Drawing on their former careers, they've taken it upon themselves to organize yearly neighborhood cookouts in the summer to get to know and give something to the town's citizens, something Mr. Valero has kept up even after his wife passed away of coronary heart disease. Mr. Valero has been actively taking part in the town's local government since ther second year in Huddeen. Their daughter, Amanda, regularly visits, although most of Huddeen only knows she drives a silver Camry.[/cell][/row][/table][color=white][sub][ ❇ ] H O U S E H O L D M E M B E R S[/sub][/color] [INDENT][sub][table][row][color=2c2c2c][sup][h3][b] ▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[right]▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/b][/h3][/sup][/color][/row][row][cell][center][table=bordered][row][img]https://i.imgur.com/1RlsrkR.jpg[/img] [color=2c2c2c]▅[/color][/row][row][cell=active][color=666666]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [i]"You bake with your brain, but cooking comes from the heart."[/i] [color=666666]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color][/cell][/row][/table][/center][/cell][cell][table=bordered][row][/row][row][cell=active][INDENT][sup][sub][h3][b][color=black] V A L E R O, C A R L O S || H O U S E O W N E R / R E T I R E D[/color] [color=WHITE]V A L E R O, C A R L O S || H O U S E O W N E R / R E T I R E D[/color][/b][/h3][/sub][/sup][/INDENT][sup]_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________[/sup][INDENT]A 74 year old retired chef, the son of Spaniards fleeing Franco's regime, Carlos worked himself up from potwash to owning a small hotel in Claremont along with his wife, Alejandra. At 65, they sold the hotel and retired to the countryside. After his wife's passing, he decided to solve the problem of being alone in a house far too big to inhabit or maintain by himself by offering rooms to students at lower rates in exchange for help with housework. One of the lucky few whose lifelong career had been their passion and hobby, Carlos is a cheerful fellow, nearly impossible to anger, at worst disappoint. A self-made man, he has no patience for lazyness and false excuses. Unfortunately, youth spent in financial insecurity and draconian working hours are catching up with him at his age in the form of Osteoarthritis.[color=666666]▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.[/color][/INDENT][/cell][/row][/table][/cell][/row][/table][/sub][/INDENT][INDENT][sub][table][row][color=2c2c2c][sup][h3][b] ▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[right]▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/b][/h3][/sup][/color][/row][row][cell][center][table=bordered][row][img]https://i.imgur.com/a3h8tBE.jpg[/img] [color=2c2c2c]▅[/color][/row][row][cell=active][color=666666]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [i]"Hunt to live, don't live to hunt.

Adopted at an early age by a gamekeeper and a teacher after her biological parents died in a flood, her father instilled in her a love of the outdoors and she eventually chose to follow in his career footsteps, enrolling in a bachelor's gamekeeping program at the Mendel University in Brno. In her third year, she took a semester in the United States as part of research for her bachelor's thesis, which is where the outbreak caught her, now stranded almost 6500 kilometers away from home. An active, outdoors person and an avid fantasy fan, Alena is outgoing, irreverent and loves to talk about her field of study to anyone who's interested in hearing about it. She is also a competent guitar player, particularly of the folk and country genres. She's been staying in Hudeen for only a few months.[color=666666]▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.[/color][/INDENT][/cell][/row][/table][/cell][/row][/table][/sub][/INDENT][INDENT][sub][table][row][color=2c2c2c][sup][h3][b] ▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[right]▅▅▅▅▅▅[/right][/b][/h3][/sup][/color][/row][row][cell][center][table=bordered][row][img]https://i.imgur.com/QZsIXSc.jpg[/img] [color=2c2c2c]▅[/color][/row][row][cell=active][color=666666]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color] [i]"If it's stupid but it works, it's still stupid, you just got lucky."[/i] [color=666666]▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅▅[/color][/cell][/row][/table][/center][/cell][cell][table=bordered][row][/row][row][cell=active][INDENT][sup][sub][h3][b][color=black] H A C K E T T, C A R S O N || T E N A N T / E X C H A N G E S T U D E N T[/color] [color=WHITE]H A C K E T T, C A R S O N || T E N A N T / E X C H A N G E S T U D E N T[/color][/b][/h3][/sub][/sup][/INDENT][sup]_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________[/sup][INDENT]A 19 year old second year undergraduate student of electrical engineering from Fayetteville, NC. The eldest of four siblings from two marriages, son of a USN machinist aboard the USS Helena and an optometrist. Finding the technical education in Fayetteville sorely lacking, he aplied to the New Hampshire Technical Institute in Concord, NH. A bashful Sci Fi nut, physics aficionado and amateur astronomer, Carson is the quintessential nerd. Unfortunately for the situation he finds himself in, he's spent a grand total of 20 minutes outside of a city in his whole life, the only reason he can even be found in what he would privately describe as the armpit of the universe being the drastically cheaper rent offered by Mr. Valero, althugh he would never admit his opinion of Huddeen to any of its citizens, especially since being in a sparsely populaated area might've saved his life. He's been living in Huddeen for a little over a year.[color=666666]▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.[/color][/INDENT][/cell][/row][/table][/cell][/row][/table][/sub][/INDENT] [/hider]
