[CHAR] World Long Gone

[Fubsy]

Daniel Ortega

Name: Daniel Ortega

Age: 27

Gender: Male

Description:


Backstory/Bio:
In a land where only the strong survive, Daniel's birth was just another burden. Daniel born into a gang of scavengers. Weak at birth and only getting weaker, no one expected him to live longer than a year. Even his mother considered throwing him out into the outskirts as mercy. It was only through his grandfather, the gang's hearty leader, that Daniel managed to survive.

His grandfather, Marcus Ortega, was a large man. Though reaching old age, he was still as fit as a bull and just as strong. He became a sort of mentor towards Daniel, passing on his methods of survival. Soon, he learned how to hunt, fight, and--most importantly--heal.

Daniel was drawn to the ancient medical books his grandfather had managed to salvage. Often times, he'd spend hours studying and working, determined to no longer be the deadweight. Soon he learned how to fix bones, which herbs to cure illnesses, and save lives.

But everything changed on one drastic night. A rival gang had launched a surprise attack on Daniel's, raiding and ravaging their camp. Despite his frantic insistence on helping, his grandfather sent Daniel away to hide in the nearby forest. When the attack was over, nothing remained. Everything and everyone was gone.

With no home left, Daniel took to wandering the land on his own. He now travels from settlement to settlement, exchanging supplies for his healing talents. All for the sake of survival.

Personality: It's hard to like Daniel the first time you meet him. Or the second time. Or most of the time, for that matter. Stubborn and sarcastic, he's unapologetically blunt, and won't hesitate to snap at even those more powerful than him. Despite his prickly exterior, Daniel cares deeply for the few folks that manage to stick around. He shows compassion through actions, and will risk everything to protect the people he loves. He's not much of a fighter, preferring to stand back and assist rather than get up close and killed.

River Monroe

River

Name: River Monroe

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Description (detailed and/or a picture): River has short, black hair that barely reaches her shoulders, with a distinct red streak. The only real identical feature between the two are their eyes. Both of the sisters have light hazel, almost just green eyes. River is shorter than her sister by an inch, being at 5’7”. She is petite and small built, but was an athlete before the world ended so is very fit.
Appearance

Backstory/Bio: As the younger of the two girls, River grew up being babied, which she enjoyed for a few years. But when she was old enough to understand her sister’s jealousy she quickly resented and put an end to the babying. She always wanted to be like her older sister, Leanne.

When River started high, they became one-sided enemies. Leanne seemed to hate her but River loved and admired her sister. Throughout her high school years Leanne picked on, bugged, and made fun of he, but she did nothing. She stuck her nose in a book and accepted it.
River wasn't antisocial, just no one understood her completely or why she put up with what she put up with. River grew further from her sister through school and worse at home. Things at home began to grow tense as their parents began to fight more often and loud crashes would keep the her up in the attic, reading as she avoided them. Their parents fought physically often as well. So seeing that, River decided learning self-defense would be the best way to protect herself against them.

When River turned 18, she moved to Colorado but her sister stayed in the same home. Even after bother their parents died in a car accident. The distance was a bit difficult for River at first but as she met people it was easier. And by the time she graduated she had a few close friends and a bigger collection of novels and books. She lived her life peacefully until the bombs began to drop. She watched as bombs hit major cities first and fear overtook her heart.

River quickly left the city and went out on the road into the mountains. Frantically, River called and messaged her sister to meet up with her, hoping she wasn't already too late. Soon bombs began to drop more frequently and in smaller towns, devastating the world, so she decided to stay in the middle of nowhere until the war was over. River knew from all of her reading that the outskirts were the best places to survive.

Hoping that her sister was okay, she headed back to her barren wasteland of a hometown. Walking through the ruined graveyard of houses she stopped at hers and prayed her sister would still be alive.
Don't let me be too late...

Personality: River is kindhearted and sweet. Of the two sisters, she is the more sensitive and emotional one. It could be said that she has enough emotions for the both of them. She is loving and caring to everyone, but cam be extremely shy. Shyness is her main downfall, however she is social when she knows people. Even before the world ended she wasn't very social and more kept to herself. The awkward, bookworm as her sister called her.

She doesn't think that killing first and asking questions layer is the way to go, unlike her sister. River is the complete opposite of her sister when it comes to morals. She also still believes the world can be fixed, but has almost given up on trying. Now she just yearns to get through day after day and survive the longest she can.

Leanne, Lea, Monroe

---

Leanne

Name: Leanne, Lea, Monroe

Age: 26

Gender: Female

Description (detailed and/or a picture): Leanne is a blonde, hair that reaches the bottom of her back, with the same identical eyes. She is 5'8", taller than River. Leanne has a small build making her very skinny, and is about as strong as she looks, but is still very attractive. Her thin legs make up most of her height, then her skinny torso gives her the rest.

