Unknown model, nearest credit source is 'Anna Gusarova', photographer (photoshopped to change hair and eye color)
Age: 20 (16 when it all ended) (looks like a teenager)
Gender: female
Appearance: Katherine is fairly tall and lanky, standing at about 6 feet tall, with wiry and lithe limbs, and a long heck and body. She has long fiery red hair that she usually lets loose and blow around, and also often combs out her hair. Her skin is very pale and freckles/ sunburns very easily, and her naturally pink lips are thin, but substantial enough to be attractive.
Her red hair and her eyes are the most distinctive about her, especially her eyes. Katherine has piercing, exotic, mesmerising heterochromic eyes, which oftentimes seems to look right through a person. One is green, and one is blue, and they are both rimmed by black rings which only emphasis the color, both in and of itself, and between the color contrast of the odd-eyed girl.
For fashion and clothing, Kat dresses very much like the Quintessential Jedi. She typically wears green, black, or gray tops, and blue jeans, as well as a military Molle belt with random scavenged pouches on it, and a second belt as a sort of Sam Browne belt style of bandoleer. Over this, she often wears a very very large patchwork-pockets long duster coat, with a large hood and large sleeves.
For footwear, she prefers hard-wearing, slop-kicking, steel toe work boots, altho she would not turn down more stylistic knee-high or thigh-high boots, if they were also comfortable and durable enough.
Occupation (studies and job before the outbreak):
- Student, 'Jedi Padawan'
Hometown (city, state, country):
- Salem, Oregon
Relationships (relatives, friends,...):
- Deckard and David Dean (leaders) (unknown)
- (The Dean Harem) ; Fae Babcock (general mechanic), May Song Dent (weaver, seamstress), Elvina Giordano (Goth, amateur chef), Kassandra Shepard (electrician/ electronics) (all unknown, presumed dead)
- Virgil Rutherford (blacksmith) (dead)
- Victor Fitzgerald (virgil's apprentice, also, gay/Adrian) (unknown)
- Jim Gordon (as a cop, he catches alot of good-natured batman jokes from fellow officers) (unknown)
- Madison Gordon (mother) (Madison is a wiccan hippie and acupuncturist/accupressurist. Allegedly, she comes from a very long line of nordic witches, dating back to about the Renaissance era.) (dead)
- Allan and Alex Gordon (twin older brothers) (unknown)
- Adrian Wood (carpenter, specialized in Japanese woodworking from Saito Kaho) (gay/Victor) (undead)
- Anita Bowman (Kat's 'jedi master' and mentor/ tutor, former school teacher) (dead)
- Others; Rafael Goodman (knight), Simon Sandoval (padawan to Raf), Angela Harmon (knight), Evan Gardner (knight), Nora Gill (padawan to angela), Eli Baldwin (knight), Martin Blair (the master of their local temple) (all unknown), Violet Black (knight, Goth, knows Elvina)
Weapons (currently in possession):
- a hammer with a nasty looking spike on one side of the back end. The handle is about 12 to 18 inches long. She yanked it out of a shambler somewhere around (wherever). She calls it Malice (sounds like Malleus, latin for hammer).
Items (clothing, backpacks, first-aid kits, etc...):
- Molle web belt / bandolier, with random pouches (improvised first aid kit, lighters, metal cup, hygiene kit, whetstone)
- oversized brown pockets long coat, with large hood
- 2 large water bottles
- Backpack containing the 3 Tomes of the Jedi Order (a set of three large thick books, containing the core beliefs, structure, and methods of the Jedi Order. One is blue, one is green, and one is brown. All have the appearance of being very Quran-like and are made from leather-covered boards, with vaguely arabic inlay gold leafing and scrollwork. The covers and spine are held together with nice-looking classical style metal door hinges and clasps, with metal beveled corner pieces. There are large 2-inch silver Jedi Order Symbol Coins in the center of the cover, bonded to the book via a black ring of epoxy. The pages within are sepia'ed and grayed bristol paper with a readily readable gothic font, which has been painted with linseed oil and allowed to dry, preserving the imprinted information even more.)
- a boy scout manual, kept in a larger plastic bag
- Binoculars
Mode of transportation:
- the boots are made for walking.
List 3 or more good personality traits:
- a streak of heroism (always tries to do the right thing, and always tries to help whoever apparently needs it.)
- persuasively decisive and insightful
- creative thinker
- strives to be the best possible version of herself
List 3 or more bad personality traits:
- naive
- A mean temper. What do you get when you mix Nordic and Irish and shake it up ? Something to stay away from for a while.
- immature at times
List 3 strengths:
- Agile
- tall and wiry. She has height and reach on her side.
- Stealthy
- Good with Swords
- Well Educated-languages; Kat speaks english, irish-gaelic, and some Basque/ Japanese
List 3 flaws:
- Lightweight. Kat may be tall, but she's a lanky one, therefore, no real mass, or curves, to her .... yet.
- Hates guns. She thinks of guns as loud and crude and obnoxious things. So Uncivilized.
- Night Terrors / PTSD. Because seeing your friends and family being eaten alive would mess any girl up, in all the horribly wrong ways.
- Squeamish. She really doesn't like gore and bad smells, and tends to vomit rather easily.
- a streak of heroism (always tries to do the right thing and thinks bad of those who don't)
Describe your character's life before the Apocalypse:
- grew up in Salem Oregon, in a sort of polyamorous commune/ survivalist compound, called Dean Manor. While it wasn't completely dysfunctional, as most communes are apt to be (likely prevented by the tinge or two of conservatism and discipline brought by the more 'survivalist' members) it was definitely a 'Not Normal' place beyond the first few glances.
It was a strange sort of ambient alternate-america place where classic hippie free-love and general well-met rampancy was splattered about over a pizza of back-to-the-land/ return to the old ways/ survivalist / mildly militia-ist tendencies.
Dean Manor was a small chunk of neighborhood just on the outskirts of Salem Oregon, close enough to be in the suburbs, but not yet sub-rural. It was bought up by the Dean brothers, dave and deckard, and they then put out the call to those of like mind to move into their community. Any houses which weren't up to spec, were free-handedly demolished and scavenged, and the plots left to go wild or have crops, yurts, and tepees put onto them.
The authorities didn't mind the little commune, as it was an economic boon for the area; blacksmithing, woodworking, weaving and textiles and clothes, volunteer cooking at the shelters, and the like. (It didn't hurt that kats father, Jim Gordon, had good police connections, and kept most of the authorities out of Manor business.)
In this sort of environment, Katherine was homeschooled with a more platonist trivium-quadrivium education, and allowed to grow and develop on her own terms. Kat had minimal public school testing, and at every annual testing prerequisite, she proved quite adept.
Much to her mother's chagrin, Kat did not remain a witch, and laid aside pagan Wicca for space-new-age and buddhism, and then Jedi-ism. Fortunately, there was one other in the manor, who was into Jedi-ism, Anita Bowman. Anita agreed, and so after speaking with some others in their little jedi group, the two took on a mentor-apprentice relationship.
As was established tradition in Jedi-ism, they learned many things together; History Behind the history, civics, ethics, styles of politics and governments, reviews of critical thinking and reasoning skills, and of course, starting in on martial arts (capoeira) and sword/stick practice (H.E.M.A., Canne du Comba't)
