Oscar’s faceclaim is TRAVIE MCCOY and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Oscar always had a bad habit of mixing business with pleasure. During college, where he studied talent agency, he’d work at a shitty local radio station in his free time to up his work experience, but spent most of his time fooling around with the DJ’s track list and his colleges. Graduating college, however, meant new beginnings, and the second he got his hands on his degree, he worked on getting his name out there. Jonah Daniels, a young talent from Massachusetts just so happened to be looking for a manager at the time and they clicked fast, soon working together.

It was perhaps slightly unwise to start a relationship with his employer, but Jonah was endearing and coy and Oscar couldn’t see the harm at the time. It wasn’t until several months later - several months of Jonah being clingy but frigid; only ever willing to fool around or show Oscar off in public - before the older man grew tired of feeling either suffocated or undesirable and put an end to the affair. He grew exhausted with worrying that Jonah was only pretending to be interested for show. Jonah was left feeling bitter and angry and refused to end their five-year contract. Needless to say, Oscar found it difficult to find a new love interest, even suspecting that Jonah, dramatic as ever, schemed and wrecked any relationship the man tried to have after that.

He managed to seal deals with a few more local talents, making excuses to spend a little less time with Jonah, and even reconnected with his parents, who he lost touch with after moving out for college. It was then that he realized how consumed he had been with Jonah - unfortunately, he didn’t realize that, although less intense, it was still very much the case, bending to the man’s every wish as he felt he had no other option.

He and Jonah were at a rehearsal when they witnessed the disaster first-hand; chased out of the car park in a minivan by a handful of walkers. Jonah had bitched and wined during the whole journey about how it would have been his big break, and Oscar forced himself not to snap the man’s neck there and then, having found his company unbearable during the months following their break up.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Once they arrived at the camp, Oscar became a camp supervisor, making sure everything is in order and everybody is still within the safety of the base. In the meantime, he avoids Jonah as the kid continues to insist that they follow through with their contract, despite the end of the damn world. If he isn’t avoiding the man, or following his orders just to shut him up, Oscar is trying his best to mingle with the other camp members, desperate to create any connection that isn’t Jonah.

Despite his absolute disdain, Oscar mainly finds himself continuing to follow Jonah’s orders thanks to his lack of knowing how not to. After years of following his instructions, the man simply does not remember how not to devote himself to Jonah. More importantly, he hasn’t yet realized how unhealthy that is.

Jacob’s faceclaim is ALFRED ENOCH and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Jacob Tucker never knew his father, and was raised single-handedly by his mother who, although a drunk and perhaps a poor role model, he admired. When Jake was seventeen, his mother fell pregnant with a second child – again accidentally, again by a man who was to cowardly to stick around. It was no surprise that the woman didn’t clear herself up during her pregnancy a hand-full of intoxicated nights cause her to give birth to a tiny, unhealthy baby boy several months later. The baby was left with birth defects, affecting both his brain and the formation of his other organs. She called him James, because she ‘liked how well it fit beside the name Jacob’, but it seemed that the love wasn’t enough to keep her sober for any more than a few months after.

Jacob wasn’t sure that the fact that the baby wasn’t taken away could be called a miracle, but he swore that for as long as he could he would care for him. Jacob found himself doing exactly that, even dropping out of school to care for him throughout the day. His mother’s condition seemed to worsen, until two years later, when Jacob convinced her to admit herself into a rehabilitation center. From then on, he took care of James alone, and the two grew up to be closer than any average siblings.

In time, Jacob lost touch with his mother and she seemed to lose interest when he’d bring his brother to visit. He found himself to be too distracted to care though, feeling perfectly content with the two-person family he had, as was his brother. He got a full time job at a garage close to his home, where he worked whilst James was at school. He was adamant that James would live a normal life, and so his brother spent a lot of time in after-school clubs and had scheduled days to visit friends whilst his older brother was working, but nobody was ever patronizing or judging, and were always willing to help. But Jake would still take James to school, feed him, bathe him, read to him, do anything he possibly could for him.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

He’ll never forgive himself for not going back for his mother, but when the alert was sounded, Jacob just grabbed his brother and ran. They hitched rides and walked for miles before they reached the camp in Jersey and only then did the young man look back in shame. Once they were given accommodation in the camp, Jacob busied himself with duties in mechanics in order to keep his mind off his mother, whilst attempting to act unphased as his younger brother would keep him company as he worked.

Now, when he isn’t working, Jacob is mingling. There are very few perks of the disaster, but if he could name one, it would be the freedom he now has. He loves his brother. He loves him with every ounce of his being, but with years of pressure and responsibilities, he’s never actually had the chance to truly settle down. Now though, you’ll find him sweet talking anybody that’ll let him and helping where he can, just for his own satisfaction.

Serena’s faceclaim is Kelsey Chow and she is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Serena Knowels was raised in a simple suburban home by her parents and her grandmother, who moved in to their guest room when the girl was eight. At a young age, Serena took up martial arts, following her grandmother’s accusation of ‘children these days having no passion’. As it happened, the girl did find passion in the hobby, and continued with it since then, progressing quickly.

When she was thirteen, her mother fell pregnant and their family were at their highest point of happiness - Serena was getting paid in small amounts after progressing enough to teach the basics to younger pupils in her martial arts class, her parents had a baby on the way, and her grades were better than ever, finding another passion, this time in psychology. That all ended though, when her mother miscarried. From then on, things became strange… They all went about their business the same, but it suddenly seemed scripted, like they were all running on autopilot. When her mother became depressed and distant, her father drifting away also as he began to focus soley on her mother’s needs. Serena began to hate being home, now feeling uncomfortable in the presence of her own family and soon she was spending more nights at friends’ houses than she was at her own. She became more independent quickly, falling in and out of relationships during her teenage years.

