sparkle: approved. I like the idea of having an old lady join. Too many young people in this group.

Thank you! :3 Yeah I thought it'd be a bit refreshing to have an old character. :)

Thank you. I wasn't annoyed, I was just warning everyone.

Hah I know :) I just was doing it for the sake of clarity in the RP, especially since we are writing in the third person.

So how often are we allowed to post? I don't want to post twice before anyone who wants to make their first post hasn't posted yet, but I would also like to see the story advance a bit.

Name:Hunter Jackson
Age:28
Appearance:Hunter is 6'2 and a Pale skinned individual,with dark brown hair and sky blue colored eyes, his right ring finger is missing from where it got shot off from a police officer, and a long scar runs down his back due to his step fathers "tender love and care" when he was little, he also has a tattoo on his right arm that has the marine recon emblem with the words "Celer, Silens, Mortalis" above it, he is currently wearing a too large for him hunter's flannel jacket, blue jeans held by a belt with the confederate flag on it and just a white cotton t-shirt that is also too big for him.
Pre-outbreak Occupation:Bank Robber, Marine 1st Recon (Formerly)
Special skills:Reconnaissance and survival skills, familiarity with fire arms, Strong Swimmer,
Personality:Hunter is a very talkative person unless he's on the job,when on the job he is a very serious and brutally efficient, his accomplices were scared to rat him out, because of how brutal he was, the news when he was caught and his accomplices called him "The Beast", he also has severe PTSD from his past as a soldier and his childhood.
Owned items:G18 and 3 mags (looted off of the prison transport driver)
2 cans of canned corn, from a cabin nearby
a hunting knife also looted from a cabin that was nearby
various nuts and berries.
Vehicle:N/a has been walking on his own two feet this entire time.
Bio:Hunter was born to a drug addicted mother and a deadbeat father, the only person who loved him in that family was his older sister, at five years old Hunter's father decided he didn't want to try and left, no note, no nothing. But not wanting to be alone his mother decided to date and marry her own dealer for cheaper drugs, his new step father was a real piece of work he would beat and abuse Hunter and make him watch as he and his sister shared "Intimate moments" is what he called them, Hunter grew up with these memories haunting him forever steeling him in life for what was to come next nobody could guess.

Shortly after Hunter turned 14 his older sister ran away only to be found dead in a ditch and when the police came to tell the family they found their sixteen year old daughter dead in a ditch they found the awful living conditions they arrested Hunters mother and step father on the spot,along with the arresting officer the boy on the news as a living hero, the officer to have saved the boy and the boy to have lived in such bad conditions for that long, but Hunter was taken into foster care and there he sat until he was 18 years old where the only choice was to join the military, or be homeless as they didn't really help foster children after they got out, so he joined the military and became a marine, which lasted until he was 22, he retired shortly after seeing a couple of close buddies die but that wasn't the end for Hunter it was a beginning.

After getting home Hunter was called up by someone he was in foster care with and offered a job at that time Hunter didn't know what the job was until they were pulling up in front of the bank handed a AR-15 and a ski mask and told he was robbing the bank with some other people hesitant at first but needing the money Hunter took it, the first bank robbery was an success, and they managed to get away with a couple hundred thousand dollars, split amongst the group Hunter walked away with a good 20,000 needing more money Hunter accompanied the group on what the news called "The Bank Robbery Tour", eventually though his accomplices were caught in [whatever city we are in now] and ratted out Hunter's safe house taking him down with them that day Hunter was arrested in a surprising raid and taken to jail.

Hunter sat in jail for a long time until the courts decided what to do with him, and on the day they took him out of jail to transfer him to prison the guards and prisoners fell asleep crashing the bus into a group of trees when Hunter awoke the door of the bus had opened due to impact and the prisoner he was chained to was out, slipping into the front of the bus and taking the keys off of the guard who seemed to be asleep which couldn't make very much since but Hunter wasn't going to question it, and unlocking himself he took the gun off the guard and ran into the woods before he decided to wake up, there he found a cabin of a hunter and outfitted himself with new clothes and some food he went out into this weird new world.

Enalais: Approved. Now the Doc has something to do with her stolen Prozac, and we get to watch our backs as the crazy, traumatized ex-marine joins us.

thank you and already posted.

Hey Ena! Mind if I call you Ena? Eh, still gonna call you Ena even if you don't like it. :P

First: Some periods buddy. Got a lot of commas, but not many periods.

Second: I think Phoebe and Hunter could be good friends. Phoebe has major depression and needs a steady dosage of anti-depressants to be at the level of happiness that normal humans experience. Those born with it and those damaged by life come by depression in different ways, but the feeling is the same. I know that through experience.

Third: Talking to Hunter....BAD Idea for you to just start taking anti-depressants to deal with your issues. It's just as bad as drowning yourself in alcohol. The first few days to a week feel worse as your body adjusts to the medication. For me, that meant lots of nightmares and ungodly amounts of sweating. One day I ate nothing, the next day I ate everything. I've gained twenty pounds, even though I eat less than before. I sleep more and have less energy. If you forget to take the pills or decide to quit cold turkey, you will never return to your state before. In fact, you'll be lower than before. Quitting anti-depressants is a very slow process of taking smaller and smaller doses, typically two to three weeks for each step (3/4ths, half, and a quarter usually, but sometimes they cut your dosage into fifths, sixths, or even tenths) until you're finally off the drug. Also, the side-effects can be killer. Abilify sometimes works on the worse cases. It's an antipsychotic marketed as an antidepressant. My mother (who has depression and bipolar disorder) took it for her bipolar, and while her mood swings stopped, her anxiety was so bad that she would not leave a building if it was raining. Her fear of driving in the rain magnified so much she was literally afraid of rain.

So, Hunter, you're gonna have a bad time.

EDIT: Goddamn I rant!

I didn't think of that, but yeah, anti-depressants can be bad if you're not very careful. I took then because my ADD medicine was making me depressed (stupid Amphetamine salts), and quit when I quit the other stuff, but the Zoloft was still at a low dosage. Luckily I didn't have any serious withdrawal from the other stuff.

Is the RP dead?

Probably, which makes me sad i wanted this one to live.

I'm still here.
