((THIS IS MY ATTEMPT TO RE-INTRODUCE A "STORY CHARACTER"))

[b]Seth Mason *[/b]
[hider=Seth Mason] [center][u][b]**STORY CHARACTER**[/b][/u][/center]

[b]Name: [/b]Seth Mason
[b]Age:[/b]19
[b]Sex:[/b] Male

[b]Personality:[/b] Seth is an all around good guy. He is a very helpful, and very positive person. Seth is the type of guy to go out of his way to save someone, no matter how bad the circumstance. Of course, this is very dangerous for him. Though he is not the leader of his group, Seth is a natural born leader. He was always winning things like class president during his high school years, and even planned to go into politics.

[b]Physical Description:[/b] Seth stands at 5'9". He has short, dark brown hair, that is slicked to the side, and he has the sides of his head shaved. His outfit consists of a red t-shirt, that is a very slim fit, and he has bandages on his arms, from an injury at the beginning of the outbreak. He wears a pair of black, slim jeans, and running shoes. Seth has pale, white skin, and is in pretty good shape.

[b]Weapons/Equipment:[/b] Seth carries an M1911 Handgun, with about 45 rounds on him. He also has an aluminum baseball bat on him for close combat. He carries a hand-radio, to keep in touch with his group.

[b]History:[/b] Seth was pretty much the definition of a popular high school kid. He played baseball, ran for class president, and had a ton of friends. His senior year, he was voted most likely to succeed, and went on to make an attempt at real-world politics. He didn't get too far however, because he was trapped in Pittsburgh when his flight was cancelled due to this outbreak. Seth had a pretty decent amount of combat abilities, from playing baseball, but also from going to the shooting range every now and again. Seth, after he graduated, moved to New-York City. While he was in New York, he was to fly to Florida, but his flight had to tough down in Pittsburgh soon after they took flight. No flights were to leave afterward.

Life after the outbreak:[/b]Seth was stranded in the Steel City of Pittsburgh Pennsylvania after he had his flight to Florida cancelled. He was not a happy person. He had to go stay in some hotel he didn't want to stay in, and called every day for weeks to try and get a hold of some way to florida. Soon after the outbreak, he was trapped in his hotel. He had his own gun on him, that he kept for self defense, and used his fighting abilities to escape the hotel. During the total chaos of the first few days, Seth saw a lot. He was in the quarantine camps, which he saw overrun and escaped on his own, and he kept his head low after that. 

About 12 days into the outbreak, Seth was all out of ways to turn. Pretty much everyone and everything had died by that point. He was running from a horde of infected, when he was hit by a car of some rogue survivor who was killing for supplies. The man ran his car into Seth, who smashed into the windshield, cutting up his arms, which he now covers with band-aids. When Seth was at gun point on the ground, he was saved by a man who goes only by Nick. We don't know anything about Nick yet, but he saved Seth and took him into his group. Seth easily became a high-ranked person in their group, and 33 days later, he went out with a group of people on an expedition for supplies in their base. Out with 7 other people, they got separated by a horde after a car alarm alerted the infected to them. 3 of them died in the initial mauling, and the other 3 went in the opposite direction that Seth went. Seth cooped himself up inside of a Grocery store, where he is now, on Day 35. The other members of his group probably told Nick that Seth died in this attack, and now he is believed deceased by his entire group back at their base. But he is alive and well, and could soon meet our survivor group. [/hider]

------------------------------


Seth Mason had been in a Grocery store called "CHRIS' FINE FOODS" for the past few weeks, after his group went out on an expedition from their base. Seth was the only survivor of his half of the group, and has been unable to make radio contact with the group he was with before. When gunshots fired off in the streets, Seth had to take a look out the door. First, he saw one person, split from his friends, running across the rooftops of cars. This guy had to be some sort of crazy, Seth thought at first, until he realized that this car jumper was going back for someone else. [b]Someone in a leather jacket.[/b] It was vague looking from behind makeshift barricades in a grocery store, but it was clear that they had both survived the horde temporarily, and ended up on the rooftop of a [b]SWAT TRUCK[/b] in the middle of the 4-way, busy-before-the-apocalypse intersection.

Seth knew that he should go out and help these two, but he had no way to get to them, especially now that they were surrounded completely. His first idea was to get onto the rooftop. Yeah that's a good idea. Go to the roof, and get a better view of the two people about to die. Seth went to the back of the store, where he knew he could get to the roof, and climbed the ladder, and kicked the hatch open, onto the roof of [b]CHRIS' FINE FOODS[/b] Seth, carrying his [b]Aluminum Baseball Bat[/b] and his [b]glock[/b], ran to the front of the roof, hiding behind the sign, and watching out into the street. The Walkers were everywhere. He couldn't see the car-hopper's friends anywhere. ([b]Kyle and Sam[/b]) Seth could see the two on the roof of the truck, and he tried to call to them [b]"Hey! Hey! Up here!"[/b] But there was no use trying. He pulled out his [b]hand-held radio[/b] from his back pocket. [b]"Hello, hello. Does anybody near have a radio? Anyone? Hello? This is Seth Mason. If either of you on the truck can hear me, head toward CHRIS' FINE FOODS."[/b] Seth says into his radio, almost positive that nobody had heard it.

Seth puts a hand on his head, looking to the streets below him, a few staggering walkers coming toward the front doors of the grocery store. They wouldn't be too much of a problem. There are many shelves blocking the front doors from opening. Too much for a few walkers to push away. Once more, he pulls out the radio from his pocket. [b]"Again, this is Seth Mason. If anyone hears this, please respond. I am in the Grocery Store CHRIS' FINE FOODS."[/b]