Her grandmother passed away when she was seventeen years old, and shortly after, after finishing high school, Serena moved away to studdy psychology in Massachusetts. There, she met a group of people both in class and around campus that made her feel more at home than she had in years. The following year, they found a house to rent and all moved in together, living close to college. Unfortunately, Serena later realised that college wasn’t for her – enjoying her time out of class but not so much her time learning. So, after much consideration, she chose to drop out and instead began work at a local gym, where she rediscovered her love for martial arts and became a trainer, continuing to live with her friends despite taking a new path.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

It was Jac, Serena’s close friend and housemate -whom she met during freshers’ party in her first year- that alerted them about the virus, after a business call from Morris, New Jersey, took an unexpected turn. The five of them crammed car and began their long journey to the town they were advised to go to for safety, with nothing but extra gas and junk food. They arrived hours later, shaken and tired, but were welcomed easily. The boys were separated from the girls, but were put in neighbouring apartments.

Serena found herself with the role of combat trainer, teaching the runners as much as possible before they venture out of the sanctuary for supplies.

Sophie’s faceclaim is Arden Cho and she is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

During high school, Sophie Khan was popular, desirable and terrifying, all at the same time. She spent most of her time hanging off the arm of her boyfriend, James, during these years. She did well in her classes, despite the stereotypes that may be fitted to her - she wasn’t a cheerleader or a bimbo, just sort of a bitch. She was the prettiest girl, without a doubt, and despite her nasty nature, she had a large group of friends… At least that’s what she thought.

Three months before the end of her junior year, she was diagnosed with cancer and it left her completely shaken. At first, she kept her mouth shut, told only her boyfriend and closest friends, but the word slowly got out somehow, and before long the school knew. This wasn’t necessarily a bad thing, not until she had to take time of when she began her treatment. During this time, she was visited by James, but when she began to notice that she was having no visits from anybody else, at least no more than once, she quite easily realized and accepted who her real friends were - or weren’t.

She ended up returning to school for her final year, despite still going through treatment. She returned a completely different girl. The months she spent with nobody but her family and James was a huge slap in the face - ill or not, she’d never felt so much love, not needing sleazy messages from guys from school, overly friendly greetings from girls she barely knew, or invites to parties held by strangers, to feel good. She returned to school with no interest in what she’d cared for before. She hung around with the same few people, but her personality had flipped - now more genuine and polite, with a whole new appreciation for life.

James changed too, going from a cocky immature boy that flirted with any girl he saw, to a dedicated, loyal man with eyes only for Sophie - although still cocky and obnoxious as ever, traits she’d only ever loved anyway. Unexpectedly, the kids at school adapted quickly and soon lost interest in the girl who went from loud mouthed to softly spoken. She became modest and humble, even more so after her return, and by the time she graduated, working hard between the ups and downs of recovery, Sophie was still as close to ever with James, and as everybody else stopped caring, she did too.

The day the doctor told her that the cancer had gone was the day that James proposed, only two years later. They moved in together not long after, Sophie already working as an intern at their local hospital and James playing football professionally for their hometown whilst attending college. She felt as if it was too good to be true, and it was. When one of the patients at her work took a turn for the worst, thrashing and hissing and biting the nurses, all staff and patient were evacuated and that night, they heard the news about the virus.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

The two of them drove to New Jersey alone, unable to contact their families in time. Originally they simply wanted to get as far from the source of the virus as possible, but when they spotted the coordinates dotted around New Jersey, they followed the graffiti up until they hit the pile-up of cars where they were forced to walk the last few miles. Fortunately, they were met with a small group of people after the first few blocks, who were coming from the camp in Morris in search of supplies and survivors. They lead the couple back to their base, where they were promised safety. Sophie, still weak from her treatment and not officially cancer free until she was clear for two years, was told that she was not fit to be a runner, which she didn’t mind. She had the option to be a free-loader, but insisted on becoming a wanderer, nursing injured or ill members in the camp.

She hates to see James working as a runner, but can’t deny that he is one of the best for the job. Unaware of their past, most people in the camp can’t get their heads around why such a quiet, kind woman would be engaged to a loud, obnoxious jock, but the two of them brush it off, sure that they couldn’t be more perfect for each other after all they’ve been through.

David’s faceclaim is LUKE NEWBERRY and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Ever since David could remember, he’s always been dubbed, ‘the dude with the accent’. His family moved from Ireland when he was 6 years old, taking up residence in Boston, Massachusetts, but still clinging to the culture they loved back home. Soft spoken, shy and kindhearted, he often suffered at the hands of his peers and became known as something as a push-over. He excelled in his classes, and it became apparent that he had an affinity with home economics and art, as well as science. He decided from an early age that he wanted to do something with medicine, finding joy in helping those he could.

As he grew older, he started attracting the attention of one of his high school teachers, a married man who thought little of his intelligence and merely noticed his 'pretty face’. David, an innocent 16 year old, was flattered and overwhelmed by his teachers attitude towards him, unused to kindness outside of his home. The teacher would later take advantage of this. Afterward, he began treating David harshly, blaming him for what happened and David, terrified of what people would say remained silent. Two years later, David finally told his mom and the guy was arrested. Although the man was gone, the effect he had on David lasted a long time, causing him to have an even quieter and unsure nature.

