Personality
It is somewhat difficult to get to like Evie. She can be pretentious and judgmental and often times puts down others when she doesn't even know it. She hates people who are immature and unprofessional. Subsequently, she is well composed and organized and expects others to be. However, while Evie likes to control the world around her, she has no control over her emotions. Anger, fear, sadness, these can all ruin her perfectly coordinated plans rather easily. Evie can have a breakdown and not even know its coming. Nor can she get herself back together easily. Yet, this emotional side of hers is her most redeeming quality. She loves easily and is more trusting. She is generous and willing to help those in need. And despite how in control she likes to think she is, she relies on others for support when she needs it. 

Bio
Evie was born to Tomas and Darcy Ryan, a couple straight out of a romantic comedy. Cute and madly in love they were happily married and had three children. Evie was the oldest, followed by her brother Chase, and then her baby brother Bryan. However, when Evie was 9 years old her mother was murdered while trying to stop a deranged man from attacking an elderly woman on the street. The family was devastated, especially Tomas. He became obsessed with hating the man, Jerry Cormack. The man, Jerry, was institutionalized due to mental illness but Tomas swore it wasn't enough. The alcohol was soon to follow. Tomas barely worked anymore and his kids were hardly on his mind. Little Evie was left to take care of her 5 and 7 year old little brothers.  

Evie had to make sure that her little brothers dressed and ready for school every day while her father slept in. Once they got home Evie helped them with their homework before figuring out dinner. Most times before Evie knew how to cook she would just take money from her passed out father's wallet and order take out. After dinner she would do her own homework while her brothers watched television or played games. Finally Evie put her brothers to bed and did it all over again the next day. 

Years went by and her father began to get better. He was working more and had cut drinking down to only weekends. He would tell Evie how he missed her mother. He would tell her stories of their childhood and Evie would laugh. Things were almost normal again. Unfortunately it didn't last long as her father began getting sick. It wasn't long until they discovered he had Leukemia. And so Evie began not only taking care of her brothers but her father as well. It was also around this time that Evie took her first art class. She instantly fell in love. It was the only time she could ignore her responsibilities and just focus on her art. 

It was years before her father had finally recovered from his illness... though you can hardly call it recovering. A shell of the man he use to be, her father would never be completely healthy but it was as healthy as he could be. Evie was going to college studying Fine Art. Though she had to go to community college as she couldn't leave home just yet. Her brothers needed her to take them to and from practice and games not to mention cook dinner for them and her father. Oh, and do their laundry. And clean. She didnt need to dress them anymore and beat up the little boys who picked on them but she still had to take care of them. 

Finally, when her brothers entered college Evie was ready to leave home. She went to Pittsburgh to continue studying in graduate school. It was far but Evie liked the distance. She was finally free from being a mom. Though, this became a problem with her boyfriend for six years. He wanted to get married and start a family and that was the last thing she wanted. After another year or so he couldn't wait for her anymore and left her. Now 32 and single Evie doesn't know what she wants.

Other than her Mace she usually has a bottle of water and a snack of some sort (a granola bar, an apple, etc.).



Melissa Dunn


Age
18

Gender
Female

Family
Margret Dunn- Mother

Personality
The best way to describe Melissa is, well, odd. She seems normal at first until maybe five minutes after you talk to her and start noticing her idiosyncrasies. Sometimes she simply says things in an unusual way, other times she seems to be talking about something completely irrelevant. Though, despite her oddities, she is all around pleasant to be around. She is friendly and sweet and always tried to help when she can. 

Bio
Melissa was raised by a single mother who worked hard long hours. As a result she spent a lot of time with babysitters or alone. In school she didn't have many friends and rarely talked. However, when she was 12 she fell in love with her mathematics teacher, a tall young man man with a friendly smile. He would always convince her to talk in class and participate in class activities. And so she found herself constantly asking for help with her work just so he would talk to her. So he would smile at her. She stayed late for extra credit and sometimes just to talk to him. Finally, at the end of the year, she asked him if he had a girlfriend. This was obviously a red light for him and he explained to her that he was just her teacher and she was just his student. The rest of that summer she sulked... 

Though, when her next school year began she discovered she was in his class once again. She was overjoyed but she knew he could never be with her... And so she began searching for anything that could change that. What she found was magic. Or at least what she thought was magic. And so she spent that year trying to create love potions or charms for him. However, before she could see her results, her mother told her they were moving away. Melissa was infuriated. She pleaded with her mother telling her she loved someone dearly here and she couldn't leave them. Her mother assured her she would find someone else and before she knew it she was moving into a new home in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Melissa was crushed... until she received a letter from her love in the mail! It was simply saying that he was sad to lose her as a student and that he loved the time they spent together. Melissa took this as a sign of success from her magics. 

And so Melissa continued her magic. Though, as she got older she understood that most of the magic she knew didn't work. Or at least in the conventional sense. She still reads palms and tarot and more. Having graduated high school, Melissa attends college but she is undecided on a major. 

Job Before The Outbreak

Disability/Fear
Melissa is afraid of heights and is afraid of being alone with a large man. She is rather superstitious and is also afraid of clowns. 

Weapon of Choice
Melissa's weapon of choice is getting the heck out of there. 

Supplies
Melissa carried around several oddities in a large purse that she carries around. In it includes her ID, her keys to her home, a tarot deck, a rabbits foot, some odd coins, dried leaves, and more.


Admittedly, Melissa isn't the best character I've made... but I thought she might sound fun, lol. Anyways, let me know how these look.
