It has been two weeks since the infection hit the state of California in the first week lots of looting and chaos swept through the city of Los Angeles, three days after the initial outbreak the US military has set up camps at Camp Pendleton few miles outside of the city to evacuate the civilians. As the days went by the people who were still trapped within the city either became infected adding to the number of undead, those that are alive have either made it to Camp Pendleton. However it has become overrun by the undead, and when one person is bitten the infection quickly spreads.

Name: Alex Shepard

Age: 20

Appearance: Alex has short shaggy brown hair, and hazel eyes, he has a clean shaved face, although he does have defined sideburns. Alex stands around 6'4, weighing around 190, he has broad shoulders and a toned body. Alex's nose is crooked due to repeatedly being broken. He is wearing his uniform, including his belt, with a empty holster.

Gender: Male

Family: Alex has had little contact with any family over the years, everyone except his mother that is, who passed away a year before things went to hell.

Personality: Alex has a calm, untrusting way about himself, although once he has begun trusting someone, he can be quite caring, but to anyone he doesn't know well, someone he hasn't had a chance to connect with, he is rather cold toward them. Alex is a strong willed leader, one who enjoys taking charge when the need arises.

Bio: As a small kid, he admired his father for his service on the police force in the small town he grew up in, although early on he noticed his father had a different side to him, he could be a reckless, abusive and terrifying monster when he got drunk, which was often. His father abused his power, covering up his own crimes, while he put on a heroic facade tricking those he was most close with into thinking he was a good man, while his wife and son cowered in fear from his destructive and abusive personality. Alex grew up with fear in his heart, although when he came of age, he stood up to his father, he nearly beat him to death after he had beaten his mother, his father confessed to the crimes when his mother took things to the police, while he sat in jail, Alex worked his way into a police force, far from his home town. Alex was considered an exceptional officer, he was on a drug raid when things took a turn, he managed to escape although his squad car was hit from the side, and is somewhat damaged, although it still runs fairly well.

Job Before The Outbreak: Cop

Disability/Fear: A debilitating fear of heights

Weapon of Choice: A fully loaded shotgun in the back of his damaged squad car, along with a handful of shells.

"Terminus" (Also, apologies if a squad car seems too op for my character, although it would make sense, and it was damaged, in case you are worried about it being overpowered, if there is anything that you think needs to be changed please tell me.)

Name: Wayne Travers

Age: 30

Appearance: Take the hair and beard of Joel from The Last of Us, make him rough and tougher-looking like Trevor from Grand Theft Auto 5, and give him a black Slayer t-shirt, a biege fishing vest, khaki cargo shorts, and a pair of hiking boots w/ wool socks, and then you've got Wayne. He tends to squint his eyes, which can either make him look like he's a Clint Eastwood cowboy gunslinger, or completely confused. When he's angry or manic, his eyes flare wide open, and regardless of whether he put up a smile or frown in this mood, you know that shit's gonna go down. Wayne stands at 6'0 and weighs about 196 pounds.

Gender: Male

Family: Wayne has been completely estranged from his family since he was 13. Dad killed himself, mom's dead now too, his older sister Diana is (or was) a Beverly Hills socialite, and God knows what's happened to his little brother Kent since Wayne ended up institutionalized and Kent ended up taken by social services when dad killed himself.

Personality: He's normally quiet and docile, but that's often interrupted by his destructive meltdowns and poor impulse control. Drugs and alcohol don't really help this matter. With other people, he can be obnoxious, immature, rude, sarcastic, insensitive, offensive, raunchy, and he doesn't pick up on social cues very well. Unfortunately, Wayne's social awkwardness is also another complicating factor that makes Wayne have his violent outbursts. He doesn't like it when people try to discipline or punish him. More than often, it seems that he's got a hair-trigger temper with people. But even though most people piss him off, he doesn't like seeing children or animals get hurt. And once he does get to know somebody, he can be loyal, but so far that's yet to be seen. On the outside, he's either a smelly drunken tramp that would make Forrest Gump look like a Hollywood socialite, or a violent psychopath that you want to run as far away from as possible, but peel off the outer layers and you'll see a sad and angry little boy who never got the chance to grow up, and he really can't help but see things as him vs. everyone else because of his shitty upbringing. Although he identifies as Catholic, he maintains a nihilistic and pessimistic attitude because he believes he's going to end up going to Hell no matter what he does, and any attempt to make it different is futile. So it ultimately wouldn't matter to him what he does, no matter how depraved and sadistic and self-destructive it may be.

