Name: Elliot Roman
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Race: Caucasian
Appearance:
Clothing: He has on a baggy pair of black cargo pants with dozens of pockets all over, some have obviously been stitched on, whether pre or post apocalypse however is up for debate. He has on a loose fitting light blue button up that has been torn and restitched all over, again up for debate when the sticking was done. Underneath that he has an old tank top undershirt on, and over it is a black trench coat, spotted and stained, well worn, but also well cared for. As with the pants pockets have also been stitched on all over the coat. He has on a pair of black gloves and a black baseball cap
Equipment: Among his many pockets there are two packs of cards, matchboxes of various levels of fullness, several small sewing kits, two utility knives, and a compass. He also has several watches, from cheap knockoffs to real deal Rolexes pairs of keys to God and he only knows and wallets belonging to a motley assortment of individuals, noticeably none being him. He carries a messenger bag over his shoulder and inside of it he has a large map of North America, with paths highlighted in different colors and notes made on different cities, about everything from who was nice there before the outbreak to how many infected the city would have in it approximately, he also has similarly detailed country, regional, and local maps, several notebooks, that he has used as everything from sketchpads to journals to plot outliners for manifestos. He also has several pens an pencils, with lead sharpeners and extra erasers.
Weapons: He carries a crowbar on his hip at all times, and a Glock 22 he stole off a cop at some point during the outbreak. It only has one bullet left. That's his rule, he has always kept one bullet left.
Bio/Background: Elliot grew up in LA and while he was bright things at home were less then swell. No need to get into the rough details, lets just say his mom was better off when his dad didn't wake up one morning. She did however leave him behind which, in his mind at the time, was alright to him. He was smart, charismatic, and young, fourteen with nothing to lose. He left home with nothing but the clothes on his back to travel the world.
That dream fell short somewhere around Ventura, but he picked up stealing and panhandling pretty well, pickpocketing came naturally to him, and when he started hustling he really did make enough to live off of, he was charismatic and clever, and best of all he had quick hands and a smile that could captivate a crowd while his nimble sticky fingers emptied all their wallets.
He eventually did follow his dream of traveling the world, though not quite as widely as he had envisioned when he first set out. He traveled all over the US, buck the boarder up top and down bellow and back again, and he noted everything he thought worth it down either on his maps or his notebooks. He lived on the streets sure, but it wasn't that bad for him, he accepted, he adapted, he survived, and in a lot of ways he even thrived.
Occupation Pre-Apocalyse: He was homeless, a panhandling, hustling, pickpocket, and a thief and a pretty darn good one.
