[OOC] The Walking Dead: Safe Haven -CLOSED

[Demonic Angel]

@josephb I was more for the bad guys. Though I wouldn't mind doing the whole puny god thing. :p joking.

[Demonic Angel]

Cool. I'll get her up as soon as I can. I still have a collab and post to start on in another rpg. I'm not sure if I will be able to provide two posts a day but again I will try to keep up and do it.

[josephb]

@Demonic Angel It's two posts a week not day. :p That would be asking a bit too much. Haha

Name: Alex Hill

Gender: Male

Age: 19

Birthplace: Chapel Hill, North Carolina

Appearance:
5'11" with dirty blond hair and blue/green eyes depending on the lighting. Fairly muscular but rarely show emotion on his face.

Personality: (Introverted/Sensing/Thinking/Perception) To most Alex appears cold and standoffish, but those who know him well realize he is just a quiet guy. He can seem rude but that is only because he is very direct and rarely lets bias change how he deals with things unless he REALLY dislikes someone. He is fiercely loyal and if someone hurts or wrongs someone he cares about he will defend them, but he rarely defends himself. He loves bringing characters to life and enjoys making people happy despite not seeming like it. Ever since the outbreak he has trouble trusting people and it takes a lot for them to earn it. Until they have earned his trust though he won't take his eyes off them. He does however pretend to trust them and he is very convincing.

Occupation before the breakout: College Student

Skills: Good shot. Fairly decent at fighting. Good actor. Great driver.

Fears/Incompetencies: Large numbers of people. That someone he cares about dies because of him. Will every now and then 'stick his foot in his mouth'.

Equipment: A katana he inherited from his grandfather. A bookbag with some water, food, and a change of clothes, an Atlanta Braves Baseball cap.

Group: He and his siblings are members of a democratic survivor group south of Dana Point.

History: Alex is the second oldest of his siblings. When he was younger he connected fairly well with others, but eventually someone really close to him betrayed him. Also almost all of the friend groups he has ever been in tend to have a large falling out leaving him to have to decide which side he would join. He never could choose so he always got left behind. Over the years he closed himself off emotionally to others and rarely opens up anymore. He went to college in California close to Dana Point and his siblings were luckily in the area during the outbreak.

[Demonic Angel]

Hey can't be too carful.

[josephb]

@alexfangtalon The pictures fine, you might just want to add a sentence or two about his appearance to flesh out his look a bit more. Also you just need to add another fear/incompetency. You should be good after that! :)

[alexfangtalon]

Should I make a short thing about each of his siblings?

[josephb]

You can if you like. :)

[josephb]

@alexfangtalon does your group have a name?

[Belle]

Hey there! I know it says the youngest your character can be is ten but I was thinking about making a woman who has a small baby? Would they be acceptable? If not no biggie I can leave the baby out. I just thought it might make an interesting addition.

[alexfangtalon]

@josephb They are with the second group that we were talking about. If anyone else was gonna be apart of that group I didn't want to take away their chance of coming up with a name.

[alexfangtalon]

@Belle The character you directly control has to be at least ten so it should be fine but I'd still wait for Joseph's response.

[josephb]

@Belle yeah that's fine! The minimum age is for the character you're playing, not who's there.

@alexfangtalon No worries, it was just so I could put your name in the character part.

[Belle]

@josephb

Yay Thank you!!
I will put up a CS!!

[Belle]

Okay working on my girl. Anyone want to volunteer as her baby daddy?

[Belle]

Name: Kathryn (Kat) Monroe

Gender: Female

Age: 22

Birthplace: Eagle Ridge, Nevada

Appearance:

Personality: Kat can seem cold at times, but she is just reserved. Even before the outbreak she didn't like to rely on people or let them be a major part of her life because in her experience they move on after a while and leave. You get one chance with her and if you give her BS she will not only call you on it she will not let you forget it. But where her baby is concerned she is the exact opposite. Kat is warm and loving towards her baby, almost like a split personality considering how she responds to everyone else. Try to hurt or take her baby, you will wish the walkers had gotten to you first.

Occupation before the breakout: Blackjack Dealer at the Diamond Casino in Las Vegas

Skills: persuasive
excellent BS meter (cuz of calling bluffs and spotting card counters on her former job)
quick reflexes (again, former job)
knows a few pressure point moves but is not an expert fighter
can fire a gun and is an average shot

Fears/incompetencies:
she will do anything to keep her baby safe and if her baby is in danger she tends to not think clearly making her rush into things blindly
has a temper and can get loud when angered
quick to judge people
not very forgiving
can be cold and doesn't seem to like people, but doesn't want to be alone

Equipment:
Bag with a few baby supplies (a bottle, a pacifier, a few baby clothes and makeshift diapers, ect)
small pocket knife
canteen
matches
a change of clothes
crackers and jerky
small mirror (for signaling)
hair brush (handle is broken)

Group: on her own in an abandoned house

History: Kathryn was born to a Russian immigrant mother and a dead beat alcoholic father. Her mother died from sickness when Kat was a teenager and she hasn't seen her father in years. The move to Las Vegas was a good change from the moderate sized town she was born and raised in. She got a job quickly as a dishwasher at the Diamond Casino. She worked her ass off and the boss noticed, promoting her quickly because of her hard work and dedication to the job. She moved up in rank to waitress and bartender before switching to the floor. She has been a blackjack dealer for over a year and is excellent at her job, knowing how to flirt to keep the people in their seats but having a steel spine to make them leave when they were no longer wanted.
She had very few friends, no romantic attachments and no responsibilities to anyone but herself and she liked it that way.

Then one night a handsome man with an accent to die for sat at her table. He impressed her with his bluffing and his kind nature. They talked and she found herself telling him things she hadn't told to people she'd known for months let alone hours. After hours of playing, talking and drinking she found herself inviting him back to her room...

The next morning she left before he woke, leaving only a note to thank him for everything and enough money to cover the drinks he had bought her.
Nine months later she got the results of that one night stand : a beautiful baby girl with her father's blonde hair and sweet nature. For the first time in a long time Kat found herself loving something more than herself. When the outbreak happened she swore to do anything to protect her baby. And she has...
She thinks about Grace's father sometimes, wondering where he is now and if he is still alive. She dreads the day that Grace is old enough to wonder where he is and asks questions that Kat can't answer.

Kat's baby girl - Grace

[josephb]

@Belle I'll read you cs in the morning, a bit late for me right now! :)

[Belle]

@josephb
That's okay. It's not finished yet. Waiting to see if someone wants to volunteer as her baby daddy.

[tex]

@Belle I would offer up Alex, but him having a biological child would make little to no sense considering his bio, sorry.

There's definitely room for romance, but only time will tell IC. Alex is polar Opposite to Kat in several ways though, so I don't see them getting along very well, let alone developing any romantic interest in each-other, lmao.

[Belle]

@tex you never know. They say opposites attract. Plus she is capable of warmth and love as long as you have earned it. She just doesn't dish it out to everyone.
