Work in Progress
name: Bexley (Bex or Bee by her friends)
age: 27
date of birth:

gender: female
sexuality: hetero

Faction: West Side
Position: Head

Appearance: (bigger photo)
lyndsy-fonseca-nikita-s2-photoshoot-40673.jpg

FC: Lyndsy Fonseca

personality: Bexley is....complicated. When she was younger, she was carefree and wild even though the world around her was ending. Not really caring what other's thought about what she did and how she did it. At 18 however, her freedom was cut short due to an unwanted pregnancy. As a mother, Bexley is protective and reasonable. Her love for her son knew no boundaries and she would gladly lay down her own life if it meant he could live a better one. But when both her son and father were taken from her suddenly, everything about her changed. She became bitter against the East Side, resentful of them and the alliance they once shared. She is often pessimistic instead of optimistic and doesn't mess around or joke with others like she use to. A smile is rare for the woman nowadays, only if something amuses her greatly (which is also rare). She is a hard ass and will have no problem making an example of those who have done her wrong, learning quickly that in order to lead one must both be loved and feared.
Strengths:
*Strong leader
* Enforces the law
*Strategic
*Clever
weaknesses:
* Children
* Animals
*short tempered
*vengeful
history:
As a young girl, Bexley was energetic, carefree and wild. Her favorite pastimes were playing catch with her father before curfew set in on the HQ and watching old VHS' in the HQ lounge with the other children. Her mother had died when Bexley was a small baby, leaving her father to raise their only child. Bee definitely didn't complain, as she loved her father very much. He was attentive of his daughter and taught her everything she would need to know in order to protect herself.

When Bexley was 18, she fell in love with a boy from the east side. Well you know how this goes, one thing led to another and BOOM love child (aka Atticus) was conceived. Despite knowing the news of her pregnancy as early as a month in, she had decided that it wasn't worth getting the man she knew was the father involved. Bexley had grown up with one parent and had done just fine, she didn't see a reason for her child to have a father who might end up walking out on them both. Atticus brought a lot of joy to Bexley's already happy life.

Each day with her son was like a new adventure for her and he breathed life into her seemingly old bones. 4 years after Atticus was born, her father had taken the babe with him on a trading mission( Which was normally nothing dangerous because of the fact that East and West were allies. ) whilst Bexley had been assigned to perimeter patrol. That was the last time she saw either one of them. that was the last time she smiled. Time only seemed to make things worse for Bexley as she stepped up to lead the West side. Growing bitter and resentful towards the East side, she blamed them for the disappearance of her family and broke the treaty they had formed 17 years prior. The two side's had been at war ever since. Not a day goes by that she doesn't think about her son...or even the man she called her child's father.

Appearance: (bigger photo)

FC: Colin Ford
Skills:
Quick and nimble
Expert climber
Always willing to help
Pays attention to detail
Tinkers and builds things that could be helpful to the faction
Strengths:
Stubborn
Strong willed
Does being adorable count?
Good moral
Weaknesses:
trusts too easily
easily manipulated
often feels unloved and this weakens him.
Ill tempered at times
easily stressed

personality: Atticus is a bright young boy who loves just as hard as his father. He clings on to those who are willing to care for him and show him some sort of compassion and refuses to let go. Atticus is innocent in the world of chaos, he has yet to be taught of what truly evil beings are and doesn't know when he's being used. He trusts those around him easily, as most children do, and doesn't know how to tell if he should trust someone or not. A little stubborn and tempered like his mother, Atticus tends to get angry or flustered in times of great stress or when he sees someone he loves hurting. His loyalty knows no bounds. He is over all good natured and loves to have fun.
history:
Being conceived by two teenagers who at the time, had been madly in love:
Atticus Henry Withers was born on the only night it had snowed in the west, in the early hours of the morning. Healthy as a horse and with lungs as loud as sirens, Atticus was destined for great things since the beginning of his life. But growing up without a father was something that constantly took a toll on the little happy things in his life. Even though he was far too young to remember, Atticus began asking about his father as soon as he could form sentences. His mother always told him that his father was somewhere around...that they had lost each other in the chaos of the worlds end.