He decided to study medicine in college and when there tried to create a new life for himself, accepting the invitation to a freshers party. He hadn’t thought about how loud it would be and spent most of his night in a panicky state, pushed into the corner of the main room. That’s how he met Matthew, who noticed his unease and dragged him outside, before shoving a bottle of water in his hand and talking him down from the impending panic attack with kind words and a gentle smile. From that point on the two were inseparable, they were polar opposites, Matthew being loud and excitable and David quiet and collected but Matthew understood him better than most and slowly started to help him become more open and confident.

When Matthew was asked to live with another 3 students, he asked David to come with him and David, who may or may not have been enamored with Matthew at the time, jumped at the chance.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

David was cooking when he got the news and will forever mourn what he expected to be the goddamn best pie he had ever made in his life. All he hoped is that the fire caused by their temperamental oven took a few of them out with it. He remembers Matthew coming in, moaning about how awful his day was, saying something about the end of the world. So he’d started making him his favorite meal in the hopes of making it a little better.

Of course then the world did actually decide to end and they were forced to escape in a car that said it could fit 5 people but certainly didn’t feel like it. Jac was talking hurriedly about a safe house in New Jersey, but David was worried for his parents. After a brief dismissal by Matthew, which upset him more than anyone else in the car, after all his parents were nothing but supportive, the group decided to go straight for the safe zone.

When there, his medical skills were quickly put to use. Being one of only two people with medical knowledge in the entire camp made him pretty valuable and his cooking skills became handy more than once. He quickly became far more accepted in the community than he had anywhere else and appreciated the fact that he could be useful and do the job he had always wanted to, even if the circumstances were less than satisfactory.

Thomas’ faceclaim is FREDDIE HIGHMORE and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Growing up with a strong relationship with his older brother, Thomas took on a lot of his traits. Like his older brother, the boy was kind hearted and soft spoken, caring and selfless, motivated and dedicated. He prided himself in this and, even as he grew older, tried his best to be just like Logan. Despite his absent mother (who left when he was one) and a father who was rarely home due to traveling for work, Tom would always make an effort to see the man every chance he had, as well as his older siblings, all whilst also still in school and working part-time at a convenience store.

When his father suffered brain damage from a car accident, Thomas spend time with him whenever the teen wasn’t working at the store or at school, along with his sister Annie, who gave up work altogether to care for the man full-time. With his older brother no longer living with them but residing locally, Tom could only ever see him on Logan’s terms from then on, but their relationship never for a second weakened.

Once Logan alerted the rest of the family about the corpses he’d seen wandering the streets, they felt that they had no choice but to put their house under lock down, unable to travel with their ill father. However, after two weeks, once their resources were running slim, they were forced to leave. His siblings made the decision to turn off their father’s life machine and, after saying their final goodbyes, the three of them climbed into their father’s jeep and left.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

They found the camp by fluke, simply driving aimlessly until they saw the graffiti scattered around New Jersey. They followed the directions, each spray painted instruction different as they got closer to the camp, until they finally arrived. They were all roomed together and Tom volunteered to work with his brother as welcoming committee, eager as ever to follow in his footsteps despite having the option to reside there without working due to his age. His sister followed their footsteps also.

Matthew’s faceclaim is DYLAN O’BRIEN and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Everyone who knew Matthew Henry -nicknamed Matt by, well, everyone- always referred to him in a certain way; “he’s nice, but he can be, y'know, a little douchey”. Being wealthy, athletic and (mostly) friendly, he maintained a high popularity throughout his youth and young adulthood. He was never they type to be needlessly mean, but he’d also never hold his tongue for anyone. His father and mother were old fashioned and strict, with a rocky relationship only cemented by the prospect of appearance. His father mostly away for business, him and his mother would spend weeks at a time in cold silence, which became tense silence with the appearance of his overbearing and controlling father. Despite their aloof nature, his parents’ wealth allowed him to mostly get whatever he wanted, contributing to his halfway cocky and almost snobbish nature.

When it came time for him to go to college, he decided to stay in his home state of Massachusetts, unwilling and anxious to be too far from everything he knew. He joined the college soccer team at the first opportunity, being renowned as one of the best and fastest players on the team. He met Serena at a dorm party and they quickly became friends and, desperate to get out of his oppressive household, he jumped at the chance of escape when she offered him a place to live with two other acquaintances from college. He invited a friend of his own along also; David, who he met when the kid was mid-panic attack at a dorm party. His parents sent him monthly payments on the condition that he take business classes in order to obtain a job at his fathers company, an idea he despised.

Growing more and more frustrated with his parents orders, he began to skip his classes and devote more time to soccer, whilst working at a local bar to get enough money to drop his business class and become fully independent. Two months later, he was earning enough to get by on his own and had acquired a circle of good friends, some of which he would have never seen himself being friends with. He spent a lot of his time with his housemates and his girlfriend, Annie, but would more than likely be seen with his new best friend and polar opposite, David Murphy.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Matthew loves to joke that when it happened, the only thing that would have made his day worse was the world ending. In fact, David distinctly remembers him saying that after he walked through the door, having just had a cataclysmic argument with Annie, resulting in her breaking up with him and his father calling to tell him that his patience had ran out and he would no longer be supporting him, growing tired of the extra years he kept adding onto his college degree.

