply depressed. Unfortunately, two miles out of Colorado, Steven takes a short break. His brothers, worried, stay with him. Sofia and Cody step aside to talk about what they're to do with Steven. But their interrupted by several consecutive gunshots. They turn back to their friends to find that Steven has shot Dillon twice in the head, killing him instantly. Travis stands there in shock, and is unable to move when his older brother shoots him several times through the torso.

Following this, Cody tells Sofia to run, as he does the same. Steven shoots him as well though. And after failing to get Sofia, he puts the gun barrel into his mouth and pulls the trigger.

Sofia tries to find Cody, but can't. Before sunset, she leaves with the corpses of Dillon and Travis in hopes of finding a suitable place for their burial. Along the way though, she's forced to leave them both and continued her tiresom trek. She's picked up later by Aden and Sofia though, who take her along to Colorado to join up with Electra's group. The three then assist Electra in her plans to save her sister, although Sofia herself is a bit reluctant, she agrees with Electra later on. After they are able to enter the place where Electra's sister is being held, they are rescued by a group called the Mob.

The two groups spent some time together, but are now separated as Electra has decided to find and settle somewhere.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Cayden Willis Terrell
Age: 43
Appearance:
Cayden is a large, well-built man with brown hair, light blue eyes, and a fair complexion. He has a military uniform, but doesn't often wear it. Currently he wears a checkered button-up shirt, jeans that were not deliberately torn, boots from his former job, and a cowboy hat that his son used to own. He also has a cap and shades as seen in the image, which he doesn't usually wear.
Personal Items:
Cayden has a big bag, but it's not even half-full, with only clothes, food, and extra ammunition inside of it. He has an incomplete medical kit in a separate bag which is attached to the larger backpack. Cayden's hat is actually the property of his deceased son, Jesse.
Weapons:
Being an ex-soldier, Cayden is an excellent marksman and fighter, and is the most heavily armed of the group. His primary weapon is a 6" 60DS Chiappa Rhino Revolver which he's had for the longest time. In the secondary slot are a pair of Beretta 92fs handguns which he took from the armory at the small and pitiful Dillon QZ. Apart from this is his HK416 service rifle which he still uses and conserves much ammunition for. And finally, for close combat, Cayden has a Whetstone Jungle Master bowie knife, which he inherited from his father, who was a Major in the Army.

Location:
Outside the Colorado A.F.A., now at a subdivision somewhere.
Bio:
Cayden used to be one of the soldiers guarding the Dillon QZ. It was overrun however, and with the QZ went Cayden's wife and son, who were both mauled to death by mutants. Cayden managed to kill off the mutants, but he was too late, and resorted to killing as many mutants as possible before his commanding officers gave the order to evacuate. Cayden quickly buried his family's remains and left the city, but didn't go far off from it. He built a makeshift bunker outside the city's vicinity and resided there with a car he found. Due to loneliness he started talking to the car and even names it Chelsea.

While living at the bunker, Cayden later finds that Dillon has been taken over by another group. He immediately has a bad feeling about them and avoids them. His presumptions though are later confirmed when they appear and try to uproot his home. But time and time again, they fail miserably. When their casualties started to mount up, they stopped.

A few weeks more and Cayden is surprised one day to find that several of his mines have been dug up. Claymores and landmines alike had been stolen by someone. While searching for them he finds two boys. The Denison brothers. Cayden insists that they stay with him, but they refuse and head off towards another QZ, which is walled off. Cayden makes friends with the boys and later encounters a group of people. They were survivors of the Dillon fiasco, and had escaped in an effort to get to safety, as apparently the people who'd taken over were evil libertines and sadistic devils.

Among them were Brie Carson and James Oakley. Cayden accompanied them to the exclusion zone, but does not see the Denison boys. There seem to be people on the other side of the wall, but they are not willing to let others in. Brie tries to climb the wall in desperation but takes a wrong hold, falls, and dies. James Oakley and the rest head East, away from the wall. Cayden returned to his bunker after this, spending more weeks there until Electra and Cathal turn up. He helps them out and goes to the wall with them, deciding once and for all to abandon his bunker. With Chelsea they head on to the exclusion zone, only to find that Titus' older brother had been tortured and executed by the people who now occupied Dillon.

Titus is a pretty brave kid however, and has survived for this long, even stockpiling a bunch of heavy firearms in a delivery truck. He is later killed however, in an all-out attack by the Dillon hunters. Cayden is distraught by this, reminded of his loss of his own family, and kills the leader of the hunters. On their way to the A.F.A, Cayden buries Titus and continues with the others. There they find Woodrow, Aden, and Sofia, who join them until the A.F.A. raid. They've been rescued and are looking to find a home to settle down in for good.

