@webboysurf I sort of had it in mind that it was some guy that turned out to be "not so good" but I am willing to suspend that if you want them to have that dynamic.

Shelter: A Zombie Survival Story

Quinn Ashburn

_{17 - Libra - Junior - 5'9'' - Sydney Sweeney}

“Oh sweetie, you showed so much spirit! A shame it didn't move you to actually try.”

Quinn, to a student at tryouts

---

Appearance Details

Quinn is 5'9'' and has shoulder-length blonde hair and dark grey eyes. She is often seen wearing trendy clothes or in her cheerleading uniform. She wears make-up in light colors and often wears a silver bracelet on her left wrist (a gift from her late father). Quinn looks like a happy teen roaming the halls, rarely letting the mask fall despite the whirlwind of emotions plaguing her mind.

Characterization

Quinn Ashurn is not a nice person.

Well, that's not 100% true. She tips over 20% at restaurants. She will give to the poor when able. She does her chores without being asked. Despite this, Quinn has a nasty streak in her. To her, it is the price one pays to be on top of the social hierarchy that is high school.

As one of the head cheerleaders on the team, she often has to make decisions on what is done during performances as well as who gets a spot. The power of such decisions has, more often than not, gone to her head and Quinn takes some pleasure in calling the shots.

Quinn does well in school, maintaining a 3.9 GPA and shows genuine promise in math class (though she will never admit it). Her mother is often overbearing and pushes her daughter to excel no matter the cost. Quinn is the youngest of 5 siblings and her older siblings are all out of the house and doing things for themselves, leaving Quinn to handle their mother.

Quinn dreams of going to college out of the country if only to get some distance from her family and this town.

Character Notes

- Quinn's mother works in local government.

-Quinn's older siblings rarely keep in touch, though her closest older sibling, Tracey, reaches out more often than not.

-Quinn dated a member of the football team sophomore year but the two broke up for 'reasons unknown'

Inventory

-Smartphone
-Purse with make-up, mints, keys, pens, mace, tampons, and her wallet.

As Dorian, Danni, and Zelda all made their way to the training room at varying intervals, Sabine got a message. She checked and it was a group chat between her, April, and Leah. She sent off a quick reply.

@April, @Leah

Glamour: I know! It sucks. At least I am with Danni. And Dorian is okay, I suppose. Got that little twerp Percy tho."

She put her phone away in time for Nemo to call them to attention. Zelda was on their team and she was there to stay. April and Leah would be on different teams than her and they would all be competing against each other. That made things a bit more....hot? Tense maybe, but still. She wouldn't hold back, of course, as she wouldn't expect them to hold back either. Leah she knew was a powerhouse. April, unsure.

Nemo had chosen them and she was still thrilled to be with Danni. She gave him a warm smile when he came in, only for it to sour as Dorian came in too. Well, Dorian was okay. She sort of connected with him at the carnival. Perhaps this wouldn't be so bad. Nemo had called them to action, to discover his weaknesses. She got the sense Nemo expected this to be more of a challenge, but she could literally read minds.

Dorian and Danni attempted to go first, telling Percy to back off. Sabine couldn't help but chuckle as the twerpy freshman had a little pout. To their credit, they did a good job. Very much got to some of the root, but there was always more buried deep. At least Dorian had invited her to join.

She strolled up in front of Nemo once Dorian and Danni had shared their set. "Cute boys, but it's my turn."

She stared at Nemo before closing her eyes, allowing her power to take form and sending it into Nemo's subconscious. Depending on the strength, this was either an easy task or hard. She expected Nemo's to be a vault, but she had gotten through. Either she was well above the others in terms of power use or Nemo had made it easy for her. She agreed with the former.

Once in his mind, most was laid bare. She saw Nemo, presumably at a young age (roughly 9 years old) coming out to his family and friends. Not a weakness in her mind, but good that he wasn't closeted. That could be a weakness for some and she was not about to be the person to out a faculty member for bonus points.

She saw Nemo attend a superhero academy very much like the one they were in currently. It was here she saw the school all but wiped out by some apocalyptic event. The only survivors were Nemo and his boyfriend. However, due to the guilt of such an event (in her opinion) Nemo's boyfriend committed suicide. Nemo was alone until he was picked up by some organization dedicated to protecting the timestream. Nemo had taken up a position with them as an assassin due to his ability to travel through time. He decided to retire in the year 2023 and became a teacher.

Amongst this traumatic event, she gleaned some other facts about him. Once she was sure she had enough to wow him, she came back out of his mind.

She debated if she wanted to unleash it all, but Nemo did ask them to exploit his weaknesses.

"You are a traumatized, old, gay man who lost a loved one during an apocalyptic event leaving you alone in the future until you were recruited by some time travel organization where you worked for them until you retired and became a teacher. Don't know why, but here you are. You hold on to that trauma. Among other things, your ability to time travel is only good for limited bursts. Small jumps are fine but longer jumps are unsure. You also have an injury in your left knee which is why you prefer your right side. Lastly, you have some weird fear that you will be injected with heroin that I can't place in any of your history. Either way, you fear it. Weakness."

