Describe your character's life before the Apocalypse:
- Anthony was a very antisocial kid throughout his childhood growing up in Chicago on the poorer side of town he was exposed to plenty of crime in his youth and became friends with a juvenile delinquent named Ricky Jameson. Although he was friends with a criminal he tended to stay out of his friends unlawful behaviors for most of hi life and went on to get his masters degree in chemistry. However, when Anthony was let go from his job due to downsizing, Anthony's life began to fall apart and he turned to his friend Ricky for help when he couldn't find any legitimate job. Rick was able to get Anthony multiple unlawful jobs including carjacking and drug trafficking before finally Anthony found that his degree in chemistry would prove to be most profitable for him making him a very talented drug cook and makeshift explosives engineer.
What happened to your character on Outbreak Day?:
- On the day of the outbreak, Anthony was being introduced by Ricky to a drug dealer who was interested in Anthony's talents and was willing to pay handsomely for them, however a person overdosed nearby and came back as a walker killing the potential customer. Anthony and Ricky fled the scene hearing over the radio a warning about an outbreak and barricaded themselves in their apartment.
Describe your character's life after the Apocalypse:
-After surviving a few months in their apartment, Anthony and Ricky left due to lack of supplies and spent two years moving from place to place around the Midwest where they were eventually captured by a large raider group who forced them and other prisoners into a form of gladiatorial combat where Anthony was given the title carved into his right shoulder blade "ripper" due to whenever he lost his weapon in a match, he would panic and fight with his teeth and nails. Anthony and Ricky survived the fights for months while stealing whatever chemicals and materials they could for explosives and weapons for their escape. However, the day before their planned escape they were pitted in the arena against each other. When they refused to fight, Ricky was shot in the chest and Anthony was forced to watch his friend die and turn before being told to put the walker down. After that, Anthony decided he would escape, and using the chemicals he stole, he made bombs and used them to escape and kill as many people as he could before stealing a supply truck and driving away leaving him alone and paranoid trying to find a new place to fit in
