Description

A young man of 19; 5'6'' tall, blue eyes, and unshaven with thick shaggy dark brown hair covering the tops of his ears. The way he conducts himself and shoots his weapons makes it obvious he's ex-military.

History

I've been in Malton since the outbreak. That is, I've been fighting the walking plague since I can remember. I was in the United States Army. They stationed us in Malton in response to the initial infection, but they abandoned the units rather than fight a losing battle. Now I'm just fighting like the rest. Those first days were difficult. I traveled everywhere, I never actually stayed in one place for very long. The first time I settled for a bit was in Mornington, fending off one of the police departments from the dead. After more traveling and various short stays around the city I found myself North Blythville. I admired some of the local resistance fronts but in-fighting was rampant. Everyone had done such a good job of driving the undead threat out of that particular suburb that the only real threat were other people! Again I felt discontented and decided I would be of use elsewhere. I moved to South Blythville, and, though the dead were sparse, I found that I liked it there. I commandeered the Robins Cinema, not too far north of Marven Mall. I fueled a generator there and set up a radio transmitter. When powered, the theater played horror movies which I oddly enjoyed. I made regular stops to the mall to restock my supplies and I helped an adjacent NecroTech center enforce their barricading policy. I lived in the cinema through Christmas and New Years. Eventually South Blythville was just as dead as North Blythville so I abandoned my beloved theater and traveled northeast. After a short but action-packed stay in Brooksville I traveled north again. I roamed through Shearbank, Brooke Hills and then Ketchelbank trying to find a safe place to stay and restock equipment, but in vain. It was around this time I heard of Ackland Mall through radio chatter, and its strategic importance due to the phone mast located on its roof. I quickly packed up camp and head out in the direction of Havercroft.

Current Whereabouts

I've set up shop in Chaffe Cinema which is conveniently just a block south of Ackland Mall. It's relatively safe, with only just enough undead to keep one alert.
