Name: Adelaide Beaumont

Age: 18

Gender: Female

Nomadic or sedentary: She tends to makes temporary settlements, leaving when considered unsafe to inhabit.

Weapons: A hunting rifle, a crossbow and quiver of arrows, and a dagger.

Skills: Adelaide has very good aim when it comes to a gun or bow but can resort to hand-to-hand combat if needed so. She is good at climbing trees and can often find ways to climb buildings. Her stamina is very good and she can run for long periods of time at a higher than average speed but her speed isn't her best attribute. She is able to swim as well but she's not amazing. She can read and write decently. Other than that, she has basic knowledge with medicine but usually ends up using first aid kits. 

Any unusual traits? Does it show physically?: She has quite an unusual amount of strength for a woman, maybe a tad more than the average man. However, it does not seem to show physically.

Appearance: Adelaide is a tall girl at around 5'7", with long, wavy dark-brown hair that she usually pulls back into a messy ponytail. She has a fit body that's getting to be a little too thin with pale skin. She has eyes to match her dark hair.  She tends to wear a black leather jacket that she's fond of.

Brief Personality: Adelaide's got a quick tongue with a sarcastic reply to everything. Although a kind and good-hearted girl, she's very hot-tempered and also very stubborn. It's hard to change her mind once she's set on something. Her mind works quickly and she's not someone to plan out things. Adelaide prefers to make up things as she goes. Nonetheless she is intelligent even though her impulsive reaction doesn't always serve her well. She is very brave and will do just about anything if someone she cares about is in danger. She is also very easily irritated by other people.

Background: When Adelaide's mother was pregnant with her, she and her husband knew they'd never get to give her the life they had wanted for her. However, the most they could do was give her a chance. They went to risky measures to get them into a secret safe zone down South. Very few people were admitted into that zone and both parents were refused. She was taken in by a pregnant woman who raised her in a gated community. One day Adelaide had been accused of stealing food and instead of killing her they shunned her out on her own when she was 13 years old. It was basically a death sentence to send a young kid out on her own. She has been forced to take care of herself while living nomadically and by some miracle, she's still alive. She currently is heading towards the ruins of New York City in hopes of finding somewhere to pick up some supplies.

Alone or with someone?: She is alone.

Other: She often carries music CDs and a small, old CD player

Name: Xander Phillips

Gender: Male

Nomadic or sedentary: Nomadic

Skills:
 
- Very good shot with two small handguns
- Decent climber 
- Knows french
- Very knowledgable about survival tactics and poison
- Decent cook
- Good at staying calm in situations

Any unusual traits? Does it show physically?: His eyes are vividly blue to the point of almost glowing and the pupils have a cat-like shape. He's more agile than most and has cat-like reflexes. His balance is quite remarkable as well. 

Brief Personality: Xander at first will come off as quite the charmer with quick replies and charismatic personality. He's very mysterious about his past and it's very hard to peel back the layers to see the good in him. However, he's not very merciful or caring towards others. He treats randoms like objects and has little emotion for them. He's nonchalant about what happens to most people he does not feel close to and is very quick to move on. There is no limit with him; he is not afraid to cross lines and treat people inhumanely if it means getting what he wants. However, he reserves care and devotion to the alpha wolf, doing whatever she says and making sure she's happy. 
 
Background: Xander wasn't always as heartless as he is now. He was raised by two hard-working parents along with his twin brother Drake and younger sister Tia. Their parents had worked at the university before everything had gone to hell. When the university shut down, the family and a small group of students remained and used it as a sanctuary from the crumbling world around them. However, the Wolves eventually found the University and attacked. While Drake and Tia were forced to listen to their parents die, Xander had been taken away from the situation and told his family had been killed by bandits. The Wolves managed to deceive him and make him think that they had nothing to do with the deaths. He thought his siblings were dead just as they thought the same of him. 

Xander had no one else but the Wolves for years. Though he had some controversial opinions already, he began to fall in step with their culture and slowly become less humane the more time he spent with them. He started to develop care for the woman who ran the group even though she was cruel and unmerciful. Xander would do anything she wanted. She eventually handpicked him to be one of her beta wolves.

Alone or with someone?: The Wolves
