Name: Emile

Age: 19

Occupation: Elementary Student

Weapon of Choice: Katana or Assault Rifle

Personality: Emile is a strong man, emotionally and psycially. He tends to be reserved and not talk to others, but if they're making a major decision, that's when he'll speak up. Since he has been surviving since he was a kid, he is no stranger to battle, and likes to be on the front lines. He likes to help out, even if he's not helpful in that situation. When the group is relaxing, or he's by himself, he likes to play the guitar, because it helps his nerves.

Backstory:  Originially from Salt Lake City, Utah, Emile was only a young kid when the apocalypse came, he didn't have much of a childhood, and he can't remember anything from it anyways. He was on vacation to travel the west coast with his parents and sisters when the apocalypse came. Being the outsiders, his family wasn't trusted, and was discriminated against in their group. They were left behind eventually, and they survived in a construction site for a while, although they didn't know how long. There, they were at peace. There was five of them in total, and eventually more survivors joined them, one of them who played the guitar, a girl named, Maggie, the same one Emile has today.

Eventually, everything went downhill. Fewer and fewer people started returning from supply runs, and a war against a group of other survivors killed more than half of his group, his parents included. Within three months, his group of 33 went to 13. Eventually, his sisters taught him how to shoot, and use a katana, which he proved to be good at both, even though he lost one of his pinkies from the katana. His group started to seperate, leaving Emile, his sisters, Maggie, and another guy who took a liking to his sister.

The five were on the road for a while, being able to scavenge an RV, so there was enough room for them all. Emile, being 14 now, liked to be the protector, being the main defender while the older members scavenged for gasoline or food. Emile showed signs on depression and anger, and Maggie was the first one to notice it. She taught him a nice way to get out his anger, by playing the guitar. One day, Emile and his oldest sister were at a gas station, loading up on gas, when she was bitten by a zombie. Emile's sister's last wish was that he wouldn't "let the world win" and that he wouldn't "change for the worst". Emile left her, taking her words to heart.

The remaining four traveled all along the west coast, hoping to find some kind of safe-haven so they didn't have to worry anymore. When Emile was 16, his group was attacked by a herd, and his sister and her boyfriend got seperated from the group, leaving him and Maggie. Emile and Maggie both survived the attack, Emile only grabbing his katana, a pistol, and the suitcase with the guitar. Maggie eventually died, leaving Emile alone for a while.