Atticus Withers disappeared on July 31st 2013 after a meeting he had attended with his grandfather Henry at the Wall. He was never seen from since.

name: Blaine Darby
age: 40
date of birth: Unknown


gender: male
sexuality: hetero


Faction: North
Position: Leader


Appearance: (bigger photo)
a5f49300bc27d398c47cda0017925642.jpg

FC: David Anders
Skills:


Strengths:
Tactical
Logical
Sly
Weapon Knowledge
Historical Knowledge


Weaknesses:
Hot head
Narcissist
Easily Bored
Children

personality:
To most people who know Blaine, he is a saint. Blaine doesn't think of anyone but himself and is only worried about his own well being. Playing a man of charm and classy, Blaine is a great leader for the city of Khal, providing his people with the protection that they need. When it comes to friends and relationships, he tends to operate on a "you scratch my back, I scratch yours" type of deal. He won't take the extra mile for anyone if it means putting himself in danger and he does things for his own personal gain. When angered, Blaine will do everything he possibly can to make the enemy suffer, loving the game of cat and mouse. With children, for some reason, Blaine seems to tolerate the small humans finding them better than the adults who run the world.

history:
Before the end of the world, Blaine's life was already shit. His mother and father decided that Blaine wasn't worth having in their lives and he was dropped off at the nearest church as a small baby. Growing up as an orphan was not an ideal lifestyle for the young child who wanted so much more in life. Getting into fights constantly, being punished by those damn nuns, Blaine decided it was best to run away at the age of 12. He was homeless for a long while, fighting for his survival. He considered himself well prepared for the end of the world when it came. He was only 23 at the time, and was separated like a lot were from the west and the east side, being trapped in the north. The civilization in the North was small, not many survived the zombie attacks along with the bitter cold that wrapped the land in its clutches.

Things changed for Blaine when had decided to take on the Wolf of the North, a man who claimed that he would bring the North, East and West together so that the humans could once again thrive as the dominate civilization. A small group of Northerners who didn't want to live in harmony with the East and the West were responsible for getting Blaine in the position he is in today, they worked together to murder the Wolf of the North before taking over the region.

Strengths:

Weaknesses:
Kids
Animals
Tends to Push People Away

personality:
Jylene is probably the more laid back of the bunch. She doesn't really react to things unless they have some sort of effect on herself or on people she cares about. In her eyes, why react to things that have nothing to do with you? Whether or not this is a good thing, it's how she's always been. She's not one to hop on the bandwagon about how to react to things either. How she feels is how she feels and there's nothing and no one who can influence it. She's a strong girl and can usually handle anything thrown her way, but every woman has a breaking point. What hers is pretty unknown and can happen at anytime. Her emotions are something of a mystery. You can never truly tell how she's doing simply because of her poker face and her ability to keep her voice calm through anything.

Jay is the type of person to analyze a situation before jumping to conclusions, always finding an outcome that will benefit her. If she can't chances are she'll abandon ship and let someone else figure it out. It makes her a selfish person, but only selfish when it's towards people she could care less about. Her friends, or rather now family, mean the world to her. When she loves, she loves hard but never shows it. She believes love is a weakness that can be used against you by your enemies. Therefore, she tries to act cold-hearted but people who know her knows she's a softie. Jay can also be very tempting, but not just by her looks. Also by the way her mind works and the way she sees things. People often say she is very enticing and when she has you in her grip, you either survive or you don't. She's not a bad person per se when it comes to the love department. Just a bit jaded. What she believes is the right thing she's doing could be the wrong thing.

history:

Jay was born an orphan, her father being some sort of Congressman and her mother a staffer on his team. Neither wanted the responsibility of raising a child and dealing with the scandal. She was left on the steps of an orphanage, where she would reside for the next 15 years. It was here that she learned how to be very independent, as she would never get that one on one with a role model like other kids. Jay was more distant than the other kids, which is perhaps why she was never adopted. People wanted kids who were warm and bubbly and looked like princesses; that wasn't Jay. Which was fine with her, to be honest, she was never going to conform to them anyway.

When she was 16, she had managed to save up enough money to be independent, so she sued for emancipation. With her good track record in school and her community, she won her case and became an emancipated minor. From then on, she was living a very exciting life doing thing most teens weren't allowed to do because of their parents; one of the perks of being an orphan. In order to put herself through school, she took up bartending in skeezy bars until she worked her way up to the high-end ones. She never had much of a social life since she was so focused on work and school, but her years of being alone would comfort her.

