    Character Profiles

    Calli's Characters:

    Grace "Gray" Tomlinson | 20 years old | Love Interest: Liam Payne
    "It's funny... I busted my ass in school, and for what? For the world to become shit?"

    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.

    Weapons: Tomahawk | Beretta's | Hunting Knife
    ----
    Liam Payne | 21 years old
    "I didn't want to see them turn, so I left them for dead... but not this time."

    Liam was a huge family man. He loved his family so much, but he was selfish. He had willing left his family to die so he wouldn’t be put through the devastating situation of seeing them get bitten. And to see them turn into the things he thought would only exist in movies, and video games. Despite his chance to avoid the feeling of despair, he carried the guilt of leaving them for nine months, and he will continue to do so.

    Weapons: Hunting Knives | Axe | Semi-Automatic Rifle
    ----
    Louis Tomlinson | 23 years old | Dating Jenny
    "It's bullshit! When I have a world ending reason to protect my sister, I can't."

    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 TWO OTHER CHARACTERS, 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 years old
    "It says 'Michael Bishop, the Apocalypse Champion.' I still have the highest score, babe. I bet you can't beat it."

    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. And it would be his downfall.
    Weapons: Crowbar | Shot Gun | Rifle
    --
    Character Points:

    -- Grace and Michael are a two-man team at the beginning of the story, until they run into Juliet, Niall, and Harry scavenging.
    -- Grace and Louis are on a mission to find one another, and to meet up at the Family Lake House. Michael is helping Grace, and Eden and Jenny volunteered to help Louis. Liam joins them, though he doesn't believe that Grace is still alive and doesn't keep it a secret from Louis.
    -- Both Grace and Michael treat the apocalypse as a video game, and made up their own 'scoreboard', it keeps them in check.
    -- Michael becomes friends with Niall, and when he dies he hardens up.
    -- Michael dies saving Grace, sometime near the middle of the story.
    -- Grace loses her humanity for a while, becoming reckless, and not hesitating to kill another living person if it means survival. Liam and Louis bring her back.
    -- Grace later dies. Louis is devastated, as well as Liam who hardens up and vows not to become close to another person again. and leaves the group.

    Katie's Characters:
    Eden Adler | 20 years old | Love Interest: Zayn Malik
    Eden was in her second year of nursing school when the outbreak happened. She was just beginning to get into her nursing classes, so she only has a very basic knowledge of medicine, but she tries to use it as best she can. She carries with her a medical textbook and a few basic medicines.

    Her love of people and compassion are what drove Eden to become a nurse. She has a big heart and is very trusting of people, which caused her to have many problems with boys throughout college. After being dumped by her freshman year boyfriend, Eden decided to swear off men until she graduated, which she upheld until the outbreak happened. She didn't plan on finding anyone she'd have feelings for, so she rarely has her guard up around people.

    Though Eden carries a few weapons with her, she is pretty much useless with them. She never had any experience with weapons before the apocalypse and always cracks under the pressure when zombies are actually attacking. She relies on everyone else to protect her, which she hopes to repay with her knowledge of medicine.

    When the outbreak happened, Eden was at the hospital doing observation hours, so she saw some of the worst of it before she got sent home. Her roommate, Jenny, was still there and they vowed to stay together.
    Weapons: medicine | pistol | knife
    Zayn Malik | 21 years old
    Before the outbreak, Zayn was a fun-having, carefree college student. He went to university on a soccer (or football) scholarship and spent most of his time playing soccer and going to parties. He wasn't focused much on the future aside from playing professional sports one day. Zayn was never really hooked on one girl in school and instead jumped from girl to girl based on whatever he was feeling at the time.

    Being so athletic, Zayn was at an advantage when the apocalypse came. His coordination and athleticism allowed him to quickly figure out how to use weapons and he soon realized that he was a very good shot. His strength and stamina made it easy for him to kill hoards of zombies, as long as he remained quick on his feet.

    Weapons: rifle | hand gun | set of throwing knives | axe
    Jenny Grant | 20 years old | Dating Louis
    Jenny was in her third year of college when the apocalypse hit. She had plans to become a marketing director after she graduated, which was why she was getting her degree in marketing.
    Weapons:

