[CHAR] Dehumanized

[Nyther]

Name: Abel

Age: 32

Gender: M

Sexuality: Straight

Nomadic or sedentary: Nomadic

Weapons: Double action .45 pistol
12 gauge sidexside shotgun
Serrated hunting knife

Skills: Basic survival skills

Abilities: Slightly heightened reaction times. It functions almost like a watered down version of spider sense. This has allowed him to get the jump on most people he comes across and has saved him from certain death time and time again.

Animal Empathy (Can sense animals motives and vice versa). Having had a natural affinity to most forms of wildlife, he now can predict most animals actions. While he cannot communicate with animals, he can impart his intentions to them. This has allowed him to avoid many possibly deadly encounters with the new wildlife that now inhabits this world and has caused a few of them to come to his aid.

Appearance: Has a slight paleish hue to his skin and multiple scars due to him almost constantly attacking anyone he comes across.


Brief Personality: Originally a very timid and soft spoken individual, his physical changes have turned him into an egotistical self-serving individual who only looks out for himself and animals.

Brief Background: Being a park ranger at Yellowstone, Abel loved his job. He got to be out in nature and around wildlife constantly. Being so far out in the wilderness caused him to disconnect farther and farther with the modern world. So, when war started and the bombs dropped, he was caught completely off guard. Maybe he could have sought out shelter sooner and avoided what would befall him. Somehow, he was far away from the point of impact to avoid the lethality of it. Although, maybe what happened to him was worse than death.

He walked in a daze for months eastward. Originally he hoped to find any other survivors or even the military in hopes of being recused. With each passing day the radiation seeped deeper into his body and mind and changed and twisted both. Now, he looks to enact his own sick psychotic version of justice to anyone he comes across.

Alone or with someone?: Alone

Angel

Angel Gracie


Age:
20
Gender:
Female
Sexuality:
Straight
Nomadic or sedentary:
Nomadic
Weapons:
Handgun with not much ammo, two thin, long daggers, 50 cal sniper rifle
Skills:
Angel has very good aim, having little much else to do in her lone time than to practice shooting home-made targets. Her hand-to-hand combat is decent, having been taught.
She is a very quick and agile person, able to run for a long period of time. She also has basic first-aid knowledge. Her survival skills include hunting and fishing. She is a mediocre crafter.
Her education only goes up to elementary level, enough to read and write.
Any unusual abilities? What are its limitations? Does it show physically?:
Nothing so far
Appearance:
Angel stands at 5'8" with dark auburn hair that runs to past her chest. She keeps it in a ponytail most days and dresses head to toe in a lot of black. She often sports a black bandana to cover her mouth and nose at times. She is on the rather lanky side when it comes to her build. She is slightly toned but by no means a muscular woman at all. Her eyes are light blue and her face dotted with freckles.
She can be considered pretty to a decent number of people and possibly too tall and thin as a description to others.
Brief Personality?
Angel is not the most friendly or trusting of others. After a rough past, she has no reason to trust anyone. However, that hard past has also made her very resourceful and self-sufficient. If one were to get into a conversation with her, odds are she would be described as sarcastic and maybe even a bit rude. Her manners are not her finest quality.
She's ambitious and stubborn, always determined to get her way. It is hard to convince her to see someone else's perspective. Underneath her exterior is a good heart that will push her to stand up for others.
Brief Background:
Angel was only a toddler when the war was still occurring. She was born to an upper-middle-class family in Connecticut who already had two older children. The father had the means to find them a bunker to live out their lives in until things settled. However, disease managed to find them. By the time Angel was eight years old, her two older brothers had perished to illness. Her parents decided to relocate to Washington D.C, where most wealthy and accomplished people were being formally invited to.
At that time, Angel's mother Natalie was showing symptoms of illness despite the war seemingly being over. In the midst of relocating, they were attacked by bandits. Angel's father Robert was killed. They were older parents, well into their forties. Angel's mother was left to die while Angel was taken away by the bandits. She had overheard talks of her being good for later use that she hadn't quite understood at the time. Angel was looked after by another woman captive with the group and even taught how to defend herself from one of the bandits. When she was around sixteen years old, she took advantage of an opportunity to escape and has been on her own since then. Currently, she is moving through New York City.