Psychology was always something she was interested in, wanting to know why people did what they did. Really, it was her goal to try and understand why her parents would just abandon her. It grew into more of a passion when she discovered that she could use this to help people if they had issues. When the breakout began, a part of her figured she was going to be needed for comfort.

Godfrey Finch —
pcxuwJr.jpg
He was only a kid when this all started. He lived a good life with his parents and his older sister. Everything was normal and happy. They had all been enjoying family time in the living room. It all kind of blurs together after that. He remembers his mom getting a call and stepping out to take it. When she came back in she talked with their dad for a minute and then they were being rushed out of the house with anything they could fit in their suitcases. His parents locked the house up and they went to the airport. When he got older he realized they were trying to run, get away from the outbreak. But there was no escape. After months of living far off in the outskirts of the country they were attacked by some of the locals. In the attack his father was killed. Realizing that were they were wasn't safe they decided the best thing to do was to go and take up living in the East faction. Along the way they came across some bad weather. A tornado forced them to take shelter in an abandoned store. His sister was lost to them. Once the storm had passed they looked everywhere for her but never found her body and eventually had to move on. They arrived in the East faction more broken then when they started but in one piece. Not long after they settled in Godfreys mother got sick. All of the stress and pain from losing her husband and daughter so close was too much for her body to take. As the years past she grew weaker until her body gave out.
Godfrey's clever, thinks on his feat well. But in the world they live in he isn't sure if it's smartest for him to be a sympathetic man or a merciless one. Choosing the wrong answer in a any given situation , he's found, is a quick way to get a man killed

My Basic Info
tom-hardy-this-means-war.jpg

Name: Nikolas Kasanov (Known as Nik)
Age: 30
Date of Birth:


Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Style: I II


Faction: West
Position: Scout


Family:
Father: Alexy Kasanov
Mother: Sarah Kasanov
Sister: Magda Kasanov


Personal Info
Personality
Nik was always a quiet kid growing up.Never one to mingle un-necessarily. Seen as somber and quiet, some people tend to take this quietness as Nikolas being introverted and withdrawn when in fact he is observing, watching and studying those around him. His father had been part of the Russian Military and when it came to raising his son, he used that Military training. Nik is able to think on the fly and adapt pretty quickly to a situation. While a quiet man, Nik is steadfast and dependable as long as there is sound reason behind what is happening. He is able to turn off his feelings when necessary as the world around them demanded he be able to kill in cold blood should the need arise. It does not stop him from feeling guilty at times for the actions taken in the name of survival.


History:
Nikolas was born to a Russian father and American mother, with them having met when his father moved to America. They quickly fell in love and married, despite his Russian relatives refusing to come for the wedding. Nikolas grew up with a doting mother and a slightly cold father. Nikolas grew with expectations of how he should be, his father enrolled him in self defense classes at a young age and began to train Nikolas as he had been trained in the Army in survival, gun use and maintenance.



Due to this slight isolation, Nikolas had few friends growing up when compared to his sister. When he was young, everything had gone to crap. His father was one of those were affected and had turned on his mother. Nikolas had heard the scuffle and managed to save his mother before she could be infected.Unfortunately his sister spent the night at a friends house that night. when Nikolas and his mother went looking for her, she had vanished from the house without a trace.

During his travels to survive, his mother ended up being affected and she took her own life before she could fully fall to the illness, leaving Nikolas on his own to search for his sister, joining the west faction to aid him in this.

Likes:
Mixed Martial Arts - Nikolas is a keen boxer since he was young, using the fighting style as a means of relieving tension.
Reading - Nikolas is a keen reader, taking any spare time available to read some of the worlds classical pieces.




Dislikes:
Cockiness - There is a fine line between doing your best and being a show off, Nikolas hates when the line is crossed.
Plans going wrong - Nikolas does not like when his plans do not work, to him it shows weakness.



Fears:
Nikolas' main fear is that his sister is somewhere dead and he is unable to find her. He had been unable to find her but he still does not believe that she is dead, that she is out there somewhere, surviving like him.

