That reminds me, I don't have a computer currently. Using a phone with a cracked screen, if it breaks any worse I might be gone a bit waiting for the warranty replacement.

Mhmn, gotta make good use of the claws. Piercing soft tissue is one of a few things they'll be good for. Anyway, made a small grammatical edit to my post. Please let me know if anyone sees any mistakes, thank you very much.

My brother and I used to own a pump action air powered pellet gun. It shot lead pellets a bit smaller than .22's and they could probably get through at least one side of the skull at shorter ranges. Also @Vermillion I'm glad you enjoyed that post. Cannibalism for the win right? Or maybe you preferred the throat rip?

Got a post up. Wonder if Drei's gonna meet anyone at the Space Needle

Downtown

The blood under his nails hadn't even had time to dry before Drei began tearing through the man's clothing, looking for anything that would be of use to him. As he searched the corpse, he recounted what had happened in his mind. The man had come out of one of the nearby buildings, screaming like a maniac in his rush toward Drei. He had a metal pipe in his hand, raised above his head. Drei turned to fully face the man, his arm shooting out to grab the wrist of the hand holding the pipe as it was being swung downward. The sudden stop caused it to slip from the man's grip, allowing it to hit Drei in the head, though only hard enough to barely hurt. Pissed, Drei pressed the fingers on his right hand together, claws pointing forward together. In a quick thrust his nails tore through the flesh of the throat, where Drei then clenched his hand into a fist and pulled back, tearing out a chunk of meat. A kick to the stomach sent the terrified man falling to the ground, where he lay bleeding and suffocating.

His mind returning to the present, Drei realized this poor soul had nothing of worth on his person. He stood from his crouching position, glaring down at the body. His stomach growled, and the smell of fresh blood in the air tempted him. Drei grabbed the body by the arm that had held the pipe, dragging it back to the building it came from. As Drei entered the large city structure he could smell faintly the scent of smoke, which he followed up one flight of stairs. There before him was this deceased man's humble abode, fire burning weakly with the smoke continuing up through a hole in the ceiling of the second floor. In the corner Drei found a pile of dried wood, which he used to feed the fire.

Once it had begun burning well again, Drei picked up a stick charred at one end. It was obviously what the man had used to cook his meals on, ironic that Drei would now be using it for the same reason. The irony was lost on Drei however as he pulled out his hunting knife and ripped a chunk of calf meat from the corpse. This meat he slid onto the cooking stick, which he then held over the fire. The meat cooked quickly in the fire's heat, and Drei watched as his food went from a soft, wet red to a charred brown. Pulling it from the flames, he brought the meat straight to his mouth, opening his jaws and sinking his sharpened incisors into it, holding it with both hands so he could rip off a bit to chew.

Drei had continued this until there was no more meat on the calf, and his stomach was sated. He knew all the smoke would likely have begun drawing other scavengers to his location, and he cleaned his knife on the trousers the man had been wearing. He tore a scrap of cloth from the man's shirt, using it to wipe his teeth down as he walked down the stairs. He poked his head out the doorway before walking back onto the street, and upon seeing his coast was clear he left the structure and began his stroll through the city once more.

Drei had no idea what exactly he was hoping to find this deep in the city. Most stores had been picked clean in the first few years, so that only left peoples' personal stashes and the people themselves , most of whom were hostile to anything that moved. Looking towards the sky Drei could see he was close to the building he had heard be referred to as the Space Needle. Thinking there could possibly be some friendly survivors, he began walking towards it.

@MatthiasAngel Naturally. We can expand the area as the RP developes.

《Convalescence - A New World 》

@Vermillion I agree with Matthias about the map idea. Any major location works, New York, Florida and California are all good.

《Convalescence - A New World 》

@Vermillion Will this be taking place in one specific area or the whole US?

《Convalescence - A New World 》

I put my character up there, since he was accepted.

Drei Reinhardt

Name:
Drei Reinhardt

History:
Drei was only three when civilization collapsed, and as such has no memories of the world prior to its current state. His parents were killed when he was five by a band of newly formed marauders and Drei was given the choice to join them or die. He was raised as a raider, taught how to fight and plunder. As Drei grew older he began to want to leave the raiders, and when he turned fifteen he left in the night without letting anyone know. Since then Drei has wandered on his own, surviving using what he was taught as well as by living off the land.

Age:
18

Gender:
Male

Personality:
Drei's personality is slightly rough around the edges due to his past. Raised by thugs, he's generally a gruff, direct, and often rude man, though he has his moments of kindness as well. He is extremely distrustful of most people until he gets to know them, and does not hesitate to attack if provoked. He is a nihilist and often is quick to state his opinions, though sometimes positivity can shine through. Along with all of this, Drei has no problem exhibiting romance and intimacy with men or women, so long as he has grown comfortable with the person in question.

Description:
With a rough and weathered appearance, as well as a tanned hide full of scars, one can ascertain fairly easily that Drei has been a survivor his entire life. He stands at 193 cm, weighing 97 kg. Musculature makes up the vast majority of this weight, and even under heavy clothing Drei's large frame is noticeable. His blonde hair, cut ragged by the blade of a knife, shines in the light when clean, though more often than not is full of dirt and grime. Drei's eyes contrast his darkened skin heavily, being an icy blue in color. His incisors were filed down when his adult teeth came in, mainly for intimidation though also for practicality in combat, giving his smile a fierce if not creepy look. His nails are usually filed into sharp claws. Overall his features are quite masculine, with a square jaw, strong cheek bones, and a chiseled nose.

Possessions:
Savenged undergarments
Hand crafted leather survivalist outfit consisting of fur lined trousers and duster lightly armored with hardened leather
Full shank steel toe boots

Equipment:
Scavenged recurve bow
15 arrows
Slightly dulled hunting knife
Hand made leather rucksack
Light blanket

Notes:
From his time with raiders, Drei learned how to use firearms and is an excellent shot.
Drei is skilled at hunting and preparing his own food, though has needed to consume human flesh many times, and no longer has any qualms with cannibalism.
When it comes down to a fight Drei is right at home with hand to hand combat, preferring his body over weapons most of the time.
Due to being raised by marauders, Drei's education is severely lacking. He was barely taught the alphabet and is still unable to read. What he lacks in intellect however is made up for in raw power and visceral instinct.
