Name/Alias: John Bernard Hardin
Species: Human
Faction: Wichita's Undertaker
Biography: A man who has defied the odds and lived a full life on the frontier. In his youth, John was born into a homesteader family, one of the first in Kansas. There isn't much John remembers, save for the number of times the natives harassed them, and in truth, doesn't like their kind. When John became of age, he joined up with the military and fought in the Southeast during the Mexican-American War. He fought tooth and nail to survive. Often noted for his careful and calculating disposition, he caught some attention by the brass and throughout his long military career, he crawled up the ranks to Sargent Major, highest non-commissioned officer ranking.

Following the victory, he got his revenge and then some on that natives as he was reassigned to regiments that protected the frontier. One man could only handle so many preemptive raids on those savages before the amount of women and children deaths got to him. Resigning at a fairly old age, he got out just before the Civil War. He tried his best to establish a quiet life, just like his father before him. He married, had a daughter, and carved out a sort of ironic life as an undertaker. In John's eyes, he was trying to do good by the dead for the all the wrong he did, even though it was never going to be enough. He knew this but did what he could to respect the dead and coincidentally, protect the living.

John's wife and daughter perished from illness early in the Weeping Winter. On the day he buried his family, he decided that he had seen and experienced enough and, barring an act of God, he'd end his life that night. Strange how the good Lord works but He gave to John a sign that he had not expected. On the last burial of the day, a child with no apparent family or friends as not one soul showed to mourn, the child awoke with blazing green eyes. A sign of a Ghoul and even though John was urged to act, he didn't. Perhaps out of giving up or maybe the good Lord telling him so, the child was not some mindless husk like the rest. The child wept, confused with her death and reawakening. John spent that night helping that child and has been helping ever since. For whatever reason, this burden was placed on John and he'd do what he could to see this until the end.

Name/Alias: Daisy Juniper Addams
Species: Ghoul
Species Lore: An undead monster that depends upon the consumption of human flesh to sustain itself. They have frightening physical traits of increased speed and strength. Their heart doesn't beat, blood doesn't flow, but they can sustain damage like normal. They also have incredible regenerative abilities but cannot regenerate on an empty stomach and must consume human flesh to recuperate. The experienced hunter, Undertakers usually, use fire and explosives to cripple the creatures, after that it is just a matter of burying them again. 

Often times, these undead beasts act wild and primitive cannibals with only the the desire to consume living flesh. The wild forms are products of evil and vile spirits possessing the bodies of the dead that were not properly respected. This is often reflected in their savage, creature-like appearances.  The best way to avoid a ghoul is to bury the dead and keep them buried. However, with the rarest of circumstances, a fierce spirit of the deceased can refuse to leave their body after their untimely demise. Usually driven by revenge, these undead are more sophisticated than their primal cousins and retain most of their former selves. 
Faction: Service to Undertaker Hardin

Biography: There isn't much that Daisy remembers from her past life. She had a very silver-spooned upbringing, living in a grand estate with servants and the like. She didn't live in Wichita as the town is noted as being unfamiliar to her. She can't remember why she ended up here but remembers that she couldn't stay home. It might have been her father that took her away but the man who took her away is a blur in her memory. Whoever that man is, Daisy hates that man even if it is her father. He killed her, or at least caused indirectly to her death. She is sure of that. 

The Undertaker has been a nice enough man to help her find that man, because she doesn't care about much other than finding that man. The Undertaker must be protected, he's trustworthy.. No. He's vulnerable, himself, much like how Daisy feels. That's why Daisy trusts him. Maybe when they both find this man, they can find rest together.

Personality: Reserved, Loyal, Uncaring
Skills/Abilities: Increased Speed, Strength, Regenerative capabilities. Must feed on flesh to regenerate. Doesn't need sustenance from anything else. Feels little pain and only some emotion occasionally.