  • Name: Robert Sloan Jr
    Age: 27
    Gender: Male
    Occupation: Agriculture
    Crew: East Side
    Date of Birth: 27th November

    Personality: Robert is kinda of a silent guy. He likes to mostly keep to himself reading on the books he managed to scavenge before all hell broke loose. He has a collection of old books from Stephen King and Chris Carter which he has read and re-read countless times and he has gotten to the point of asking if the scout team can find him some more.
    If he is not reading, he is at the greenhouse, doing research and making note of the types of crops they are growing. His love for agriculture made him a man to keep to himself as all of his time is devoted to his books.


    History
    Robert was born to two lovely and very successful parents. His dad was an architect and his mother was a stock exchange broker. Wealth was nothing but an inconvenience to them. Most of the time they would drive out into the country side so that they can pick a suitable location for their retirement home. He, at a tender age. had no input on the matter but he always loved the country drives.

    When he was 10, their parents settled on a large estate farm, a few miles out of the major city and that's where he developed an interest in crops and animals. When he joined junior high, he joined the local agriculture club. His parents were shocked at first but the determination in his eyes made them not question him. He studied many ways of growing crops and breeding animals because he was very much invested in the process.

    After he finished university, he talked to his parents and they agreed to buy him a small parcel of land where he could make something out of the knowledge he acquired from school. His farm, "Robert's Produce" was a successful small business dealing with a variety of crops and small animals like rabbits, small goats and pigs.

    When all hell broke lose, he lost everything that was important to him. His parents, his farm, his business, his reputation.

FaceClaim coming soon

name: Matthew Smith

age: 24

date of birth: December 23rd



gender: Male

sexuality: Bi



Faction:West

Position: Co-Head



Strengths: Strategic, Level-headed, Observant, Cautious, Hard Worker.

Weaknesses: Moderate Anxiety,Socializing, Overworker, forgetful at times.



personality: Matt is a young man with a good head on his shoulders, but that isn't always a good thing. He lives moment by moment, allowing stress and anxiety to pile on until he breaks, only to do the same thing all over again. When he's working hard he tunes out his own needs, sometimes forgetting to eat or drink anything until he's done or had put off sleep too long. Most of the time, he wears the mask of an unfaltering right hand, but this mask has cracks. And while it isn't broken yet, when it breaks it won't be pretty. But he keeps himself motivated with the group's successes, striving to help anyone within reason and keep their faction running smoothly. Putting his own mental health after others has caused issues, but stubbornness and pride keeps him firmly stood beside their lead. This is why he's made it so far as a co-leader. Forcing himself to remain strong until it's safe and private enough for a moment to recover. Then he's buried himself into work once more.



history:Matthew comes from North Dakota, originally having spent a majority of his childhood in the southern provinces of canada until his grandmother fell ill. They moved to the states to stay with her, and after three years she had unfortunately passed on. This left them without reason to stay any longer, until a job in New York city drew the small family southwards once more. They settled into their new lives, soon being granted citizenship after another year or so. Life was normal after that.



On his seventh birthday they had planned to visit his cousins back in canada for the weekend, but his Mother had developed a cold. Thankfully for them, a new medicine had come onto the market, that eradicated the virus without need of crazy home remedies. She took the pill, and they left for the weekend. Upon returning home, they returned to things as they'd been before. But as the 31st of December reared it's head, Matthew had only been able to watch his mother tear his father's flesh away from his body like wrapping paper. The adrenaline and fear had fueled him into a desperate run down the street, only to discover the same relative situation happening everywhere. He'd had to stop for a moment in a nearby alley as his lungs nearly gave out from the strain. This was enough time for one of those beasts to take note and attempt to rip him to pieces. It had lashed out, grazing his back with the long nails of what once had been a woman. Staggering forwards as the warmth of blood soaked his thin t-shirt, he waited for her to strike again, helpless.



Only for the sound of several gunshots to ring out over his head, sending gore splattering everywhere and leaving him thoroughly shell shocked. The shooter had made his way over, picking the boy up and hurrying away.



Even now Matt couldn't recall much of what happened afterwards. Just that he would be left with some scars on his back and a haze of hurried talking as a memory before the time in which he was swiftly taken into what would soon be called the Western Faction.



This was where he learned everything he needed to know about survival.

