HISTORY BEFORE: Anastasia was adopted, she has no idea who her parents were. They were most likely druggies, leaving baby Anastasia all alone. During these early and stressful years of her life she went through several foster homes. No one kept her very long because they found her to be an odd child. She prefered to play alone with her toys, and rarely spoke at all. She always separated herself from other children, and she learned to entertain herself and be alone. Eventually she realized that she could use her talent of reading people to make some extra cash when she became a teenager. Poker was an excellent way to do this. One night she finally left and went out on her own. She struggled for a while, but she was tough and resilient enough to make it. Anastasia is a survivor and she never gave up. She moved around a lot, because she quickly made enemies wherever she went. People did not take kindly to losing all of their money in a poker game, or having their things stolen when she was around. She worked a lot of jobs, and had several aliases. Eventually she found her way to L.A and got a job as a waitress. It was something she had done a thousand times, and it was an easy job and she usually does fairly well on tips. It was there that a talent agent ran into her. He recognized how beautiful she was, and wanted to get to know her better. He offered her a small role in a movie, and she took it deciding it would be easy cash.
Five years later, after one thing lead to another she found herself to be a famous young actress. She was a household name. She got work consistently. She did a lot of romance comedies where she always played a close friend to the couple. After being recognized for her comedic talent it opened doors for comedies, and eventually action movies. She became a big name after doing a movie trilogy about Disney princess going bad. Finally, she found a home on primetime television in the lead role. She played a young woman lost in a dystopian land. After four seasons, it was still a hit. For her role she had to actually learn to use a bow and arrow and a cross bow for her character.
DURING APOCALYPSE: Anastasia had stopped going out a long time ago. People wanted to take her picture, have her sign something, or propose marriage. She hated it! Just because she had been in a movie or two, everyone thought they knew her. They did not, no one did. She was sipping her coffee, watching re-runs of old TV shows when the announcement interrupted. She avoided the news like the plague; only by force did she find out what was happening in the world. They were calling them zombies, living dead walking the streets. At first, she thought it was some prank. Against her better judgment, curiosity got the better of her. She jumped in her car, and went out to see for herself. It was worse than the news had described. The streets were crowed with the dead, and littered with the dying. It was simple to Anastasia, the world was ending. She had never been very religious, but she felt it, they were being punished. She floored the pedal, and sped home. She packed what she needed, and left. She had no family, and the only people who she considered friends were impossible to reach with the phone lines down. She hit a few with her car on accident, but when she realized that they were just popping back up and chasing her she started aiming for them. One thing she did make sure to pack was her cross bow, her bow, and arrows. They were for her to practice with when not on the set, she was expected to look professional on screen. However, now they could mean the difference between life and death. Eventually the gas in her car ran out, and she was forced to ditch the car and run. With nothing more then a backpack full of basic stuff, she had not felt so comfortable since before becoming a star. Being famous was not what she was cut out for. Being on the run, just felt right.
ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE: FROM MONAWhen the shit hit the fan, for lack of a better term, Mona gunned up and left. She was not going to stick around in the big city only to become food for one of those ‘sick’ people. It was like suddenly everyone was a cannibal, could you even catch cannibalism? Was it airborne, like the flu? Mona did not much care what it was, as long as she did not have it. Mona lived like a soldier, and did not have much in the way of material items. Aside from 70 pairs of shoes, and designer clothes in her walk in closet. Yes she was rich, yes she liked fabulous cashmere clothes, yes she could definitely live without them. Mona had been on the run several times, it was just part of the job. She had money, cash money. Jewelry, and cigarettes all for bartering purposes. The sweet lady with the kind face had said during the early morning news that everything was going to be fine. Everyone just needed to stay at home and board up their doors. Mona understood it as…”Everyone please stay calm. The world is coming to an end, but we do not want to start a country wide panic.” So Mona did what she did best. Stay calm.
She packed lightly, only grabbing essentials. Most of the essentials being weapons of course. Mona was smart, beautiful and dangerous, but above all else, she was a survivor. Mona left her home later that evening, figuring her best chance to get out of the city would be at night. She was comfortable in the dark; it was when she did most of her work. She realized that if she stayed quiet and out of site, those ‘sick’ people did not seem to notice her. Her endurance paid off, and by sunrise she was outside the city. She hotwired an old truck, that was much noisier then she had anticipated it to be. It was her best option considering it had a full tank of gas. If it happened to break down she knew she could fix the old Ford, were as she had no idea what to do with one of those fancy, fast imported cars.
Once she hit the deserted road, she floored the pedal. Best to get as far away from other people as possible. She highly doubted a cop would stop her anyways. Not that he would survive the encounter long enough to give her a ticket to begin with. Mona was used to being all alone, and she took little notice of it. Her mother had disappeared when she was young, and her father had died a few years ago. She was an only child, with no other relatives to speak of. The only people she kept in close contact with was a few friends of her father. She had no doubt they had all survived and were no doubt in bunkers somewhere watching old football games and porn. She really did love those guys.
PLANS: She will be a usefull member of the team. She can defend herself, and she is good at fixing things. If people can get past the fact that she is a celebrity and just see her as another survivor.
