Theodore David Contrejas Jr. _______________________________________________ 29 | ♂ | Spanish/American _______________________________________________ IT Support Technician | Straight | Single _______________________________________________ Psychological Profile ___________________________________

Appearance Details ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Theo is an American man of Spanish descent with light skin and dark brown eyes. He stands a little over 6 feet tall, and weighs roughly 185 pounds. He is moderately muscular, but no more than a reasonably active adult male. His face is rough and gritty, but he is usually seen wearing it in a smile, so people are rarely intimidated by it. His hair is a dark brown, and it is usually cut in a classic side part. He always sports a beard which he takes meticulous care of. His clothing almost always consists of some sort of jacket -- black denim is his favorite kind --, a grey or white t-shirt, black or dark blue denim jeans, and white shoes with a black trim. He has diamond stud earrings in each ear, and wears a silver watch on his left wrist. Most of his torso and arms are covered in tattoos, but since he usually wears jackets, very little of his tattoos are actually visible.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
From what little others have bothered to ask about him, Theo was born in the San Francisco Bay Area, in a small 'shithole' of a house in the poorer area of the city. He tells others that his father was not around -- people usually don’t ask what became of him --, and that his mother moved away when he was a child. Because of this, he was raised primarily by his grandparents. They provided for him the best they could, but he went most of his life wearing baggy, hand-me-down clothing and having to find most of his meals from free school lunches. It goes without saying that, like his parents, his grandparents lived in extreme poverty. Nevertheless, Theo cherishes his grandparents dearly, and has stated that he has kept in contact with them leading up to the events of the crash.
His late childhood and early teenage years were full of fights, squabbles, and brawls. He tells people that all of the many schools he attended were always segregated into rival gangs and cliques, and that if you didn’t pick a side, you were targets for everyone. Theo says that while he made friends with anyone he could, he tended to gravitate towards the 'nerds', the 'geeks', and the 'weirdos'. He didn’t seek their company because he felt a kinship with them, he chose them simply because they were the only people who were not at each other's throats. He came to grow really close to the people in those groups, often going so far as to defend a handful of them when they were inevitably targeted by whoever felt like starting trouble.
Toward the middle of his years in high school, he started to make friends with people who best could be described as 'delinquents'. He even grew friendly towards those who had fought him and his friends in the past. The reasons he gives for doing this, is that for as shitty as those people were, they knew how to have a good time. Theo mentions that it was around this time that he started to get in trouble at school. He says that it was never anything serious; the thing he got in trouble for the most was cracking jokes aimed indiscriminately at anyone and everyone, including faculty members. He quickly got a reputation as a clown, and was invited to many ill-advised parties, of which, he was the life of.
By the time he was a senior in his high school, he was a fully-fledged member of one of the predominant gangs that operated inside and outside of his campus grounds. Theo states that if he had been in the right state of mind, he would never have joined. Nevertheless, he was coaxed into his affiliation and started a fledgling career as lowly-ranked thug. During his time with his gang, he was involved in burglary, robbery, battery, racketeering, and extortion. Records show that Theo was never charged for those crimes, but he admits to having done them to his friends.
After his graduation and for about a year afterwards, he continued his life of crime until he was caught and charged for the unlawful possession of a firearm, and was sentenced to 1 year and 6 months incarceration. During his imprisonment, Theo claims to have often reflected back on his days before his gang affiliation. He says that his old friends, the geeks, crossed his mind frequently, and that he regretted leaving them to pursue the gang life.
8 months would pass before he was released early for good behavior. With his newly found freedom, he would cast aside his self-destructive ways and seek to become a normal member of society. Theo says that his affiliates did not take kindly to his withdrawal from the gang, and was a target for them for a couple years. During this time, he reconnected with his old friends, and looked for honest work wherever he could find it. He found jobs in a myriad of different fields. From a butcher, to a landscaper, and even to a contractor, Theo dabbled in a little bit of everything, but he could not find anything worthy of a career for himself.
Eventually, after 3 years of civilian life, he would be called as a witness against one of his former gang members for a crime they had committed. He was hesitant to take the stand for fear of what might happen to him if he did, but he stood trial nonetheless. Through his testimony, his former affiliate would end up charged with 25 years to life in imprisonment. Knowing that he now be branded as a snitch, Theo pleaded with the district attorney for witness protection. The DA would accept his proposal, and he would find himself being relocated to Anchorage, AL.