Roman

Roman Mikhailov


Age:
28
Gender:
Male
Sexuality:
Bi
Nomadic or sedentary:
Sedentary
Weapons:
500 Magnum, carries a different type of knife or dagger depending on his mood but favors meat cleavers
Skills:
Public speaking and manipulation are this man's key skills. He knows how to get an army behind himself and to make others empathize with him. He is very heavily skilled with knives; it is his strongest asset. He has basic survival skills that kept him alive before his time with the Wolves but he doesn't necessarily excel in any of these areas besides swimming. He is absurdly observant and reads people quite well. It is hard to get a lie past him.
Any unusual abilities? What are its limitations? Does it show physically?:
His strange physical characteristics started with white hair and red eyes. His eyesight became keener as he gained the ability to see very long distances, then night vision naturally. Then it became almost absurd when he could see through objects like an x-ray. His other senses including his hearing ability and sense of smell also improved but not to the crazy degrees his vision did. His canines seemed to have grown sharper than usual lately and he has begun to claim that he can manipulate the temperature in his immediate region. He doesn't seem to show as many signs of aging as his counterparts, referring to himself as Peter Pan and taking interest in collecting more mutated people to call his lost boys.
Appearance:
Roman is rather tall at 5'10" and ghastly pale. His eyes are red and his hair white as snow. There is evidence of his natural brown hair in his dark eyebrows. His facial features are very distinct and sharp. There is a coldness to even his natural expression. He seems to take pride in his appearance in dressing in fairly nice clothes and having his hair nicely combed at all times.
Brief Personality?
Roman is a very calm and collected individual. It is a bit disturbing just how calm he tends to remain in situations especially in those where he displays no mercy towards others. He has a vision and he's used to doing anything he can to pursue it, numb to how it may affect others. Roman is cunning and manipulative, taking joy in playing with people's emotions. He's rather immature in that he regards everything as if it is a big game.
Many people describe him as heartless and as a psychopath with the amount of cruelty he serves to the world but no one can truly be heartless.
Brief Background:
Roman's father Maxim Mikhailov had been an active soldier in the war when it first broke out. He was born in the United States to Russia-born parents with a very strict idea of upbringing that lacked affection. Roman was always trying to impress them best he could even in his younger years but only his mother, Sofia, showed interest. His father came back from fighting when things had started to take a turn for the worst traumatized and angry. He took his anger out on his wife and child for some time, abusive and completely out of his mind before he started killing randoms, enjoying the lack of laws a bit too much and the adrenaline of all the new stuff he could get off people. Sofia took Roman and moved away from him, which was easy since Maxim didn't have an interest in pursuing them. What scared Roman's mother after that, was how numb he had become. She'd find Roman killing animals, claiming that it was for food for them but she'd catch him smiling while he did so.
Roman and she had lived in a small, unknown settlement in Pennsylvania, a few miles of their hometown. It had been peaceful and very secure. Then Roman's brown eyes started to turn red as he aged, his light brown hair turned white, and his hawk-eye sense of sight became abnormal to the point he could see through walls. Sofia, a highly religious woman, claimed that a demon had possessed her son. The small group had never seen anything like him and had no choice but to agree. With reluctant tears, she had her own son banished while he was only thirteen.
Roman grew bitter and more numb to empathy after that whole ordeal. He was forced to survive on his own for a while but he was mediocre at best at knowing how to survive in the woods alone. A group of young bandits tried to get the jump on him, but quickly realized he had nothing but his own strange sight ability, which he offered and played as his ace. Seeing use in it, they took him in and brought him along, teaching him how to wield a blade and how to kill. He eventually grew bored once he had learned what he could from them and ended up murdering the leader, a man well into his thirties and absurdly fit, in front of the others. He ended up the man with himself despite being younger than many of the members. From that point on he ended up taking the group in a different direction.
Alone or with someone?
With the Wolves, he is their leader.
Other
He has a soft spot for cats.