And whatever you do, do not call him a retard.

Bio: Wayne was born up in Northern Alberta into an unsteady marriage that broke up when he was only 2 years old. After his parents divorced, he and his newborn baby brother Kent ended up living with their dad, who was a lazy drunk. In kindergarten, it was apparent that Wayne was different from all the other kids, and he made no friends, or even tried to make any. Meanwhile, Kent turned out to be mentally retarded, and dad ended up becoming an abusive asshole as the stress of having one son a social outcast, and the other one cognitively impaired caused him to dive deeper into the pit of alcohol abuse. In elementary, kids started picking on Wayne, and it wasn't long before Wayne started having his violent outbursts. Kid threw rocks at him, and he threw rocks back. Kids tried to beat the shit out of him, and he tried to beat the shit out of them too. Eventually the kids smart enough to not pick on Wayne avoided him like the plague, and the teachers started adding to his trauma too. They'd try to punish him for his outbursts, and classrooms and the office would look like a hurricane swept through them before the teachers had enough and they let Wayne go.

Lots of moving and occasional visits to see mom and Diana and other things happened in Wayne's life, and so was the trauma and abuse. And it all culminated into Wayne burning down a school when he was 13. Nobody was harmed, but this caused Wayne's dad to kill himself. 12 Gauge buckshot applied directly to the face. Social services came around and picked up Kent to take him to a foster home, while Wayne attempted to run away, only to get caught by the police and sent to an institution near Edmonton. The next 4 years were full of torment for Wayne as he was among killers, rapists, and other rejects of society as the only kid in that institution. When Wayne was 17, he finally made a successful escape attempt. He killed 3 security guards to escape the institution, and he fled into the wilderness heading south, with no more than the knowledge of direction, maps, and geography he retained, and the drive to head south to his uncle in Montana.

Months went by as Wayne trekked through the wilderness, avoiding people as much as he could and living off the land. Mistakes were made, and Wayne nearly died on this journey more than once, but he survived. He crossed the Canada-US border without much of a struggle, and was able to make it to his uncle, who got him cleaned up and a US citizenship before throwing him out into the military. Wayne joined the USMC, and oddly enough, military life was enough to discipline him a bit. He still didn't make any friends in the Corps, and he was always doing something to keep himself busy. He went on tour to train in Australia before being shipped off to Afghanistan in 2009, where he suffered head trauma from shrapnel in an IED explosion and was left in a coma for the next 2 weeks. Wayne was taken back to the United States for medical treatment, and once he woke up, it turned out that the trauma he suffered to the frontal lobe of his brain made him unstable. All the discipline he had from being in the military was gone now.

Wayne was discharged from the military shortly after he woke from his coma, and spent the last 5 years homeless and struggling with drug and alcohol abuse. He had just gotten his first home, a shitty little dump of a trailer house, just before the outbreak started. Now he's back to living off the land, just as he did when he escaped from the institution back in Alberta.

Job: Unemployed

Disability/Fear: Drug and alcohol abuse. He's also mildly autistic on top of his mental health issues, so he's not exactly a social champion. He's also scared of snakes, eels, starfish, and anything else that slithers or can climb on glass. He's also a misanthrope, that's for sure.

Weapon: He's currently got a hatchet with him, but he's got a stash back at his camp site in the Santa Ana Mountains.

Both are accepted.

Name: Ezekiel (Zeke) Dunn

Age: 21

Appearance: Ezekiel has what most would say are average features. He is clean shaven, has a bit of an overbite, with short, dark blonde hair, and hazel eyes. He stands at just under 6'1, and around 155 pounds. He has narrow shoulders and is not very muscular, but has more of a runner's build, and he is actually quite skinny for his height. He has no tattoos or piercings, and not a lot of other identifying features. He is wearing an oil-stained flight suit/boots/gloves, and a worn web-belt.

Gender: Male

Family: Zeke has always been close to his mother's side family, ever since she took him to a family reunion. He currently has a sister in Colorado and a couple of relatives in northern California, but the vast majority of family still lives in a small town in west Texas. His father had passed away a year ago, and he had lost contact with that side of the family.

Personality: Zeke had always been a kind of person to simply enjoy life. He likes the little things, and tries to take time to get the most out of everything he can. He is mostly a loner, and tends to be withdrawn around people he doesn't really know. Once he opens up, however, he can be quite talkative, especially when in a discussion about certain topics. Generally, he is very calm and reserved, and thinks before acting. He is not much of a leader, however he will do his best if a situation demands it.

