Bites her lip when she's nervous and rubs her temples when stressed. She walks in a swift, fluid way that's hard to keep up with.
Irish accent that sounds more like a Scottish one when she's angry
Keeping her family and friends safe
Getting to Haven and building the first permanent Rebel community
Wants to become something like an emergency medic that scrapes folks out of car crashes and heals them.
A bit passive-aggressive and blunt with strangers she doesn't like. She doesn’t care about your problems, she has plenty of her own, "thank you very much."
Her tongue gets her into trouble- Whatever you do, don’t tell her to shut up. She knows roasts that will destroy you. Rip.
SO BASICALLY, IF YOU SASS HER SHE WILL SASS YOU BACK
Believes that her family's safety is more important than her own.
Good planner, expert strategist- though her plans are risky and only barely possible- But that what makes them so good, because her plans are so close to far-fetched they’re incredibly unexpected.
She's great at setting bones and dressing wounds, including her own.
She’s good at hide and seek and plays a homemade sport called “Faceball.” Don’t play it. She’ll break your nose.
She also speaks a small amount of German.
- Faceball
- Reading
- Journaling
With friends: Casual, teasing and confident. Competitive, and always up for an adventure. She has high standards come first though, and she stubbornly refuses to do anything to violate those standards. She doesn't care at all about social acceptance and has pretty much no craps to give about society. Unapologetically herself.
At work: Calm, cool and collected. If a friend came into the trauma bay, she's probably gonna tease them for getting hurt (A coping mechanism she absorbed off of Celeste.) She works quickly and efficiently, entirely focused on her tasks.
Alone: "forget manners, i ain't sittin like no lady- wheres the doritos"
With a stranger: Quietly observing their every action, constantly reading their body language and looking for hidden meanings in their speech. She's freakishly observant and serious. If she's interested in you, (platonically or romantically (rare)) she'll ask you lots of questions as she tries to read what kind of person you are. If she deems you a bad influence, crappy individual or annoying, she'll abandon her design and leave you alone as subtly as she came. If she likes you, she'll remember everything you say and produce follow-up questions. If you ask her a question, she might give you a brief answer if she's still on the fence about whether or not she trusts you. She avoids talking about herself because she thinks people like that are annoying. There's an exception to this prejudice if she wants to learn more about you- but if all you ever do is talk about yourself, even after you've gotten to know her for a while- oop, she gone, dude.
So basically- It's very hard to become her friend.
With family (siblings): A bit sassy and bossy, but very affectionate. Won't hesitate to yell at her siblings, but won't hesitate to kiss them on the forehead either. She respects her siblings and their personal space, but she might lecture them if they make bad choices. Her siblings respect her too, despite the occasional sibling rivalry and quarrels.
Overall description: Passive-aggressive dragon lady
April 20th 2120
She's homeschooled with what little curriculum they have, but she's a strategic genius and an expert survivalist.
I'd say her formal education is a 6 on a scale of 1-10, but her overall intelligence is an 8.
She was born in Kash's caravan, only eight days prior to her parents joining the group. She was a healthy baby and she weighed around 7 pounds, I think. She learned how to shoot her first gun when she was six or seven years old, but she didn't actually get a gun until she was eleven. It was stolen in a raid from another survival group, and she replaced it with a machete that belonged to her father.
She's had second-watch since she was twelve years old, and her shift lasts from 1:30 AM to 2:30 AM. She usually spends that time studying the scriptures and/or writing in her journal. She's a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. About fifteen other members of their survival group form their branch, including her parents and her three siblings.
She occasionally goes on small scouting expeditions with five other Rebels to scout the route. They leave marks on the trees or ground for the rest of the caravan to follow- If they find that the destination is undesirable or dangerous, they'll draw or carve a big circle with an X in the middle of it before backtracking and rerouting to find a better campsite. They'll wait for the others at the designated campsite that they find.
Her dad is sick, and her mom spends a lot of time caring for him with Dr. Bennet. Note: He does NOT have veloxia, thankfully.
Casual clothing choice, like her brother. All of her clothes are hand-me-downs and scavenged in building crumbles. She likes leggings and sports bras, typically wearing an oversized t-shirt over them. She keeps her machete on her at all times.
She wears her backpack when the caravan is on the move, and she prefers to walk alongside the jeeps sometimes so she can stretch her legs (She gets restless.) As a result, she gets dusty clothing during the dry season.
