Psychology

Enthusiastic * Outspoken * Brilliant * Obsessive

Sexuality: Heterosexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Ravi is perhaps one of the most passionate people that you will ever meet. Once interested in something, Ravi will go do whatever it is within his power to investigate it and replicate it. For gaming, this allowed him to have nice character stats and items--in real life, it got him through rigorous years of medical school to become a pathologist. His determination knows no bounds and he hates the concept of being limited, whether it be by practicalities or resources. As vibrant an individual as his enthusiasm makes him, his refusal to give up can also hinder him, especially in his personal life.

Ravi also has no verbal filter. If he believes something to be true, then he'll say it. Period. He doesn't sugar coat things and he doesn't hide his opinion. And while he is incredibly smart and knows what he's talking about, there are situations where telling the truth perhaps isn't the best choice to make. It can be a bit unnerving at first, but those who get close to Ravi often appreciate his blunt honesty.

Habits: Putting his hands in his pockets, fixing his beard
Hobbies: Gaming, geocaching
Fears:

• Having to kill another person
• Deportation
• Being beheaded
• Finding Major and Clive again

Likes:

• The color blue
• Beards

Dislikes:

• The Star Wars Prequels
• Giving up on people

History

Your First Walker Encounter: Ravi was working the night shift at the morgue, when his roommate, Major, called him in a panic. Major's fiancée Liv, the assistant medical examiner, had been bitten during a boat party on Lake Washington about an hour prior. Liv had developed a massive fever, and rather than wait for the ER to see them, Major rushed her over to see Ravi at the morgue. Ravi kept Liv under observation and examined her as best as he could, but she succumbed to the fever and died a few hours later. Ravi and Major spent the night in the morgue, his friend grieving the loss of his fiancée--only Liv woke up again a few hours later. She was the one and only walker Ravi ever killed, and he regrets not doing more to help Liv to this day.

History Before Outbreak: Ravi had a fairly posh upbringing in central London, attending the best schools and getting fairly decent grades. He went to comic conventions and knew everything about anything fictional. Before Ravi was interested in girls, he was obsessed with Dungeons and Dragons. He did amazingly on his A levels and went on to study pathology, utterly fascinated with the inner workings of diseases.

He attended college in Scotland at first, before moving to the United States to complete his residency. By the time he finished, he had been offered a position with the Center for Disease Control, which he happily accepted. However, Ravi was fired from his job as a forensic pathologist just four years later. He had developed a bit of an obsession with the possibility of bioweapons, to the extent that his superiors felt it interfered with his work. He was supposed to have been researching the impact of various experimental drugs on diseases with the potential to become epidemics. Instead, Ravi prepped for biological warfare on a global scale.

But being a forensic pathologist with impressive qualifications, Ravi found another job easily. He relocated to Seattle and accepted the position of Medical Examiner with the Seattle PD. Having a steady supply of bodies pouring in, each with some variety, helped to keep Ravi focused on his tasks. However, he did start to keep rats, running minor experiments on them with his friend and assistant Medical Examiner, Liv.

By the time he was thirty, his life was relatively perfect. He was dating a feisty assistant to the district attorney, living with a tremendous bloke who loved video games just as much as he did, and holding down a steady job that he loved. His younger sister of thirteen years even passed her A levels and received admission to Oxford.

History Since Outbreak: But that all changed. After Liv died, Seattle became quickly overrun. The boat party had impacted more people than just Liv and it spread quickly. Ravi and Major narrowly escaped from the morgue with their lives, making their way to the roof. There, they met up with one of the detectives, Clive, who was helping to evacuate personnel with one of the police helicopters. They managed to get to safety, but their luck didn't hold very long. Their pilot had fainted from stress, and with Clive and Major helping other survivors, Ravi received a quick crash course in flying a helicopter.

Ravi flew them into the Wenatchee National Forrest, aiming to get to his girlfriend's cabin in Leavenworth. Instead, they ended up landing in the hardly inhabited town of Skykomish, where the outbreak had not yet spread. And although Ravi called the CDC to offer his services, especially as a responder in the area, he never got a response. The phone lines had been flooded. Instead, they used the helicopter in a search-and-rescue sort of manner, evacuating survivors from the larger cities like Seattle and Tacoma. Skykomish was the most populated it had ever been, though the flight missions stopped when Seattle was deserted and Tacoma was bombed. (But it's Tacoma, so no one was really surprised to begin with...)

