Name: 'Andy Jones'.

Age: 29

Profession: Failed Script Writer/Film Producer.

Personality: Andy is a very 'easy' kinda' gal. As in 'Easy'- I mean, that she has always been too easily impressed and a bit too trusting of people. This has caused her to be taken advantage of by some people through-out her years.

Although she is a very vunerable, she is a strong woman. She can work hard, and can be a lot of use since her physique is quite above average. And, even though she does have her 'moments'- Andy is also very strong emotionally, meaning she can usually get over something traumatic very quickly.

Besides' all of that, she is a very creative and studious character. She loves to write- whether it is a short story, a novel, a script, or a poem. She also has a good sense of humor which can usually cheer up a person who is down in the dumps.

Backstory: Born in a small, hick town in the middle-of-nowhere. Andy, was raised on a farm with an older sister, and two younger brothers. She hated farmyard animals. She didn't like feeding them, or cleaning up after them, or- anything!

But, she did what her parents' told her to do and just went with it. When she got some spare time, in-between farm work and school work, she'd sit in her room and write whatever came to mind. She loved coming up with little stories and small sonnets- she found it extremely enjoyable.

When she was around twelve-ish, her father was diagnosed with a form of cancer. He died after six months of having the fatal illness. It took a major toll on her and her family, especially her mother who went into a down-ward spiral of depression.

It was up to her older sister, Landra, to look after the farm. But, Landra was quite a wild child- so she'd sometimes skip out on her duties to go drink with some friends or hook up with a fella' or two. Andy couldn't take the pressure, of having more and more farm duties along with her mother becoming mentally ill, on her shoulders.

So- she started saving up every bit of money she got an' by the time she was twenty-two, Andy bought a plane ticket to the big city and left the farm as soon as she could. When she got off the plane, she bunked with a roommate in a shitty loft. But, as long as she had a bed, a desk, and some pen an' paper she was happy.

Over the next several years; Andy tried desperately to try and get her scripts an' stories published or made into a box office hit, but, that never happened. It was just 'deny' after 'deny'. The major publishers/film studios in the city wanted to remake classics and make a ton of sequals, nobody wanted an original idea anymore...

So, Andy just got a job at a local bookstore. It brang in some money, which she was glad about- but, she was never really happy there. She had a few boyfriends, and one or two girlfriends- but, none of those relationships ever worked out for her

She just felt like a zombie (lol), who did nothing but wander aimlessly- trying to find a purpose in life. She sometimes thought of going back to the farm, since she had heard that her mother was better and that her sister had calmed down- but, she never acted on it.

At twenty-nine, when the first reports of the so-called 'apocalypse' came through, Andy was approached by a flim crew who wanted her with them. She was excited, because this could be her big break- but, she soon found out that she wasn't apart of the crew, but, apart of a group who were to be documented through-out the apocalypse.

She felt a little disappointed and was about to leave to go home and be with her family, but, she had a strange urge to stick with these guys'. So, 'ere she is.