Bio: Ezekiel was born to Jina and Darrell Dunn in Humble, Texas. He moved around a lot as a child, and never had a whole lot of opportunities to make a ton of friends. He mostly identifies with being from Chicago, although he also might flaunt his Texan birthplace. His father was in the FAA for most of his life, and loved to take him to see all of the airplanes and helicopters that he would work with constantly. Zeke learned to love the skies at a very young age, and had the chance to go on plane rides quite often. He lived a normal kids life, with no real issues at home or school. He made a few life long friends along the way, and stays in close contact with them whenever he can.

Zeke was never much of one for school or studying. He barely made it through high school, though not through a lack of intelligence. School never really interested him, and so he never really applied himself to it. After he graduated, he gladly enlisted in the US Air Force as a loadmaster. He always knew that he would join the military, and the air force was the perfect lifestyle for him. He passed through basic training with ease, and went quickly through his technical training. He was assigned to C-130s, and performed airlifts and cargo transport around the world for two years.

Once the outbreak occurred, Zeke's airlift squadron was tasked to fly out desperately needed supplies to LA, and to try to evacuate as many people as possible. The first few flights were uneventful...

Job Before The Outbreak: United States Air Force Loadmaster

Disability/Fear: Fear of insects, especially spiders. Nearly debilitating fear of being alone in darkness. A general minor paranoia in most cases.

Weapon of Choice: Military issue M9, with web-belt holster and attachments. General flight gear.

Also, terminus.

Here's my guy. I decided to make a different character then what I had before. Fresh start!

Name: Roger Williams
Age: 34
Appearance:

Gender: Male
Family: Roger has no brothers or sisters and his parents, Mike and Sarah are probably undead by now. That is of course if the outbreak has extended throughout the entire world and not just California. His wife, Jennifer died of cancer 8 years ago and their 18 year old daughter Mary didn't survive the beginning of the outbreak as she was bitten by a walker and eventually became one. Roger was forced to kill her himself.
Personality: Roger is a nice and open-minded guy most of the time. However he dosen't tolerate crap from anyone and will respond if the right buttons are pushed. What he will do depends on his current mood. He loves women and has a deep hatred for gays, hatred which he never had any kind of trouble hiding. He is also the kind of guy that tells it like it is even if that might hurt someone's feelings. Roger loves cars alot and for years, especially after the death of his wife, they have been his entire world, together with his daughter that is. Roger also proved to have alot of mental toughness because neither his wife's death of cancer 8 years ago nor the death of his daughter after the outbreak started and the fact that he had to kill her himself didn't seem to break him down.
Bio: Roger was born in Atlanta, Georgia. His father was a security guard, doing night shifts at a bank and his mother was a teacher, teaching history at a local high school in Atlanta. Roger's father loved cars alot and he passed on that love to his son, Roger, who grew up loving cars and learning about them from his father. At the age of 13 he could already do certain repairs by himself. Unfortunately Roger's rebellious attitude, coupled with his not so good situation at school kept ruining his otherwise good relationship with his parents. And to make matters worse when he was 16 he became a father, after he left his girlfriend Jennifer pregmant. Despite everything, Roger proved to be a good father but that didn't make things any better with his parents who kept telling him what to do and how he should be. One day, when he was 21, after a very heated argument with his parents, Roger took his father's car and some money and left Atlanta together with his girlfriend Jennifer and their daughter who was now 5 years old.

Initially they decided to go to Los Angeles and settle down there but while they where in Texas they decided that they wanna get married so they headed towards Las Vegas, Nevada where Roger bought Jennifer a nice ring and they both got married inside a chapel with a guy dressed like Elvis acting as priest and with two whitnesses. After the marriage Roger and his new wife stayed a little more in Las Vegas, where Roger hit the jackpot and won 250.000 $ in a casino. After that they packed their bags and headed towards their original destination, Los Angeles. There they rented a house in the suburbs and started looking for a job. Roger found work as a mechanic in a car shop. Despite having no working experience Roger was hired by the owner of the car shop who was impressed by Roger's skills. Everything was going great in L.A. for Roger. He had a job, a place to stay, a caring and loving wife, their daughter was growing nicely and going to school. It seemed that his runaway from home was the best thing he could do.