Hours after saying the almost prophetic words, Serena had barged in, screaming about how they had to leave, Jacs in the car, there’s no time left, we need to leave now. Matthew mostly remembers being confused and then horrified when he saw the chaos outside and when the others spoke about finding their parents, his answer was instinctive. “No, its too dangerous. Better to protect ourselves than risk dying. The lives of 5 people are more useful than 5 deaths.” They quickly reached the safe zone, scared and in shock and were hurried inside. Due to his athleticism, speed and tactical knowledge, he was chosen as a runner, capable of getting out of tight situations on his running skill alone.

Georgia’s faceclaim is EMILIA CLARKE and she is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

In every class she’d ever taken, Georgia Dyer had been the brainiac. She often struggled to make friends, people making quick assumptions that the girl was a square, or just simply uninterested because of her dedication to her learning, but once the girl managed to get talking, friends were always easy for her to keep. She wasn’t exactly exciting or really all that funny, but she was kind and loyal, and that was hard for others to miss.

She lived with her parents and younger brother until she moved away to Maine for college, where she studied psychology. During this time, she met a girl named Serena, who went on to introduce her to more friends. They all clicked quickly, their personalities all very different but some how fitting together perfectly and, by the time their first year of college ended, the five of them decided to all move in to their first house together, living near-by to the campus.

Even after Serena dropped out of college (deciding to continue living with friends as she went on to find a job) Georgia continued to enjoy her class, despite no longer sharing a classroom with her friend. Everyone in her class seemed to be just as motivated as herself and therefore made no assumptions about the girl like the kids in high school had, and so she found it easy to chat to her classmates.

She worked long hours as a receptionist at a local hotel to earn money for her shared home, and got the weekends off to hang out with her friends - although most of this time was spent studying more for finals. She perhaps wasn’t as close to her friends as they were to each other, simply because she spend more time away from them, but they all treated her just the same, and that’s really all she needed.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Jac had been the one to alert the rest of the housemates of the virus and the camp in Morris, Jew Jersey, after a business call from the area took an unexpected turn. The five friends crammed in to a car and filled the trunk with spare gas -and the gaps with junk food- and drove until they arrived. There were all forced to forget about their families, having no time or space for them.

Georgia was roomed with Jac and Serena, next door to the two boys, and put in charge of the residents log, keeping records of everybody’s names, ages, rooming arrangement and roles in the camp, in order to keep a tab on every person that resides there.

Jacqueline’s faceclaim is EMMA WATSON and she is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Because of her mother’s demanding job, Jacqueline was raised mainly by her father, who worked from home. This caused her to be particularly close to the man, the two of them having a trusting and honest relationship. She’d always found interest in drama, but never actually actively took part in the art form until high school, where she joined the drama club and performed in any high school production that she could.

To her annoyance, Jac only ever played minor roles, but didn’t let this knock her for a second. He managed to score a few roles in small television shows, just as an extra, as well as adverts and even a local amateur music video, but other than that her career never really took off. Still, she continued to try – even going on to study drama in college.

She chose to stay in her home town of Massachusetts in order to keep in touch with her father, even after moving out in order to live with new friends that she made during her studies. Her closest friend, Serena, was the one to suggest they all moved in together. She lived with four friends, all of which she met by coincidence on campus, and soon they had a small group of housemates sharing a five-bedroom house close-by.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Hearing about the virus was a complete fluke. Jac had been offered a role for a movie that was to be filmed in Jersey – although it was only another extra role, it was the biggest project she’d been offered an opportunity to be involved with. The student had made a business call to confirm their plans, but in return she was told that there will be no movie. The man had told her that a virus had been discovered –‘haven’t they heard the news in Massachusetts’, he’d asked- and that if she wanted to survive it she needed to move fast. She gathered her friends, told them the news and, after convincing them that she wasn’t crazy, they left as soon as possible. Her only regret was that she could not get into contact with her parents in time.

Once arriving at the camp with only spare gas and junk food to offer, after a long journey in a tiny car, the were allowed entrance. The boys were separated from the girls, but they stayed in neighbouring apartments. Jacqueline became the supervisor of the wanderers, directing those whose jobs are to run errands and substitute for other wanderers for whatever reason it may be.

Trudy’s faceclaim is EMILY BETT RICKARDS and she is RESERVED

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Trudy Rivers was born to Mary and Robert Rivers. The Rivers were very caring parents, her mother working two jobs and her father constantly putting in for overtime at the office, just praying for that raise that never seemed to come, to make sure Trudy would never do without. A few years later, when Trudy was around 7, something unexpected happened. Mary fell pregnant for a second time. The couple shared hushed conversations about the child for many weeks, not knowing if they would be able to bring another child into the world with so little money. However, before long Mary began to show and Trudy started to ask questions. As soon as they told her that she may be getting a younger brother or sister, Trudy’s eyes became bright as she clung to her mother’s stomach and grinned. From then on, Trudy could usually be found with a protective arms around her mother or whispering to her bump about how much fun they were going to have together. Then, finally, Nancy was born. Trudy was captivated by her younger sister, always asking her mother questions and pestering her until Trudy was allowed to hold the baby for a while which usually ended in Trudy refusing to give her back.

As they grew older, Trudy kept her protective nature over her sister without being too overbearing. She would help Nancy curl her hair and choose outfits for dates, with Nancy doing the same for her. But then their father was laid off and the struggle set in. Trudy and Nancy had to stop being up to date with the latest trends like their friends and Nancy would usually be found in Trudy’s hand-me-downs whilst Trudy could be found in her mother’s. Seeing her sister struggle into a top that was obviously too big for her, Trudy decided that she had to take action. Trudy started working at the “All-in” diner in town every night after school to help to bring in extra funds into the household to go towards her sister’s well-being.

