Occupation: He’d just finished High school when he got infected, and hadn’t yet settled into a full-time job.
Height: 6’2”
Weight: 170lbs
Build: He’s overall thin, and just sort of rectangular in frame, not particularly broad in any area, in fact having rather slim shoulders. He’s lanky, being mostly limbs. While being kinda skinny, he’s not underweight to a unhealthy degree, but certainly seems like he could stand to gain some weight.
Eyes: He has hazel eyes that always look a bit too watery and a little bit sad. They can change color depending on the day, but a lot of the time look blue-ish green.
Hair: He has dark hair, which nobody can quite agree if its brown or black. Its a slightly wavy texture, and pretty thick, and surprisingly coarse.
Skin Tone: He has just sort of medium-white skin, not really tan or pale. Just that sort of middle ground.
Tattoos/Scars/Piercings: None
Clothing: His signature look is the biggest hoodie he could find, which is a grey-ish green color, and dark colored jeans with the whole knees ripped out. He has already beat up sneakers and a hairband around his wrist that isn’t there for any reason other than he put it on there while cleaning one day and ended up liking it. When not in his hoodie he’s usually wearing a plain t-shirt.

Personality: Keagan is a super sweet kid, but he’s always been too concerned with others. Although he’s loyal to a fault, cares about his friends deeply, and trusts others easily. But it’s more that he’s concerned with how others think of him. He started out as just a quiet, cautious kid who wanted to have adults be happy with him, but as he got older he started to think more and more about what his peers thought too. He wasn’t someone who ever wanted to be “cool” in fact he didn’t want to be noticed much at all. Having the spotlight on him in any way almost terrified him. He didn’t want to do anything risky, he didn’t want to be popular, just completely normal. Because of this he never really thought much for himself, always following the lead of others, and never bothered to spend time finding himself. He found himself always repressing his interest in things if none of his friends were into them, and forcing himself to be interested in things that he considered ‘safe’ because those around him were doing it.
He’s always been extremely careful with people’s feelings, and never wants to say things that will be upsetting. He does tend to apologize for every little thing and can be very self-deprecating. Even though he doesn’t feel like he has much to offer he is desperate to be a part of a group and show that he’s worth keeping around for something. He relies on the guidance and example of others and is very bad at making his own decisions and when he does have to, he goes on pure instinct. He’s extremely slow to anger, in fact nobody has ever even seen him mad, he tends to just get sad and upset more than anything when something goes wrong. He tends to panic easily, and isn’t exactly level-headed in any sort of crisis situation.
Fears:-Being Forgotten: After spending his whole life trying to be nothing, all of the sudden it’s become a deep seated fear. He wants to make a meaningful connection with someone, at least one person, so that he won’t be forgotten and uncared for at any point.
-Unfamiliar Things: Needless to say, Deadware is a traumatizing experience. He finds comfort in familiarity, and being put in a new scenario without any support or comfort is extremely difficult.
-Blood, Injury, and Dead Bodies: It makes him extremely uneasy, to the point of becoming dizzy/weak or vomiting.
Likes:-Sleep: There’s nothing Keagan appreciates like the soft embrace of sleep. He tends to want to nap a lot, although that’s not really too much of an option anymore.
-Close Friends: True, trusted people that he can really be himself around. He’s still trying to figure out who he is, before it’s too late, and he appreciates being able to have people he can trust to help with that.
-A Good Hug: Nothing better.
Dislikes:-People Who Ask too Many Questions: Getting things wrong is something Keagan absolutely dreads. So when he answers questions, even about himself, he’s always super cautious about how he answers. So being asked a lot of questions feels like an interrogation to him and makes him pretty anxious.
-Not Being Allowed to Talk: He’s often soft spoken and goes with the flow, so when he has input, it’s very devastating for him to be talked over and ignored by others.
-Large Groups: They make him feel awkward and invisible, and he’d do anything to NOT be in a crowded room.
Pre Infection Skills:-Gauging Reactions: He’s always been very sensitive to what others think and feel, and has always had a particular talent for altering his behavior to get the reaction he wants.
-Organization: Keagan is surprisingly organized, and is able to keep track of things with relative ease, because it puts his mind at rest when things are taken care of.
-Memory: Always having a good memory, he often can recall little details of events that nobody else does. This is a skill but also painful because he remembers a lot of the little things he remembers all the small things he finds embarrassing or bad and reflects on them endlessly. Any negative experience sticks with him a long time, but useful information does as well.
Post Infection Skills:-Extreme Alertness: Although it may not always be a bonus, he does notice lots of small noises and occurrences, especially after arrival in Deadware. He’s always on his toes and can be the first to notice something amiss.
-Instincts: He can almost smell danger and run from it, and just mindlessly does things and they seem to work out in some capacity. He also seems to know deep down when something is wrong with someone, even if he doesn’t know what or how to help.
History Before Deadware: Keagan started out as a perfectly normal child, and in fact was really nothing special at all. He wasn’t particularly smart or athletic, and went through most of school with average grades, and tried several sports but was never exceptional. Overall though he just faded into the background, not being very memorable. He always had a bit of a cautious disposition, which developed into anxiety as he got older. He blended in so well because he was afraid to “step out of line” and draw any attention to himself. Laying low is just how he operates, and he has a remarkable ability for noticing patterns in people and changing his behavior accordingly. But that also meant he was never really able to find himself, and he’s very confused about who he actually is. He was tested for lycanthropy shortly after he finished highshool, and the results left him with far more questions than he ever had before.
History Since Diagnosis/Arrival: His symptoms had just barely set in, and hadn’t even started to set in physically yet, just internally. He’s currently traveling to Deadware, and the whole ordeal has made him incredibly anxious and uneasy about his entire situation.
