Weird? I thought that there was supposed to be a picture of his dog somewhere? Huh?
 
Okay, everybody :) I have seven to start out with. You can continue to post character sheets. I can add you in later when another spot opens up, or if the group decides to grow.

The ones that received stats, I will be starting a proper discussion thread for us because I have a few things I would like to figure out with you. I will post a link to it here or in a PM when I get it up.
 
If I make a character for this, how likely/soon would I be able to get in on the RP? I have an idea for a character but the sheet is asking for a lot of detail, and I don't want to make an in depth character that I'm exited to play then have her not be used.

Also, if I can join where would my character start? Would she have been a roommate or will she be a random person the group meets while surviving? I'm assuming the latter. I'll go ahead and fill in the skeleton of her character sheet now, and I'll finish her up later

I can't say for definite. It may take about a week or so to get to a point where we could add her, but it's very likely that she could be added to the group. She would be a random person that the group meets. If you are still interested in joining in about a week or two, we can PM exactly how she enters.

Weight: 125 lbs

Phrase or Word: "I am not just some dishy bird to hit up while you're on the pull."
Weapon of Choice: Danny isn't much of a fighter, she's best off using her fast legs to carry her to safety. Although if she had to choose a weapon, it would be something light and easy to maneuver, like a knife.

Habits:
Drinking: She's a wine girl
Smoking: No
Drugs: No
Mannerisms: Nervous tapping / leg bouncing

Left Brain vs Right Brain:
Introvert or Extrovert: Quite an Extrovert

Confident or Timid: Inbetween. Her personality can come off as confident but she will second guess herself and may back down or change her mind if challenged
Animal lover: Cat person
Likes children: Indifferent, but kids seem to like her

Greatest Strength/Asset:
Her speed and stamina. Danny used to run track back during Secondary school in England. She was a mid distance sprinter, and her most noteworthy event was running hurdles. Ever since her track career abruptly ended, Danny has chosen to keep in shape by doing what she loves, running.

Greatest Weakness:
Danny is not strong. Her thinner figure isn't capable of supporting that much weight, which is a trade off for being agile. She is also a bit squeamish when it comes to blood and gore, and is easily frightened.

Priorities:
Survival of the fittest or Save as many as possible: Her conscience requires that she tries her best to save anyone
Women/children first or Whoever makes it first: She isn't sexist and hates it, but children are always first
People or Animals: People person
Group or Strangers: She will always trust her group over those she doesn't know or has recently met

How do they act under pressure?
Danny doesn't cope well under stress. She struggles between being courageous enough to do the morally right thing and tucking into a safe corner out of fear. If someone is brutally murdered before her eyes she will not be ok, even though she'll try to appear as if she is. Danny is prone to panicking, or freezing up in dire situations.

What is their pressure point?
Gore, brutality, morally difficult situations, extreme loss
Is it obvious when they are under pressure?
Danny tries her best to not show her inner conflicts and come off as a happy, cheerful young Brit. In the heat of the moment though, if she is struggling with a decision or overcoming fear, it might be noticeable by her hesitations, facial expressions, and/or actions taken.

Most comfortable when:
Things are normal. Traveling, chatting with companions, running, etc. Basically unstressful situations.

Least comfortable when:
Things get messy. Murder, stress inducing situations, when her conscience isn't clean.

Location when the bombs hit: Back at their home in Hereford, England
Father: Derek Craig
Location when the bombs hit: Back at their home in Hereford, England

** Danielle has had little to no contact with her family back home in the UK since the attacks started on the east coast

Hometown: Hereford, England. In Wales.

Childhood:
Danny didn't have a very significant childhood when it came to other English folks. She was raised in a family of five, with two other younger sisters. They would bicker over small things like any siblings would, but overall they were close, and Danielle loved Rosie and Natasha. Her parent's were well off enough to pay for her higher education at Bangor University in Wales, and by the time she was a third year the girl had decided she wanted to see the world, starting with America.

First Memory: Her parent's faces, looking down at her. She was in some sort of bouncer on wheels, running around the kitchen and playing with the attached toys. The memory is only a collection of images and small snippets but it's the farthest back Danielle can remember.

Brief biography: Danielle is British. She was in America for schooling when the bombs fell, participating in a Study Abroad program. She was attending West Virginia University in Morgantown. Since the attacks started, the Brit has been stranded in the country trying her best to survive and, maybe some day, make it back to her home in Hereford, England. Danny is an outgoing and somewhat chatty person. She can come off as a bit of a flirt to the blokes, but she isn't one to sleep around. Being from the UK, her vocabulary consists of quite a bit of British slang that most Americans might not be familiar with, but other than this her accent isn't very thick and can be easily understood. Although Danny is a smart and sporty person, she can still come off as a bit girly. She isn't much of a tomboy.