At the time, this selfless act seemed like no big deal to Trudy but, as the years went on, she realised something - she was stuck. Trudy had carried on working at the dinner until she was 25. Her grades weren’t at all exceptional and she wasn’t particularly talented or funny, Trudy had truly no idea where she wanted to go with her life.

Trudy was at work when the outbreak hit. Not understanding why the Diner was so bare of customers, Trudy decided to finish her shift early and head home. The scene that she was met with is one that shall be scorched into her brain forever. In the Dining room of their home sat her parents. Trudy called out to them, her usual smile on her face morphing into a frown as they did not reply. Turning the corner slightly she noticed a third figure in the room who had their head bowed into her mother’s neck. Were they crying? Maybe Trudy had interrupted something personal and that’s why they weren’t acknowledging her. Shrugging, Trudy started making her way to her room. Moving to climb the stairs, her foot hit a loose floorboard and a loud creak echoed through the home. The figure raised their head and looked at Trudy. Trudy fought back a scream, her hands coming up to cover her mouth, as she finally took in the scene before her. The figure’s mouth was covered in blood and was chewing on what looked like her mother’s neck. Trudy stumbled backwards, not being able to comprehend what she was seeing as her mother’s body fell to the floor, her eyes open and piercing. Trudy screamed and scrambled back to her feet before managing to flee the house. That day Trudy ran and she hasn’t stopped since.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Trudy was at work when the outbreak hit. Not understanding why the Diner was so bare of customers, Trudy decided to finish her shift early and head home. The scene that she me with is one that shall be scorched into her brain forever. In the Dining room sat her parents, Trudy called out to them, her usual smile in her face morphing into a frown as they did not reply. Turning the corner slightly she noticed a third figure in the room who had their head bowed into her mother’s neck. Were they crying? Maybe Trudy had interrupted something personal and that’s why they weren’t acknowledging her. Shrugging, Trudy started making her way to her room and stood on a loose floorboard which caused an echoing creek to fill the house. The figure raised their head and looked at Trudy. Trudy fought back a scream, her hands coming up to cover her mouth, as she finally took in the scene before her. The figure’s mouth was covered in blood and was chewing on what looked like her mother’s neck. Trudy stumbled backwards, not being able to comprehend what she was seeing as her mother’s body fell to the floor, her eyes open and piercing. Trudy screamed and scrambled back to her feet before managing to flee the house. That day Trudy ran and she hasn’t stopped since.

Andrew’s faceclaim is JACK BARAKAT and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Andrew can’t remember a whole lot about his family. He remembers the time he spent with them, the arguments they’d had over bad grades and worse life choices, but somewhere in the short time between the day he ran away at age eighteen and now, their faces, voices, aspects of them that he didn’t care to remember had quickly faded from his mind. He was always some-what of a rebel, in the sense that he’d skip school, leave his home for long amounts of time unannounced and find it hard to obey other people’s rules and orders. He had a bad habit of being two-faced and snide towards ‘friends’, finding himself easily annoyed in anyone’s company. He put it down to vanity – he loved his own company too much to care for anyone else’s.

He loved to live and work alone, becoming his own ring leader and dismissing the rules of anybody around him. He fell into the new lifestyle a lot easier than most, picking up tactics just from watching those around him. He learnt that it was easier to steal from those in the big cities than those in smaller towns, since they were mostly people in a hurry, and they usually had more for him to take. Not only that, but he also picked up a few tips as he grew older on how not to be robbed himself - something that was proven to be particularly useful when he was twenty, still not great at his ‘profession’.

The boy that attempted to take whatever useless junk Andy had in his bag was called Johnathan, and the boy was clearly startled when he was caught, making it apparent that it didn’t happen regularly. After a little negotiation however -Andy shaken up from almost being thieved for the first time, and John in the same state for being caught- the boys found that they had rather a lot in common, and made an agreement. John would teach Andrew to steal without getting caught, and Andy would teach John to keep what he had safe, since he’d had trouble with taking care of his own belongings in the past.

The two men became closer and closer in time, John being the first person to put up with his attitude and the first person Andy could stand. They could never afford luxury with their lifestyle, but soon left the hostel they’d found not long after meeting, and began to rent an apartment in California. This is where they stayed until the virus broke.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

It wasn’t hard for the two friends to steal a car to get them out of California, originally heading south, away from where they heard the virus was discovered, but soon making a U-turn when they heard about the camp in Morris. They arrived that same day with a car full of all of the few valuables they had. Once they arrived, they were given a hotel room to share and were soon promoted to runners.

However, after only a few weeks ‘out on the field’, the leaders had no choice but to demote Andy to a wanderer, thanks to his inability to comply to their rules. With knowledge of all of the possible hiding places which he gained from pickpocketing, he now spends his time in the camp, patting down both newcomers and returning runners to ensure their base has access to all of the supplies they need. Although he still wishes to be out on the field, he now works hard to prove that he can take orders - although, on occasion, he’s been known to make an exception for his old friend John, allowing the man to keep some of the item’s he’d found for himself and often pockets whatever catches his own eye.

Johnathan’s faceclaim is ALEX GASKARTH and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

When he was younger, Johnathan had no friends. The other, crueller kids in his home town would tease and torment him endlessly, steal whatever he carried with him, food or money, simply because they could. They made a fool out of him every chance they got, leaving the young boy scared to leave his home or walk by himself through the town. He even began to miss school, walking around the streets until the other kids were out again which was when Johnathan would run back home. His parent’s didn’t care though, too lazy to make an effort to change things.

