I actually think I'm going to have my character in the Swindler's. A gang of thieves honestly suites my character more than a motorcycle gang. Here is my CS:

Name: Leonard "Lancaster" Render. Some call him "Lanny".
Age: 24
Personality: Serious. Somewhat of a leader figure. Tough and respected. Both emotionally and physically strong. Unclear past. Rather protective and his attention is valued. It is rare that his hardened exterior breaks, but in the event that it does, it is severe. He has a weak spot for women, especially prostitutes. Is usually calm and cooperative with the members of his gang, however he has a problem with authority outside of his gang. Grows very violent when he drinks.
Appearance:
Gang: The Swindlers
Brief Bio: Lancaster was the only son to a Dutch prostitute, working in the red light district of Amsterdam. Early on in her pregnancy, she met an American business man named Frank Render who was visiting the Netherlands. Only after knowing each other for three weeks, the business man brought Lancaster's mother back to America with him and married her in none other than Crown city. While Frank played a father figure in Lancaster's life, he would never truly know his father. Lancaster's mother died during childbirth. All he knew of her was all that Frank knew of her - she was a prostitute from Amsterdam with a kind heart. Lancaster grew up as a rather quiet child. Not knowing his birth mother or father was challenging. Despite the fact that Frank had only been married to Lancaster's mother for a few months, he took on the responsibility and adopted him as his son. However, their relationship was extremely distant and Lancaster left home and dropped out of highschool at the age of sixteen.

Leaving home at such an early age had it's disadvantages. Lancaster soon got involved with the Swindlers, at age 17, as just an errand boy. However, as he grew older, he was given more responsibility, until he reached the high position he currently is at.

Other: He had an actual lancaster tattooed on his side after having his nickname become his main alias.
Just put up my first post. I was worried mine would be significantly shorter than everyone else's but it seems I was worried for nothing, lol. If there is any issue with how I started out, just let me know.
The smell of rotten flesh lingered in the air and mingled together with the undeniable scent of fear. Florence Matthews sat upon a rooftop in Salt Lake City, in the crisp air. She was level with the distant snow kissed mountains and she looked over the streets below, littered with the writhing undead. Their growls and snarls were not much different than the howling of coyotes at night or the call of a morning dove. These undead creatures had made themselves a part of nature and Florence was slowing growing used to it.

The travel to Salt Lake City had been treacherous. After getting separated from her husband back in Boise, Idaho, Florence had refused to leave the city until she found him. She found that she didn't particularly care if he was alive or frothing at the mouth and hungering for human flesh. She just wanted to see him with her own two eyes, to lay her conscience to rest. However, the city soon became overrun and Florence had no choice but to leave, abandoning whatever hope she had of seeing her husband one last time.

She initially took off by car. Many people had abandoned theirs in the middle of the road, somehow thinking that taking off by foot would be a better option. Grocery stores were raided, along with convenience stores and hardware stores. Any place that offered survival resources became like a battlefield. Florence grabbed what she could before fleeing the city and taking to the countryside. She had to leave behind most of the guns and ammunition her and her husband had, from their business, but managed to salvage three guns with cooperative ammo. Sleeping in her car and living off of stale granola bars was not particularly what she had in mind but it would have to do. At such a time as this, there was no room to be picky.

In time, food and fuel posed an issue. Food was a relatively easier to find, but fuel was next to impossible. After getting lucky a few times, Florence's luck eventually ran out and she found herself on a lonely road somewhere in Utah, with no gas. She had no choice but to gather up her supplies and continue her trek on foot. She eventually found herself in Salt Lake City. As far as she was concerned, there were little survivors here, amongst the hordes of the undead that roamed the streets. She fought her way to the tallest building in the city, climbing the fire escape until she found herself on the rooftop.

It had been two weeks since that day. Water was whatever the bucket on the roof collected when it rained and food was some canned goods she had managed to pull from the hands of a crazed woman back at the last grocery store she had visited in Idaho. She had come to terms with the fact that she would likely ride out the next good while alone. She didn't quite seem to mind. While she did not mind being in groups and sharing what she had, she found that now a days, people were only out for themselves and wanted what they hand, as well as what you had, and left you helpless. Florence was certain that she could make due on her own for as long as time demanded.

But then she heard voices - not the snarling of the undead but voices of the living. A woman. Florence scuttled to the edge of the roof and peered off into the distance. Despite the hanging fog, she could make out the figure of at least three humans near the outskirts of town. What on earth were they doing. "Jesus," she muttered under her breath. She rarely saw survivors out in the open like that, and when she did, it was only a matter of minutes before their flesh was devoured by the undead.
QT, would you mind if my character is related to the McCrays? Probably something like a nephew or cousin, I anticipate my character to be in his mid 20's.
Will we start off as a group or separately?

Looks good, lets get this thing going.
I agree with Malikoy. I'm looking at the map right now and I had said my character was from the west. Perhaps we all met up in a mid state?
Very interested.
I am fine for whatever location you would like to start in. As I am not American, my knowledge on the geography of America is not the keenest but I will direct myself to some maps lol.