Appearance

Appearance, Just no pointed ears.

Backstory/Bio: Being the older sister, Leanne had to grow up faster, which put a rift between them. It caused Leanne to hold resentment against her sister for all the spoiling she received. Her jealousy and resentment turned to hate as they grew up, and caused Leanne to act rudely and plain messed up to her own sister. However, no matter how mean Leanne was to her, River never hated her back. River never did a thing back, just smiled or read her books.
When River got to high school, Leanne got worse. Leanne hated her but River loved and admired her sister. Throughout high school Leanne picked on, bugged, and made fun of River, trying to get he childhood friend in on it as well. He never really did, but he was still her friend, which made her feel somewhat secure. She enjoyed his company in her classes and outside of school.

Once Leanne and her friend graduated, Leanne left River alone and stopped bullying her. But when River graduated she moved away, leaving her behind. Without her little sister Leanne turned to the people she knew in school. They turned her to drinking and doing drugs. At first Lea refused, but when Marcus left for the military she felt as if she had nothing left to lose. Both of their parents passed away shortly after Leanne's 24th birthday and gave her even more of a reason to party. She ended up dropping out of school and loosing all of her "friends".

Leanne became antisocial, just and no one understood wanted her around. Things at home began to grow tense as rent was hard to come by for her. She spent all her money on alcohol, leaving none to pay for the house or her car. Finally Lea's car was repossessed, leaving her with no money and no transportation. Eventually, they also took the house from her, but it was luckily bought by one of her other old friends that pitied her so bad he let her live there with him. Their deal was she paid rent with her body. Lea became his toy for a few months then lost off ability to feel due to the trauma. She would take her money and drown herself in alcohol every night.

Her drinking problem

Leanne drinking

When the bombs started to drop, Lea didn't think much of it at first. Then she began to see it as her way out of her miserable, self-harming rut. Her life had turned for the worst, but now she was going to get out of it. She had always had big dreams and ambitions, and was very proud of her sister being successful. Lea never thought she would go down this path. As the bombs drew closer, everyone began to leave the town. Lea's landlord left, without telling her, to die. Leanne just took shelter in her favorite bar with all the drinks she could ask for since the owner was gone or dead, perhaps even both. Crawling into her dark deep pit, Leanne wanted her little sister more than ever, feeling remorse for the first time in her life, and screamed her name out over and over crying as she did so. She thought her sister never deserved to die this way and wanted her more than anything to tell her sorry before they died.
'Nothing haunts you more than regret.'

Personality: Leanne is withheld, she isn't social unless she is drunk. Of the two sisters, she is the cold, stern, and heartless one. Leanne got all of the mental strength while her sister got all of the emotion. Leanne is almost void of emotion and feeling. She does not know remorse.

Leanne is a more kill first ask questions late, with a lack of morals, type of girl. Leanne and River are complete opposites when it comes to thinking through a situation, Leanne acts more on impulse. She had lost all hope in the world before the war even began. She just wants to survive and that is her only concern, no matter what it takes.

Jace White

"Not everyone in the wasteland is a good person."

Name:
Jace White

Age:
27

Gender:
Male

Description:


Backstory/Bio:
Jace was a young man living in Virginia before the war got really bad. Working in a coal mine was hard back breaking work, but it made Jace strong. A strength he would come to heavily rely on in the events that would follow.

As life continued for many people the war with the rest of the world was beginning to reach a dangerous peak and soon America was pulled into the battle.

At one point in the fighting, the US Government issued a draft to boost their military power, Jace was one of the unlucky bastards who the military forced to fight. However Jace was a proud american and took up his rifle without question or complaint.

Jace was trained as a infantry soldier but after his first tour it was clear through his quick thinking and expert judgement he was meant to be a leader. Jace quickly rose through the ranks and became a lieutenant, soon after that he was assigned a new position on a squad codenamed Darkwater. They were better known as The RedDragon Squad. They earned this nickname for their use of the military's new smaller compact flamethrowers that could torch a man to bone in a matter of seconds. The RedDragon Squad were used for clearing out people who were dug in, be they enemies or civilians.

Jace was already a darker man than the one who had left Virginia and when he was placed on the squad he only continued to sink further into the darkness within himself, lives no longer had value to him, every single person he saw was just a piece of meat. Another lamb for the slaughter.

The military had created a monster and each person who burned in the flames of his wrath only added fuel to the fire, Jace was gone and whoever had replaced him was much colder than the Virginia country boy.

