Profession: Retired High School Teacher
Name: Brian Robinson
Age: 67
Gender: Male
Appearance: Brian is of average height and build. His large glasses have a strap on them to keep them on his face. He keeps his greying hair short and his face clean shaven. He wears khakis and a polo shirt normally, but has a windbreaker and sweater should the weather require.
Backstory:
Brian Robinson always liked working with his hands. Growing up he would take apart anything he could get a hold of to see how it would work. After serving a tour of duty as a mechanic in West Germany, he took up a career teaching physics and shop class at a high school in the City's suburbs. He also applied his skills at home, making multiple renovations over the years and building several pieces of furniture.
Retiring at 60, Brian and his wife Karen moved into the city to be more centrally located to downtown. When the outbreak hit Karen was visiting their nephews an hour's drive outside the city. In their last phone call she said that the military were setting up a base near their nephew's house, and that she and the rest of the family were going to try and weather the storm with them. He hasn't heard anything since.
