Name: Rey Velasquez
Age:23
Personality: Rey had always used to be a stern person. He would straighten his back and carry a grim look on his face. There was a serious atmosphere around him during casual conversation. He hardly ever cracked a smile. Rey believed it was the proper attitude for the current state the world presented itself. Unfortunately, he was involved in an incident that changed his perspective within himself.
He changed his personality ten-fold. Instead of a stern attitude he has a sarcastic demeanor. Rey hardly becomes serious unless the situation calls for it, but casually he does hold a smile. This doesn’t necessarily describe him as carefree, but more entertaining. Rey will feel trapped if a moment is calling for him to be serious and there is no reason for it; he refuses to listen sometimes if it will bring him down.
Faction:(Optional) N/A, but claims to be a part of Outer Banks Republic
Equipment: He carries most of his equipment within his handy backpack. Rey’s backpack contains the common necessities like bottles of water and some miscellaneous food items. Rope and a flashlight can be found inside for whenever the situation calls for it. A pair of handcuffs for multiple reasons, but no key is available.
His defense relies on three weapons he has managed to stumble upon during his adventures. For his common shootout, he hauls an efficient 10mm pistol with a good supply of around 35 rounds. His secondary weapon is called out when more fire power needed. The combat rifle is swapped out when the moment is becoming too hostile. If melee weapons are not needed, he’ll have to get up close and personal with his trusty metallic bat.
Skills: Rey is a conservative…when it comes to ammo. He does not rely on firepower to get the job done for his two weapon choices are not compatible to take down an army. He has become adept with sneaking from experience of diminishing the enemy’s defenses with a few silent takedowns. Through a lot of close encounters, he has developed a calm and collective attitude when dealing amongst stressful problems.
He has gained a somewhat understanding of collegiate wrestling takedowns and capoeira from some magazines he had read before. Rey did not receive a black belt, but he did learn two or three moves. Reading can be dangerous.
History: Rey has been by his lone some for a while. This is not to the cause of trust issues or everyone dying around him. He just has not found any friendly faces or faces he can tolerate. He is affiliated with the Outer Ranks Republic; however, this is a lie disguised as a front to convince people not to mess with him. Rey has not gone his way to find companions, if the fate presents itself with travelers to stick by his side, then everything will be okay. He managed to see it this far without having a sidekick or partner.
There was a time where Rey did have a near-death experience. During a shootout, a stray bullet had found its way through his chest. There was a chance of it coming near to his heart. Before coming to blood loss, a doctor from the town he was residing in was able to patch him up. When the realization hit that he could have died, his perspective of the world and how he behaved quickly changed.
Rey utilized a grimaced face and stern exterior because that is what the state of the world called in. He lived in a shitty world and had to adapt with a shitty attitude. Once he had his epiphany, he acknowledged he had to be more laid back. If this experience happens again, Rey wants to die with a smile on his face. Instead of frowning with the world, he wants to laugh at it in its ugly face.
