Story
A nuclear war blew civilization to pieces. No one's sure who started it, but the in the end, it doesn't really matter. The result is the same. Humanity is scattered, with small groups here and there, loners searching for food, company, and a place to sleep. Now, a new "colony" is forming, with the unlikeliest of members.

Accepted Charachters Username:RikaBooBaby
Name: Charlotte Eventide (Called Lottie)
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Bio: She survived the bomb in her city... Barely. Her eyes were very damaged by the shrapnel- in fact, Lottie is now completely blind. She had some radiation exposure, but built up tolerance to it.
Special Skills (if any): Exceptional hearing/smell, and a sort of sixth sense....
Reason for Surviving: She is afraid of death, and determined to live- at all cost.
Picture:  --- Name: Gil Brahun. Age: 25. Gender: Male. Bio: Gil survived the blast due to his fortune of being on a submerged submarine, on a mission, when the act occurred. When they resurfaced, they found all communications were gone, and the world in shambles. His friends either went their separate ways, or remained on the sub to see if survivors would come. Gil decided to go out and find the survivors himself. His arsenal of one ACR Assault Rifle, Striker, Drum-Fed Shotgun, and G18 Machine-Pistol Sidearm have yet to fail him... Special Skills (if any): Ex-Special Forces Major. A marksmen with a rifle, and proficient with his weapons. Reason for Surviving: Just because the world has pretty much ended, doesn't mean his pact to make sure at least someone survives hasn't. Picture: Gil--- Username:Madwolf023 Name:George Freeman Age:19 Gender:Male Bio: George was in the forest, thus missed the blast. He has so far received very little side effects from radiation, but is scared that soon it will occur. Special Skills (if any):Hunter, knows the wild better then anyone, or at least who lives. Reason for Surviving: If you can't live, then what is the point of life? Picture:

((As was pointed out to me, it's safe to say we're NOT getting any more people, so we're just going to start! Anyone who doesn't mind joining late can still come, though.))
Lottie picked her way through the ruins of a supermarket, putting cans in her bag. No clue what was inside them, but food was food, and she was hungry.

Gil whistled as he walked down the ruined street, listening to chatter coming from the sub he was stationed on. The Chatter was coming from the other soldiers, still on it and keeping it up and running.
"So Gil, how's the Geiger Counter?" One asked in a joking manner.
"Broken. Kinda like your head when I get back there, seeing as I KNOW you cheated to get me out here." Gil said with a smirk, cracking his knuckles.
"Oh come on, we all drew straws fair and square!"
"Yeah? I'm STILL breaking your head!"

Lottie listened. 'Voices. I swear those are voices,' She thought. She hadn't seen other humans- who weren't bandits- in a long time. She hid herself behind a shelf. They were getting close, and Lottie couldn't tell if these were the same kind of lowlifes who took her food and anything else useful. A can she'd just picked up fell out of her pack, and made a loud clattering noise as it hit the ground. Lottie cursed internally, but didn't move.

Gil's eyes darted to the sound before jumping over a street barrier, ACR at the ready.
His training was getting the better of him...Like some terrorist was about to pop out in front of him AFTER the apocalypse? Please...
He then stood up and put away the rifle, but kept a hand on the holster holding onto the G18.
"Hello? Anyone there?" he called out, slowly walking towards the sound.
"I'm not here to harm you, just to help."

Lottie wondered for a minute. 'Keep hiding, and be caught later, or give myself up now?' The man didn't sound like on of the bandits, who would've just threatened her. Slowly, she stood up, and turned to face the general direction of the voice. "I've heard that before," Lottie lied, keeping her face blank.

Gil looked at the woman before taking his hand off of his weapon and holding his hands upward to keep them in view.
"I'm a soldier who survived the blast due to my sub being in the water, ma'am." he said, walking towards her.
"If you do not trust me, I can understand. But I DO want to help you get to safety."

"I want to hear that gun of yours hit the ground," She said, not moving. "And you and I both know there isn't any safety on this planet. We bombed it all away." Lottie's voice was bitter, but she didn't ask him to stop coming closer.

"As a soldier, dropping my weapons either means I have lost, or my job is complete. Neither has happened. The safe place I am talking about is the sub I'm assigned to." Gil said, still walking towards her.
"That sub has four other soldiers, as well as a staffed crew of men and women ready to help any and all they find."

"A sub? Doesn't that sound a bit.... I don't know.... Crowded?" Lottie asked, a bit skeptical. "And.... Can you at least put the gun, like, in a pack? I can't see when your hand is or isn't off it. You could be aiming at my head, ready to blow my brains out, and I wouldn't know." She swallowed. She hated admitting she was blind. But she hated guns more, and the stranger could be lying.

"We've begun fortifying the harbor into a base until we can find any sort of surviving form of government." Gil said with a sigh, knowing full well that's more than likely a hopeless endeavor.
"Yeah! And when we DO find them, tell'em WE NEED MORE DUCT TAPE!!" One of the soldiers over the intercom said with a laugh, clearly listening in this entire time.
Gil's eyes twitched before his hands were placed on the woman's shoulders. He had no other idea onto how to prove to her his hands were empty.
"Does THAT show I'm not holding the weapons..?"

Lottie snicked at the duct tape comment, before her mind strayed back to the government issue. The man was startlingly close, but she ignored him, thinking. So, when he put his hands on her shoulders, she almost jumped in surprise. "Y- yeah, that's one way to prove it," she said looking up at where he should be. Old habits are hard to break.

"Alright." Gil sighed, seeing that he got her to trust him at least a little.
"Now then....Want to go to that sub with me?"