Voice: Bradley Cooper
Blood Type: AB-
Height, Weight, and Body Type: Cayden is a really big, burly athletic man, weighing in at a whopping 230 lbs. and standing up to a height of 6'3".
Personality:
At most times a good and friendly person. He tries to help out everyone he can, but can sometimes lose control when he's angry or needs to defend someone. Cayden has a soft spot for kids and makes for a good father figure for any child. He's a pretty playful person too and tries to have fun when he's not busy. He has a healthy mindset and lifestyle so that he remains in shape, making him the kind of bear you don't really want bearing down on you should you manage to royally piss him off.
Skills:
Cayden used to be a trained soldier, so he's very good at strategies, formations, shooting, dealing with explosives, and stealth. He's big and is a good fighter in close combat and has good eyesight, allowing him to notice slight movements, which makes him a good sniper also. He's a good cook and has a skill for making even the grossest looking foods taste good.
Strengths:
Because he wants to make sure that he and whoever he's responsible for is safe, Cayden often plans ahead and always thinks logically. He doesn't often lose his cool in a tense situation unless he's extremely aggravated or someone he knows even as an acquaintance is in danger. Cayden is a big person and his friendly aura makes him a little easier to trust than most.
Weaknesses:
When angered, Cayden might act too extremely. He doesn't have any problem hurting someone he considers as a danger to himself or others that he cares about, and might be too violent and unforgiving at times. He's also not a very good diplomat, preferring to assume a superior role in most arguments.
Fears:
Cayden fears being unable to protect those he is responsible for. He hates being the oldest of a group as he fears that he might one day not be capable of providing protection for them in the future. Despite his size, he's actually quite freaking scared of raccoons and rats... Basically any type of rodent. He doesn't show that though, as there haven't been any ratties to scare him yet.

Personal Items: A backpack filled with little old memorabilia and survival buffs, there's manuals, maps, old carpentry tools he's carved up and little knickknacks he's made for himself. There's also his Dad's stressball, used to the point of barely remaining yet he still pulls it out when puzzled, having a panic attack or frustrated. He has a utility harness that he can put foliage in to make for a mock-up ghillie suit in a pinch and is rarely without his khaki MARSOC baseball cap and his self-made walking staff.
Weapons:
Remington M21 Sniper Weapon System, his Marine Corps weapon
Glock 19, used to have a HK MK. 23 yet the bullets became too expensive
Two knives, one is his Marine KA-BAR combat knife and the other is his carpentry knife. Both dull quite quickly so he has a whetstone on hand
Note: Ryan has taken to carving tiny, almost imperceptible rivets into the handle of each weapon to denote the number of human kills with each. The Remington has just reached into the 3 digits at 113, the Glock has 21 and the Combat knife has 66. The Carving knife has one notch, a particularly confused attack in which he was taken mostly by surprise. It was a Clicker but Lopez still counts it.
Location: Just arrived at State Capitol Quarantine Zone in Denver, Colorado with a trade caravan. May stay around for a while and join up with the militia.
Bio: Ryan Lopez was born into the military, a real army brat to a Marine Scout Sniper and an Military Policewoman, both of whom joined up shortly before the outbreak and got together out of panic after the outbreak. Ryan was the product of that panicked union, yet the two of them decided to keep the child and decided if they had a daughter she would be named Hope. Instead they received a son and were (ironically enough) disappointed. This was back in the day when the military still had a decent handle on the crisis and military people were assigned all over, leaving Ryan in state care for most of the time when his parents were out of the zone. His mother was assigned to an airfield which was overrun and went dark. His father had no idea what to do on his own and ultimately continued to bury himself in his work while putting Ryan in one of the military schools when he was 5, entrusting him almost fully to state care. Ryan took up his father's MOS and joined up as a scout sniper at 16, where he was put to work on all kinds of bloodied action as one of the only Special Operations capable resources still around, blowing up spore infested buildings, hunting Bandit and Firefly leaders and training militia to fight.

When Ryan was 22 news came in that his dad was killed in a car-bomb explosion the fireflies took credit for. Ryan was justifiably angry in spite of his lack of connection with his father and several years later hunted down the remaining members of the Firefly cell, killing all eight in the space of a weekend. For all this time Ryan was honing his craft as a sniper and improving. Ryan's spotter from the beginning, Jane Ellis was mauled to death when both were ambushed in their sleep by a Clicker, Both were 23 at the time. Ryan found love with a Male Nurse-Practitioner named Charlie Richards, however Charlie died on an illegal scavenging trip beyond the barricade (again while Ryan wasn't even in the same state, this time trying to find a quarantine zone that had gone silent due to an outbreak and swallowed by the infected). Upon hearing the news from a friend Ryan broke down to an older NCO in charge of most snipers in the region. The NCO promised not to tell however the secret got out and a group of soldiers with backwards views hazed Ryan repeatedly, leading to him leaving the military and Quarantine zone at 28.

