Ettie Aaron was born on the 15th of August, 1988 to teenage parents Sean and Marianne Martin. Her mother died in childbirth, leaving the small blonde, blue eyed baby girl to be raised alone by her father. For two years, he tried his best to raise her, but when he proved to have an exceedingly difficult time with her, he gave custody to his twin brother Presley. Presley understood what his brother was going through and took the little girl in, raising her as his own. Ettie was raised on a small patch of farm land in Tennessee. She was home schooled for most of her life, that was, whenever her father or grandmother could get her in the house for learning. No, most of the time she remained outside with the many animals they had on their farm. Here she became very close to every animal, giving them all names. She’d get very upset when one of them passed. She was a very sweet girl who cared for almost everyone and everything. She didn’t want to hurt anyone. She felt no urge to do so. She went to a public high school in grade eight, which was her first time going to school in general. She got along well with her peers, most likely because she was a shy but very friendly girl once you knew her. After high school, she went to school to become a veterinarian. On top of that, she got a medical degree as well so she would be able to help people if needed. She always had pride in the fact that she was there and ready to help if someone needed her.

When the outbreak first started, Ettie had been working at her father’s bar. She was taking the trash out when she heard a scream from inside, recognizing the voice immediately as her father’s. She ran back inside only to see one of them biting down on his arm. All she could think of at that moment in time was that nothing had prepared her for this. Nothing at all. She wanted to help her father so badly, but he’d thrown her a gun he kept under the desk and told her to run. Terrified, she ran upstairs to the attic and locked the door behind her, her finger on the trigger of the shotgun and all times. She was so scared that one of those things she saw would burst through the door and try to eat her too. She eventually fell asleep, clearly exhausted. She woke again not long later, hearing her birth father, Sean’s voice frantically calling for her. She only then emerged from her hiding place and found him, hugging him tightly as she tried to hide her eyes from what she assumed were the remains of the man who’d raised her over the bar. After that, Sean loaded up Ettie’s car and they set off to some town Ettie had never even heard of. She argued with him most of the way, fearing the worst. She worried this random town he’d heard of would already be overrun, but Sean wouldn’t hear it and drove them there. They lived like that for a while, on the road, scavenging and hunting for food while defending themselves against the infected. When they got to Cheyenne, they were welcomed into the Country Club. Because of her medical degree, Ettie fit right in as a healer.

Ettie used to be a sweet and innocent little farm girl who couldn’t hurt a soul. Now, she’s changed drastically to survive in this new world. She’s learned to fight and hunt, though hunting she already knew a lot of since it was something her father and uncle raised her to be able to do. She also got good at scavenging for goods. She would take everything, figuring a lot of stuff was better than no stuff at all. Since she had a medical degree, she’d also take any medicines she found there. She figured that you never knew when you may need some of it. She still has that urge to make friends, but she worries that she’ll lose people like she lost her father so is hesitant to do so. One thing she hasn’t told anyone yet is that she’s been having reoccurring nightmares about her father’s death. She worries that if she tells people about the nightmares of those she loves dying, those who are still alive will actually pass.