The move was difficult for Theo, and he had trouble fitting in to his new surroundings. While Anchorage was similar to the city environment that he has lived in his whole life, he felt out of place. After 3 months into his relocation, he found a job at a small tech startup based in the city's downtown district. His starting position was a IT Helpdesk Support Specialist, but he would quickly rise the ranks until he found himself the Junior Supervisor to a team of IT Technicians. Theo liked his work; he felt like he finally found a career for himself. Life started to improve for him during his career at his company. He made enough money to finance both a car and a house for himself, and he started to make friends with his coworkers. He briefly started dating around this time as well, but he eventually decided that he would focus on his career instead.
4 months before the crash, he decided to establish contact with his mother. It had been almost 2 decades since he last heard from her, and he was worried about what she was like now. Theo states that he had nothing to worry about, for his mother was excited to hear from him. She told him that she had been trying to find him, but that she couldn't. Theo then began to explain his situation to her, and the two spent hours catching up with each other. They made arrangements for him to visit her at her house in Hawaii, and after the phone call, Theo immediately booked a flight with a proprietary airline that was based in Anchorage. And as the day of his departure drew nearer, Theo couldn't help but feel an overwhelming sense of excitement and anxiety.
Finally 30,000 feet in the air, Theo was one of the first people to notice that one of the engines starting to fail. His excitement turned into fear, and before he knew what was happening, the static of the cabin speakers blared to life. The captain then spoke the words that struck Theo with an insurmountable feeling of dread, "Passengers, please return to your seats. Embrace for impact".
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Theo rarely takes anything seriously. Even in the most dire of situations, he always finds a way to fit in a stupid joke or a witty quip. Comedy is a very big part of his personality and his life; if you can’t make him laugh, he usually doesn’t invest too much time into you. He is depressive, but faces it with general apathy, unrelenting humor, and the not so occasional cigarette. Insults and taunts mean virtually nothing to him, and will usually agree with and double-down on what the aggressor has to say. Because of this, self-deprecating humor is one of his fortes. He puts his needs above everything else in the world; although, he usually tries to not have anyone suffer at the expense of his gain, but he will not hesitate to do so if the benefits are great enough. He doesn’t really believe in ideas like "the greater good" and will rarely act on such things unless it directly affects him or those he cares about. All that really concerns him, is having food in his stomach, a roof over his head, and enough entertainment to fill his days -- usually in the form of night clubs, house parties, and hard liquor. He tries to surround himself with his friends whenever possible, and is known to enjoy meeting new people so long as they can keep his attention.

Appearance Details ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
With dark features and honeyed skin, Araceli is the epitome of Indian beauty. Her eyes a rich sienna, married with lighter amber flecks. Her hair is a generously saturated brown, cascading in loose waves to the middle of her back. Araceli has raised cheekbones and a narrow but prominent nose, lush lips and a sharp chin pulling her facial structure together. Her body is pleasantly curvaceous for her thin figure, slight shoulders and a humble bosom are accentuated by broader hips and a restricted waist. Drawn-out legs giving her a taller appearance despite her underwhelming stature of 5'4".
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Araceli originated from India, spending a good portion of her childhood there before her father passed. Her mother would pack up the remaining family consisting of Araceli and her brother, to live in the USA. Araceli would spend the remainder of her childhood and teenage years in the city of New York. Her mother would take on multiple jobs just to keep the small family afloat, a single mother with little to no education to aid her. Watching her mother struggle, Araceli would strive for a decent education, beginning medical school in New York before catching the attention of a model scout. Medical school would be put on the back shelf for a while as Araceli explored the life of a model. The occupation proved to be crucial, the income enough to provide for her family. Soon the job would take her to Fairbanks, AL. where she would reside for a while, participating in strenuous shoots. One evening, after Araceli had finished shooting for the day, she received a phone call. Tragedy had struck, her mother and brother losing their lives in a fatal car accident. Having no other family in New York, Araceli would remain in Alaska, abandoning her occupation as a model to take up medical schooling once more, eventually graduating as a Nurse Practitioner.
