[color=#d9b972]NAME:[/color] Jessica "Jess" Langbroek

[color=#d9b972]AGE:[/color] Seventeen

[color=#d9b972]WEAPON(S):[/color] Tire iron, pocket knife

[color=#d9b972]SKILLS:[/color] In the past, Jess' habit of [i]blending into the background[/i] might've been seen as a negative trait, but in the apocalypse, it has been quite the boon, helping her [i]remain unseen while sneaking or hiding[/i]. Her five foot stature allows Jess to [i]crawl through openings that others would be unable to[/i], and despite her distaste for physical exercise in school, she has become rather experienced in [i]swinging blunt weapons[/i] not unlike a batter in baseball or softball.

[color=#d9b972]BIOGRAPHY:[/color] When compared to the jocks, cheerleaders and other popular kids of South Side High, Jess' past is rather bog standard. Both of her parents, an on-call firefighter and a late night bartender, were Fort Wayne natives, trapping Jess in the "shithole of a city" she believed Fort Wayne to be. With their jobs often keeping them away from home, Jess grew into a socially awkward kid that ate plenty of cheap TV dinners and typically fell asleep to infomercials on the couch. In turn, Jess quickly found herself uninterested in making friends or trying her best in school, which, in an cruel twist of fate, likely saved her life when the infection found its way into her high school. None of her classmates cared if she lived or died; only the teacher she managed to escape with did.

Now, eighteen months into the end of the world, Jess is a proud member of Faith, and although she doesn't particularly care for their religious attitudes, she isn't about to start complaining about having some sort safety from the living dead despite her newfound desire to find her parents and reconnect as a family. She knows that they're probably dead or one of the walking dead in the city, but the hope that they might still be alive out there keeps Jess going from day-to-day.[/hider]
