- Hesitant; Anna is very hesitant when it comes to believing in what she is told and this can lead to her being very distrustful of the people around her. It takes a lot to show her that you are truly who you say you are
- nihilistic; Over the years spent alone and only running into the worst of the worst when it comes to people after being separated from what remained of her family Anna has grown to lose the sense that life has a meaning, a purpose. To her, There is no such thing anymore, You just exist to exist.

List 3 flaws:
- Night blindness; Anna has always found it hard to see once she goes from a well lit area to a darker one, Her eyes don't adjust to the light properly and it leaves her vision blurry for a while before her eyes are able to slowly focus again. This also effects her ability in going from dark to light area's, She will generally develop a headache upon going into the light.
- poor shot at range; Anna was never trained to use weapons such as pistols or rifles. She had taught herself the basics from trial and error and can hit things at closer range but is practically useless at hitting targets further than ten feet away from her.
- shut off; Years spent alone has severely hindered Anna's ability to have a normal conversation with someone, She tends to stay quiet and only talks in short sentences
Describe your character's life before the Apocalypse:
- Anna lived a very secluded childhood, She never really socialized with anyone outside of her sister and parents. Clara was really the only person who she truly felt like she could talk to. She excelled in school but kept to herself and her studies during her day to day school experience.
Anna's day to day life consisted of doing her school work and reading what few books her family had on the bookshelf and what her mother brought home from the library on the weekends. Day to day life for Anna was pretty quiet otherwise.
What happened to your character on Outbreak Day?:
- The day the world went to shit Anna and her family were out camping, Anna hated the thought of camping, The thought of what could be crawling near you at any moment. She envied her sisters ability to find enjoyment in what little there was outside her front door.
As evening fell and the family began to pack for home Anna felt a great sense of relief to be heading back to the place she felt comfortable, Felt safe. Clara helped her into the Car as she saw her father make his way to the back of the car, Anna reasoned that he was just going back to help the others load up the car; But unknown to her a small group of people, That weren't quiet people anymore were attempting to get her father. A few moments later the rest of the family piled into the car in a hurry, Unaware of what transpired Anna glanced back in confusion as they sped off, leaving all their camping supplies behind, And, What looked like a few people stumbling around like her Uncle did that one Christmas. "Whats going on?" she asked them numerous times as they drove, But wouldn't received a response until much later.
Pulling up to their house Anna saw that there were more drunk people in the yard and around the area as Clara came around and got her out of the car, On her mothers orders they ran into the house followed closely by their father who promptly slammed the door and bared it with whatever he could find. Confused and frightened Anna ran to her room and slammed the door were she stayed for the entire rest of the night, Only allowing Clara to come in after a solid three hours of laying in the dark with her lights off. Shaking.
Describe your character's life after the Apocalypse:
- After witnessing her Father fall dead at her mothers feet after being gone a full day after their food supplies had run low Anna shut down, She couldn't bear seeing her father die, Let alone die in front of her. She went mute for a full year after that, Never speaking to anyone, Even Clara, Who had always been like her best friend. As the days went by and more and more of those monsters that her mother had dubbed 'bitters' started to appear in the cities The trio took to staying away from once populated area's to avoid getting the chomp.
Two years would pass of hard struggling for the trio after that, They managed to find a small settlement of people a decent distance west of their home town near the eastern border of the state of Missouri and managed to make a home there for a spell before it ultimately met the fate of every place these days. It was just after Anna's birthday. The loss of their home effected her deeply, She had started to finally open up again just to have it dashed in a blaze of gunfire and flames.
after six months of moving from place to place the Trio were running critically low on almost every sort of supplies, As they were searching a small store for anything they could find a use for a car of bandits decided to have the same idea, Although, Unlike the trio, The bandits were armed to the teeth with assault rifles and the like. Armed with just a small pistol Anna's mother told the two girls to stay back and hide as she went to confront them, Not soon after the sound of a gunshot split the air, sending Anna darting out the window near her that had long since been destroyed by looters in the beginning of the end, She ran, Terror surging through her veins away from that place, Away from her family.
After running for what seemed like an hour Anna finally settled enough to catch her breath, she looked around the area and didn't recognize anything, Lost on an alien planet. She walked for three days after that, no food, no water, no hope, Until the morning of the third day when a seemingly nice man offered her food and shelter, Tricked her with the promise that her mom and sister were there as well. It was fake, It was all fake. Years into the apocalypse with no law enforcement to enforce the rules of the land meant that every sick fucker out there could have there fun. They locked her up. In a small storage closet of a school for days on end, only bringing her out to interrogate her for information she didn't have, Or didn't know. They would beat her.
Days blurred together after the first few. Days turned to weeks, Weeks, to months. They barely fed her and what they did feed her were meager left overs barely fit for human consumption. Anna was nearly always covered in bruises and cuts these days from the frequent 'outings' the people would take her on. One day, A woman by the name of Becky came to the closet to get her. Becky wasn't one of the usual's, She wasn't anyone. She was part of a small group that had caught word of a small girl locked away from some loud mouthed men on a run. Becky urged her to come with her and Anna, Being the person she was now, shyed away and faced away from the woman, a few moments later she felt herself being lifted into the air and over the woman's shoulder. "Put me down! There isn't a point in running anyway. Everyone is like this now anyway." she said to the woman as they ran.
That was six months ago, Anna had only spent about a month of it with Becky's group, To her, She was Alice, They never found out her real name before they met their end by the hands of another group of bandits. The group ambushed them in the night at their small camp site that they had set up near an old gas station, Anna had taken up the habit of sleeping in places that her small frame would allow her to hide in such as cabinets and closets. That night though Becky had talked her in to sleeping with her in her small tent. That would soon prove to be a mistake though as the group of bandits decided they had something that they wanted. They shook them from their slumber and transported them to a small area outside of town before binding their hands and demanding they tell them everything they know. Anna could only watch helplessly as the few friendly faces that she had seen since the end were gunned down in front of her. Once they came to her the leader stopped short of pulling the trigger at the sight of the kids cut on her eye that had just freshly scared over from her stent with the first group of unruly members of today's society, Anna bolted for the door but hearing the leader call to the man left to guard it she felt a fist meet her gut hard.
Four days passed with this new group that seemed to have a newfound hatred for the small girl from Farmington after her little stunt, It didn't help that she bit the man as he grabbed her which made an instant enemy for her. Once again she was beaten and cut this time out of hatred for her instead of for information. A week after being captured, After her third season of being tortured she managed to trick the guards into thinking she had gotten loose by hiding in a crawl space near the door, bolting through the door once they were firmly in the room and slamming it shut behind them twisting the lock that they had installed backwards with the keyhole on the inside. before the guards could let themselves out she ran, As fast as her little legs could carry her, bruises once again covered her body and a fresh cut along her arm from one of the men's blades.
Holding her arm tightly from the pain she ran into the woods in an attempt to escape the few people that had noticed her running, gunshots at her back she ran, Adrenaline and fear coursing through her veins once more as the tree's and foliage flew past her. After thirty minutes of running she let up, satisfied that the bandits hadn't followed before she stopped to look at her arm. it was bad.. The blade had gone deeper than she had thought and the blood started to make her stomach turn, After throwing up she tore her sleeve and tied it around the cut, More to hide the site of the blood than to attempt any sort of medical treatment for she had no idea where to even start.
Reaching a clearing she saw walls start to form in front of her. "Great, More of them." she muttered weakly as she attempted to start making her way from the walls. But her head was swimming from the pain, she needed help, She needed safety.