While living in Alaska provided tranquility, Araceli yearned for a new atmosphere, thus applying for and being accepted into a group of volunteers testing a new Alaskan Airline. Having been to Hawaii once before with an agency, Araceli eagerly offered her services to the airline.
Airplanes were so advanced these days, what could go wrong?
This mentality would soon dissipate as the trip took a turn for the worst. The small aircraft would be racked with turbulence, the speakers overhead alerting the passengers of their fate. Somehow, the pilot had lost all contact with air traffic control, their destination construed, path to Hawaii entirely missed leaving them airborne in the wrong direction for hours without guidance. A horrible situation would only worsen as the plane hit a storm, one last announcement instructing passengers to stay calm and embrace for impact and then...
...Nothing...
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Araceli is a very intelligent and vibrant girl, she appreciates the smallest aspects in life and lives each day like it is her last. Having lost her family, Araceli holds relationships close to her heart, the fear of losing another person often causing her to suffocate those she loves with affection and nurturing. Her past leads to episodes of depression, the sudden loss also triggering a compulsive disorder within her. However, these two portions of her personality are very minor, the bubbly more flirtatious side of her dominating.

Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Born into a rather simple family, Eric grew up trying to change others opinion of him, as something more than the child of a rather plain and boring family. His intelligence and ability in school kept him out of trouble, but drew him into the anti-social life style due to constant bullying. As an adult, he tried out for the police academy, hoping that once he joined the ranks of law he could use his intellect to become a renowned detective and live his dream, however, his anti-social ways were his downfall and he failed the entrance exam. Not wanting to keep fighting a dead dream, he has since then worked as a private detective, taking jobs the police either couldn't handle in the way the victims wanted, or simply hadn't been alerted to.
His life wasn't the most exciting, but many of his investigations resulted in the criminal's capture, or in some rare cases, death. Although not directly related to any of the deaths, Eric had assisted in causing them, forcing him deeper into his shell. His emotions were locked up, and his family and few friends, who still contact him, always had to bring up how he used to be such an energetic and cheerful person. One of his friends blamed it on Eric never once having any kind of relationship beyond friendship. He brushed them all off, and continued on with his life.
He was seeking a vacation after a dead end case, which landed him in one of the twenty passenger seats of the Alaskan Luxury plane. He wasn't looking forward to flight, but it was better then taking a boat, due to his fear of the ocean, and more importantly, what he believes could lurk within it. During the flight, he kept to himself, avoiding conversation with the other passengers, partially due to the novel he was reading. When the plane began to shake, his paranoia spiked, and he dropped the novel, waiting for it to pass, and when it did not, he began bracing himself for the worst.
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Eric is generally seen as laid back, or hostile at times, but he does it to hide his true emotions from others. He's not trusting of other people's abilities and prefers to do things himself. He often thinks of the big picture before anything, thinking out things before acting on them. His calm mind and rational way of looking at things makes him a difficult person to anger.
Relationships ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
None to note at this time.
Miscellaneous ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
He wears glasses to read, but otherwise can see just fine.

Noah was born in Dallas to a very religious, Catholic family. He had abusive parents, but believed that God and Church would help him. However, once he was 15, he came to terms with the fact that he is bisexual and felt bad about. He couldn't understand why God would allow this to happen to him. He talked about it in confession and the Priest told him to never come to church again. He was depressed abd confused. The feeling of confusion got even worse when a few months later, Noah found out that the exact same Priest who told him that he was wrong for being bisexual got arrested for molesting young boys. This is when Noah lost faith in religion, the one thing that helped him get through each day. His life became a spiral of depression. He mixed in with a bad crowd and got into drugs. Eventually, he started peddling drugs himself and, thanks to his charismatic nature, he climbed his way up the hierarchy of the biggest drug cartel in Texas. However, Noah never tried to act tough on the outside. Everybody was scared of him and respected him anyway, even though he was always listening to classical music. Noah eventually went to prison, where he spent 13 years. In prison, he worked out every day and became the guy that nobody dared cross. However, once Noah's sentence ended, like many ex-convicts he found it hard to find a job and fell into poverty.