Sound Mind, Sound Body- Despite slaving away to earn the vast amount of knowledge and skill he has, Ivan never neglected his physical upkeep. He took every opportunity he got to make sure he was healthy and in shape. As it turned out, the apocalypse came around and it his athletic physique became far more useful than he thought it ever would. Despite his age, he still maintains a solid body of conditioned muscle.

Sheer Will- It takes a certain kind of man to cause the end of the world as we knew it. It takes an even greater kind of man even attempt to make up for such a mistake. The sheer magnitude of his mission is proof that Dr. Salazar is made of different stuff than most men.

Strong Stomach- While most wouldnt consider this a skill, there arent many that could watch the most horrific injuries inflicted on a human being and not have their stomachs flipped. In Ivan's case, the experiments he runs on the infected range from horrifying to unimaginable.

Competent Combatant- Make no mistake, the Doc is by no means a pushover in a fight. He had to learn how to defend himself against infected and humans alike just to get to where he is today. Sure, he is no Jackie Chan but he can certainly hold his own against the average fighter.

Multi-lingual - Ivan's main language is Spanish but he is fluent in 6 other languages. English, German, French, Portuguese, Japanese, and Korean.

Pros:
Strategic, Intimidating, Adaptable, Driven, Professional, Level-headed, Cunning, Highly Intelligent.

Cons:
Cold-hearted, Unforgiving, Manipulative, Ruthless, Stubborn, Selfish, Indifferent

History: Ivan was in the slums of Venezuela to unknown parents in an unknown place with an unknown future. All he knows of his origins is that he was abandoned at an orphanage by a pair of parents that never wanted him. At least, that's how he views it.

Life at the orphanage was anything from easy, but it wasn't hell either. His country during those years was rife with crime and violence but even hardened, cold-blooded criminals didn't target orphanages in the house of God. A blessing in disguise considering the hardships the children and caretakers had to go through just to live day-to-day.

As early as three years old, the nuns could tell something was.... off about Ivan. He never complained, never whined, never cried unless he was physically injured and even then, barely. That and he was shockingly intelligent. Ivan took to the lessons given by caretakers like flies to honey. It was the only time he seemed to show an interest in anything. Otherwise, he was very quiet and obeyed instructions without question.

It was this very behavior that put potential adoptive families off. To put it simply, he was just too strange. He didn't have that cute, innocent, youthfulness that the other children had. People had begun referring to him as "El Niño Sin Alma." The child without a soul. The nuns naturally disagreed and merely said he was very well behaved but once the nickname was whispered by one family, it stuck and so did the stigma behind it. A "cursed" child in a superstitious country might as well truly be cursed.

It wasn't until a certain man came calling that things changed for little Ivan. He was roughly 10 at the time when a Dr. Salazar came to the orphanage and laid eyes upon him.

Quiet, obedient, intelligent, and a thirst for knowledge that would put the most unforgiving desert to shame. Exactly what this doctor had been looking for. He didn't want a son... not really. He wanted a protege.

And a protege he received.

There was no love or affection between the Dr. Salazar and Ivan. No father-son bonding or familial ties. It was an aging genius and his student to which he passed down his knowledge. Ivan never knew the embrace of a mother but knew the pages in books. He never knew the encouragement of a father but the sound of pen on paper. He never knew the comradery of friendship but he knew scholarly success.

They moved to the United States to gain a larger wealth of information for him to dig his teeth into. This continued well past childhood, adolescence, and into adulthood until his master and mentor finally passed away, leaving Ivan all of his worldly possessions. His theses, his studies, his home, and his fortune.

Needless to say, Ivan followed in his Mentor's footsteps and became a Doctor of considerable skill and renown. So much so, that when research began for a miracle drug, Dr. Ivan Salazar was one of the head researchers who spear headed the creation of the drug, despite being half the age of the other head researchers.

Everyone knows how that turned out.

Government involvement and pharmaceutical company avarice was always an issue but never had it failed on such a level before. The drug was in its final stages of synthesis and was still being put through its finishing steps but their investors didn't care for it. The drug was pushed out and marketed as the miracle pill that it was, despite the head researchers protests, Ivan's of which was one of the loudest voices against releasing the drug.

