Growing Up | It's Anything But Simple

Samson Shin-won Ahn

Where? Nat's Birthday Party
With? @Lady Amalthea - Tas; @HushedWhispers - Nat; @Xtreme - Dom; & the Party-goers

---

The party-goers had flocked over to the table in no time as Sam was brightly grinning, happy that they all were into his parent's food. The birthday girl had come over and thanked Sam, and he in returned said: "Happy Birthday, I got my group-wife a great gift!" Reaching in his pocket he took out a black velvet box. He jokingly popped down on one knee and opened the box, showing a plastic, fake diamond ring that he had gotten out of 25 cent vending machine. "I promise you'll get a real one, one day." Sam said, winking towards Dom.

He picked himself up off the floor when he was met by Tas. A hug and compliment through, Sam returned the favor genuinely. "No way, now you look amazing." Samson said, dumbfounded and truthfully. Sam adored Tas whens he was in her scrubs, but he was enamored when he saw her dressed up. The woman was always a sight to see, but wow did she make his heart overwork in her outfit. "My mom said you need to stop by, she misses you." Sam smiled, knowing that he wished she would stop by his place more often too.

"Grab a plate to eat though, I'll go grab us a few drinks."

Fears:

Personality:

♦ Compassionate ♦ Stubborn ♦ Exciting ♦ Afraid ♦

Sam is a very friendly and open guy. He can be outspoken and loud, but most of the time he is just wanting to make others feel welcomed. The young adult has a lot of growing to do, but he is always wanting and willing to do whatever he can to do just that. He likes to experience as much as he can and is often times found doing things he is really uncomfortable with but knows that the feeling will pass once you make it a routine or habit. Trying everything once is one of his mottos, as long as it doesn't kill you.

One of the defining traits that Sam has is that he is extremely stubborn. Once he thinks he is right there is no real way to make him change his mind. He knows that it is something he needs to change, but in due time it will come. With that he also hates admitting that he's wrong, and it is hard because he always believes he's right. One other major flaw about Sam is that he can't commit to a relationship. Becoming serious with another person in an intimate way is something that scares the hell out of Sam, but again it all comes with experience and growth, something he knows his mother wishes he gets soon.

D E F I N I N G M Y P A S T

History:

Sam was born in California, his parents had immigrated from South Korea to open a now very popular Korean barbecue and restaurant. Both his parents are professional chefs but now have taken a bigger managerial role within their restaurant. Growing up Sam was always expected to take over the family business in managing it. They groomed him in every aspect but the cooking and artistry of the restaurant. His parents wanted him to run the restaurant from the top of the chain, not the kitchen. Sam has an older sister, Rosie, who was given a different role and path in becoming a doctor. As a teenager Sam was always kept busy in sports and extracurricular activities, along with a job at the restaurant right after whatever he had planned. There was never a second to himself, which was hard as he didn't every really have time for anything else. During whatever time he could spare on his fifteen-minute breaks or weekends he wasn't working, Sam drew and painted. He found a way that he could output his creativity in, which was drawing and painting. He joined an art club in high school and began a bigger interest in the arts.

The time he spent at the restaurant was always in the office managing the payroll or accounting, not being able to learn how to cook. His time at home though was spent differently. He was able to learn how to cook by his parents at home, but those meals were more casual and nothing crazy. He knew he wanted to cook like his parents, but they expected something different from him. They didn't want him to spend his time in the back of a restaurant, bossing and ordering around a kitchen. They wanted him to manage the business as a whole. He graduated high school with top honors and went off to college. His parents argued that he needed to obtain some sort of business degree and Sam wasn't having it. He did mention becoming a chef, but again his parents brushed that idea out of the door. So the next best idea was to become an advertiser. It was something he could picture himself doing, being able to express his creativity through the arts of drawing, painting, and design instead of the culinary arts.

During his college years Sam kept up with his busy schedule, becoming highly involved within many clubs and organizations around campus and also picking up many internships. He also began taking up part-time jobs as a bus-boy or waiter. He eventually found himself as a line cook at a few hot spots and it wasn't until after he graduated that he found some more free time for himself. Now with a more lax schedule and experience of freedom away from his parents he has spent more time soul-searching. He currently has a job as an intern at a local advertising agency and also works as a part-time line cook at a newly popular restaurant. He dreams of becoming a chef, obviously with his parents having no idea as they would automatically disapprove of his choice. Not living too broken down under his parents thumb he has more time to himself.

Sam is currently trying his best to make life simple, but obviously when you try to make things easier for yourself, life likes to throw things into the bowl to make things interesting.