Colton is an old white man worn down from the years of working through the elements. He is in great physical shape although he complains about his back more than he did a few years ago. Once jet black hair is now filled with grey, he gave up shaving and now lets his bear invade his face as well. He stands at 6 feet 2 inches weighing around 200 pounds. Most of the time he is wearing old plaid shirts, jeans, and steel-toed boots. The best word to describe his essence is intimidating.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
A military brat if there ever was one, Colton grew around the world. His dad was an officer, so Colton learned quickly how to behave and follow orders. The school was an obstacle for him to overcome, soldiers only need high school educations. From a young age Colton was a fighter, sometimes even getting kicked out of school before his family needed to relocate. Of course, his father always praised him for fighting, shows enthusiasm.
Eventually, Colton did graduate high school taking an extra year from missing so many classes. He was able to join the military, but it only lasted less than a year. Kicked out for punching a commanding officer. His father at that point did not want anything to do with him. Colton was abandoned… which was the best thing that ever happened to him.
Quickly Colton picked himself up and found work. Jumping from a few different jobs, mostly getting fired from violent outbursts. Eventually, he settled for lumberjacking. It allowed him to be in the woods, his favorite place and allowed him to take his rage out on nature. He smashed trees down nearly twice as fast as any of the more experienced men. Soon he became known for his skills and started being recruited across America for logging projects. Traveling around the world going from forest to forest also allowed him to pick up his favorite hobby, hunting. Colton was a natural, he already knew the layout of the forest so he could easily locate the best spots to hunt. It was something about the thrill of the hunt that got him excited, the killing was just so much fun. He would even take some rich guys out there and help them bag a buck or even shoot a bear for fun. That was when he met his wife.
Susan Meredith a rich woman from a rich family. She heard about the lumberjack hunter and needed to experience it for herself. A large man and a tough woman out in the woods trying to kill animals, well one thing led to another and they were married. Her family despised Colton but he did not mind it, in fact, he was used to it. Susan and Colton continued traveling the world cutting trees and hunting animals.
It was lung cancer that got her in the end. She died at 50. A slow and painful death. Colton watched as she died in his arms unable to do anything. He was able to afford a nice funeral for her and mourn her appropriately. They never had children. Their legacy will die when he does.
So Colton went back to work getting slower now chopping trees. The most recent job was in Alaska, simple, some trees need removal for a new construction site. That was when he got the call. His father passed away in his sleep. They would be holding his memorial at Pearl Harbor. Colton’s father was a survivor of the attack 80 some years ago and now the time had finally taken him. He would want to be buried with his fellow soldier at the bottom of that harbor.
Colton agreed. It seemed his luck was turning around when he got a free plane ticket. He sat comfortably in his seat, just waiting to finally see his father again.
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Colton is an asshole. He was raised that way, and he continued to fill his dads shoes every day. He is a sensitive man but not the emotional type more of the physical, you hurt his feelings he hurts your face. Not the smartest guy in the room but the wisest, he knows his way around the street and he won’t be afraid to rub your face in it. He never believes he is in the wrong and diverts the blame to others, but when you are on his side he will carry you to the very end. He can be a dangerous weapon or a very useful tool, it all depends on how you interact with him.
Sophia is a young white girl leaning more towards her Polish side over her Lithuanian. She has bright ginger hair that she tends to keep up to keep it out of her face. Her eyes are a bright blue which is one of the first things people notice about her after her hair. A victim of “Resting Bitch Face” Sophia gives off an impression of disinterest or disdain on first meeting, but as she always explains, it’s just her face. Standing around 5’4” and weighing at 110, her demeanor is small and timid compared to her snarky personality. She likes to wear baggy clothing mostly sweatshirts and jeans. She also has a neckless with a rape whistle on the end given to her by her mother for school. A tattoo on her right wrist of a rope being tugged from both sides causing the knot tied in the center to be under strain, symbolizing her parents’ divorce and the effect it has on her.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Born and raised in Alaska, Sophia has always been a small town girl. Thanks to her father’s job at the oil rig they were able to afford every necessity and then some. Her family was sitting very well off. Sophia quickly made friends with her neighbors and had a very privilege of childhood. Because of this Sophia thinks very fondly of how she was raised, being very grateful to her father for all that her supplies to their family and close to her mother who stayed home to raise her. It was a perfect childhood to grow up in leading to a perfect life.
