Well we have four, not including myself. I have two others from the Interest Check that I am trying to give plenty of time to join. But we will be starting soon. I assure you all.

I am uncertain though, of whether or not I should make an RPC myself.

Okay, thanks! I'm excited for this RP--I don't mean to come off as impatient .

Also how long has the Rochester crew been established? Should be discuss basic character relationships?

@Trev Wonderful! I will leave the window open a little extra then for you to post your CS as well, while I see if my two pending interests are going to come around.

I am so happy that I have interest in this, and I love the gathering of characters that are being made for this as well!

@Kidd The Rochester Crew has been hold up for about a month, a little more a little less, in some cases.

Name:
Hunter Monroe
Sex: Male

Age: 31 (Roughly?)

Gender: Male

Appearance:


Personality:
Hunter is the kind of person who is afraid of what seems like everything. Overall he is a caring person and if he was given the chance to help, he would. But if he was forced into a situation where he had to choose between himself and someone else he would choose himself out of fear of the consequences.

If he were to be with people he could trust he would attempt to prove his usefulness any way he can, until it starts conflicting with his fear. Overall he would attempt to use his smarts to survive instead of regular combat. In a non life or death situation he would be there for those closest to him in any way he could.

Short Bio:
Hunter doesn't remember a lot of his childhood, what he does remember is a man named Dave who took him in as a young teenager and started to teach Hunter everything he knew about survival. To this day Hunter never knew why Dave decided to help him, especially after hearing about the things Dave has done to survive at different points. Dave would teach him to fight with his hands (A skill he still is not good at really), how to filter water, how electricity works, and how to make futile dirt to grow food. And when bullets were still a thing for Dave, how to shoot.

When Hunter was what he believes to be about nineteen, Dave got sick when a looter broke into their hideout and attempted to kill him. The wound he sustained didn't kill him instantly, but the infection in it would. And due to his age, lack of medicine, and Dave just being too weak to even walk, Hunter was soon left alone. Using what Dave had left behind Hunter has been able to survive for a while on his own. But as a result of Dave's death, Hunter understood just how easy it was to die, so he stopped trusting people. Leading himself to a world of isolation.

The recent events did not leave him totally alone, he started making tabs of the people he knew were in the area, cannibalizes, loners, survivors, etc. Though his notes are not perfect, they are enough so that if he was forced into interaction he would have a good idea of who he would be able to trust and would not be able to trust. This also helps when he needs to decide his current hiding place isn't safe, on average he will change shop every couple months or so, leaving behind just enough things so he could fall back to the location if his new place failed.

In his current situation he attempts to grow food on roofs and in buildings with holes in the side of them for some of it, the rest he needs to find or steal. For water, he must keep old water collectors maintained and clean at any given point, which considering he has them spread out for the best chance to have any takes up most of his time.

Weapons:
1. A double barrel sawed off shotgun that has been noticeably taken apart and rebuilt a few times over.
*Loaded with ammunition made from scrap, and inconsistent gunpowder
*The stock seems like it has been added on after the old one was sawed off
*The effective range is roughly... Point blank, maybe a few yards if the current load was made decent, though getting of scrap blasted into you from any range would suck.
2. A makeshift hatchet, mostly used as a tool to get around or into places he would normally not be able to get into.

Equipment:
-twine
-wire and makeshift cutters
-the collection of bits used to make the shotgun shells and the gunpowder needed for them.
-A heavy jacket, arguably a tench coat
-Gloves and hats (It's New York, if you don't have gloves and hats say bye bye to your ears and fingers)
-Goggles

Other: Where Hunter lacks in his ability to fight or work well under pressure, he is able to do a lot with the things he has learned from Dave and he has learned through experience.


Note: Feedback is nice, if anything needs to be changed let me know and I can work on it!

Name: Malachi Sorin

Age: 18 years, 2 months and 5 days

Gender: Male

Appearance:



Personality:
Malachi is a bit of a perfectionist. He likes to keep things orderly and organized, keeping a notebook in his coat pocket of today's date and any other important notes. He keeps all of his items in a large backpack that he carries everywhere. He is also a bit of a pack-rat when it comes to odds and ends. He likes to hoard as much stuff as he can, even things he most likely will never use, such as pieces from a toaster oven and a toothbrush with no bristles.

He is also very quiet and usually keeps to himself, preferring to sit back and listen to people speak rather than engage in any kind of conversation. He is intelligent because of his observant personality, taking in all of his surroundings and scanning the horizon for any sign of importance.

Short Bio:
Malachi has a vague memory of his early childhood. The earliest time he can remember is when he was five years old and he was with his mother and father. They were all starving and starting to get thirsty, not having had food for several days now. His father decided that it would be best for him to go scavenging on his own while his mother looked after Malachi. His father gave both of them hugs and handed Malachi a notebook. He said to him, "Keep track of the days as I have," before he ventured off into the unknown. They waited and waited for several days before they knew they had to go searching or else they would certainly starve. Before they could leave, a group of men stumbled upon their hiding spot. "Hey Sam, look! There's some people over here," one of the men said. The man named Sam walked over and said to them, "Please, have some food. We have much more at our settlement. Come with us," as he handed my mother a potato. We had no choice but to go with them, hoping beyond anything that he was telling the truth. He took my mother and I to a safe haven and he was telling us the truth.

