Throw your character up in here also.
Mine Follows:
Name: Amos Gaines
Race: Human / Caucasion
Class: Rogue/Survivor/Athlete
Profession: Jack of all trades and able to learn and adapt quickly.
Amos is a Bayou rat. No home per say and no family except for relatives in other states that he never sees the quiet guy in any group that he is in. He dosnt have alot to say but when he does it typically is worth hearing, even if its hard to listen to what a 17 year old swamp rat has to say. He is an exceptional hunter and has skills in many forms of hunting equipment, usually opting to use his Compound Bow because money is rare with him and bullets cost money. He does as well own a Springfield XD 40 that is on his person at all times, as well as a Remington 870 Express shotgun purchased at Wal Mart. He has a rifle as well however ammunition for old world war 2 guns is very expensive, it is a 6.5x55 Sweedish Mauser.
Skilled at tracking and knowledge of game animals makes Amos a very strong hunter. He is as well incredibly patient knowing that it is essential in order to take game animals cleanly.
Amos has a well above average work ethic and tends to over exert himself in order to make sure the job is done right. For this reason he exhibits exceptional endurance. As well, he will never leave a job undone.
All in all if you can find a way to get the young man to open up, he can and will be a worthwhile friend and ally.