When the bombs started falling Jace was at Fort Valor, an old military base that had been reclaimed by the government when the fighting had started. The base was fortified and yet luck seemed to be against him. One fateful evening there was a breach and a large group of raiders tore the base apart. Jace having been down at the firing range a few miles away was spared, he and his friend Joel came back to base only to find it ruined and everyone dead or dying. After some careful planning the two men used their clearance codes to get into the sealed weapons locker and load up to try and make the trip all the way to a secret military base in Colorado. Joel went his own way hoping to find his young wife alive, while Jace continued on his own.

Personality:
Harsh and unforgiving, Jace doesn't accept failure and has a skewed view of life. Often the kind to simply walk by someone in need because what's the point in helping them since they're going to die anyway.

STILL A WORK IN PROGRRSS

Name: Dmitri "D" Surge

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Description: The first thing people notice about Dmitri is his scar on his left eye, forcing it closed. His scar runs down the top of his left eyebrow all the way down his cheek. Dmitri has blue eyes, visibility only in his right. Aside from his face, his hair is brown and straight. He has a beard, a patch of hair on his chin and under his bottom lip. Dmitri stands at about 6'4", usually towering over most people. He weighs just over 220 pounds, muscle adding to his weight. Dmitri has a very athletic, muscular build.

Dmitri wears a blue shirt that reveals his muscles just a bit, the shirt tight on him. He wears a pair of black jeans, a slightly baggy, but nothing too odd. He wears black combat boots as well. He sports an eye patch to cover his damaged eye.

Backstory/Bio: Dmitri was born to a militaristic family, his father making it mandatory for him to join at 18. Dmitri agreed and began training and working out. He was top of his class, trying his hardest to impress fellow soldiers and leaders. His father got him promoted, a "gift" for Dmitri's hard work.

After completing numerous missions with lower ranked teams as leader, he finally began doing more rigorous missions. He did things from hostage recovery to protecting VIPs. One mission proved to push Dmitri, however. He was assigned to infiltrating a terrorist hideout alone as his team secured the perimeter. He got through most of the building, but two people remained. While detaining the first, the second surprise attacked him, cutting into his face and left eye. He quickly executed the enemy, but was forever scarred with the grim reminder of what the military does to you.

Dmitri was then sent to the US to rest. He resided in California, in charge of housing Russian VIPs that were targets of terrorists. Dmitri was home when the bombs dropped, hiding in a closet as that was the only spot he could go. Afterwards, everything was gone. He walked around the city of Los Angeles, finding nothing but death and destruction.

After a while, he came to terms with everything and became a scavenger. He killed when necessary and shared if he felt like it. He wanders around the country, looking for somewhere to settle.

Personality: Dmitri is quiet. He acts first, talks second. He won't hesitate to execute who he sees fit. He's a brutal man, often beating his enemies to death when necessary. Dmitri doesn't like letting people get away with wrongdoing, usually chasing them down to kill unless stopped.

Despite Dmitri being Russian, he doesn't have a thick accent. He picked up a very "American" accent and is able to be understood.

Body shot, with gun

Backstory/Bio: At a young age Serah was concerned with all things beauty. Being brought up in a middle class family, she was able to stay caught up with most of the latest trends. She was well known for her style in school and was one of the "popular" girls in school.

Although she was well known in her younger years, high school hit her like a unannounced, no one cares train. She quickly lost her popularity and all status ranking when she became a freshman. Bullies began to set their sights on her and she became the victim to countless pranks and tricks. But even though her popularity went down the drain her looks intensified. She was a gorgeous redhead, with tiny speckles of freckles lightly dusted around her nose and cheeks. Taking note of her looks, a modeling agency called her parents and asked to have her.

After an interview with one of the agents, Serah begged her mom to let her. Feeling it would help her in some way, her parents agreed and let her become a model. At first it was a part-time thing due to school. After high school she devoted most of her time to modeling and cosplaying. Dressing up was her favorite thing to do. And it suited her. As her career began to boom, her interest in the beauty of the human body did as well. She became more interested in fashion as well. She began to model and create her own clothes.

Once the bombs went off and the world went to shit, Serah was left with no one. She had left her town house apartment in Seattle. When she saw the bombs drop in her own city she evacuated the city with only a backpack as quick as she could. Trying to avoid major cities.

Personality: Serah is not exactly your ideal survivor per say when you talk to her or even look at her, but she has a mind like no other. Growing up she was popular and known by most everyone. Although, she did have many bullies that terrorized her through high school. She looked gorgeous but weak as a young girl. But as she got older Serah found her calling in fashion and beauty. Serah enjoyed her books and learning, but found herself enticed by the beauty of the human body. She prefers the company of woman and is in fact attracted to both sexes. She doesn't care much for rude, obnoxious, or distasteful people. Surrounding herself with positive minds, she enjoys the peace and calm it gives.
