Character Bio
■ Character Name: Abigail Romero
■ Nickname: Abby
■ Aliases: n/a
■ Monster Species Type: Zombie
■ Gender: Female
■ Age: Physically 16
■ Birthday: March 3rd/December 7th (death)
■ Place of Birth: Warren, Pennsylvania
■ Residence: Horror High
■ (One) Power: Berserker mode (zombie mode); this is something Abby has little to no control over. If a contaminant were to get into her exposed brain, be it a bug, debri or any other outside source, she would temporarily lose her mind until the impurity is removed. This ‘ability’ could be considered a second personality; given it is the complete opposite of her normal behavior. She is no longer able to control her hunger or common sense, becoming nothing but a generic rage zombie. She will eat, or at least attempt to, anything that has any flesh attached to it and will also make no distinction between friend or foe, attacking anyone in her path. If she is not around anyone in the initial start of one of these attacks, she will fumble around aimlessly until something catches her attention. If you see her zoned out… run. To reverse or end the effects, whatever has touched her brain must remove itself of its own free will, be removed by natural means (mucus from the brain cleaning itself) or be washed out – though the latter involves others knowledge of the issue.
■ Personality: Shy yet far from reclusive, Abby isn’t afraid of social interaction. She enjoys sports and is quite the speedy runner, but her size and clumsiness keep her on the sidelines for most sports or activities. She’s very friendly, always offering to hold the door or carry any extra weight someone might have. While she may be intimidating by size, she is far from it in personality. Abby has a love for smaller things, be it other students (which isn’t hard to be), animals or hand crafts. She is extremely gentle in nature, very careful when handling things as she is prone to breaking almost anything by accident. Intimidated by her peers, she tends to back off or allow others to take charge so that she doesn’t have the opportunity to mess up or damage the chances of a good outcome. She is afraid of judgment, constantly fearing that others are making fun of her for her height, clumsiness or appearance in general and does whatever she can to stay out of the limelight. Average, Abby doesn’t have the highest grade point average or scholastic prowess, but what she lacks in book smarts she makes up for with street smarts. Despite her seemingly cowardly and ignorant behaviors, she understands people, motivations and reasoning and can easily avoid trouble; so long as her ‘head is clear.’
Appearance
■ Height: 6’2” - 188 cm
■ Weight: 198 lbs - 89 kg
■ Hair Color: Electric blue
■ Hair Length/Style: When down, her choppy hair reaches her mid-back, with a large chunk missing right above her left temple where it seems her scalp had been removed. Most of the time, due to convenience, and to keep it away from her exposed brain, Abby keeps as much of her hair as possible in a high side ponytail.
■ Eye Color: Jet black with small, white pupils
■ Skin Color: Deathly gray
■ Build: Abby is slender and lacks an obvious bust, but her hips are wide and very defined, all held together with long, thin legs. She also has very terrible posture and generally slouches when she isn’t thinking about it. She has a very physically suited body, but does not participate in sports or games due to prejudices against zombies.
■ Clothing STYLE: Attracted to bright colors, Abby often wears deep, saturated clothing to make up for her less than spectacular appearance. She also dresses for comfort rather than style, afraid of standing out too terribly much. Season doesn't matter for her style as she cannot feel changes in temperature, so it's all just a day by day style. One day she'll be wearing capris with a tank-top, another she'll be wearing a long skirt with some kind of loose top. She finds no need in overly complicated or intricate clothes, knowing full well that they're far too restricting and can get damaged quite easily.
Relationships
■ Relationship with Family: When living, Abby was very close to her parents and twin brother. Everyone was well adjusted and happy, living a common lifestyle. Abby was the only one not to survive the accident.
■ Key Family / Relatives: Melissa, mother; Adam, father; Dexter, brother.
Biography
■ History: Living a normal life, Abby went to school with her brother in a calm neighborhood. Her parents were middle class and everyone was far from uncomfortable. Even in life Abby was unusually tall, but in most cases it worked to her advantage. She played sports alongside her brother, particularly track and football, and exceeded expectations. She was good at what she did and she enjoyed every minute of it. However, on the way home from an away game, an oncoming car ran a red light and collided with the rear-passenger seat. Her mother and brother suffered concussions, but Abby didn't make it through the night. She hardly remembers any of these things, but tends to enjoy the same types of activities and entertainment as she did while living.
■ Personal Goals: Overcome her obstacles, make friends and perhaps find a cure for her issue. Abby wants to join a sports team, particularly track or something involving running, but needs to overcome her clumsiness.
■ Professional Goals: Abby isn't quite sure what she wants to do with her... life, merely wanting to finish school and continue onward in death.