The first year, things held steady. They managed to get a small organizational system working, but people soon divided themselves off into groups. Infighting for resources and territory tore the group apart, rather than any threat from the walkers. Ravi fled with Major and Clive in the helicopter, making it as far as Cashmere before it finally ran out of fuel. There, the three men commandeered an RV and headed east, scanning the radio waves for any signs of life or survivors.

For the next two years, the three men were on an apocalyptic road trip of sorts. They came to know the RV as their home, staying with settlements for a week at most. The boys would help those they came across with medical attention and training, perhaps being some of the few decent guys left around. But Major had been a social worker, Ravi took the hippocratic oath, and Clive was a police officer. It was in their nature to help.

By the fourth year, they found themselves in Alabama. Survivors were harder to come across, and settlements were distrustful of them. They had learned to keep to themselves by that point, helping strangers who had been stranded, but never large groups anymore. But in December, when Major and Clive were off gathering food supplies, a hoard came across their makeshift RV-camp site. He never saw his friends again, and after waiting at the rendez-vous point for a few weeks, Ravi moved on. With what meager supplies he has, he's hoping to come across a friendly settlement, and offer his medical expertise in exchange for food and shelter.

He hasn't given up hope that Major and Clive are alive, of course, but he knows he'll never see them again.

@Morose Okay, couple of things. He doesn't quite have the background for pharmaceutical production. Sure he would have an understanding of chemicals and how they work with the body but not enough to actually make "medicine" on that grade level. (Which really isn't an issue since it isn't something we need filled in the rp. Chloe and Niesha can handle that and Ryan has street drugs.)

General Surgery is up there, depending on his degree. Seems it is in pathology and not medicine. Surgeons take a different medical path and that isn't required to be a pathologist or examiner. So might want to add in some more to the history there.

The helicopter skill, he did a "crash course" I see but would need more training in the history to actually count it as a viable skill.

Also, under extras, either need the required information or a note about it being in previously accepted cs's just to cover the bases.

Color code, I swear someone is using one close to that or are they dead? It's 6 am and I haven't had enough coffee yet ><

[Lady Absinthia]

Okay, Gavin is fun. >.>

[Oliver]

My post might be a little late, like tomorrow or something. Yesterday was opening night for the play I'm in, which is going to run all week. I'mean also writing up a massive novella of a collab pistol for another RP. So yeah, I'm busy. But I have not forgotten you.)

[Lady Absinthia]

@Oliver K, you are only on day two so shouldn't be a problem. Just keep up with the reading as you can. Move Ciel through the scenes when you get back - since he is quiet, shouldn't be an issue. As far as clothing goes, Miss Sally or Meg would have gotten him something together - whether he has it or not is up to you. Can get it from Miss Sally's in your next post if needed.

[Morose]

@Lady Amalthea Okay, made all the edits I believe. The color code is the one I use for Cecily and Nora, maybe that's it? At any rate I checked and the closest color is Kris. I can swap it out for a different shade if that helps?

He went to comic conventions and knew everything about anything fictional. Before Ravi was interested in girls, he was obsessed with Dungeons and Dragons. He did amazingly on his A levels and went on to study surgery initially. However, in the middle of his third year of medical school, he took an upper division anatomy course, where they covered a unit on anatomical pathology. He fell in love with pathology, becoming utterly fascinated with the inner workings of diseases, and changed his career path that semester. It meant a few extra semesters of courses, but he didn't care.

Although his university was in Scotland, he moved to the United States to complete his residency. By the time he finished, he had been offered a position with the Center for Disease Control, which he happily accepted.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Morose That's probably it, with the color. Everything looks good. You can move him over to the CS tab. When you want to bring him in, pm me and we can work on something. Thinking maybe pair him up with Gavin?

[Morose]

@Lady Amalthea Pairing him up with Gavin sounds good to me. ^^ I'll send you a PM later today/tomorrow.

[Charnobylisk]

Yay Ravi. Is it bad I'm half hoping one of my guys dies so i can bring in my latest backup? XD

[Morose]

@Charnobylisk Depends. :P Which one do you want to kick the bucket? I'm slightly hoping for more of mine to die, so that way Chloe can get plot armor.

[Charnobylisk]

@Morose genuinely not sure at this stage. I'm more wanting to keep froggy because he's the best <3

[Oliver]

@Caits I think Ciel got taken to Tatiana's place with Meg, so he's not at the wall anymore.

[MarshiestMallow]

Oh

Damn

Thats what i get cor posting while sick

Ill edit