A couple of years later however disaster finally struck in their family. Jennifer was diagnosed with cancer and although Roger was willing to do whatever it was necesary to save her it was already too late. She died a few months later. All of a sudden Roger found himself a lonely father with a 10 year old girl as his entire world began crumbling down on him. However he didn't allow that to happen as he remained headstrong and moved on with his life, although deep down inside he was clearly suffering. Roger managed to survive the outbreak as he was found by US Marines and taken to Camp Pendleton along with other survivors. The same thing could not be said about his 18 year old daughter. She became a walker after she was bit by one and Roger was forced to kill her because she attacked him.
Job Before The Outbreak: Mechanic
Disability/Fear: Roger is an avid smoker. He has been smoking ever since he was 15. Once he was even suspended from school because he was caught smoking marijuana. But the suspension didn't stop him as he kept on smoking weed even to this day.
Weapon of Choice: An OKC kukri knife and a SIG Sauer P229 DAK chambered in .40 S&W with an extra magazine.

"Terminus"

Man, we need some ladies to join XD

Strum and Digi accepted. :) I will have my two characters up this afternoon I'm at work currently and I'm gonna just be using the characters I made in the old one.

Name: Rose White

Age: 19

Appearance:
Gender: Female

Family: Rose was sent to live with her aunt, Sandra, after her mother and her father had a divorce and her mother tried to kill her. At her aunt's house, she lived with her cousin, Jimmy, and their Welsh Sheepdog, Jack. Sandra was the first to get infected in the house and killed off her son while he fended her off so Rose could escape.

Personality: Before the outbreak, Rose was a shy timid girl. She rarely spoke up to anyone and often spent much time alone. She appreciates music and will stop to play her guitar at any chance possible. After the outbreak, she began to find her courage, she would have to if she wanted to survive. Being an avid climber, and small enough to fit through tough places, she has been able to survive the outbreak by sticking to rooftops and scavenging what she could. Rose does not trust easily, after having a few heavy run in with other survivors, she seems to fear the non-infected as much as she does the infected.

Bio: Rose had a normal childhood. She had a mother and a father that loved her and would give her the world, but it all changed after the divorce. Coming home from school one day, she caught her father in bed with her nursing trainer. They were "discussing her progress" as they tried to justify it. After the divorce, her mother was not the same. She stood in her room for weeks on end. Rose was always there to take care of her as best she could. Even though she knew it wasn't her fault, she couldn't help but to feel a little bit guilty about the ordeal. If Rose wasn't taking care of her mother, or studying, she was outside climbing. Free running was something that she always watched the boys doing around the city and she admired them for it. Feeling a bit embarrassed of being a girl, she took the liberty to teach herself how to do so, spending all the time that she could practicing it.
One day, when Rose was trying to feed her mother, the woman lost it and tried to strangle her. After that, Rose's mother was put in a mental institution and Rose was sent to live with her Aunt, Sandra. While living with her aunt, Rose continued her studies to become a nurse. She always wanted to help people and had great interest in health. Everything came to a dead stop though when Sandra came back home hungry for fresh and began to feed on her only son.

Job Before The Outbreak: Studying to become a nurse.

Disability/Fear: Her biggest fear is being left alone.

Weapon of Choice: With a long pole, two machete's, and tape, she crafted herself a dual sided machete that she always carries on her back. She also has a small knife that is hidden away in her boot.

Terminus

Name: Maria Alo Gonzaga

Age: 42

Appearance:

Gender: Female

Family: 0, Maria was raised by a single mother who died when Maria was in her 20's, she was never introduced to her extended family and she has no children. Keeps things simpler that way.

Personality: Her privileged upbringing shows. Maria is descended from kings, and she knows it. She openly scoffs at what she finds uncouth, commands those she sees as beneath her, and turns her nose up at that not worth her time. This was born of a lonely childhood filled with loneliness and mental struggle. She turns her posh and stoic acts up to 11 to hide her own insecurity; "Do they know I'm crazy?" "Did my mother love me?" She is someone who wears a false heart on their sleeve.

Bio: Maria's childhood was spent in equal parts between Portugal and Brazil, her mother, royal ambassador Teresa, was hardly present, but she was brought up in the lap of luxury. As a descendent of Portuguese and Brazilian royalty, she lived a life of privilege. Teresa, while not present for much of her life, gave the young Maria a qualified staff to raise her as she went between countries, receiving the best available training in every subject in school, as well as public speaking and communication, and other generally antiquated Royal lessons. The most time she spent with her mother was the occasion the two needed to make a public appearance.

