Had a fun birthday. Had some alligator tail for dinner, overall was pretty good for a place I hadn't been to before. Will start getting back into the groove of things soon.

Hi. If you've wound up here, you're probably wondering who I am.
You can call me Kuro, although some of you might better recognize me by one of the several other names that I have used in the past throughout the 11-ish years that I have spent on this forum. I'm a middle-twenties retail manager that is still trying to relive the glory days of their roleplay career while balancing a full-time job with an unsatiable need for overtime.
I tend to be open to most ideas when it comes to roleplay itself, be it whatever genre, group size, system, etc. That being said, I often gravitate to anything that falls in the following categories: anime, fantasy, slice of life, superhero or survival horror. If you believe that you have an idea that I might be interested in, feel free to shoot me a link; I'll get back to you as soon as I possibly can. Sometimes I forget to check my messages, so don't feel bad about pestering me again if I missed it.
I also have a discord server laying around. If we're cool, then I might be willing to a toss an invite your way.
Finally completed the CS, minus Holly's section. I'll fill her part out later, but I need to do a few things first and I wanted to get the CS up just so people can start thinking of relations or whatever that we haven't already discussed on Discord.
Originating from Milford, the Holloways have been a family name in Huddeen since the late 1940s when the former Holloway Textile Co. was consolidated into a larger company upon sale of the family business. James Holloway, eldest son of the late Francis Holloway and freshly home from overseas fighting in war-torn Europe, had used this as an opportunity to purchase a house in Huddeen, having found the town quaint and welcoming to raise a family in.
Since then, the Holloways have been an active member of Huddeen's community. Wherever you look, there has been a Holloway attached to almost every aspect of Huddeen, from the mayor's office to the fire department to even the local school board. Jill Holloway (née Cooke) was one such Holloway, working as the local weather correspondent until her passing of ovarian cancer just prior to the apocalypse.
Blake is a man that looks more like someone's grandfather than someone in his middle forties. Time and stress has weathered him considerably to where one might mistake him for being older than he actually is.
Driving semis for a living, Blake was often away from home hauling cargo deep into Canada or elsewhere. Sometimes it was apples to Quebec, other times it was Christmas trees to the Midwest. It was long, tiresome work, and it often kept Blake from being home with his high school sweetheart, Jill, and their two daughters. But regardless of how stressful the hours were, it kept his family comfortable, and that was all he wanted.
Then came the diagnosis. His beloved wife had ovarian cancer—and it took her, fast. She had passed while he was out on the road, far away from home. Since then, Blake has been beating himself up for not being there during her final moments; his grief still affecting him to this day even into the apocalypse.▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.

At five years old, Morgan was an unexpected yet welcomed member of the Holloway household. She doesn't quite understand why her mother is gone, and is known to ask innocent questions about her whereabouts. Additionally, Morgan also remains ignorant of the apocalypse, deliberately kept in the dark in hopes of somehow preserving her childish innocence. Her older sister, Holly, wants to tell Morgan about both, but she ultimately doesn't have the heart to do so. It'd crush her, and she likely would never be the same.▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ ▅ Use as many or few of the above symbols as needed to balance this cell with the cell containing the image.
Holly knelt in front of the kitchen cabinets, turning the corner cabinet turnstile around and around in dismay. By now, Morgan had wandered off to the open concept's living room, clearly more interested in playing with her plastic tea set than bothering Holly with questions as to what she was doing. Holly preferred it that way; she didn't want to Morgan to know that they were almost down to scraps. Whether or not Morgan actually knew what that meant was another question, but Holly didn't want to put that kind of pressure on her tiny shoulders. Like everything else that had happened in the last few weeks, it wasn't fair to her. Then again, it hadn't been exactly fair to any of them, either.
She sighed, cursing herself for not going shopping just prior to the fallout. At least with pancakes it was just a case of mix and water, but sooner than later they'd be hard pressed to cook anything else.
Maybe I could try and see if a text would go through...
Standing up from the floor, Holly grabbed her phone from the counter charger and pulled up iMessage. Typing away at the phone keyboard, she drafted up a message for some of the neighborhood kids—friends and/or neighbors that she had grown up and went to school together with prior to the apocalypse. She wasn't sure if any of them would receive the message, or how many of them were still alive. But anything was worth a shot, Holly figured.
Hitting send, Holly put down her phone on the kitchen counter and awaited any response.