    Character Points:
    -- Eden and Jenny got paired up as roommates their freshman year and were friends ever since. They were never best friends and had other friends besides each other, but they were still close.
    -- Louis, Eden and Jenny were in a group together for a small while before they grouped up with Zayn. Zayn came across Liam, Louis, Eden and Jenny in the midst of a zombie attack. Liam and Louis were trying to fight off a horde of zombies while the girls looked for a safe spot. When Eden got cornered, Zayn was there to rescue her. The boys got in a small stand off before Zayn agreed to show them his hiding place so they can stay for the night. When it gets overrun as well, they head out together to find somewhere safe. Eden blames herself for Zayn losing his safe spot.
    -- Eden spends most of her time alone reading through her medical textbook and trying to learn everything she can about medicine. She knows she isn't strong enough to be an asset anywhere else, so she tries to use her brain.
    -- Zayn is all about weapons and being strong. He eventually tries to help Eden learn to shoot properly.
    -- When Eden gets feelings for Zayn as the story progresses, she tries to bottle them up because she thinks the last place to fall in love with someone is during an apocalypse, but it proves to be impossible.
    -- Zayn thinks Eden is cute, but he isn't interested in finding a girl. He is too focused on trying to survive to think about dating anyone, but he quickly starts to get feelings for Eden.
    -- Zayn and Eden begin to show their feelings for one another when Zayn gets hurt really badly and Eden manages to stitch him up with the help of one of her medical textbooks.
    -- Zayn and Eden are both hesitant to tell each other how they feel because they don't want to get caught up in anything during the apocalypse.

    Hannah's Characters:
    Juliet Weiss | 20 years old | Love Interest: Harry Styles
    "I worked so hard and I'll I've got to show for it is a talent for stealing cars."

    Juliet was raised as an only child by her grandmother and grandfather; she was at the top of her class in secondary school and she got a full scholarship to college to major in education. A year into college she met a girl named Eloise who frog marched her into a ridiculous party. Four shots and an Irish Car Bomb later she pushed over a blond headed boy on her way to the bathroom so she could throw up.

    She stopped talking to Eloise but she kept talking to the blond boy, Niall Horan, who quickly became her second half. Everyone had joked that they were like a married couple, something that was only intensified when they got a flat together in Juliet's second year of college.

    When the virus broke out Niall and Eloise headed to the suburbs around the city to try and survive. Sleeping in an attic they lived off of increasingly stale crackers and cans of soup but when they ventured out into the world to find something better to eat they ran into Harry. After a tense Mexican standoff, Juliet and Niall agreed to let Harry tag along with them.

    Weapons: Crowbar | Machete | Hunting knife
    ----
    Niall Horan | 21 years old
    "We've gone through this much already, I'm not leaving now."

    A certified city boy, all Niall ever wanted to do was finish school so he could finally become a dentist but life basically knocked him straight out when he was forced to drop out of school because his grades were too low.

    He was attempting to get drunk enough to forget about the fact that he was late on his rent when he was knocked flat on his back by Juliet as she ran into the bathroom to vomit and he couldn't think of anything other than if she was ok. He didn't know it then but that was his future best friend and the person who would help bail him out when his rent was too late. Juliet and Niall moved in together and shared the messiest flat in the entire city.

    When all hell broke loose Niall was the one to take charge. He packed a backpack full of clothes, loaded everything they needed into Juliet's car and when she attempted to go find her grandparents he threw her into the car and they drove out to the suburbs and holed up in someones attic. They stayed there as long as they could but when the crackers finally ran out they left, hot wiring a car older than them. He wasn't sure where they were going but that didn't really matter. Two weeks later Niall and Juliet ran into Harry when they both shot at the same biter in the same drug store they were both looting. He didn't trust Harry from the start, something about his stupid hair set Niall on edge and he doesn't trust him now, when he sees him sitting closer and closer to Juliet ever day.

    Weapons: .22 rifle | baseball bat | Pistol
    ----
    Harry Styles | 20 years old
    "There's always a happy place, just rethink happy."

    Harry was one lucky guy. He was lucky to graduate school, lucky to get a decent desk job at his young age, lucky that he always managed to get the prettiest girl in the room. His luck ran out when the girl he had been seeing for a month turned into a biter and tried to take a chunk out of him. He left town as soon as he could, didn't the people in the movies always go to the woods?

    That's when his luck ran out; he didn't know how to survive in the woods so he stuck with the suburban areas, camping out on rooftops and balconies.

    His luck picked back up when he ran into Juliet and Niall. All he had wanted was a small bottle of shampoo but the isle had been blocked by a biter. At the same moment he pulled the trigger, a shot from his gun rang out. A knife was at his back in a second and he came face to face with a blond boy at the end of the isle. It took a lot of smooth talking and promises to get Juliet to lower the knife and a lot of annoyance to get Niall and Juliet to agree for him to tag along with them; they said yes after half an hour.

