Bio: He joined the Michigan National Guard when he was 17 years old. He loved everything about the Army, but he regretted not choosing Active Duty Army, as he had to get a civilian job, that job being a warehouse worker. He is an 11B Infantryman, having one deployment under his belt, to Afghanistan, and got a slew of experience from his deployment. He was made a sergeant E-5 after his first four years of service, after several other sergeants left his Unit and some spots opened up. He was attempting to earn a slot in more advanced training, such as Airborne, before the outbreak happened. He lived too far from his unit to report and is now considered missing in action.
His family is now living with relatives in the south, having escaped early on. Otis, however, found himself in Canada, after he tried to find a National Guard Unit in Detroit. After that, he kept heading east with the hopes of finding his way to safety. He has traveled by foot and by car for miles upon miles, crossing into Canada via the Ambassador bridge.

Other: "I wish I could introduce myself, but I don't remember my name anymore. I mean, I think it started with an 'r' but that's all I have left. I can't remember my name, or my parents, or my job... although my hoodie would suggest I was unemployed."
Alright, let's see if I can join in and help keep this good looking RP rolling.
