After listening to Emma's explanation of herself it did confuse Tim for a second but figured that people would still be a little guarded over some of the stuff about themselves. "No biggie" Tim thought. After a few moments of silence and no body to respond to that blurb Tim thought it would be best to speak up a little maybe ease the people around him. "Well first off the names Timothy Volk as I have already said. I am from South Dakota born and raised for the most part. I was traveling here with a few buds until we got attacked by some monsters outside of Duluth, Minnesota. We all split and ran from there and are all headed the same way to Portland, Maine where I know somebody who has a few decent size boats out that way where we would hitch a ride and go towards the equator and stay on a uninhabited island out that way. Ride out the shit there you know? No people and less chance of monsters. Anyway I am pretty decent with a sword and knife, talented in archery and one hell of a marksman with a firearm since I was a kid, you know hunting, skinning, living off the land, something you kind of live out in the north part of the Midwest. As for monsters been able to bring them down but I hate trying to fight them too much, but its the raiders and other people that are my bigger problem. Monsters usually don't have a pack mentality unless they mutated from an animal that already had that trait. But I have been stuck in Chicago here for the past couple of months down by the docks over by Inland Steel Opas. Knew a buddy down there that had a machine shop and also did blacksmithing on the side."

Tim took a long breath and choose his next words carefully "I have a project going on over that way that took more of my time than anything else kind of why I ran out of food and went out scavenging for more. Lastly thank you guys for not putting two rounds or a knife in me when I met ya. Good to know there are a few friendly people out this way."