    It seems his luck has picked up once again.
    Weapons: Baseball bat | Rifle

    Character Points:
    -- Niall and Juliet were stuck in that awkward 'kinda friends, kinda more' stage before the apocalypse happened, after they didn't bother talking about it
    -- The two made a pact that if two years passed with no progress they would try to leave the country to see if anywhere else in the world had held up
    -- Juliet is good at breaking into things (cars, houses and stores) without catching unnecessary attention
    -- Sometime in the middle, Harry accidentally crashes the groups car, leaving him with injuries
    -- Niall keeps to himself when the large group comes together, he won't really trust any one other than Juliet

    Other Story Details/Ideas
    • set in the UK.
    • nine months in
    • Louis takes charge, especially after getting everyone to safety after an almost disaster.
      -- places they camp out
    • The Tomlinson Lake House, where Louis and Grace agreed to meet up at. (Everyone meet one another.)
    • Bed and breakfast is the main.
    • Start off by a mansion with a huge fence, and possibly when someone goes scavenging they'll forget to properly lock the fence (oooh problems), and they get run out. Afterwards the bed and breakfast will be found.
      -- what as been discussed
    • Eden's group found the lake house first and when they noticed some zombies converging on them they get ready to run. While they're defending the place, they notice someone shooting the zombies down from outside (It's Niall and he has no idea anyone is in the lake house). After all the zombies are gone Niall introduces himself and promises to bring his group back and when he does that's when Grace and Louis are reunited.
    • The group will freak out when they notice a horde making their way to the mansion, and Louis, Zayn and Michael would immediately take action before anyone. Although Louis is named leader, Zayn and Michael are the "Daryl" in the group by not wanting to take charge, but they're fully able too.

    Katie's Characters:
    Phoebe Adler | 20 years old | Love Interest: Zayn Malik
    Phoebe was in her second year of nursing school when the outbreak happened. She was just beginning to get into her nursing classes, so she only has a very basic knowledge of medicine, but she tries to use it as best she can. She carries with her a medical textbook and a few basic medicines.

    Her love of people and compassion are what drove Phoebe to become a nurse. She has a big heart and is very trusting of people, which caused her to have many problems with boys throughout college. After being dumped by her freshman year boyfriend, Phoebe decided to swear off men until she graduated, which she upheld until the outbreak happened. She didn't plan on finding anyone she'd have feelings for, so she rarely has her guard up around people.

    Though Phoebe carries a few weapons with her, she is pretty much useless with them. She never had any experience with weapons before the apocalypse and always cracks under the pressure when zombies are actually attacking. She relies on everyone else to protect her, which she hopes to repay with her knowledge of medicine.

    When the outbreak happened, Phoebe was at the hospital doing observation hours, so she saw some of the worst of it before she got sent home. Her roommate, Jenny, was still there and they vowed to stay together.
    Weapons: medicine | pistol | knife
    Zayn Malik | 21 years old
    Before the outbreak, Zayn was a fun-having, carefree college student. He went to university on a soccer (or football) scholarship and spent most of his time playing soccer and going to parties. He wasn't focused much on the future aside from playing professional sports one day. Zayn was never really hooked on one girl in school and instead jumped from girl to girl based on whatever he was feeling at the time.

    Being so athletic, Zayn was at an advantage when the apocalypse came. His coordination and athleticism allowed him to quickly figure out how to use weapons and he soon realized that he was a very good shot. His strength and stamina made it easy for him to kill hoards of zombies, as long as he remained quick on his feet.

    Weapons: rifle | hand gun | set of throwing knives | axe
    Jenny Grant | 20 years old
    Jenny was in her third year of college when the apocalypse hit. She had plans to become a marketing director after she graduated, which was why she was getting her degree in marketing.
    Weapons:

    Character Points:
    - Phoebe and Jenny got paired up as roommates their freshman year and were friends ever since. They were never best friends and had other friends besides each other, but they were still close.
    - Liam, Phoebe and Jenny were in a group together for a small while before they grouped up with Zayn. Zayn came across Liam, Phoebe and Jenny in the midst of a zombie attack. Zayn was on the roof of a small building, trying to take out a hoard of zombies, when he saw Liam, Phoebe and Jenny trying to fight off the zombies. Liam was doing the best that he could, but Jenny was little help and Phoebe was no help at all. Zayn helped them by shooting some of the zombies from the roof, and when he'd killed them all, Zayn went down to see if they were all okay. He then joins their group.
    - Phoebe spends most of her time alone reading through her medical textbook and trying to learn everything she can about medicine. She knows she isn't strong enough to be an asset anywhere else, so she tries to use her brain.
    - Zayn is all about weapons and being strong. He eventually tries to help Phoebe learn to shoot properly.
    - When Phoebe gets feelings for Zayn as the story progresses, she tries to bottle them up because she thinks the last place to fall in love with someone is during an apocalypse, but it proves to be impossible.
    - Zayn thinks Phoebe is cute, but he isn't interested in finding a girl. He is too focused on trying to survive to think about dating anyone, but he quickly starts to get feelings for Phoebe.
    - Zayn and Phoebe begin to show their feelings for one another when Zayn gets hurt really badly and Phoebe manages to stitch him up with the help of one of her medical textbooks.
    - Zayn and Phoebe are both hesitant to tell each other how they feel because they don't want to get caught up in anything during the apocalypse.