It was a Sunday night and the seventeen year-old had spent hours on his plan. His parents no longer wanted him around, fed up of him, and the children at school were clearly not ready to drop their unkindness, so that night he packed just one bag with everything he thought he needed; money from his dad’s wallet, along with the man’s pocket knife, and filled whatever room he had left with food. If anybody asked, Johnathan had come from a rich family with lots of friends but wanted to rebel, go somewhere new, so he ran away simply in need of excitement. He set out on foot, walking on and off for days until he reached a run-down town. It wasn’t the best living environment, but he saw the poor people lying on the ground, the more fortunate locked inside their off-centre houses with their curtains drawn and he knew that for now, this was the closest he’d get to fitting in.

Within weeks, John was getting the hang of his new life. He ran out of food quickly but after only a few weeks of practicing, he’d almost mastered pick-pocketing and stealing in general. It wasn’t what he stood for, but he was left with no other choice. It quickly became a habit, however, and soon he was stealing for the sake of it from anybody and anywhere he could in any way he could think of. He made friends along the way who he’d share his winnings with, and made some amazing memories in the years he took to squatting in abandoned buildings with people in similar situations to himself, but every so often he would move on, start anew.

It was when he was twenty that he met a more permanent companion. He’d tried to pick-pocket a man of his age but, for the first time in years, John was caught. The guy –whose name he learnt was Andy- clearly was familiar with the art, and after a bad first impression, the two of them formed an unlikely friendship. He’d agreed to give Andrew some help with his stealing, if Andy helped John protect what he already had. He’d been pick-pocketed himself, and he needed a way to prevent it.

As they grew older, John and Andy remained best friends and found new ways to make money. They’d have one night stands with strangers and leave with whatever valuables they could get their hands on before morning, as well as working together to execute larger tasks. They shared their own apartment in California before long, which is where they lived until the virus was discovered.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

After stealing a car that they filled with what little things of value they had and heading south, away from the origin on the virus, the two men heard the signal boosts from Doctor Death and headed the opposite way instantly. They arrived later that day and were given a hotel room to share. Shortly after they were both trained to be runners, which they continued to be for a few weeks, before Andy was demoted due to his lack of cooperation, leaving John to work without him for the first time in years.

Despite this, the two still found cunning ways to work against the system. John would sneak back items for the two of them to keep for themselves, which Andy, working now as a security guard, let slide every time.

Dylan’s faceclaim RYAN ROSS and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Dylan never really tried very hard in school. He gained wisdom where he lacked intelligence – something that just wasn’t enough to get him any further than graduation. He could spit out random and irrelevant facts like he had an infinite supply, but they were never enough to make up for the interest he lacked in academic knowledge. After deciding not to go to college, it only took a few weeks of job hunting before the teenager panicked. He couldn’t find the right work for him and didn’t want a job that he hated after having only just left a place he had no passion for. That’s when he chose to join the army. With his parents’ consent –who only seemed pleased that the boy way making something out of himself- he signed up immediately and awaited their response.

A few years later, Dylan found himself in Syria, fighting as a royal marine – something he’d worked hard for throughout his previous years. After his training, everything tended to move quickly, groups were kitted up and send out, brought back in again, recalled when they were needed and repeat, repeat, repeat. There was never a mission he’d shy away from and he’s let nothing hold him back. That was, up until he was twenty-four years old. In all of his five years as a marine, things had never been so tense. He was out with three other men – it was only supposed to be a case of patrolling the ground, checking that abandoned buildings were still as such, but a hard blow from his right hand side flipped the whole mission around.

Two of the men were killed. After a short while of running, ducking, hiding shooting, shouting, bangs, smashes, noisesnoisesnoises, they were shot; one -Oliver- in the head and the other -Dean- in the shoulder. Dean lived, but only for a while before a grenade followed, which took not only his life, but Michael’s -the third male’s- leg and Dylan’s consciousness, until he awoke later back at the base.

He tried to continue his work, but when clicks of doors began to sound more like crashes and bangs, or laughs were mistaken for cries for help, he was given leave, deemed unfit to serve as a marine any longer and was laer diagnosed with PTSD. However, things only got worse at home, he’d see his fellow soldiers’ faces more –never clear and well, always bloody and torn- he’d hear the chillingly short bang of the explosion, would sit up in the night, shaking and wheezing. Since then, he’d only ever worked simple jobs, in stores or offices, even moving back in with his parents when living alone began to take its toll on him.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

After Dylan’s return, his father was sure to keep all of the household guns out of sight –more so to keep the man from panicking at the sight than the fear of him actually attempting to use one. When the young man heard the warning on the radio, he skipped through the stations, just to be sure it was true until he landed on Dr. Death’s station just as the announcement ended, which was when he heard about the sanctuary there. He tried to contact his family, waited a whole weak for them, but with no reply, he had no choice but to leave alone, digging out the guns in a panic, packing them up before he had enough time to think and getting into his truck with all the food he could find.

By the time he got to the camp, Dylan still had no response from his family, and only then did reality hit. He’d seen too much death to be able to deny it of its inevitability, and so, when asked about his family, he’d never even bother to say they were missing, instead simply pronouncing them dead. He decided to help within the camp after deciding that he wasn’t fit to be a runner but chose not to share his reasoning with his camp mates out of shame and embarrassment.