She "borrowed" a pair of GES armored boots she found on a battlefield, and she wears them often. She also has an old pair of tennis shoes, but she saves those because they're in poor condition.
She prefers hot weather over cold weather and she doesn't have a swimsuit, because she has no idea how to swim. She doesn't like the water and is probably hydrophobic.
Steps on a landmine planted for Hollows. Loses most of her right leg in the explosion and gets third-degree burns along her right thigh, side and knee. She gets a robotic leg replacement built by GES prosthetic engineers after Fourteen disguises her as a GES and waltzes her into sickbay for treatment. (Celeste doesn't have enough resources to build a replacement, but she dressed and stabilized the wound after amputating her leg.

"What kind of frickery is this?"
"Why, you little flip-"
"Who the heck are you?"
"What the frickle-frackle?!"
"GREAT MOTHER OF SCANDINAVIA-"

Soldier by Fleurie
SHE'S TRAILER TRASH WOOO
She was born in the Rebel Caravan, so she lives in an RV. Her home-on-wheels has two bunkbeds hidden by curtains in the hallway to the Master Bedroom. She gets the bottom bunk on the right side, and she has a little secret compartment that she shoves all her stuff into. The RV has a small kitchen with a stove, microwave, and a built-in minifridge. The "Living room" is an open space next to the kitchen that expands outwards when the vehicle is parked. The driving area has an overhead area thing that they've rigged into a mini barracks. The wheels have been replaced with heavy-duty tires to accommodate rugged terrain, and the whole vehicle is kinda roughed up. It's pretty well fortified, and any holes they get on the trail are welded shut with scrap metal.
(it looks super junky, but it's very well-fortified and surprisingly nice inside!)
Their RV is called The Endeavor.
(ok so this part might be confusing since u don't know the vocabulary, so here's a little baby glossary:
GES: basically super-soldiers that are genetically enhanced and stuff. Also known as Zeros.
Hollows: just picture a zombie that isn't green and ur good
Veloxia: the pathogen that turns u into a zombei- sometimes referred to as the Plague )
She's seen many hollows throughout her life- She practically grew up alongside them. But she saw one when she was seven that she'll never forget. Rebels call the GES Zeros, but when a Zero becomes a hollow- they call them Greenliners. (Zeros wear masks over their faces with glowing lines on the sides. The lines are typically blue, but they turn green as a warning if the soldier becomes a hollow.) Those things are terrifying, man. They're just like an ordinary hollow, except they don't stumble around dizzily- They just WALK, normally. Sometimes they run.
They're smarter than your average hollow, too. Like, regular hollows are smart enough on their own- They can open doors and sometimes they even remember where they used to live. Greenliners are different because they remember more- like, how to open a window (not break it) and they can sometimes see traps if they're obvious enough. They're pretty much smart zombies.
They're harder to kill, too. Most hollows will just kneel over and die if you shoot them, but it takes multiple shots to kill these things- And usually, you have to get them in the head to kill them.
The one she saw was about to die anyway. Veloxia had pretty much run its course and it was just laying there, waiting for death. It still had it's mask on, but it was chipped off from the nose down. Kash put a bullet in its head and they burnt the corpse where it died.
When she got her first gun. It was only a 22-Caliber Rifle, one of the old kind, too- But it could still shoot a pheasant. It was a very mild gun, with a soft kickback. She got it when she was eleven, but she'd learned how to shoot when she was only seven. Unfortunately, the gun was stolen when she was thirteen after another group of rebels raided their campsite. They started being more strict about night watch after that, as the the guy on duty had fallen asleep. Karia's mom gave her a machete later.
When she stepped on a landmine and lost her left leg. They were crossing through a fresh battlefield, and she was on her way to hop into one of the jeeps because they were getting nervous. She stepped on a mine only about 20 feet away from the jeep and pretty much shattered her knee. She got third-degree burns along her thigh and waist and lost a lot of blood.
Making BBQ sauce with Kayleigh, and how she hid the secret ingredient from Karia. Kayleigh promised to tell her the secret ingredient "When she was ready." (It's carrot juice.)
She looooves BBQ.
She keeps a journal on an old solar-tablet (iPad-looking thing as thin as a clipboard, but super strong. Built-in solar panel on the back that's used to charge the device.)
She reads the Bible and other scriptures
She's quite the survivalist and knows a ton of bushcraft
She has kinda slouchy posture
She inherited her Irish accent from her mother- Her father has an English accent
Her name means giver
