Personality: The shortest way to describe Arthur is a spoiled, insensitive, childish, narcissistic asshole. He's a pretty nasty person who has no problem fighting people, he doesn't see an issue with pushing someone down to push himself forward and he's not supportive of people, he doesn't go out of his way to help anybody and he only really cares about himself. He has severe attitude and mental problems that have been unsolved due to his upbringing and these hinder his interaction with other people immensely given that he thinks lesser of everyone around him and doesn't hesitate to share any of his thoughts at any given time. However, he is not a negative person in his attitude, often maintaining a positive demeanour for all the wrong reasons, as he has enjoyed the zombie apocalypse believing it to be a challenge that God has sent down for him to defeat and believes that himself and anyone who follows him will survive it given that he is, well, himself. He is not a team player by any means and does not believe that other people can do anything to him, leading him to get into bad situations with others. One notable fact is that he has a vile temper that whilst not instant can be set off quickly.
Biography:
Arthur was born in Cambridge to an upper class, wealthy family. His father was a wealthy businessman and his mother was a lawyer, so it led to a fairly distant upbringing. His parents thought that to compensate for the lack of presence in his life, they should spoil him and this ended up building his unreal arrogance. The lack of interaction also meant that he turned to books and the internet, becoming more of a recluse in his early school years despite his personality being the polar opposite of the stereotype.
He rapidly changed throughout the years, listing too many different phases to mention. Being an egomaniac did have the perks, as he definitely wished to not be shown up and proved wrong, so he was constantly striven to be the best at everything he did. He was a standout person all in all, and whilst not popular in the sense of having many friends, he was definitely popular in the sense that people did have a respect for him, however bizarre he was.
Before long, Arthur ended up in his hometown university. He however wanted to branch out from education, seeing it as a shackle that had mostly been holding him his entire life from experimenting and seeing what was beyond the world of the curriculum so he took a gap year. This came in many forms, whether it was music, fashion design, sports, art, writing or even poetry. One thing that he had always wanted to do was travel however, so he had set himself up for a road trip throughout Europe.
His road trip began smoothly. He began his journey in Poland, and went along the way to the Belgian border before everything kicked off. This was however the beginning of a problem for most but not for Arthur. Rumours of the walkers had spread across the continent as quickly as people were being infected, and before long, Arthur found himself in the thick of it with nothing but what he had brought with him, with no way to contact his family, friends or associates. He however, did not see this as a problem. His perception on the situation was that he would survive because he was simply better than those who had fell to the virus. Even despite his twisted mentality, he managed to survive by working with other people much to his discontent
Other: Is an exceptionally talented musician. Is also quite devoutly religious