Tyler’s faceclaim MICHAEL CLIFFORD and he is RESERVED

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Unlike a lot of people in the small town he was raised in, Tyler Parker was never a very religious person. His mother took him to church every Sunday morning, but as soon as he was old enough, Tyler was given the choice to stay home. He had a good reason to be an unchristian person, he believed. For as long as he could remember, his interest in girls had been practically non-existent - he just never saw the appeal of a female’s long hair or tiny body. He found himself watching boys an awful lot, though. Himself and his dad spent a lot of time together, usually fishing or fixing cars and by the time he was fourteen, Tyler felt ready to share his secret with his father. It did not go as well as he’d hoped.

At least, that’s what his broken arm said, along with the threat from his dad to never tell another soul his secret, or the real reason he was injured. He didn’t plan on telling anybody but even if he did it wouldn’t matter, his dad’s aggression only grew within the few months after, only it was no longer only towards Tyler, but his mother too. His dad wasn’t violent to anyone else, but eventually his mother grew tired of his temper and before long, the man was packed up and gone.

Tyler never told his mother about his secret and began to go to church every few weeks, just out of pure guilt. He hated keeping things from her when all they had was each other. However, when he was twenty-three and was living in his own apartment, his mother met another woman called Joanna who had two sons, Noah and Justin, and a husband, Peter. He stopped going to church as much again. That was, until one day that he was asked to help out and he caught sight of a younger male.

He later discovered that the boy was Joanna’s youngest son, Justin. After a few weeks of more visits to the church, the two mothers had seemingly worked up a plan for their sons. Justin needed a job during the summer, and Tyler was really quite terrible at keeping his house clean. The arrangement was made for the teenager to go to Tyler’s house every Saturday at eleven in the morning to clean his house. Tyler would take the kid to the Saturday service at seven and wait around so that he could take him back home when it was over. The plan worked well and the boys became close over the few months that it took place. However, there was a problem; Tyler’s attraction towards the younger male only grew. He’d find excuses to go to church on Sunday mornings with his mother - ‘I’ll help you put the stage up. Do you need a ride? I made too many cookies for Justin last night, I’ll bring them to tomorrows service. What do you mean? I always bake cookies!’- The excuses worked well, and she didn’t suspect it too much, and it worked perfectly, he got to speak to the boy more and sometimes the (by then) eighteen year old even came to his house on Sundays as well as Saturdays.

When they heard about the virus, the two boys were together. Justin had cried and Tyler had pulled him into a hug, whispering soothing words into his ear. He didn’t know how it happened, but a soothing hand running over the boy’s back turned into a more intimate embrace. Tyler had kissed the teenager’s damp cheek and the tears on his eyelashes, his tight throat and finally his lips.

It was the first time Justin had ever missed church and the fist time Tyler stopped being scared of his secret.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Tyler and his mother evacuated their small town and fled to the city, along with the Whyatt family and a two girls they picked up on the way. He’s still yet to tell his mother his secret, or about the night he spent with Justin. They’d kissed since, but they’d never done anything more, simply because they both knew that it was wrong - in Justin’s case, because it was a sin, and Tyler’s case because he was lying to his mother.

He now lives in a run down hotel, having a room to himself like most people there, treating it as a bedroom. He visits Justin ever night without fail, knowing that the younger boy also had a room to himself. Sometimes thay’d kiss until they were too tired to stay awake any longer, and sometimes they would just talk until Tyler left.

Justin’s faceclaim is LUKE HEMMINGS and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

Being born into a Christian family, Justin was always a polite, charming boy. He’d never break the rules, never talk back or ask questions and never miss church on a Saturday night or Sunday morning - even if the Saturdays were optional for under eighteens only - he liked to please his family. Every Sunday, he would wake up at eight o’clock to be showered, dressed and ready for church at ten, where he’d sit at the second to front row with his parents and older brother by two years, Noah. To his right, would be his mother and next along would be her best friend, Andria. The two had met at church many years ago, and every few weeks Andria’s son, Tyler, would be sat at the woman’s side, but not every week, Justin had noted. Tyler had dyed hair -something different every time Justin saw him- and piercings. He was nothing like any of the other boys Justin saw in church.

It wasn’t for a few months until he actually spoke to the lady’s son, whom he discovered was twenty-four and wasn’t really very religions - which unsettled Justin slightly, before he discovered that the man still respected the church and the people within it, and just liked to help out sometimes. The two male’s mothers were bickering about Justin’s lack of a job (which he thought was silly, because he was just seventeen, but slovenliness was a deadly sin, he’s reminded himself) and how terrible Tyler was at keeping his apartment tidy. The two mothers had given each other a… strange and almost worrying look, and suddenly, before either male got a say in the matter, it was decided that every Saturday morning at eleven o’clock, Justin would go to the twenty-four year old’s house, tidy and clean where it was needed and at the end of the night, he’d be given money for his work (from his mother, not Tyler, which he didn’t understand but supposed it was for his effort) but not before Tyler had dropped him off at church for the under eighteens surface and took him back home again at the end. The plan worked well; Justin’s mother had time to bake cookies for the morning service on the following Sunday because she didn’t have to take him to church, his dad could work longer and bring more money home for the same reason, his brother wouldn’t have to huff when he was asked to take Justin to church, and… Well, himself and Tyler grew closer and closer when each Saturday came.

It was after around three months when Justin knew that he couldn’t just deny what he felt for Tyler. He’d go to the man’s home, clean for an hour or so, before sitting on the couch with him and watching TV. They’d talk and laugh and shove each other until seven, when they had half an hour to get to the youth service, where Tyler would offer to help out so he could stay until the end when he’d take Justin back home again, ruffling his hair before the teenager left the car.  On Justin’s eighteenth birthday, the two of them even sat and drank beer - BEER. Not that either of them would be bragging about that, in fear of what their parents would have to say about it. However, is was pretty impossible to hide the lip ring that Tyler payed for Justin to get that same day. Fortunately though, Justin’s mother just seemed happy that it wasn’t a tattoo.

