PERSONALITY
Outwardly, Lochan is antagonistic and teasing. He enjoys enraging others with his quick quips and smart comments. Despite this persona, he is a jaded, pained individual who is just trying to make it through this hell that the survivors are forced to call life.

He has a weakness for children and those who are looking or trying to help loved ones, feeling empathy for them and aids them however he can.

HISTORY
As one of the many aspiring musicians in California, Lochan was no stranger to struggling to make ends meat. He worked as a barista most days, while trying to get his name out there performing at the local bars and lounges that would have him. It wasn't easy but, with the support of his boyfriend, Jason, he was confident that he could make it through.

When the outbreak began, they did the only thing the could at the time. They ran. The couple packed the essentials of what they needed and fled to the country side, trying to avoid as many people as they could. They eventually stumbled across a small, no-name group that offered protection from the infected and raiders so long as the couple could pull their weight. To say they were gratefull would have been and understatement. Lochan and Jason were content with their lives for the moment. They were safe and sheltered, they had food and clothing and even medical attention when it was needed. They were happy. Lochan should have remeber that not all good things last.

It was on a supply run to a nearby town that it happened. The expedition was going fine, they had managed to score some antibiotics and rubbing alcohol as well as a few bags full of nonperishable food. A few of the members got a few bumps and scrapes, mainly from broken glass and ramming open a few doors so no one thought anything of the small gash that Jason had gotten from an exposed pipe. It was only a few days later when they noticed that the wound wasn't healing like it should that they realized what had happened.

Jason was Infected.

The response was almost immediate, the small colony demanded that he leave or they would be forced to kill him. Lochan was outraged at this and pled with them to ignore it since he wan;t showing any signs of being infected aside from the reduced ability to heal and slightly increased appetite. They would have none of it and eventually took matters into their own hands. They held down the former barista so that he couldn't interfere and proceeded to attack his boyfriend before his eyes. Despite their threats, they didn't kill the man. Instead they crushed his legs; rocks, pipes, bats whatever they could find were used to mangle the appendages. All of this while Lochan screamed and fought to make them stop, he swore and promised that they would just leave but the mob just continued. He eventually passed out from the emotional strain.

When he woke up, he was in the middle of the woods with a bag of his stuff and Jason not 10 feet away from him groaning and crying in pain. They stayed together until the infection had overtaken Jason completely. He hesitated, but eventually and through thick tears, Lochan killed the monster that his lover had become.

He has since been travelling, trying to avoid any groups of people. The few that he felt compelled to help know him simply as Lo, the Unloved.

APPEARANCE

PERSONALITY
Aaron has a rather calm demeanor when in tense situations, and maintains his cool even as those around him lose theirs. He makes an effort to be the one who breaks up arguments, and tries to keep everyone happy for as long as possible. However, there are
times where it all becomes too much for him and his facade cracks. Unfortunately, when this happens there is very little chance of consoling him.

Aaron usually gets along with others very well, and tries to make people laugh when he thinks they need it. To some people this can come off as not caring, but it’s quite the opposite. He is deeply affected by his friends’ death and would be willing to sacrifice himself to keep those he truly cares about out of harm’s way. However, this can sometimes cloud his judgement and affect his ability to think clearly. It can make people frustrated at times, but he means well.

HISTORY
Aaron was born into a upper-middle class family. He also had what he needed, but his parents did have to work quite a bit to keep them sustained. As such, he didn’t see much of his parents, but he still felt very close to them. Aaron always felt like he needed to prove something to his parents based on how hard they worked. Aaron excelled in classes not because of intelligence necessarily, but because he applied himself as much as possible. He soon found himself interested in being a doctor. His parents encouraged the idea, and he soon became cemented in the reality of studying medical practices. Aaron’s interests leaned closer and closer to medicine, and his academics were still doing very well. He was soon accepted into Harvard Medical School, and joined the track team.
Aaron’s life was looking better and better. That was when the parasite came. At first, it was treated as a project. They would examine the parasite and look for the similarities to others. They could go from there and see what treatments could work. The class had fun, as it seemed to be a tangible challenge that some other projects couldn’t reach. However, as the parasite came closer and closer, they began to feel a growing sense of fear and unease. Aaron began making plans with his parents for what to do if the parasite reached his college. But no plan could have prepared him for what the parasite did. Teachers at the college and those younger all began experiencing symptoms out of the blue.
Anyone who was bitten was infected.Aaron had to flee. Him and a handful of other students broke out of the dorms, fighting their way to freedom. They soon lost their way, and they began to become desperate. Arguments broke out. People were losing their tempers and snapping at the others. Aaron soon found his role as the mediator of the group. Anybody would come to him about their arguments, and he would help them solve it. Some people in the group thought it was a waste of time, but Aaron found it to be completely necessary. One good thing about their group was that everyone knew how to heal their wounds. Unfortunately, not all of them were physically adept. Aaron found himself mourning the losses of some of his closest friends. All of them wanted to visit their parents, Aaron included. But they all knew, deep down, that their parents were dead, if not infected immediately. So instead, they searched around the country, eventually finding Toxo. Suddenly, it seemed like those who had been lost had not been killed in vain. They had a purpose. They had...a home.