    @ ace merrill.
    I think right now it looks like the only people that aren't in a set group are my girl, Liam and Zayn? Since Louis is with the two extras you mentioned? I guess I'll just have my group be my girl, Liam, Zayn and another extra girl. If you want Liam in another group, I'll just add a different extra character in place of him!

    I've added your characters to the thing.
    We also need to figure out a place they would be able to settle down for a while before getting run out? Also maybe a couple of them butt heads. Michael and Niall are similar, would they interact, or keep to themselves?

    I was thinking that Louis would try to take charge, would that end up causing a problem with one of your characters or one of the other 1D members?

    And Louis and Liam are in a group, Liam is the one who finds Grace and brings her to Louis. I don't know who the two extras are, lol. I was hoping it could either of your characters, or just one other?

    1. Would that summer camp that you originally mentioned be a good place for that or was that to be used at a later time? If not that, a few ideas: a hotel that was closed because it was being remodeled (so no zombies in there except maybe a few workers), an old bed and breakfast or a mansion with a large fence.

    2. Hmm, Zayn is sort of a testosterone filled masculine type, so possibly him Think I think they would either team up really well or really butt heads XD Maybe Louis is like the brains and Zayn is like the brawn? Phoebe wouldn't care though.

    3. Then my characters for sure! So, the group would be Louis, Liam, Zayn, Phoebe and Jenny then. I only have to change a little bit of my bio to add Louis. Did you check out my origin story to see if it flies with your characters? XD Oh, and Jenny is always an option if you'd like Louis to have a lady friend!

    @ ace merrill.

    - I like Katie's idea of a large bed and breakfast, one that's brick so you wouldn't really have to worry about fire to much. And then just destroy the staircase and live upstairs and use a ladder to get up and down.

    - I think Harry might have a problem with Louis taking charge at first until he realizes that he himself would have no absoulte talent at being a leader and would get everyone killed XD maybe after they're attacked and Louis is the reason that they get out safely

    - I think Niall and Michael would interact pretty well, Niall would be sick of Harry and he needs someone other than Juliet to talk to, I think he would probably get along well with everyone but he wouldn't really inject himself into conversations or anything with anyone but Juliet and Michael.

    Also, in this world that we'll be writing is it going to be one of those world where the idea of zombies are never apparent, like there have been no movies or books about it, or are zombies going to already be a known thing?

    I like the bed and breakfast too! Especially if it's like some cute cottage on the country side. It could be fun.

    I think it might make more sense if the world new what zombies were beforehand. Then it wouldn't be as much of an AU XD

    I like those ideas! We can definitely do the bed and breakfast. tehe We can start off by a mansion with a huge fence, and possibly when someone goes scavenging they'll forget to properly lock the fence (oooh problems), and they get run out? And then the bed and breakfast will be found?

    Alright, going off your idea Hannah, the group can be freaking out when they notice a horde or so making their way to the mansion, and Louis, Niall and Michael would immediately take action before anyone. Niall and Michael would probably end up being "Daryl" in the group, not wanting to take charge, but they're fully able too. How does that sound? Shifty

    OK, I like that. Niall and Michael being friends, since Michael's first friend was/is Grace.

    And I was thinking that it in that world it would be known. But maybe a few only call them zombies? Michael and Grace call them corpses, because they think it sounds cooler.

    Also how far in the story would the apocalypse be? With my last group we agreed on 9 months, do you want to continue that? Or make it less 6-7?

    That sounds good to me!

    I have Zayn as being really good with weapons so I'm not sure how he would fit into the whole thing. I would have him be like a weakling so we have some more diversity but I don't really see Zayn fitting that XD

    @ ace merrill.

    That sound's good!

    I think for time period it should be around nine months, you're getting close to a year, more people are dead and eveything will be a bit more run down and old.

    Hm.. isn't Zayn like super smart though? XD He can have massive knowledge on something that's a huge plus to the group.

    I also read through your points, do you think you can switch Liam with Louis? to be with the girls before they meet Zayn, or after? Louis can be dating Jenny when the apocalypse happened? Because I was gonna make it so Liam is this big burly man who don't need other people. He's a huge family man, but he basically left his family for dead because he didn't want to see them in that type of situation/world. And so he took the chance to leave before one of them gets bit/sick.

    @ bibles.

    Also when I make the banner, which characters do you want on it? Just your #1 OC?

    Just the one OC is fine. If you need a different picture she's Emily Kinney and her gallery is here.
