@NecroKnight, do you realize that this roleplay is a group effort? A group of everyday civilians just trying to survive hell while keeping a bit of themselves (and it's just getting started).

⌠𝐈𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐀𝐓𝐄 ╼ 𝐀𝐍 𝐀𝐏𝐎𝐂𝐀𝐋𝐘𝐏𝐓𝐈𝐂 𝐒𝐔𝐑𝐕𝐈𝐕𝐀𝐋⌡

@NecroKnight, I already told you what you needed to add for the background. How did she get to Baltham and Bainbridge Island? And if you are still going to the military thing, what they did during the military. I'd rather you be civilian so more people can interact with you and you lose interest because no-one is interacting with you. But if you refuse to give up on having your character in the military, then go ahead and have them in the military. It has to make sense why they joined the military.

@NecroKnight, well you could still add more info about your character's background and physical description (the background is more important than the description).

@NecroKnight, you know that your character doesn't have to be military right? They could be civilian like everyone else. Your character could have that military background, but they can't be in the military.

@The Spectre

I was thinking more-like, being sent in with the Army or National Guard - during the initial lockdown.

@NecroKnight

The issue with that is the government doesn't know what's going on besides there being another shooting. They most likely think that people who said somebody was biting someone else was overeating. The CDC is only interested because it happened in a peaceful city that rarely had a shooting. Plus, you would have to wait a long time before the military and government enter a state of emergency as they haven't seen something like this before.

Remember, the idea of zombies don't exist in this version of Earth.

Besides, you can still add more info into the background and description.

@NecroKnight, it's a good character overall. However, you could add more things into the Physical Description and the Background. For description, you could talk about what she usually wears daily and how she does her hair. As for the background, how did she get to Baltham and Bainbridge Island? I'd also like if she got a medical discharge for losing her arm, leg, or whatever you want it to be. It doesn't even have to be a medical discharge. Just like what Valor, your character seems unapproachable to others.

Your character could have been military before they get the discharge.

@NecroKnight, oh my. I totally forgot about your character. I am so sorry. Let me take a look at it.

Brief History
In the year 1800, the Batigefalé Empire was still in a bloody revolt against the Ávila Royal Family. The revolt was in its seventh year as the Ávilist (supporters of the Ávila crown) slowly pushed back against the farmers and the lower class members. The cities of Sarzedela, Tarouba, Azia, and Tierrachá were still controlled by the rebels, meaning that their last province was Salillas. The smallest province in the empire and the Ávilist military was getting closer to their cities. All of a sudden, the Medellin and Varejão families soon rose against Ávila in the capital city of Millares inside their palace. The siege of the palace lasted for two weeks before the wealthy families managed to enter the family’s master room; however, their had escaped by a secret tunnel. The city of Millares was under the rebel’s control and that caught the Ávilists by surprise.

The province of Salillas among with the cities were saved for the harsh treatment of the Ávilist military and the rebels were finally able to push towards Millares. The heads of the Medellin and Varejão families met together and announced that they were the new rulers of Batigefalé and sided with the rebels. Prince Lucero Ávila II stayed behind to protect his family as they fled to [EMPIRE/KINGDOM NAME HERE]. The Ávila Royal Family lived as Lucero was surrounded and placed under arrest by the newly established, Medellin-Varejão Royal Family. The remaining Ávilists either fled to that [EMPIRE/KINGDOM] or fought against the New Order until their deaths.

The Ávila Revolt was finally over in 1801 as Mariana Varejão-Medellin II took the title, “Queen of the Batigefalé Empire.” The fourteen year recovery was hard for the nation as their military and navy were crushed by both sides of the revolt. Their economy was in ruins to maintain the fighting and the population died for several reasons—they all tie back to the Ávila Revolt. Most thought that the country was going to back up into several smaller nations, but it didn’t for two reasons: Stability & Education.

