The Last of Us|Remake| [Inactive since 30/05/2013]

[silverMarie]

It has been two decades since the infection started, sending the U.S. into a total war-zone. People have turned on each other and begun killing one another for their supplies, some went to the military but found out they weren't much help. The military has placed many quarantine zones in major cities throughout the United States, this is where many misled people go to be "safe", but in reality the people who go here never come out and never heard from again. The people who are still inside are now trying to escape, but some of the people outside want to get in. Military are constantly moving through the states to capture the survivors outside the quarantine zones to bring them in and 'study' on them. Some of them even execute uncooperative survivors. Where are you?

The infection isn't airborne, but rather direct contact. If you are scratched, bitten, or get the infected blood in you, you are a goner.

Name: Cheyenne Donovan

Age: 22 Years Old

Gender: Female

Role: Survivor

Personality: Cheyanne is rather straight forward about things, she doesn't sugar-coat it for anyone, ever since the infection struck her heart has turned cold and unforgiving. Her trust in others has dropped dramatically, last time she trusted someone they tried to blow her head off "Nothing I couldn't handle." She now believes she should kill on sight unless they give her a good reason not to. But she wasn't always cold hearted, she used to be a happy teenage girl who had many friends and loved making new ones.

History: Cheyanne had a tough life growing up since she was raised in this apocalyptic atmosphere, her parents said that there was a time when the world was happy. Cheyanne wondered what earth was like before the infection, but she knew she would never know. As the years went on and the infection spread, their safe house was taken from them by the military and they were moved to a quarantine zone when she was fifteen. Cheyanne can still remember the horrors that were inside the tall steel walls, screams of pain and agony came from the underground facility at night when she tried to sleep. When she turned eighteen her parents were taken away from her. She remembers waking up from muffled yells from her father as military personnel took them from their sleeping spots and carried them away. Cheyanne could do nothing to stop them as they took her parents to who knows where. Days later she went to the archery range only to see her parents, they were bloody and deformed beyond recognition. They both had be turned into one of those things and were now being used as training dummies. From that moment on Cheyanne became cold hearted towards the uniformed staff, then soon everyone around her. She later escaped the quarantine zone and ran as far as she could until she collapsed from fatigue. Now she travels alone, traveling from state to state, constantly hiding from the military and the infected.

Name:

Emerson Hughes

Age:

19

Gender:

Female

Role:

Raider

Personality:

Emmy is arrogant, cocky, and narcissistic. She has a short temper, and her anger knows almost no bounds. Should you make her angry, be prepared to hide for quite a while, because she holds grudges and won't even think of forgiving you until you either a) get down on your knees and beg for forgiveness or b) give her something that means a lot to you. For the latter, she'll often break whatever is important soon after "forgiving" you, then blame you for giving her something defective.  As long as Emmy's around, nothing will be her fault, because she will pass the blame onto the closest human.  If there are none around to see what happened, then it never DID happen.

Not only is she arrogant, she's downright cruel.  She loves playing mind games with others and confusing them to the point that they don't even remember why they're carrying with them what they are.  At that point, Emmy will take whatever she pleases, because she'll have convinced them that they don't need whatever they have. By the time the victim's found out what has happened, it's already too late, because they're surrounded by infected without any weapons.

She thoroughly enjoys watching others in pain, especially when she's the cause of it. She won't offer to step in to help someone who's ended up injured, because she finds no reason to help someone that's gotten themselves into a situation.  She doesn't help idiots. She'd rather laugh and point at them while tossing depreciating comments their way. Should she come across someone that once was her "friend," but proved to be disloyal, she'll shoot them on-sight and leave them to die.

In addition to all these traits, Emerson is extremely smart and sneaky.  That was one of the reasons she wanted to become a raider when this whole thing started. She could slip into rooms soundlessly, steal something, and slip back out before they realized anything happened.  She's acquired many things this way, including a few first-aid kits (all for her, of course) and a pistol.

History:

Emerson grew up in a large, lavish home on the outskirts of Pittsburgh, PA.  As a child, she was often sick and would miss a decent amount of school. By third grade, she was placed into cyber school, which she absolutely detested.  Thanks to always being home, she never developed many social skills that fell into the positive aspect; rather, the negative, more cynical ones developed. As a result, when she eventually was able to go to school, which wasn't until her sophomore year of high school (due to her mother being so strict), she ended up making more enemies than friends.  She would acquire groups of friends, only to insult them to the point that they abandoned her.  She believed that they were the problem, not her, so she began to blame everything wrong that she did on her former colleagues, because they had "ruined" her. 

Her mother and father both held very well-paying jobs in the Pittsburgh area; the former was a banker and the latter an anesthesiologist.  Because of this, Emmy was often handed whatever she wanted, whenever she wanted it.  Eventually, though, this wasn't enough, and she began to steal things. It was petty things at first, like packs of gum, but eventually, it grew to much larger things, like cigarettes.  Rarely, if ever, was it discovered that she had taken them. The few times she had, though, it was just paying a fine and going along. Her parents, upon discovering her habits, installed a security camera in her room, which followed her every movement. If she left the room, an alarm sounded. If the window opened, the same. She was, in essence, confined in her own house, which she hated. She was only allowed out when in plain sight of at least two other people, so that she couldn't take off if one had to turn away for something.  This made her even more cynical, blaming those former friends for these habits.

Upon the beginning of this apocalyptic age, Emerson awoke to find the house eerily silent. There was no faint whirring from the camera as it followed her.  There was no alarm as the door opened.  There was no droning whine as the window was opened.  Upon searching the house, she found no one. Only a note that read "They are here." The paper was stained with blood, along with the floor. Realizing that her family was gone and that she was finally free, she left the house, deciding to continue her mean streak by becoming a raider.

Family: Cassandra Hughes [Assumed Dead], Jacob Hughes [Assumed Dead]

Location: Pittsburgh, PA and surrounding area.

Extra: Emmy always carries a hunting knife with her. It's fun to stab things with.





Pet(s): Thompson

Age: 2 years

Gender: Male

About: Thompson was always a little sneak. He would often maneuver his way out of his cage and go out for a morning or evening walk. When this whole apocalypse thing began, he found that he was unable to return home, and therefore, never knew what happened to his owners. He wandered for a while, eventually meeting Emmy.

Species: Common ferret