The big change was the divorce. Sophia's mother left her father for some guy in Hawaii. Aparently she felt too lonely during the weeks that Sophia’s father was on the rig. Sophia's mother had been seeing this guy for a few months and finally decided to end it with her husband and move in with her lover. The divorce ruined the finance of the family, taking half of what they own and moving across the world really puts the strain on a family. Soon the house was sold, Sophia’s mom was gone, and Sophia’s life was completely flipped upside down. Sophia stayed with her father trying to hold onto her old life, school, and friends. Unfortunately, everything changed. They had to sell the house and move to a more affordable neighborhood, so all her friends were left behind. After just a month of high school, Sophia changed from the bubbly charismatic girl into an anti-social loner. Then her dad had to go back to work meaning she had no supervision for at least two weeks. That was when the traveling started. Sophia was not able to stay home alone for weeks so she was sent to her mother’s while her father was at work, then would return when he would come back from the rig.
At 14 Sophia became a frequent flyer, the first flight her father flew her down and dropped her off at her mother’s but after 4 flights back and forth she was alone. She loved visiting her mother, and her mother’s boyfriend was nice to her as well. It was the flying that Sophia hated. Being alone in the sky in a giant metal coffin just waiting to fall to the ground. As Sophia grew up she found ways to deal with her anxiety about the flight, it was just a simple herb to calm her down.
Marijuana really impacted Sophia, positively and negatively. Unfortunate she was now known as the druggy at the school causing her to lose even more friends leaving her more isolated. On the other hand, it helped her deal with her anxiety and manage her emotions about the way her life has changed. It also introduced her to her longtime boyfriend, Brent. Brent was her dealer, but he was the only person that seemed to understand her. She knew that he was seeing other girls at the same time while she would spend weeks in Hawaii, but she did not care it was an emotional connection that she was craving.
When Sophia turned 17 her father finally took her to the rig. This was the best time of her life. Her father taught her to fish in the ocean and allowed her to learn what he did to earn money to support her. This was also the moment he finally noticed that Sophia was not doing well. He became much more involved in her life when he was around taking her fishing as often as he could and helped her start applying for colleges. Soon Sophia stopped flying down to her mother and was trusted to stay home by herself while her father was at work.
Sophia finally was doing well in school even making a few new friends. Her relationship with her father really helped her get her life back together and soon she was accepted into the University of Alaska Anchorage for phycology. She was still dating Brent and smoked a healthy amount of pot every week, the only major difference was she was not visiting her mom nearly as much. Obviously, she felt bad about it, but being split between two different worlds was ruining her life and she could not survive that type of lifestyle.
After 2 more years of school, she got a phone call from her mother, asking if she would want to come down and try fishing in warmer waters. Sophia felt confident in her classes that she could take a week off and have some fun with her mom besides she never got to fish down there before it would be a completely different experience. She bought her plane ticket and was dropped off at the airport by her dad. When she arrived at the airport she was so excited that she nearly forgot to smoke a little to calm herself. After trying to light one up in the nearest bathroom and then being detained and having her drug of choice confiscated she ended up missing her flight. Luckily for her, there was a new type of airline offering free tickets. Sophia stood in front of the gate with her ticket and 20 other passengers, her palms began to sweat, and her heart began to quicken. All she could do was tell herself that she had taken tons of flights before and there was nothing to be afraid of… everything will turn out fine. Boy how wrong she was.
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Sophia is an introvert with a big mouth. More of a whisperer than a talker she always has something to say. Not much for group settings she prefers to stay with one or two people and be close to them. Sarcasm and snark are the main ways she communicates with others which most find rude or just annoying. The wall she puts up scares most friendly people away thinking she is mean or cruel, which she easily can be, but underneath all the shell is a kind girl. Growing up in with the split family it takes a lot for someone to gain her trust and once it’s gained she is always waiting for it to be broken. Sophia also seems to gravitate to older men as friends, seemingly because she was so close to her father. This also explains why she is closed off against other women, seeing them as the divide in her family like her mother was. She believes everyone has an evil side to them it is just circumstances that really bring out the true nature to an individual.