When they heard about the virus, the two boys were together. Justin had cried and Tyler had pulled him into a hug, whispering soothing words into his ear. He didn’t know how it happened, but a soothing hand running over his back turned into a more intimate embrace. Tyler had kissed his damp cheek and the tears on his eyelashes, his tight throat and finally his quivering lower lip.

It was the first time Justin had ever missed church.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Justin and his family evacuated their small town, picking up a few people on their way, and fled to the New Jersey when they heard of the base, along with the Parker family and a few people they found stranded on the way. The night he spent with Tyler was nothing more than kisses and wondering but innocent hands, and the two have them have still not gone an further, however Justin is still adamant that his family never find out. The many more kisses since the night must be kept a secret.

He now lives in a run down hotel, still prays every night, right after Tyler has finished his nightly visit to the boy’s room. Praying is his way of begging for forgiveness, an attempt to cleanse himself.

Ella’s faceclaim is SELENA GOMEZ and she is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

At the age of eight, Ella had already been switched and moved from several different households, with several different families. Anything about her birth mother is unknown, except for the fact that she’d abandoned the girl on the step of Louisville’s main orphanage when she was just three weeks of age. Eight years of rejection made the young girl spiteful out of jealousy towards the other children who seemed to be able to get adopted by a loving family almost instantly.

It was an extremely difficult task for her to try and form friendships, but those that were made, always seemed to be forgotten once they were packed and moved from the orphanage. Of course, Ella didn’t fully understand why she wasn’t good enough for the searching families who visited often, though it never stopped her bubbly act when in the presence of them. Though by the age of fifteen, Ella’s days living in the orphanage came to their last when Mark Ford came to visit. Mark, the local’s most successful lawyer, and his partner, decided that they were finally ready to create a family. Once meeting Ella, he knew instantly that she would be a handful, but he found the mischievous and daring girl almost charming.

After the paper’s were signed, she finally got to move in with Mark- but when she arrived, she instantly picked up on what he’d forgotten to mention. Ella was not homophobic, she was too mature for that, but once learning that Mark was in fact engaged to his partner, Jonathan, her excitement about leaving quickly ended. She’d waited her whole life for the perfect family - not the ‘new normal’. However, she knew that going back would leave her with more years of waiting. She warmed up to both men considerably, but never quite found the parental connection she’s dreamed of.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

Ella was at cheer practice when things took a turn for the worst. Her co-captain unexpectedly got attacked by a random classmate, and in the distance, others were also getting violently bitten. The team panicked, making a run for the safest place that they could find. Luckily for Ella, she had her phone with her at the time. She dialed Mark’s number, hoping that he and her father were still safe and alive. Unfortunately, that wasn’t the case.

Mark grabbed anything that could constitute a weapon and made a lucky escape from his house, and found Ella hiding behind one of the cars lying in the street. Jonathan was found walking slowly in the street, eyes dead and skin torn, like most of the citizens who the two passed. There was nothing that could save him now. Ella and Mark hijacked a car and fled Ohio, and after hours of constant travelling passed, they came across the safety camp.

Chace’s faceclaim is MIKEY WAY and he is AVAILABLE

BEFORE THE DISASTER »

The thing about Chace Smyth was that everybody knew him without actually knowing anything about him. During his high school years, you could bring the boy’s neighbor into a conversation, and nine times out of ten, you’d get a response somewhere along the lines of ‘oh, the guy next door to Chace Smyth?’. Long story short, he was mostly known because just wasn’t good at choosing the right companions; too gullible and too lenient. He got drunk, hooked up, let meaningless flings break his heart. Which is why, after years of stumbling into his bother, Alec’s car, and then into his bed (because with his luck, the chances of him choking on his own vomit were extremely high, and he needed somebody to pour his heart out to), he grew into the habit of relying on the older man.

Chace eventually finished school, met a girl that also wanted to drop college when he decided it wasn’t for him and they found a home together when he was twenty-one and she twenty-two. Her name was Iris. She was sweet, funny, charming - all the essentials and more. They moved to New York - he wanted to make music, she wanted to be a dancer. They worked. He still called his brother every day, met with him on Saturdays, and thanked him every chance he got for letting Chace have his old car.

When they discovered that Chace couldn’t have children, the stress had caused arguments. He even moved away for a few weeks, back with his brother in Morris, New Jersey. But then she called, and he came home to a thousand apologies and, oddly enough, a puppy - ‘we can still have a family, this doesn’t define us’. She was right, and from then on he, Iris and Beano were in for a smooth ride. That was, until he came home from a day at the studio with the dog (because his job was perfect, and he was allowed to bring him along) to his dead girlfriend.

AFTER THE DISASTER »

New York saw the breakout first-hand before New Jersey even heard of it, so when he returned to his brother, he was lucky that Alec could read him so well and happily gave both Chace and Beano a home in his apartment. Apparently he was looking for a roommate anyway. He was also lucky that his brother worked the coffee run for Dr. Death’s radio station and got the word out fast enough to get the Town under lock-down. His family were all safe, not having left the area, and he volunteered to become a runner at the first chance he got, closely followed by his brother. He even got to keep the dog. He gets through the loss of his girlfriend by bottleing it up and pretending to be fine.