The Bestiary of Imaginary Character, Hero, and Monster Protagonists

02. YANG CHI-YEOL AKA CHARLES YANG

"You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

Full Name: Charles "Charlie" Yang
Korean: Yang Chi-yeol
Age: Thirty-six
Sex: Male
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual

Allergies: Charlie's family grew up as foodies with huge appetites and deep pockets to match. It was at the age of six that he learned that he was allergic to shrimp. Depending on different situations, his reactions to shrimp usually ends up with Charlie getting swelled up, puffy cheeks and a matching tongue.

His reactions mainly come from the digestion of the shrimp, but there was a time in college that his face burned up as one of his roommates had microwaved shrimp flavored noodles and the flavoring in the air had caused him to break out.

Scars/Tattoos: Had one of his kidney's removed as a teenager, so he has the scars left on his body. Otherwise he was never really a man who got tattoos, regrets that he never got one though, because he believes it would have made him a bit more badass.

Height: Stands at a height of six feet, two inches (6'2")
Weight: A well oiled machine weighing in around two hundred and twenty-two pounds (222lbs)

Health Conditions: Charlie grew up with a gout, which is an attack of acute inflammatory arthritis or tender, hot, and swollen joints. They usually happen during the nights and early mornings during random times. The attack or pain usually lasts for two to four hours, which Charlie has gotten used to, but obviously the pain still hurts. There were instances where the pain had gotten to be so much for Charlie that he had to leave school during those attacks.

Skills: The skills that Charlie have vary. He is a well-off public speaker, athletically fit, but a true city-boy, never really being one to like being in nature. Charlie is a quick-study and learner though, as he had learned to adapt into nature and survive on instinct and gut-feelings. He also had joined a mixed martial arts group at the start of the incidents.

A very new skill that he picked up a year or so ago has been woodwork and carpentry though.

Hobbies: A hobby that Charlie still retains is reading. No matter where the group ends up he always has to find a book that he can pick up and bring along with him so he can have something to read. A new hobby that he had picked up though has been carpentry. He has had extra time on his hands so he learned how to build things out of wood. He can do pretty much any basic design, like chairs, fences, tables, and walls.

Fears: His biggest fear that he used to have was becoming a mute as he treasures his voice, but his biggest fear now is probably becoming a zombie himself. Charlie would rather kill himself than let that ever happen.

Strengths: His voice is a strength, and so is his charm. He has a warm and commanding aura and presence. Leadership is strong quality that he also has. Another quality that Charlie has that is a strength and weakness is that he is self-less, making sure of the positive well-being of others versus his.

Weaknesses: He isn't one for violence or guns, but he does know how to defend himself. He is a better brawler than he is a sharpshooter though if that counts, Charlie would rather choose to fight with his fists than with a gun in that sense. Both a weakness and a strength, he is pretty self-less, caring for the safety of others over his own though.

Personality: Charlie is very charming and outgoing. He is extremely warming and comforting, but it isn't only just his presence, the warmth is also in his voice. He can calm and soothe just about anyone which makes him a great orator or public speaker. At times he can be very fatherly, some people find it annoying, but he knows that all he's trying to do is look out for those around him. He is a man who would rather try to talk something out than rely on violence, but he is a realist and knows that the world is changing because times have become desperate.

Warm and welcoming is how Charlie is on the outside and most of the time, but the deep, inner parts of him are black and empty. Charlie does have a switch and he is the only person alive who knows about it. The sides to Charlie's two personalities are completely and utterly polar opposites. The kind, caring father personality that he showcases also has a darkened, demonic shadow form. The darkness came when the zombies arrived, taking away his family. Charlie's dark side has never been seen by his new friends and family, but he himself knows it is still there since the incident.

Overall Charlie is a genuine and sweet guy who is trying his best to help others live comfortably.

Biography: Charles Yang was born as Yang Chi-yeol in Seoul, South Korea. His parents, Chan-yeol and Jin-ah, were two young, rising professionals in two very different areas. His father Chan-yeol was a writer for a newspaper, New Seoul Times, while his mother was a researcher working for a medical research company called Kvanced Genetics. He grew up with his grandparents raising him as his parents were busy with their professional lives, so his childhood he grew up very traditional and well-groomed. It wasn't until the age of nine when his twin siblings were born that his parents took a step back.

His brother and sister were a blessing as with their arrival brought the presence of his parents home too. His brother was named, Jae-young and his sister, Su-ji. Being raised by his grandparents he already knew about chores and independence, so that also helped with him becoming a third parent to his siblings, making sure they were always in line and being safe. With his parents taking a step back from their careers they also decided to move the family to California in the United States. The move to the States also brought out new names, making it easier for others to get to know the children. Chi-yeol was renamed Charles, Jae-young to James, and Su-ji to Susan.

