Strength
Riker is no beefcake, but knows how to handle himself without guns. He is proficient with swords and knives, and even more deadly with his own fists and a set of brass knuckles. He can lift many heavy things, carry people like they weight 5 pounds, and vault fences like they're track hurdles.

Weapons: Riker grew up with a shotgun in his hands. His weapon of choice, the double barrel shotgun, has been a favorite of Riker's since he was a boy. He owns a double barrel named "Dragon" because of the dragon breath effect the barrel gives off after firing a round. His secondary is the Colt 1911, a hand cannon of a pistol, custom made for him as a gift for his 15th birthday. His melee weapon is a hunting knife given to him by his father, named "Amy" (after his mother).
Gear: Riker has some hunting gear from his earlier years, like an ammo cache that can fit in a backpack and some great binoculars. Other than that, not much else.
Personality: Riker is an outgoing, relativity happy man-child that can be tough and serious when he needs too. He gets along well with others, and likes to communicate. He is mostly friendly, until you get in his way. Then he'll break your skull open and move along. He is very trustworthy and loyal, true leader material.
Bio: Growing up in Los Angeles, Riker lived with his father Tony Philips, an LAPD police officer with a love for hunting and eating. Tony trained Riker to become a brave and strong cop just like him all his life. Tony had to care for Riker alone, as for Amy Philips, Tony's wife and Riker's mother, had died after childbirth. Tony took Riker hunting all the time, taught him the law and how to follow it, and even how to use every weapon imaginable. In 2013, Tony was killed in a firefight, leaving Riker by himself. Living by himself in sadness, Riker immersed himself in working out, training hard, and working to become the police officer Tony dreamed of. When the apocalypse hit, Riker was ready. He was going to take this zombie invasion head on, equipped with his trusty Dragon.
Rad Fact: Riker once sniped a deer from 2 1/2 miles away with a high power bolt action rifle.
