Age: 23
Race: Caucasian
Gender: Male
Height: 1.78 m (5.84 ft)
Appearance: hair is almost shoulder-length, wavy and black, mostly kept in a samurai-style knot; black beard, short length; brown eyes with faded dark rings around the eyes.
Clothing: black leather boots, partially covered by blue jeans; brown leather belt, green shirt with a red T-shirt under it. Brown leather trench-coat.
Alignment: Neutral-Good
Occupation: Medic
Where they are from: Romania
Relationships: Engaged to someone from Romania
Weapons: Professional recurve bow with sights, a katana which he rarely uses, two tantos (short swords with single edge) and a straight bladed dagger
Items:
Personality: He's an optimist, constantly trying to find the silver lining of the situation he's in, and maybe even find something funny to say about. Underneath that positive and joking nature lies a man whose ambitions can sometimes be surpassed by his ego. Although he mostly keeps to himself and looks out for himself, he's not one for leaving a fellow human being in need of assistance unless the risk is too high.
Special Skills and Strengths: Good reflexes, proficient in close combat (armed and hand-to-hand), having received formal training in that area. His skills are further complimented by his knowledge of anatomy. He mixes and matches various styles to suit his needs. Most notably, he uses a more direct substyle of Aikido, adding Wushu and Judo to the mix. Average skill with the bow, having used the weapon since the apocalypse started, he has gotten used to reloading fast, but it takes a bit of time to take proper aim. The sights on the bow help, but he can shoot quickly and accurately from less than 50 meters away. Knowledge on medicinal herbs and what can be made from them. He had an injury at his right thumb, during his teen years, and can now be dislocated without much pain, something he used to get out of handcuffs and other restraints.
Weaknesses and Flaws: Lazy, tends to goof around, unable to use a firearm properly, huge ego, slightly depressed due to the loss of someone very close to him and the isolation from his home. He mostly tried to keep his emotions under control, and manages that, but there are times when he can't do it anymore and begins lashing out.
Prior to the Apocalypse: Originally he was from a small town near Romania's capital, Bucharest. Upon finishing high-school he set out to accomplish his dream of becoming a doctor, and thus enrolled in the University of Medicine and Pharmacy at the age of 18. The years went by, he made friends along the way, fell in love, lost people close to him. In the fourth year of med school, he was approached by one of his professors regarding a project with the UC Davis School of Medicine in Sacramento. The project was simple, a number of countries from Eastern Europe would send a student to the US for about a year. He accepted without hesitation . Leaving home was hard for him, and most days he found himself wanting nothing more than to pack all his things and go back. When there were only a few days left the Apocalypse came, and he was stuck, alone in a foreign land.
Post Apocalypse: When the whole outbreak started, he left the dorm in a hurry. Fortunately he went on a camping trip a while back, and had a few basic supplies. Sleeping bag, fire starter, two survival bracelets (a rope bracelet that can be unwound to become 14’ string) and some normal rope. He took those along with a few essential books, some supplies, a few spare clothes the katana he got for his birthday and headed out. As luck would have it, he found a sporting and hunting goods store that had its windows broken, and no one inside. From inside he took the only weapons he could use: a bow, some arrows, and a knife. Ever since then he’s been thinking of ways to get back home, and kept moving away from big cities.
He spent the last few months with Remy in various groups, not really getting attached to anyone during that time, but trying to be as useful as possible.