Appearance Details ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Being a model, Veronica is a very beautiful woman. Toned body, pretty face, flowing light brunette hair and keen taste in fashion. Healthy, semi-tanned skin with crisp blue eyes. Standing at 5 feet, 6 inches tall, she is an athletically minded woman. She has great cardio and can lift her own weight easily. Her appearence is striking and disarming. When not wearing high-end dresses and the like, she usually wears casual form fitting clothes like skinny jeans and flannel shirts tied up high above the waist in summer. She is quite frankly, rich, and does not mind indulging her wealth when it comes to her appearence.
Character Synopsis ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Veronica's mother and father are very ambitious people. Two wealthy, attractive people married to have two beautiful babies. Great. Another family in the upper financial echelons of society. While they did love their two little girls, they saw their life through the lense of business ventures and profit. As such, they pushed their daughters to be as successful as they could. To the Silverstones, success is determined by one's bottom line.
Often the smaller moments of parenting were missing from Veronica's life. Certainly not a neglectful relationship but it would be hard to say they were close. More instructor's and mentors rather than loving parents, but still; it got her where she needed to be. Her sister, on the other hand, was one of her constants in her life. Tumultuous relationships with various boyfriends and girlfriends, friend circles fading away, no matter what happened, Veronica's sister Cassandra was always there for her. Casssandra is an extremely intelligent woman, following after her father as a computer programmer. She is responsible for a popular social networking site, and most of the stuff she talks about goes way over Veronica's head. Despite Cassandra being the younger sister, Veronica can't help but look up to her sister.
Her modeling and acting career really took off in her twenties. Photo-shoots became a regular in her life. In the quiet moments, she tries to get better at painting, and is actually quite good at it, but not good enough to show anyone, right? Acting became an interest, and even though she's terrible it's still something to work after.
After a two year long relationship with her boyfriend Tyler came to an abrupt and unsatisfying end, Veronica decided she needed a vacation. Something adventerous, something new. Well, maybe start off small. How about a long plane ride? Not just any long plane ride, an experimental plane ride. A new airliner, so experimental they were giving out free tickets. Start off small, right? Maybe she could learn to surf, or something.
Queue, "What's the worst that could happen?", and here we are. Fucked.
Personality ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔
Veronica has had life handed to her on a silver platter. Blessed with beauty and being born into a wealthy family, she took upon the role of a model from a young age and into her early adult life. She has since acted in a few smaller movies, though she isn't very good yet. It would be impossible for anyone of her financial status to not be spoiled, even though she attempts to maintain an acceptable level of self-awareness, it's difficult to not just be a bitch when she has enough money to do almost anything she wants. She doesn't want to be percieved as shallow, which may be a shallow thing in and of itself, but she also aware of that, too. Self-doubt is a part of her life, and she often wonders how many real friends she has.
Still, she is a philanthopist and is the face of several good causes, charities for various sources. She tries to be a positivbe political influence, even when she may be a little out of touch with the current situation as no matter what happens she has a cushy safety net to fall on.

Appearance Details Will is a wiry 29 year old 6'3'', 180 Ibs soldier. He has a bit of an undercut, and generally keeps his hair out of his face. To many, Will gives an outward intimidation. His face is very angular, and has intense blue-gray eyes, which are often hard to glean emotion from. He is considered physically fit, being a marine. He has a scar, running down his right cheek, and several tattoos on his left forearm, along with a number of different scars in his torso.
Character Synopsis From the start, Will was looking after someone. Born with a twin, James, in New York City to abusive parents, he didn't have a great hand dealt to him from the get go. His parents ran one of the major taxi business's, and seemed to adamantly hate everything. Each other, their kids, their job, it didn't matter. Will grew up protecting James from their parents drunken arguments and assorted beatings. He made sure they both worked hard and got through school. They would both often come to school with bruises and cuts adorning their bodies, but most of the staff chalked it up to "Boys being boys." It took 15 years for them to finally leave. Their father, Alex, was particularly drunk one night, and brought out his handgun. This wasn't a cause for alarm, most of the time, he never kept it loaded. Will still doesn't know what finally set him off enough to actually load the gun. James was having an especially bad argument with Alex, and he brought out the gun, waving it around and acting tough. Eventually, their mom joined in and Alex got even more upset, waving the gun around more, then finally pulling the trigger. The boys watched as their mother fell to the floor, and went into shock. They didn't know what to do, so they ran. Gathered what money they could and took a bus to Maine.