Jet

Name: Jet Moore

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Straight

Nomadic or sedentary: Sedentary

Weapons: A large assortment of weapons at his hideout but carries mainly dual energy pistols with two firing modes: a beam and semi-auto, frag and energy grenades.

Skills: engineering technologist, advanced wilderness survival, trained in firearms and hand to hand combat.

Abilities: enhanced intelligence.

Appearance Description: Jet is 6" tall and weighs 175 lbs. (refer to pictures for looks.)

Brief Personality: Jet is a reserved person and tends to stick to himself since he is not very good with manners or socializing due to his past and constant studies. This leads to a lot of situations where he is too blunt. He is relatively nice and good-hearted but he is not the best at showing it. He is very loyal to those he does get close to but that has not been anyone for a long time. He is a reliable and trustworthy guy, not afraid to protect others or himself. His actions could have him perceived as a bad person but it's all perspective. He is willing to do anything to preserve himself.

Brief Background: Jet grew up in Washington, D.C. His parents died in a house when he was ten years old but his family had been wealthy enough to live in a secured area up until that point. Jet was taken into an adoption centre which was overflooded with kids already. He continued his education and focused on it. He had always been at the top of his class from the very day he ever started his education. He moved on to the remaining college system in the area to pursue his studies in engineering. Jet spent his free time creating and immersing himself with technology. He barely noticed the militant rule of the city he lived in as he had always been so immersed in his studies. It was easier to forget the loss of his family if he just never stopped. Jet had been working on his own wing-suit and energy weapons in an abandoned warehouse, something mankind had never seen possible. His unknowingly enhanced intelligence allowed him to pursue such creations. Not interested in following laws, he used his new creation to go to New York City and escape D.C., which normally did not let people in or out much. Now, Jet enjoys reclusion in the abandoned city.

Silas Sloane

Age: 34

Gender: Male

Sexuality: Bi (he/him)

Nomadic or sedentary: Depends on the day.

Weapons: Remington 870 12 Gauge Shotgun, .375 Double Action Revolver, Glock 43

Skills: Literacy, Hunting, Tracking, Fishing, Firearm maintenance & repair, has one hell of a silver tongue, and is quite the brawler.

Unusual Abilities: Has a heightened sense for smelling blood. He uses this to pinpoint the locations of any living creature around him. It makes him extra perceptive within a spherical range of about 30 yards. When he hones in on the scent his sclera fill with blood. Due to this his eyes appear quite bloodshot even when he isn’t tapping into his ability.

Appearance Description: Please see above image. Dirty up that pretty face a bit, throw some scars on it, and change that perfectly white shirt for a set of more tarnished and practically (apocalyptic) traveling clothes. His hair is cut very similarly to how it appears in the photo, but it’s not as well done seeing as he does it himself with a pair of rusty scissors. He's 6'4" and about 215lbs.
Brief Personality: His sarcastic smirk makes it difficult to read him. He seems gentle and kind but despite this his crystal blue eyes always possess a sadness to them...as well as an intensity that makes him feel dangerous.

Brief Background: Silas is a Texas boy. Moving to New York found him out of his element. He missed the open plains and the quiet. There's plenty of quiet now. He often thinks about heading back to the Lone Star State to see what's left of it. Though he knows how dangerous a journey like that would be. He doesn't talk about himself or his past much, and in fact gets angry when he's pushed to. There's something he's hiding and it's eating him up inside. Anyone with a perceptive eye or a certain level of empathy can tell as much.

Alone or with someone?: Alone.

Other: He draws everyone he meets in a journal that he keeps in his jacket pocket. His artwork is surprisingly detailed.