He grew up in that settlement, tending to the livestock, planting all kinds of vegetables and going out on expeditions to scavenge for any sort of supplies. He made sure to keep track of the days as his father had told him to, not sure why he should, only knowing that it was the only thing that reminded him of his father. His mother helped him tend to the livestock and crops as well. She also cooked meals for him and made sure to keep their shack clean and tidy. He was content with his life and happy with the way things were, until they were attacked one night. It was a fury of bodies as dozens upon dozens of cannibals pressed against the walls of their settlement, searching for a weak point. It wasn't long before they found one, forcing their bodies through the small gap. They rushed in as the people of the settlement slayed the first few with their crude weapons. It wasn't enough as the cannibals overwhelmed them and butchered them. In the madness, Malachi rushed to his shack and gathered all the supplies he could into his backpack. He realized as he readied his supplies that he didn't know where his mother was. Alone and afraid, Malachi knew he had to leave, not knowing where his mother was. He snuck past several shacks before getting to the edge of the settlement and sneaking out. He looked back once he was a good distance away, watching as fires broke out and screams were heard. Hopelessness filled his heart, but he knew he had to push on. It's what his mother and father would have wanted him to do.

To this day, Malachi wanders the streets, searching for any kind of food and water. He fills his backpack with items he thinks he could use in the future. He makes sure to still keep track of the days, as it is the only constant and soothing thing he can do with his life. Hoping that one day he may be reunited with his mother.

Weapons:
1. A very old revolver that is missing the barrel, along with a single bullet.
2. A sharp, flip knife that he found and several wood stakes that he sharpened with the knife.

Equipment:
-All kinds of random parts, such as broken pieces to a toaster oven, a toothbrush with no bristles, a fork that is missing two of its prongs, a golf ball, a large steel bowl (which he occasionally wears as a hat), and a roll of fishing line.
-A heavy coat, with a long sleeve shirt, sweat pants and tennis shoes.
-Heavy duty gloves, ear muffs and thick, big rimmed glasses.

Other: Malachi prefers to avoid fights, as he is not very good at fighting. Since he is so aware, he is usually able to avoid most people.

(obviously a lot more rugged looking than the photo)


Name: Ajit Joshi

Sex: Male

Age: 21

Gender: Male

Appearance: The picture above is what Ajit would look like if there had not been an apocalypse a few hundred years before his birth. His hair is a lot messier and the glasses that he wears, are not modern and neat, they are dusted, slightly cracked and held together with a horrendously dirty layer of tape. He does typically tend to wear shirts, as opposed to t-shirts, but this is just a matter of convenience, as they are the item of clothing most people seem to leave behind.

Personality:Despite the obviously bleak circumstances, Ajit seems to have an air of optimism. Indeed, he will go as far to make jokes about the situation he is in, which a lot of other people would not do. It was probably just how he was raised. But past this, he isn't the bravest soul on the planet. He'll try his best when confronted, but will usually take the easy way out, the cowardice's way - running. It is one of his great shames in life, this cowardice nature, as what happened due to it a while ago always fills him with a deep sense of regret and sorrow. He fully blames himself for what happened, and therefore is sheepish and shy when talking about what happened in the past.

Short Bio: Ajit grew up in a grotty run down large residential house somewhere around Batavia. He doesn't know exactly where. Then again, who knows exactly where anything is. He was raised by his parents, and their extended family. Ajit did once ask his parents what happened before he was born, but they seemed off and distant. He had 3 siblings, who were all older than him - Ajit was the last child born into what was nicknamed the Joshi Ranch. His family grew whatever food they could out of the grounds and garden of the old house. They also hunted deer and other animals from the nearby woods. Although in a non apocalyptic world it would have been considered an unfortunate way of life, the lives that the Joshis lead were comparatively luxurious compared to what most people in the area and at the time would have been living. Hell, they even managed to find some glasses in the run down house, albeit a bit small, slightly broken and dirty.

Ajit was raised with the necessary skills to survive. From his family he learned to sharpen sticks into spears and then hunt with them, how to make an effective shelter and how to find food when completely lost. When he was 9, he was already helping his family around the farm and in the hunting effort. As aforementioned, it was a simple existence, yet a sustainable one. They had enough food to last for a damn good while. And yet, they could grow more. In truth, I'm only really bigging up what he had before so I can make the next part more devastating.

They came suddenly in the night, out of the forest. Cannibals. A whole pack, like a herd of wild dogs. They brought flames. Torches. They set fire to the house and everything around it. When Ajit's family came running out, they were ambushed. They all fought against the human beasts, all except one. Ajit. He saw an opening and took it, sprinting out off into the forest, only a small rucksack of equipment with him. He decided to hed for what he hoped was the nearest city. He ended up on the outskirts of Rochester, where he lingered for a few months. Eventually he journeyed into the city, which led him to the Riches Crew
Weapons:
-Small kitchen knife
-Small crowbar
Equipment:
-LED Torch
-Box of stale bread
-A few cans of soup
-Swiss Army Knife where half of the features are broken or stuck

Other He speaks with a slight Indian-esque accent, as he was only raised by people of a similar ethnicity