She gave a small curtsy. "So how'd I do?"

All Hallow's Eve. A curious time. Banned by the Puritans due to its Catholic nature but shunned by those religious for its devilish incarnations. Almost like those who celebrate it lose their inhibitions and take in the darkness that is in every human being. Sure, some would claim they hide nothing, but they know the truth. It could be your husband claims to be out working when he is sleeping with the woman next door. Or your child says they don't know where the family dog went despite them knowing it is buried in your field feeding your crops.

Today is also Prudence's birthday.

It is a staunch reminder of who she was and where she has been. Prudence sits alone in her home, one built by her own hands. A carved-out paradise amongst the forest. Those in the nearby village have whispers amongst them of the shrew who lives in the woods, kidnapping children for her own savage pleasure. How she dances in the moonlight with nothing but the skin God bestowed upon her. And what beautiful skin it was.

The very skin that took her mother and father from her.

The very same skin that Prudence carves into to allow the flow of lifeblood into the pot in front of her. It is that time she sacrifices something of herself to continue her powers. Powers she asked for and has relished ever since. No one had ever explained to her how power felt. After all, she was a woman of color in Salem. If she had any power, it was minimal at best. Now, she had unlimited potential. She is feared, lauded, praised, scolded. All accumulating into a mixture that fueled her.

As the sigil went on, Prudence felt a tug. It wasn't physical, per se. Mental. Emotional. Whatever it was, it was evocative. She opened her eyes and saw a dark figure run at her. Before she could fight back, it wrapped itself around her. A moment passed before she realized it was a cloak. One she had not seen before. It certainly wasn't hers. Yet, despite this, it felt comfortable. Like it was handcrafted for her. Another thing whipped itself to her; this time a necklace. It's beauty was caught in the firelight.

Prudence stood up, glancing around. "My Lord, tis your doing? Perchance you can make yourself seen so I may thank you for precious gifts?" There was naught but silence.

Until a yellow portal opened and Prudence felt herself falling backward, quickly enveloped until there was nothing else.

---

She landed with a thud. Prudence took a moment, laying there, to gaze at her surroundings. It was a land unlike any she had seen. It welt alive. She could use all of her senses here and would come up with the same thing. Pain. Pleasure. Each equal yet alone.

She stood up and brushed herself off. The cloak that moved to her seemed to be able to move her when attached. "Tis uncertain, yet I feel...called here? What does my Lord wish of me?" she called to no one. Instead, the silence resounded back, stronger.

Prudence looked around one last time before stepping forward. There had to be someone here who could explain why she was here.

Sabine could have slept there for hours. But of course the school would not allow that. Not with the audition over and done with. She heard the knock on her door and turned over to see who it could be. Two slips of paper came into view. Groaning, she got up and walked over, picking up both of the sheets. She assumed one was for her and the other for Leah. She glanced over them, flopping the one meant for Leah on her bed.

Reading through it, it seemed she was on Nemo's team. The old guy was very odd. Sabine lit up a bit noticing she was with Danni. It was a pity that Leah, April, and Mai would not be on her team (Mai apparently going off on her own adventure), but Danni could make up for that. She was not too thrilled to see Dorian on there, but Dorian was all right in some aspects. And Danni liked him. The other two were....not ideal. Zelda she didn't know from Adam. And Percy was that annoying Freshman that Danni nearly incinerated. God, those two were going to be at odds weren't they?

She had some time to get ready, though she would much instead prefer not to wear the uniform, despite the fact she made it work (she made everything work). She changed, not caring if Leah was awake and watching her or still asleep. She opted to wear her uniform with a skirt. Once she was satisfied she looked good, she turned to head out, but not before blowing a kiss to Leah.

---

She enjoyed the stroll to the training room, if for no other reason than because she wouldn't be put to work. But she made it there nonetheless. Once inside, Sabine noticed the obstacle course. And then she noticed Percy, so far the only one who had shown up. Sabine moved away from Percy, nodding at Nemo. "Do not eat the pizza then if you win. More for the others that pull their weight." Sabine stood, waiting for the rest so they could get this over with.

She intended to win, despite being on a team she would not have chosen. She'd make the best of it and shine.

History

The Maiden - a Horror Past:

TW Racism

Prudence was born to hard-working parents, both of whom were taken from their home in Africa. Her mother worked as a domestic maid and cook while her father worked in the fields. When Prudence was 6 years old, her mother was accused of stealing from her employer, prompting the man of the house to hit her. Prudence's father did not take kindly to that and attacked the man. The next day, her family's home was torched, engulfing everything they owned. Prudence managed to escape, but her parents weren't so lucky.

