SO

I finally (FINALLY) managed to read the whole thing right from the start and decided to join, as I now know how it works overall.



Name: Alistair Conventgarden Jr.

Age: 20

Gender: Male

Skills: Charming, Shrewd, Sly, Expertise in toxicology/chemistry

Appearance: Athletic, light blue eyes, dark hair, 5'11

Pre-apocalypse Life:

Conceived by Alistair Conventgarden Sr., an Englishman, and Silke Herzog, a young German maid, while the first was on his first trip around Europe once he finished his studies, Alistair's life was never normal. First of all, his father being the heir of an influential and strikingly wealthy businessman, and leaving a German woman pregnant while on a trip would have caused a scandal, had it not been that they -grudgingly- got married soon thereafter.

Alistair Sr. stayed in Munich to live with his new wife and took advantage of the situation to franchise his father's business there in Germany, which turned out to be a huge success. Once Alistair was born, his parents tried to fall in love with each other, but their huge differences impeded this. He learnt both perfect British English from his father and German from his mother.

In school, he never wanted to stand out too much, so he only had a few loyal friends and his grades, while decent, were never exceptional, despite him being able to ace everything if he wanted to.

He started hanging around the wrong crowd in his sophomore year and ended up consuming pot recreationally and having underground fights to piss his parents off, and well, to get attention from them, as they mostly ignored him. Since they never loved each other, Silke supported Alistair Sr. and she got to spend all the money she wanted to, and he got to have a beautiful wife who didn't complain. Besides, he spent most of his time working so they barely even saw each other. The underground fights didn't really get him grounded and only got Alistair Jr. a few meaningless lectures from his father; nonetheless, he continued doing them and saved up money on a secret account.

Alistair har everything he wanted except a family, so he decided to gather his secret money and his inheritamce to escape to study Toxicology & Pharmacology in the University of Miami, where he'd gotten an attractive scholarship. Once there, he noticed he was useless in many aspects. He had little to none experience in living on his own and working. The only things he could do were playing the piano, making some chemical reactions, getting laid and beating someone up.

The latter was the only one that helped him once the apocalypse started.

Other: Even though he is extremely smart and cunning, he has almost no street smarts, and hasn't killed anybody yet. He learned his chemistry abilities from a High School teacher who noticed his potential and decided to gove him advanced particular classes in toxicology for two years back in Germany. He also got better at this from studying the actual career two years in Miami before the apocalypse.