The stability in the empire was restored as the Varejão-Medellin families took the crown for the Ávila family. Mariana Varejão-Medellin II was the first ever queen in the empire’s history and that caused many to consider her as powerful. And she truly cared for the lower class more as she ensured that schools became public and free to the general public. As she has written to one of the nation’s most well-known writer, “Everyone has the right to know what’s happening all over.” The education improved as Mariana allowed schools to be free. The lower class were able to finally send their children to school without paying for the first time in their lifetimes. Adults, of course, went to school as well to read more and learn about math and science. After they are finished with school (with high grades), they can either attend one of the universities in the country or just go into the workforce. Most went to the work force, but some decided to take that extra step forward.

However, all of that could be taken away as fears of the Ávila family returning to claim their rightful throne once more. If they were to have the support of [EMPIRE/KINGDOM], then things will get bloody. That’s why the Queen is improving relations with several nations before they decide to attack back. If she manages to get enough aid or an alliance with a Great Power, then they could have a fighting chance. In the year of 1815, Mariana Varejão-Medellin II is ready as always to lead her nation into the future.

Additional Info
The Batigefalé Inquisition is coming to an end because of several reasons. The Ávila Revolt was one of the big ones as it accelerated the decline. The Varejão-Medellin families knew how bloody the Inquisition was getting and they wanted to end it to ensure that the country would become more stable. The Old Faith (notCatholic) were still around and being taught as the New Faith (notProtestant) came to existence. Some could say that they were the last nation to practice the Old Faith. The Ávila family planned to 'rid of the Old Faith' before the revolt happened. It was one of the main causes that the lower class revolt. With the fears of Ávila returning, they planned on banning the Old Faith entirety and destroying any copies that proved the Old Faith's existence.

Jack is a British-American man that was originally born in New York City. He’s the shortest person in his family with his 5’5 height and he can be often mistaken as a teenager. Despite his small height, he only weighs around 136.3 lb. That’s because he would often go on a run each morning and go to the gym, if he isn’t working on his job. He got his mother’s hazel eyes and his father’s black hair.

Often enough, he would most wear dark color clothes. He doesn’t go anywhere without his jacket no matter the weather. He also takes his beanie with him as well. He only wears jeans and casual t-shirts to places besides work. At work, he wears the white collared t-shirt with the dress pants and shoes. And he also has to wear the store’s dark blue apron. Jack doesn’t like the work outfit, but he only has to wear it on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Jack is an interesting person to hang out with, even if he denies it. He would spend time worrying about the smallest thing, even if it isn't that big of a deal. Many would think that he has some sort of OCD, but he doesn't. It's just apart of him that he had since he was a child. His few friends love him for his charm and humor. Jack can lift someone's spirits up in the matter of seconds. He cares for others that are in pain, but he knows the limits. Reality is apart of him and he think things that are harsh to others. His brother hated that about Jack while he was living with him.

Work in Progress.

Jack Elliott was born and raised in Baltham with his other brother, Ivan. His mother worked at the Sweet Bay Hotel and his father was busy getting his masters in the University of Washington. They weren't the richest people in town, but they have been here for a long time. His mother worked at the hotel for several years since it's opening and his father had been attending the local community college. He was accepted into the university. His father wasn't around for only two years of his life and that was because of the university.

After graduating, he spent more time with his two sons for years before he had to work again. He became a war correspondent for the Washington Post. Jack knew that he also wanted to become a journalist as well and started to write 'stories' on his everyday life. When he was thirteen years old, his father went to the Middle East to cover the Invasion of Iraq. He was mistaken by U.S. forces as a threat and opened fire at him, killing him in seconds. His wife was upset by the death of her husband. Ivan and Jack were also upset by their father's death as well.

She claimed that her husband's death was unjustified, but she couldn't do anything about it. Jack kept pursuing his dreams of becoming a journalist. He graduated for high school at the age of seventeen and attended the University of Washington. Ivan couldn't stand living in the same town and moved to California with his lover. His mother died of natural causes, but Jack said that she still had a broken heart about her husband's death. Regardless, he did his four years required in order to become a journalist and graduate as well.

During that time, he met with a tattoo artist during his twenty-first birthday. Valerie Alvez was a hard person to read at first, but she became a good friend to Jack. He worked with the Washington Post for six years before leaving them and becoming freelance. Now, he often works at a local store as a clerk and does his freelance journalist stuff often enough. Since he found out that Valerie was a freelance writer, they often worked together on interesting stories.
