Placeholder for MY charactersName: Navarro "Nav" Riker
Age: 32
Appearance (either description or picture):


Job (pre-plague unless character was born after): Carpenter
Biography:

At 32 years old, Navarro spent his entire life working in carpentry. Always skilled with with his hands, he loved to build. He also loved to whittle, and as a child he had a large collection of hand crafted figures. His life was a pretty ordinary one. He had his two best fiends, Christa and Vincent, and a cat.

When the virus hit, Nav was in Alexandria VA, working on an apartment complex in the tourist trap town. It didn't take long for the WHO to act, quarantining first state borders, then the individual cities, and finally the entire country. Navarro was stuck in Alexandria, unable to get to those he cared about.

In less than a year, society itself had collapsed. The virus, which the media had nicknamed the Withering Scourge, tore through humanity. Later, Society would shorten it to The Scourge or the Withering. Most who have survived this far are either immune or just plain lucky. People still take precautions if they have them. N95 masks, respiration masks, hazmat suits if they can find them. But the truth is, the disease moved too fast. It burned itself out before it could finish off humanity. Maybe there are a few places the virus resides, but mostly it is gone now.

Still some infected do exist. Some that have yet to die. They are insane, they only wish to kill or maim, to spread the disease that has infected their own brains. They are not smart, they have been overcome. Early symptoms include fever, hallucinations, and a penchant for violence. Then bleeding from the Orifices, such as the eyes, mouth, and nose. Then...death.

Navarro himself doesn't know if he was immune or just lucky. He is just trying to find his friends, to save them from the hell that awaits. He believes Humanity can conquer this, and he strives to triumph over the tiny, seemingly insignificant virus. And he is willing to sacrifice all for said belief.

Name: Jack Oakson

Age: 16

Appearance:



Job: None, born after apocalypse began.

Bio: Jack was born into Hell. Or, that's what his mom called it. They were actually in Salisbury, Maryland. She was determined to keep him and his brother shut out from the plague, and to give them a proper education. And she right well did. Jack was taught how to do Calculus, infer the differences between each layer of Earth, and how most civilizations rose and fell. When his brother caught the virus, Jack's whole world was turned upside down. His mother acted like his brother was healthy, and pretty soon she had it. Determined to not catch the virus, he grabbed the rifle his father had from the military, a M4. He quickly killed his brother and mother. After what happened on that day, Jack was never the same. He quickly became a nomad, traveling wherever he needed to go.

Personality: Jack is slightly cold, often solving things by taking the most brutal and efficient approach if it means saving his friends and himself. Even though he cares for his friends dearly, he would never sacrifice himself for them, and openly admits to it.