Coming to America gave Charles or Charlie as he went by the chance to become someone new. He used what his grandparents had raised him on and set out to become a positive role model for all. He was loud, involved, and very outgoing, becoming a star athlete and well-rounded student all through academia. He graduated college with a Law degree and was a public defender for a period of time before making the change to the corporate world. He was a budding professional like his parents, someone who was on the rise.

With his quick-wit and charm he made waves through successful agreements and settlements with companies and Fortune 500 groups and was on the fast track. His life seemed perfect, but the only thing that was missing was his family. Like his parents before him he had lost himself and forgot all about his family, and by the time he realized it, it was already too late.

Attacks had started happening and Charlie tried to get his family together. He was able to find and get to his sister, along with her children, but it wasn't too long before they were lost too. He found refuge in a new group and has been with them since, hoping to survive all he can with the people he now considers his family. One thing is for certain this time around, he will do whatever he can to make sure no one dies.

The Bestiary of Imaginary Character, Hero, and Monster Protagonists

01. FREDRICK CARPENTER

IN REAL LIFE

Name: Fredrick Carpenter
Age: 21
Gender: Male

Fred

Appearance: Fred is a tough, sturdy man. He stands at a 6 feet and two inches tall, with broad shoulders and a bulky physique overall. With striking red hair and golden yellow eyes he carries a very pretty face that is able to attract anyone. A charming and warm smile is also a genetic blessing he was given.

Background: Fredrick Carpenter was born as the fifth child in an already large family. Brenden, Connor, David, and Evan all came before him. As the fifth child he was also the fifth son, not having a sister, Amber, until he was eight years old. He grew up in a very outgoing and busy family, all his brothers in various sports and activities that he inherited from them as his likes. His area of interest was in football and baseball, playing since the ripe age of six due to his father.

He was always a part of a team his whole life, making Fred never really have a minute alone. He was either with his family or friends and spent every second with a smile on his face though, always cheerful and happy. Having so many brothers who were also skilled in various sports made Fred a very competitive person. He always wanted to surpass the high standards and bars that his brothers had set before him to make his parents proud. Some considered him a prodigy compared to his brothers in sports, but Fred knew that it was because of all the attention his brothers got that he was also throw into a sort of spotlight to all those on the outside.

The summer before his senior year of high school changed everything though. One drunken night a group of his friends had found themselves being kicked out of a party from causing too much ruckus and drama. Before leaving they had started to pick a fight with other boys outside and ended up bruised and bloodied, the brawl wasn't the worst of it though. The drunken group of friends had agreed to continue their party elsewhere even though they were injured, the alcohol still strongly in their systems. Fred's best friend, Benny, drove the group of friends to a nearby lake where his parents owned a lake house. But before arriving at the lake house Fred and his friends had found themselves wrapped around a tree with crazed injuries from both the fight and accident.

Four days from the accident Fred finally woke. He had learned that during his time asleep he had lost two of his friends and teammates, Benny being one of them. Things didn't go up from there as his whole body was in pain he learned that during his fight he had injured his ankle and that he would have made a quick recovery but the accident had caused his legs to be caught up between the car and he sustained even more serious injuries to it. What was looking bad was now looking worse as his dreams of playing sports were going down the drain he was also trying to sink in the news of losing friends.

After the accident Fred found himself in a depression. He lost his friends and he lost his passion and to add things up he was also in a wheelchair. His family tried everything they could to cheer him up, signing him up for therapy, for coaching positions on various teams, but it wasn't until his brother Evan gave him a new game for his computer that his attitude had began to change around. The game was Elder Tales, and having enough free time now he spent his days on the game, learning the ins and outs as he had lost his interest in sports he needed to keep his mind somewhere else.

Fred found a new identity online with Elder Tales and he was becoming a happier person. With a newfound happiness he was even able to make a stronger recovery, being able to stand up with crutches for his high school graduation. It wasn't until his sophomore year of college that he was able to consider himself healed person. He had forgotten the accident and found himself in a happy position, with new friends and even a girlfriend. He began working out again and even picked up a new sport, swimming. With such a happy outlook on life now and trying to keep himself busy, Fred had found himself pulling away from Elder Tales and all the friends and family he had made on the game. With the introduction of the new expansion pack though, that gave him a new excuse to log back on.

Personality: Fred is a happy-go-lucky kind of guy. He tends to be very positive and cheerful, but can sometimes be a jerk as the awful stereotypical jock attitude of his can still be shown. He is an extremely competitive person and can also be very vain. He has a bright and warm personality as he now pretends to be happier, because that in turn helps him believe it himself.

In the world of Elder Tales Fred's avatar, Red, is exactly the same. He is a fun-loving, adventure-seeking man who likes living dangerously. He also tends to showcase his competitive side when it comes to raids and joining parties. He still carries his outgoing personality though, making friends easily in the world of Elder Tales.