Genes for "insanity" often run in Royal bloodlines, Maria was unfortunate enough to be the recipient of one of these genes after decades of Royal inbreeding in the past. Her mother never acknowledged it and the help simply told her to hide it. So hide it she did. Schizophrenia is and easy mental disease to overcome, but with a determination born in Maria, and medicine provided by occasional trips to the USA, Maria hid it.

It wasn't until she was 17 that she got her US citizenship, receiving precedence due to her regal bloodline. She received advanced lessons prior to her entry in the country, due to this and a lifetime of advanced lessons, she graduated with honors from her private American high school the same year, without pause she did her mother's bidding and went to an accredited university in Portugal and got a master's in business administration.

Then Teresa died.

Not knowing what else to do, Maria moved back to America with a very generous inheritance, and used her connections, monetary resources, and Royal education to quickly move up the ranks in various jobs she found her passions in. She eventually settled on work as an agent, she enjoyed the job for it's similarities to the ambassadorship she had been trained for, as well as the wealth the private sector provided. By the age of 30, had become a major partner in several LA modelling agencies. By 40, her models and actors could be seen and heard on practically every major television channel in the US. By 40, she had gone international, and began to dominate the local Portuguese and European modelling scene. Then with 42, came an apocalypse that took that all away.

Job Before The Outbreak: Modelling agent, partner, and major shareholder at several LA-based and international modelling agencies

Disability/Fear: Maria is actually an example of functional living with schizophrenia, from a young age she suffered from mostly auditory hallucinations as well as having an increased chance of paranoid, the medicine she takes for it keeps her mind relatively normal, but the thought that once her medicine runs out-- that's it, the thought gnaws at her. She wears glasses to help with her slight near-sightedness. As someone who has climbed the business ladder, she has participated in any number of vices, she has become attached to some more than others-- she may simply have a taste for some drugs, while she might be borderline addicted to others, she's certainly developed an addiction to caffeine and tobacco. Lastly, as someone who led a relatively sedentary lifestyle before the outbreak, it's unlikely she'll be anywhere near as capable physically most other people in.

Weapon of Choice: A rapier wit. Maria relies less on an established weapon of choice and more on "desenrascanço"-- improvisation in the moment. When under threat of zombies this could be something like finding a weapon, exploiting the environment around her, or finding a quick route of escape, while dealing with people, this skill could become more charisma based.

Did you KNOW the city of Atlanta used to be called terminus?

Darcs your accepted. :) And I just added Terminus since I watched the show and that's where the season finale left us with.

(Everyone will have to forgive me because I live in Australia and I don’t know American landscapes very well. So I only have google to go off what the locations look like)

Name: Luke Walker
Age: 23
Appearance: 6’1”, well built muscles from his work at home. He has slightly long brown hair that sweeps to the side and curls gently, and brown eyes.
Gender: Male
Family: Mother, Father (fate unknown)
 
Personality: Luke is generally caring and compassionate guy, however is not afraid to speak his mind if he thinks someone is acting irrationally or recklessly. He can sometimes be perceived as someone who is a bit of a jerk, due to the fact that he'll make decisions logically, rather than emotionally, weighing up all possibly options and then the pros and cons of those options.

It's not so much that he doesn't care, it's more just that he wants to make sure those he cares about survives and he places a higher priority on that than people's feelings.

Bio: Growing up in a large rural town (don’t ask me for a specific location because I have no clue about America geography in California).Luke was raised on a cattle farm, but had dreams for bigger things. He recently left home with the intention of getting some great job in Los Angeles, however after 6 months he was beginning to run out of money and options. It was shortly after this that the outbreak occurred. Luke was actually at the airport at the time of the initial outbreak, getting ready to board a plane home.

The place went into lock down and he, along with all the other travellers were stuck inside. That only lasted a few days before the panic set in and people started rioting. There was chaos as the crowds overpowered the security, broke through doors and windows and scattered into the roads.

He found Ashley sitting in a corner of the airport, crying over her mother who had died in the riot, a sharp blow to her head on one of the counters. And couldn't, in good conscience, leave her there on her own. The initial plan was to find someone more suited to take care of her, since he had no clue about how to care for a little girl. However as the days turned into weeks he found himself growing attached to her.
 
