"Never assume loud people are strong and quiet people are weak."
Name: Alexander Heath
Nicknames/Aliases: Alex
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Appearances: Alex is rather easy on the eyes despite his slightly rough and distant exterior. His skin is the shade of light olive, but not flawless. He has plenty of tattoos to show on his arm back and even neck. Naturally, he carries scars on his skin as well, though, not many deep or noticeable ones. He is lean and very much in shape, but not too muscular as he is slim. As for his height, he stands over most people being 6'4 and all. While his hair is deep brown almost black while his eyes are light brown and practically a gold color. Lastly he does have a bit of stubble on his face.
Personality: Alex is one of the best companions to have around, especially once you get close enough to him. He is brave, caring and compassionate. Nor does he bother hiding these traits of his, he is quite open. Though, he is blunt and straightforward which lead to many people thinking of his as rude because his words may rub them the wrong way. He's honest which is both a fault and a merit. However, he is known to be thoughtful and protective but his most admirable trait is his loyalty, once you have him on his side he isn't going anywhere. In return, you have his trust as well. He knows when to be hard and when to be soft, which can be hard in the environment they live in today. Most of all, he is patient and always thinking things through instead running right through. He's this way even with people.
History: To say that Alex had an average life before the outbreak would be a lie. Though, he thought he had as a child. His family was a gang family with his father being one of the higher-ups.

Alex always had a lot of friends and spent his summer at camp. He loved animals and the great outdoors. When he was 14 he even became a camp counselor in training. He volunteered for many and anything that had to do with animals and the wilderness. He was a loving guy who took care of his four siblings.
Then, it all came crashing down when his mother decided she had enough the life she was living, She left her family and they never heard from her. His father changed, becoming harsher on his children. Alex was eventually pulled into the crime life, though, he had a knack for it being smart and good fighting, he was bad at it at the same time with having too much of a sensitive heart.
He still managed to get himself in trouble.
When his father was finally caught and arrested, his mother returned and took away his siblings. He chose to stay behind, angry with both of his parents. He tried to get his life together and not long after the outbreak happened and everything went to hell.

Name: Rebecca Holliday
Nicknames/Aliases: Becca
Age: 22
Gender: Female
Appearances: Rebecca has a pretty face that is often overshadowed by her attitude. She is a slim slender girl with slight curves here and there, though nothing to brag about. She is a decent height standing 5'6 and weighs little to nothing. Her eyes are hazel, green with blue and flecks of brown. While her hair is cut shoulder length and kept in a ponytail or bun most times. The shade of her thick here is raven black making her fair skin look even paler. She has a few scars on her hands, arms and legs, but besides that, you could say her skin is flawless.
Personality: Rebecca isn't the most pleasurable person and she is well aware of in and in most cases she doesn't care. She is a clever, sly and manipulative woman who often only thinks of herself and brother making her out to be selfish. She is cynical and sardonic and not very trusting of anyone else, also making her independent. She is brash, fearless, impulsive and sometimes reckless because of her hot temper. Her tongue is just as quick as her trigger finger. A lot of times she shows no remorse for actions. Most of all, she is a magnificent liar as well as persuasive person. Yet, she isn't the worst. Despite acting hard and mean most of the time she is compassionate and sympathetic. It's simply hard to care and get close to others. Somehow her softer colors shine through a lot too, how confident and caring she is. Naturally her sarcasm too.
History: Rebecca thought her life was hard until zombies appeared. Her father, who came from a military family and was a military man, came from a hard life. He often made it hard on his own children, but he did it for their own well-being. Her mother, a doctor, wasn't much better. They both expected a lot from her as their first born child. They had her homeschooled and sent her to boot camp whenever she misbehaved, which happened to be a lot.
Her family lived in the countryside, but sometimes her dad was relocated. He had her learn a lot of things she felt had no point. Such as self-defense "everyone, especially women, should know how to defend themselves in this world". First aid "you could always hurt yourself" he had said. How to repair things, like cars. Cooking, which she hated. Sewing and crocheting, a hobby that her mother forced her to take up. Hunting and gardening, which she also hated. But her passions lied elsewhere, like music and just anything that her parents didn't force her to take up.
Her younger brother, Jasper got it just as hard as her, especially from her father. He was such a gruff man and their family was quite patriarchal. When her younger brother was diagnosed with autism, she got it even harder for she had to take care of him all the time. Still, she loved him and practically raised the boy herself.
She only got an escape from her family when she entered college. Against her parents will, she dabbled in other subjects until she found a passion in psychology. She studied it for a long time and, she struggled a lot at first because her people skills were seriously lacking. She fought with more people than understood them, but she still loved it and had a knack for it the more she persisted.
When she went home for vacation, the outbreak happened. Her father was the first to be infected, he had tried to attack them as a zombie, but she took one of his hunting guns and killed him. That, had hardened her almost completely. After that, she practically led their group as a leader.
Eventually, they joined a group. Her mother was useful being a doctor and all, she was an adult so of course, she was too. Jasper was only allowed to stay because they wanted to keep her mother. While there, she worked and learned underneath her mother. During that time she had grown closer to her mother and brother than she thought possible. The more they stayed with their group the more they realized how screw they were.
They tried to leave and in the process, her mother was accidentally killed. The group wanted to keep Rebecca, at least, she had studied under her mother and was the best next thing. However, she escaped with her brother.

Name: Jasper Holliday
Nicknames/Aliases: Jazz
Age: 13
Gender: Male
Appearances: Jasper is a pale kid, and like his sister, his thick, dark, and curly brown hair, almost raven colored, makes his skin look paler. That along with the freckles on his face, across his nose and other places. His eyes are dark brown like his mother's and he is a skinny and slightly lanky one. He stands 5'4, almost his sister's height.
Personality: Jasper is perceived as a 'weird kid" because of his mental health, being autistic. Though, he is higher functioning so he doesn't seem autistic at all until you start talking with him. Like his sister he is outspoken, though, unike her he is always honest and straightforward despite how others may feel about what he says. He has a hard time understanding how to act socially. He is a sweet and highly intelligent kid, though with a big heart and personality. One of his most striking features is his cheekiness and how well he can use sarcasm. Still, he can't always completely understand sarcasm. In most situations, he's a quiet one. To get closer to people he tries to funny and make jokes, he loves them himself.
History: Like Rebecca, he had it hard with his father and being autistic didn't help any more. He hated going to self-defense classing, he hated hunting, he hated fixing things, he hated first aid. He hated everything his father forced him to do. His father wanted so much out of him because he was his first son and was of course expected to go into the military.
Jasper tried to distance himself as much as possible from his father. The only person he was close with was his mother and sister. He was bullied by the neighborhood kids and treated horribly by others. The only retreat he had was putting on his headphones in a secluded place, listening to music while he drew. He had a talent with art and many things actually, he had savant syndrome.
Then,he was diagnosed with autism. That was when his father stopped forcing him into things and reached out to him anyway he could. They had gotten closer, understanding each other better. That naturally ended when he woke up in the middle of the night seeing his zombie father try to attack him and his mother.
Skills:
- he's a magnificent artist
- he has photographic memory
- he's resourceful
- he can fit into small spaces and an excellent hider (a good scout)
Likes:

- listening to music
- books
- colors of all kinds
- clouds
- small spaces to hide in
- making jokes
Dislikes:
- loud people
- violent people
- people who treat him like an idiot
- being useless
- too many loud noises