The Mother - a Mad Truth: Prudence wants nothing more than to see the suffering of her enemies. To do so, she has called forth a dark power and pledged her loyalty to him. He makes demands and she listened, singing his songs and bringing others to his flock. In return, she is given the power to cause mayhem and misfortune to those who would attempt to stop her.

The Crone - a Grim Future: Prudence seeks nothing more than the destruction of those who wronged her. However, Prudence does not just wish her current enemies undone, but all those who oppose her and women like her. Labeled as witches with no evidence other than their own fear. Any man who can so willingly discredit a woman for their own nefarious purposes is not worth the dirt beneath her soles.

The Lore: Prudence's life was taken from her as a young girl when those in her community burned her home down with her parents in it. She escaped but was on her own. An older woman took pity on her and kept her safe and hidden until she was old enough to be put to work. Each day Prudence left to go work for a White family who treated her like gravel on the ground and each day Prudence pledged revenge.

Rumors had spread through her community about witchcraft. A day did not go by in church when the leader would shout about witches and the devil taking their hard-earned community, coming after their children, and sacrificing animals. Prudence listened intently. After all, this was something the people feared. If her enemies feared it, it had to be worthwhile.

So on her 18th birthday, Hollow's Eve, Prudence pledged herself to the Devil. She called forth his power, offering her own blood to do so. She felt chills and fire as he appeared before her, offering a contract. With it, she would be given the power to destroy her enemies.

Power comes with price. Prudence did not mind paying. Having lived on her own, she was secluded from the others in town. During the night, she would lead many of the young girls there to secret dances where they covered their flesh in blood and spoke in tongues.

Prudence founded a small coven of these girls, but rumors continued to spread and many were charged as witches and were killed, whether or not they were witches did not seem to matter. Soon, eyes were on her and a mob formed. Prudence had left before they had arrived, but not before leaving them with a gift, setting her home on fire and managing to catch three of the mob in the flames.

Word spread that Prudence was a witch and to be on the lookout for her. Prudence bided her time, amassing more power as she continued to stalk and gather resources and members for her flock. The Devil may have given her the power, but she improved upon it.

Perry listened as the others spoke up about some of the wild adventures they all went on. Perry remembered seeing something in passing about the Statue of Liberty bit. She was sure she had heard about some other things, but she probably didn't pay much attention to them. Now she felt bad being a part of them. But then, it allowed her to form new memories and go on new adventures.

Thus far, this new adventure kind of sucked. Not being with some of her team, but being trapped on a floating rock in space with a dude with the world's most punchable face. And having people who very much did not like the Xmen with them didn't help. "Well that all sounds like a wild ride. I definitely need to hear about that whole alternate reality dealio. Sounds like a trip. Literally!"

Soon, they heard more footsteps. Again, it seemed they would be met by others on this asteroid. "So what's the plan now? I am ready to punch faces, but I can hold off until we are sure they are friends or foes."

Previously: Let The Beat Move You

Harlowe was waiting for things to be wrapped up. Any normal person would have figured a team swap would be over and done with quickly, but it seemed one of the teams had other ideas. It was kind of hilarious and Harlowe fought back a guffaw at the sheer lunacy that was going on. God, she was glad not to be part of that team. It was like high school, though Harlowe hadn't really experienced high school the way most kids did.

The staff tried to corral the students who were screaming and threatening each other to no avail. Harlowe looked at the other students, especially those who had made the switch. One had come over to her side after leaving the chaos team. They looked unapproachable, but that didn't stop Harlowe before.

Harlowe made her way over to the newcomer. "Hey, name's Harlowe. Welcome to team Firebird. I won't ask what's going on with that lot since I imagine that's part of the reason you came over here, but I am here if you do want to talk."

Another Firebird was nearby, offering fistbumps to the newcomer. She identified herself as Ariel and Harlowe felt bad at not knowing that. Granted, she hadn't spent time with most other Firebird members before their camping trip was cut short by terrorists. Still, she would make up for it now. "Harlowe. We didn't get to know each other before but hopefully we can remedy that. Also, pronouns are she/her."

Soon, everyone was leaving to go choose their house. Harlowe looked at her options. She honestly didn't know how she felt about all of them. To put students into a house based on simple characteristics seemed.....stupid? People were not a set of adjectives. This wasn't Hogwarts (thankfully. Anything to get away from transphobic JK Rowling..).

Still, she had to play along. It was this or leave and the outside world wasn't so inviting right now. Granted, they were just attacked and had a funeral for someone who was killed in said attack, so it wasn't so great within either. Still, Harlowe made her choice.

Greetings and Salutations Harlowe, We are pleased to announce that after review, we have found you to possess great sociableness, a trait that we truly hold dear and revere in House Lynx. We hope that you'll make ours your House of choice upon receiving your offers. Sincerely, Viktor Bordeaux

"We'll talk later Firebird. Time to join a house." Harlowe left her team and made her way to the silver or gray banner "Hey, name's Harlowe. I'd like to accept your invitation to join House Lynx. I'm looking forward to it!