Job Before The Outbreak: Unemployed
 
Disability/Fear: Clasutraphobia
 
Weapon of Choice: Machete owned by Ash's father.
 
Name: Ashley (Ash) Carney
Age: 10
Appearance: 4'2", slim build, long, waist length, brown hair and green eyes.
Gender: Female
Family: Mother (deceased), Father (fate uncertain)
 
Personality: Ash is a mostly quiet girl. She is easy enough to warm up to people, and displays and innocent, trusting almost naive nature towards mostly everyone who is kind to her. She is mostly ruled by her emotions when it comes to making decisions.
 
Bio: Born and raised in Las Angeles she lives in a small town-house complex with her mother, whom works full time as a nurse and her father who works as a flight attendant. She gets along well enough in school, though prefers to have just a few close friends rather than many. Her father often has to travel for work, meaning she doesn’t get to see him as often as she'd like, and her mother often works late nights, meaning she is left home with various babysitters.

The day of the outbreak she and her mother were at the airport, waiting for a flight her father was on to land. However they soon discovered the airport had been locked down, and no planes were allowed to land. Over the next few days they waited for the airport staff to tell them they were allowed to leave, but the days wore on and soon the people stuck in the airport, hungry and frustrated, began to grow more and more aggressive, eventually blowing out into a full blown mob.

In the panic, Brianna, Ashley's mum, tried to protect her, but was shoved out of the way by a rather angry member. She fell, and hit her head against one of the counters, killing her instantly. Ashley, uncertain of what to do next, could think only to sit there and wait for her dad to come back.
 
Job Before The Outbreak: School
Disability/Fear: Physically Weak
Weapon of Choice: A kitchen knife Luke gave to her.

Three years ago his life changed forever. He is not like what he used to be. He has been hardened quite a bit in the last three years... He has became a bit more - cold, however that does not mean he is not friendly or caring - he is. He's just a different man. He can adapt well in certain situations, which may prove beneficial in the Apocalypse.

Bio: Marshall grew up in Southern LA with his mom and dad, he had a pretty normal child hood; played with toys, ran around the garden, was really friendly to other kids, in high school he was a bit more rebellious. He just wanted to skateboard and listen to music all day long. At the age of 20 he moved out and shared the rent for an apartment with some friends. One night he was mugged by three guys and slashed down the face with a knife giving him a scar. He didn't have much on him, only 20 bucks. He got no mental damage, just hospital bills and 20 bucks down.

At 22 he fell in love with a woman named Amy, she was everything to him, about a year into their relationship when he was 23, they got the news that Amy was pregnant; this made them both realise how much they loved each other and they got married - nothing big or spectacular, just a small wedding with close friends and family. Marshall was now bordering 24 when his beautiful son Noah Scott was born into the world.

As much as he loved Noah, Marshall had a bit of a reality check - his job at the grocery store wasn't making him a lot of cash, he could barely support himself and Amy. His wife made more than him. One day, some months later when Marshall was a few days away from turning 24, he was out going into different places asking if their were any job vacancies. Whilst he was doing this, Amy and Noah were in the car coming home from a friends house. Whilst he was still looking for a beter job; his phone rang. He answered of course, and it was the hospital a few blocks away from his and Amy's home, he was asked to come down immediately as there had been a fatal accident. He ran, faster than he'd previously ran before. He reached his car and drove to the hospital. As he entered he went to the main desk, skipped the queue and asked the receptionist what the hell was going on. One of the receptionists took him to the Emergency ward. He sat there for about 40 minutes, and he was going crazy, so when the receptionist came back he demanded answers. He was asked to go with one of the doctors to the resuscitation ward. He asked why but was given no answers. He went there with one of the Resus' doctors and then he was told: "We're sorry Mr. Scott... We did everything we could."

Mrs Amy Scott and baby Noah Scott died that day at 14:39 PM.

The years that came were obviously challenging for Marshall, as could be expected. He had rarely talked about it to anyone, not even his father. Whenever he met a new friend or anything he would never mention them. He hadn't forgot, he just didn't speak about it. His whole world collapsed that day. He became an alcoholic but eventually that stopped. He was now 27. He wasn't the same after that day three years ago. He isn't the same man, any more.

Job Before The Outbreak: Changed from grocery stores to hotel receptionist, through phone salesman to part time joiner.

Disability/Fear: Ex alcoholic, depression.

Weapon of Choice: Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum Model 629, 6" barrel, stainless steel with brown handle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_%26_Wesson_Model_29