Since that point Ryan has mostly kept to himself, moving around and working frequently as a caravan guard or militiaman, occasionally entering into co-operatives, yet most of them either broke down or were destroyed. Ryan was caught up at one point in an assembled Special Forces unit that was trying to recover a dozen mint-condition helicopters, that recruited him back in for the mission however the unit faced 60% casualties in a firefight with a large cult built up around the airbase, leading to them only getting two helicopters out under heavy fire and leaving all helicopters too damaged to fly. Ryan has drifted through life.

Extra Info (Not Required)
Voice:
Blood Type: B+
Height, Weight, and Body Type: He's been undernourished from early on, and at 6'1 and 11 stone this guy is just the right side of underweight (his dad was 6'3 and 14 stone). He has a survivors' build, with a high amount of muscle in practical spots with just a scrap of fat that gives him a good level of endurance. He's big mostly due to good genes. His knuckles are callused and hardened and there's small wear-and-tear scarring all over him.
Personality: Ryan is jumpy to a fault, quick to anger and more than capable of running at the first sign of trouble that can't be dealt with, he has flashes of good humour and affability however by and large he's either coldly seething or hot with anger of both the tranquil and screaming variety. At heart however, Ryan is a practical survivor who does have a conscience and wants to help people, he'd just rather live to fight another day.
Skills: Ryan hasn't lasted 48 years in this hellhole by being dumb, that's for sure. He's got some level of experience in farming and raising animals, and he's still a decent rider from his time in the Texas Rangers, yet his true skillset is that of a soldier. Ryan can survive under his own means, foraging and hunting for food, for months without incident and only returns to civilization to restock on bullets and other irreplacables. He's also skilled at unconventional warfare in all it's forms; he can make a shot from 800 yards or drag a KA BAR through a guy's throat without either his victim or him making a sound.
Strengths: As has already been stated, Ryan is a tough, skilled fighter at all ranges and can seriously screw up someone's day with experience working as both an independent operator and part of a unit. Ryan's also a born survivor who can seriously work hard for short term survival. He's a reasonably capable handyman and can keep supplies in good nick as well.
Weaknesses: Ryan's spent 30 years fighting and it's slowing him down, both mentally and physically. Ryan is not as young as he was and if faced with another, younger man as skilled as him in close quarters he would be hard pressed. He's also suffering from both hyper-sensitivity and traditional PTSD, not-infrequently suffering from panic attacks and nightmares as well as picking up on every possible sign of trouble, meaning he stresses quite quickly and cannot go on longer missions without losing a lot of his effectiveness.
Fears: Ryan is beginning to seriously lose it, he can still function for now, yet it's only a matter of time before he completely snaps.

Character Application
Basic Info
Name: Sonny Barrow
Age: 22
Appearance:

Personal Items: Camping gear, old North Face backpack, hiking boots, pickup truck.
Weapons: Machete. 1911 Colt 45.
Location: Outskirts of Saint Louis.
Bio: Sonny was born a little ways outside the walls of the New Orleans QZ, in a small town that people had gathered in and done a pretty good job of protecting. Not nearly as powerful or large as the QZ's or the Firefly's, but still safe from bandits and the infected. Both of Sonny's parents made their living travelling back and forth between their town and New Orleans to trade scrap, medicine, food and other useful supply's. Sonny spend much of his younger years going back and forth between his parents homes and the homes of their neighbors. Due to the rather dangerous job's that his parents had, he was never allowed to come with them, and instead was left with a myriad of shirttail aunts and uncles. Sonny never minded though. He was sociable and good natured, and made many friends.

When he was old enough, Sonny set out on his own. Due to the more friendly relations that the New Orleans QZ had with the surrounding towns, the areas of southern Louisiana were relatively safe. There were still bandits and infected of course, but by the time that Jimmy was an adult it was a relatively safe journey to make ones way between towns, the only real danger coming if one was to venture into the swamps, where crocodiles might eat you. Sonny worked in a small shop that sold the rice his town grew to travelers from neighboring community's, or to soldiers who came out from New Orleans. In time he saved up his own food and money. Once he had enough, he bought an old Colt 1911. He packed up all his stockpiled food in a rucksack, found a good pair of hiking boots, said goodbye to his parents and set out north in search of something new. He followed the Mississippi River, and eventually came to a little town that had clearly been inhabited recently. Where the population was now was anyone's guess, but luckily for Sonny they had left behind many things he could use. One of which was a still functioning car, the only part it needed was a wheel. Sonny spent the next week in the town replacing the wheel, and siphoning gas for his new car. Once he had enough, he fired it up and headed to Saint Louis.

I greatly apologize if I offend anyone in my portrayal of Diego. I'm trying to base him off the personality of Mordecai in Borderlands (Obviously making him in my own way), but I might fail a bit at that
