Crystel's Characters
Rose Kavanagh | 20
The girl with the wildest imagination and unique charm, Rose Kavanagh always found her way to touch the hearts and minds of everyone. She is an intelligent girl, creative, and whenever people are around her they say the world is more bright and colorful. There was something about Rose that just made people smile, she had this genuine heart that cared deeply, almost to a fault. When the apocalypse happened, everything charming and imaginative about her seemed to fade away. She became very detached and passive about many things, almost to the point it cost her her life. If it wasn't for her sister, Rose probably wouldn't have made it as long as she had. There is one thing that Rose is very good at that has kept both her and her sister alive and that is archery and marksmanship, she was a champion Skeet shooter and archer. She always loved the outdoors and thankfully took several survival courses. Without those, she'd definitely be dead.
Weapons: Crowbar | Trench Knife | Shotgun | Colt Python
Zoey Kavanagh | 22
Driven and responsible, Zoey Kavanagh is the girl people admired for her dynamic energy and pragmatism. While Zoey has this charisma about her, she is a closed book and can even be a little dark. There is one thing people truly love about Zoey and that is that she is very devoted to those she loves. Sometimes, she lets her determination get the best of her though and becomes very controlling, which is a downside to her. Zoey can even be a bit smothering sometimes and whenever she feels threatened, she becomes very domineering. Quick on her feet and always collected in stressful situations, Zoey is a true survivor in the apocalypse.
Weapons: Wakizashi | Spear | M14
Harry Styles | 20
The goofball amongst his friends, Harry Styles, is a real scream. He knows how to make people smile and is always up to have a little fun. With a heart of gold, Harry could charm just about anyone especially the ladies. He has a true love for music and never misses a chance to play his guitar or sing a tune. Hardworking and handsome, Harry is always the center of attention. When the apocalypse struck Harry treats it like a game as a way to cope. As time goes on and he sees the horrors of this new dark world, Harry becomes a bit reclusive. Crafty and capable, Harry has collected a small arsenal of weapons from pistols to baseball bats and has secured himself the third floor of an apartment complex.

Niall Horan | 21
Always known for being the happy go lucky guy, Niall always had a smile on his face. He loved the arts, especially when it came to music. His favorite pass time was playing his guitar just about anywhere he could. People always gathered around him to listen and he enjoyed the spotlight. While he was going to school to become a dentist, secretly he always wanted to be a performer or singer/songwriter. Usually very relaxed and happy with the way things are, Niall has this way of getting everyone to calm down. Despite being young, Niall always gives excellent advice and is always there to listen or lend a shoulder to cry on. When the apocalypse struck, Niall and his family did the best they could to survive in their suburban home. Unfortunately, about six months into the apocalypse Niall's mother became very ill. Without proper medication and care, she succumbed to the illness and passed away during the night. She killed his younger sister, father, and brother, leaving him all alone. Since then, Niall has been traveling around aimlessly in hopes of finding either a cure or safe haven from the living dead.

Calli's Characters
Grace "Gray" Tomlinson | 20
Although she can be easy going, she always had trouble making friends with girls her age growing up. She looked up to her brother who shared the same interests as her, football, and video games. She was fascinated with video game graphics, and so she decided to go to school for game design. The only thing that would keep her from leaving town for school is her brother, who stayed behind to become a mechanic. She and Louis have an extremely close sibling relationship; they both believe they were meant to be twins. Like her brother, she didn't take anyone’s shit. Gray wasn't one to let someone walk all over her, the ones she saw as superior she'd willing follow. When she saw Michael it was like he was her soul-mate, friend wise. There was an instant connection between the two. When the apocalypse started she would've left him and fended for herself because it would be easier to do than see people she cares about die, but she couldn't leave him behind. She was glad because together they were a team, top of the leader boards. Nine months in, and hope was still never lost, they found a way to cope with the world. They will find Louis; he was fighting for her just as she was fighting for him.

Louis Tomlinson | 22
While his younger sister left town to attend University, Louis stayed behind to become a mechanic. He loved to take things apart and put them back together, and that's what he wanted to do, despite his love for football. He wanted to own his own Auto Body and Mechanical Repair business, and he was lucky to have parents who supported his decision. When he and his sister were cut from their inseparable bond, he felt like part of him was missing. Their parents always swore they were meant to be twins, instead of being two years apart. And they agreed. When the apocalypse happened, he immediately called his sister and told her that they'll find each other again, and that he'll never stop looking for her. Louis was a born leader; he was determined, and extremely protective of the things he loves. He soon met up with Cara and Zayn, who were nice enough to lend their help to finding Grace. Nine months in, and he could practically feel the lost hope from the others, thinking that their search was a lost cause. But he promised he was never going to stop looking for her.
Weapons: Crossbow | Hunting Knife | Glock 17
Michael Bishop | 22
His grandpa was a hunter, and he always took Michael with him, this was how he learned to aim, shoot, clean, and take apart guns. When he got his first Xbox and game, he quickly developed a liking to First Person Shooter games, especially Call of Duty. He attended University for Game Design, where he was immediately labelled as the quiet guy, which intimidated most people. When he first saw Grace he didn't think anything of her, because he thought that she was just another person who would avoid him. To his surprise, he was the first one she approached in class, and he was the first student she befriended. Never really having friends, he didn't know how he would act around them, but soon found that he had quite a sense of humor and a fierce protective nature. He was a quick learner, as well as a quick thinker. When the apocalypse happened he and Grace immediately teamed up, and they've gained a system. Michael loyally followed Grace in search of her brother, teaching her the ways of surviving in the wild as they go. They've learned to read each other well, and weirdly seem to know when the other was in danger. As they slowly lost hope, the apocalypse started to become a game to them as a coping mechanism. It was a game of survival.
Weapons: Crowbar | Shot Gun | Rifle
Marissa's Characters
Cara Monroe | 20
She was always somewhat shy and quiet before the apocalypse, and when everything went to shit, she showed those characteristics even more. She is very quiet for the most part and doesn't say much unless she thinks it's important. When she does talk, she's very kind, but her shyness tends to lead to people thinking she's rude upon first meeting her. She tries to help out as best she can, but she's not strong or a fighter type. Her only real skill is with medicine, and even that is sub par. She tries to learn more about medicine every chance she gets because she knows it's the only real help she can give. She's good with dealing with cuts and infection, but not much else for the time being.
Weapons: Pistol
Zayn Malik | 20
He is and always has been a fighter. Before the apocalypse, he played soccer (or football depending on where they're from) and he's always been athletic. He's very physically strong, but he isn't always the best when it comes to thinking up plans and the brainier side of things. He knows that's his biggest downfall, and he gets secretly embarrassed by it. His personality is more reserved around girls, but around the guys he likes to joke around. He doesn't want to get too attached to anyone out of fear of losing them, and it definitely shows.
Weapons: Shotgun | Handguns | Machete | Grenades | Knives