For the next three years, they were essentially homeless. They made what money they could by running drugs and taking any odd job they could, and eventually, when they turned 18, they joined the military. Will as a combat medic for the marines, and James as an airforce pilot. Even though they were immediately deployed to fight Bush's war in the middle east, to the boys, it finally seemed like they had a purpose. The war divided the brothers, James not seeing much action as a fighter pilot, when Will saw heavy fighting in the middle east, and came back a different person than the boy that was sent to die in the desert. They tried to reconnect after the war, but Will was just too different, and they drifted apart.
It wasn't until years after the war that the boys got together again. A month before the fated flight, James hit up Will, saying his service as a pilot in the war netted him a couple of tickets to Hawaii. By this point, James was out of the military and lived back home, in rural New York with his wife. Will stayed in the military, serving several more tours after the war, and his leave lined up perfectly with the Hawaii trip. So, together they went, off into the wild blue yonder........
Personality Will is generally a very upbeat and protective guy. Always quick to say something dumb just to get a laugh, he was often called Jester by his squad mates. He is quick to take charge, and gets along well with others. While this is true, he is very quick to judge people that remotely resemble his parents. Since the war ended, he has been fraying a bit around the edges. While previously he had sworn off alcohol, he has recently taken up the habit, and has became more reclusive, and does not like to open up about himself with others. He will almost always focus the conversation on the other person, as to avoid himself as a topic. It has been clear for a while that he has the beginning stages of PTSD.

//Like: Working with his hands, a good beer, being around animals, medieval/primitive stuff //Dislike: Donkeys, firearms, large groups of people, pacifists //Fears: Being underground
Resources

Appearance Details Drachen embodies his last name quite well, being very ogreish. An imposing seven feet tall and built like a small mountain, dense muscle covered in a healthy layer of fat. He 'suffers' from Acromegaly, which means he's large all around and looks a lot like Shrek would if he had been human. His skin is sun darkened, his hair is wiry, and he has a couple tattoos on his arms. One tattoo is a tribal looking dragon, the other is a Norse looking bear. He's also heavily scarred, quite possibly from wrestling animals he really shouldn't have.
He keeps his hair short, almost shaved right down to the skin. What hair there is is as black as night. Bushy eyebrows rest on his heavy brow ridge and shade his almost cavernous amber colored eyes. His nose is thick, almost like a potato, and below that are a pair of slightly thick lips. Most of his face is hidden behind a braided beard and mustache that reached about mid-chest on him. When he smiles one can see tombstone-like teeth that have quite the gaps due to his condition.
Character Synopsis Drachen was born and raised in Germany out in an actual village with limited technology. Think Amish-like. In his youth he learned to work with his hands and how to hunt and fish the old fashioned way. No guns, no modern traps, no reels, no fiberglass just your own hands, bows, spears, and what you can craft from your surroundings. He kept with this mindset his whole life even when he finally left his home village.
He traveled the land, mostly by foot, and worked his way until he earned a ticket to North America. He just wanted to see the world really and this was his first stop since he had seen all of Europe.In America the rules were a bit different and the culture was strange. So many people with hurt feelings but had no issues pointing at him and calling him an ogre viking. He just shrugged it off and kept traveling. Replacing his clothing as he went along, most of it being leather anyway.
During his wanderings, seeing the sights, and checking out the cultures, he wound up signing up for something. He had come to the land by boat and wanted to see what the deal was with airplanes. He had checked some boxes, something about testing weight limits? He was roughly four hundred pounds so he'd make for a good test and not be some morbidly obese burger muncher. Drachen could actually fit in the seats without any serious modifications. He figured what was the worst thing that could happen helping people test something. Well a crash for one, and it happened.
Personality Drachen seems to have a great amount of patience. Probably from having to deal with children questioning why he was so massive. Or it could be from hunting the old fashioned way. Underneath that patience is a volcano of anger kept in check by an ocean of willpower. He has few triggers but once he's set off it's almost impossible to get him in check until he uses all that anger up. To keep all of this negativity in check he keeps to himself, hunts, fishes, and as a hobby he messes around with making and improving primitive technology.
