Here's one more:

Name: Alec

Age: 15-16; unspecified

Gender: male

Weapons: Riot shield (mounted to his amputated arm), Glock 17, crowbar.

Personality: Alec is a good natured teenager; undeniably mature for his age. He has the best intentions for the people he cares about, but also has the "I can't save everyone" mentality. He is loyal to his friends, sings when he is upset as a coping mechanism, and makes many jokes. He is lighthearted, and an optimistic-realist (seeing the best outcome for real situations)

Backstory: Before the apocalypse he was a singer who occasionally busked on the street. He came from a well-off family. In the beginning of the apocalypse, he lost his family and fled his school with his friends. Sometime later, Alec was fleeing infected in a hotel with his three highschool  bandmates, one of which was the girl he liked  ( their names are: "Lucky", Brendon, and Rachel). When they got cornered, Alec made the split-second desicion to sacrifice himself so they could escape. He told Rachel how he felt about her and led the infected away, but in the process was bitten in the hand. After jumping out of a third floor window and miraculously landing on a truck, he flees the hotel and amputates his hand, cauterizing the stump. He manages to survive. He still searches for his friends, whom he is confident he will find.

Actor: Jeremy Marinas

Description: Alec is 5' 10", fit and athletic. Asian-American. Is missing his left hand (which he was forced to amputate)

Additional: He can sing. He found the riot shield at a fallen police barricade and mounted it to his arm and uses it as protection. He has terrible aim with his pistol. He is constantly searching for his friends, and tags walls everywhere he goes with spraypainted messages for them.
