Describe your character's life before the Apocalypse:
Abel grew up in Midland Michigan, together with his two younger siblings and parents at a farm not far from town. There he lived an ordinary life, like most kids his age, though he found interest early in making things out of nothing. This continued when he began at school, where art and science became his favorite subjects, besides sport. Abel became the popular kid at school, whether it was because of his knack of skills as a handy man, or cause of his good looks.
When Abel went to high school he joined its football team, and he also learned to drive. Life felt good at the time, but then at the age of seventeen, his father died by a heart attack. The entire family was shaken by the incident, Abel most of all, but instead of rebelling like his younger brother did, he helped out at home. After lots of heavy work, and part-time jobs, Abel decided to go to college in Detroit. Where he could get a good education, with which he possibly could provide a better life for his family in the future.
Arriving in the big city, at the college known as Wayne State University, Abel made it his priority to get good degrees, although he from time to time went partying with others his age. Like in High School, he joined the football team, and took classes within art, where he perfected his methods. Forming a circle of friends, he also got a girlfriend, and together they shared the student life.
What happened to your character on Outbreak Day?:
When the disease came to Detroit, Abel and his art class had gone to see an exhibition. Not many students had showed up that day, due to many being sick, but those who could were eager to travel. On the road out of town, their buss was halted by traffic jam. Apparently many were trying to leave the city and they had now merged on the intersection, several cars up ahead had even crashed into each other, causing more chaos than necessary.
Helicopters were circling above, and then suddenly shots were fired, causing a panic to erupt amongst the drivers. Many turned their cars in the chaos, and the bus driver did the same. In haste he took them through an alternative route, only to be encountered by mass hysteria in the streets.
People were looting, firing shots and beating each other up, the police had intervened, but it didn`t help. The students were forced to leave the bus, and they had to make their way through it all without getting themselves hurt. Surprised they found out about the dead rising up, and while they fled, their teacher, Abel`s girlfriend and others got eaten. Holed up in a building somewhere in midtown, the students rested until morning.
Describe your character's life after the Apocalypse:
The students stuck together the best they could, as they sort of didn`t have any choice. Their families were far away, and traveling there alone was too dangerous. With the city falling into mayhem, the National Guard came to save the day, and those they found alive were placed in a refugee center somewhere out of town. Abel and his friends was taken along, where they came to live for several months. When the dead became too much of a threat, the military relocated them to Great Rapids, Michigan.
However that place as well fell due to the huge amount of people they took in and the lack of supplies they stored, whatever the armed forces tried to do, they failed time and time again. With the second camp dissolved into a riot, Abel and his friends took the opportunity to escape and seek their own luck in the wide open world, heading toward the small town known as Monroe.