It was mere days after that the rats which had been given the experimental drug started to show signs that it had some....unforeseen side effects. Ivan had noticed the drug caused a strange phenomenon in the blood but he didn't understand what it was. Not until the change happened but by then it was far too late. The drug had been shipped out, hundreds of thousands had consumed it, and the beginning of the end was underway.

Dr. Salazar has spent the last few years running unspeakable experiements in a single-minded frenzy to undo what he was in large part responsible for. His life was halfway over and what was supposed to be his greatest achievement is now his greatest shame. Simply put, it will be a cold day in hell before Ivan allows his life to end like this.

As it turns out, the Souless Child has a soul after all.

Mackenzie O'Leary
ezgif.com-resize (3).gif
Nickname: Mac
Age: 26
Date of Birth: March 11th

Gender: Female
Sexuality: Heterosexual

Faction: West
Position: Weapons Specialist

Skills:
-Weaponry: Mac is skilled with a large variety of weapons including blades, firearms, and archery. She knows her way around the anatomy of each weapon, using her past experience in order to train in, repair, and modify all different sorts of weaponry. With her skills, she can scrap other materials in order to make bullets, arrows, and other necessary weapon accessories.
-First Aid: Having experience in taking care of her own injuries from the past, Mac is rather proficient in first aid techniques. Though she doesn't have the entire of knowledge of a medical specialist, she can bandage and disinfect with the best of them.
-Hunting: Due to her expertise in weapons handling, Mac is also a quite excellent hunter. She doesn't really enjoy killing, but understands that her people need to eat in order to survive. So she does what she must in order to help out.
Strengths:
-Arrow and Dagger: Though Mackenzie is proficient in all realms of weaponry, her weapons of choice are often a dagger for short-ranged fights as well as a bow with arrows in long-ranged fights. She prefers manual, quiet, stealthy methods as opposed to the bold and loud use of firearms.
-Loyalty: Growing up in a mafia family, Mac has a strong sense of loyalty to her people. She appreciates how they accepted her given her past, and would honestly do anything in order to protect the people of Saloon.
- Hand-to-hand Combat: Even though she loves weaponry, Mackenzie is also seasoned in various methods of hand-to-hand combat. Her father was insistent on her learning to protect herself, lest she ever be pursued by members of rival organizations. This increased her agility, stamina, and speed to counteract her lack of overall power.
Weaknesses:
-Strength: Though she is fast and agile, Mac is rather small. She doesn't have as much muscle strength as others may have, and that can be a detriment to her overall fighting abilities.
-Animals: Mackenzie has a soft spot for all types of animals. She finds that they are beautiful and non-judgmental, which is a trait she wished more humans possessed. It is often times hard for Mac to hunt, that being the only time she would hesitate with a shot.
-Addiction: Mac often times deals with her stress through drinking or smoking, finding that it calms her nerves. She isn't exactly great at coping with stress, and turns to her addictions for aid as opposed to figuring things out herself.

History:
Mackenzie was born to Seamus and Aoife O'Leary in the once-beautiful city of New York, New York. As an only child to the rather young parents, Mac grew up with a fierce, fiery, and independent disposition similar to that of her father. Though Seamus had wanted a son to follow in his footsteps, he couldn't deny that his daughter would fit the role perfectly. Seamus and Aoife had immigrated to New York to join the Irish Mafia, convinced that it would provide them with an "American dream" life of sorts. And in some ways, it did. As a weapons and combat expert for the mafia, Seamus quickly rose in the ranks and gained a bit of power.

Mackenzie grew up training with her father, knowing that one day she would follow in his footsteps and become a weapons expert for the mafia. Her future was set in stone from the day she was born, and Mac never really had a problem with that. She appreciated knowing where she would end up, hating the thought of the unknown. But when the outbreak happened, Mac's entire life was turned on its head. The people around her were not prepared for such a pandemic, who would be? Confused and unsure, it wasn't long until all of the people close to her had been infected. The only way Mac could escape was to kill them all.

Mac found herself in the grips of survival, alone and unsure. For a while, she lived entirely on her own, surviving on hunting, gathering, making her own weapons, and staying out of sight. It took her a few years to stumble upon the underground community of Saloon. At first, she was shunned as the community did not want another mouth to feed. But Mackenzie quickly proved her worth through her expertise in weaponry and combat. She worked her way up, eventually becoming the weapons expert for the Western territory.
