HISTORY BEFORE:
Aaron grew up in Kansas City, he was relatively normal, raised by a single mother, he had a brother and a sister, who he had to raise because his mother was never home; she worked three jobs just to keep them afloat. He went to school all the way up to 10th grade, then he dropped out and started getting into drugs, and at that time his Mother met a man, who was an alcoholic. He still looked after his siblings, but one day he fought his mothers boyfriend for getting to aggressive with his mother. Beating him badly he left, leaving his brother Cameron and sister Kasie behind, though at this point in time they were basically grown, they didn't need him anymore.
At the age of 18 Aaron had met a girl, they dated for a few months, and partied their time away. One day they were partying at his girlfriends cousins house, they had gotten drunk and Aaron decided to get in the car to go pick up a friend in need. On his way there he got stopped by the police and went to jail for a D.U.I. He spent 2 weeks in jail, got bonded out and never went back, when he got out he went and started the same stuff: Drugs, Alcohol, causing trouble. A few weeks later he was with his girlfriend, they had a party in a motel room, they had some friends come over until the motel clerk told them to leave, in that time his girlfriend had taken some pills. She went to sleep, and so did he, not knowing she had taken so many.
Aaron had skipped bond on his D.U.I, and had gotten his door kicked in when he woke up to see what it was he saw that he had a gun in his face, and his girlfriend had died from an overdose, he felt the skin and it was colder than ice, he couldn't believe it. They arrested him and took him to jail, he talked to a detective for 20 hours while on 24 hour hold. They tried to have him charged for her death, but let him go when they realized it wasn't his fault. He went to her funeral and was blamed by her family for her death, he finally decided to quit doing what he was doing, and get straight.
He moved back in with his Mother, and started on getting his GED so he could join the military. Still having to deal with his mothers drunk boyfriend he wasn't having an easy time, and his siblings moved in with their father, so they were alone together a lot. They fought all the time, until Aaron snapped on him and beat him within an inch of his life, again he had to leave, but this time it wasn't for nothing. He went to a recruiter the next day, with his GED completion papers, got a waiver and went to the military.
He wanted to become an Army Ranger, but with his D.U.I. He couldn't until he served two years. He went to Airborne school and became Airborne Infantry, he excelled in all aspects they had to offer, marksmanship, modern Army combatives, and finally Ranger School. He was sent to Fort Benning for training. He flew through the Ranger assessment program and became apart of the 75th Ranger Regiment, they trained him advanced medical skills, how to speak multiple languages, how to survive in the desert, the forest, you name it. He got his Ranger tab at the age of 21.
Right after that he was sent overseas to Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, he did a tour and went to see his mom after. On his second tour he went to do a mission with his unit in Iran. He was to stop a terrorist organization from destroying an Embassy before they even started the attack, it was a failure, his whole unit was killed but him, when he got back he was given a psychological evaluation, and got a psychological discharge and was diagnosed with PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder).
DURING APOCALYPSE:
After his discharge from the Army, he went home, his mother had broke up with her boyfriend and moved to a small town south of Kansas City. He was happy to be home, but it didn't last. The outbreak came quickly, he had to kill his mother after being bitten by a Zombie. He left the town he was in in a rage, but instead of trying to kill every single zombie he fled, he went to check and see if any of his other family had lived.
He traveled to Kansas City to find his brother, but realized that was a mistake when he saw the city overran with the undead and there was no way he would be able to track him down, he didn't want to admit it, but he assumed he was already dead. He went to Mark Twain National Forest, and went to see if he could find other survivors on his way there. He found no one on his way there.
Before he made it to the forest he had gotten stuck in the town of Rolla. He had found a survivor a guy named Eugene, a Naval Officer, Aaron saved him from being eaten by his own son, or atleast he thought he did, he didn't realize that he was bitten, as the men fled the town Eugene turned and tried attacking him, after being wrestled to the ground and almost being bitten he stabbed him with a large shard of glass, and smashed his head in with a rock. After that he traveled looking for survivors, but to no avail. Now he roams the country looking for people, but its only been 3 weeks, and he has had no luck.
ROLEPLAY EXAMPLE:The dead of night. Arley could feel the cold air attack his lungs, he was hiding from a bounty hunter. He could hear the man getting closer.
The man walked by Arley but didn't notice him, he used that to his advantage. He could see his breath and the ice sickles on the leaves. He moved following the man quietly, taking out his dagger Arley covered his mouth and slit the mans throat. He wasn't done, he knew there would be more. He was an assassin and had gotten caught, thought he avoided death, he was on the run. He ran through the woods until he found their camp, he decides to kill them...quietly. He smirked and proceeded into the camp. There were only three tents and two of the men where outside, the third was dead. He had twin daggers and unsheathed them both. He snuck up until he could throw them. One saw him as he was sneaking and they drew their swords.
He threw a dagger and killed one of the men. The other swung his sword at his head, Arley ducked and tripped him as he stood he stabbed him in his heart. Then he ran into the dead of night. He was an enemy of the king, but no one knew his face except the guards. But it wouldn't long until he was on wanted posters. As he got back to town he was stopped by a guard. He was recognized instantly.
"Oi! Stop," the man yelled. He didn't run or speak. The man tried to arrest him but was thrown to the ground. Arley drew his blades and waited for the guards. They came in a group of 6 and they attacked. He blocked and parried multiple strikes, and with unbelievable grace he struck. Hitting a guard in the throat, thr blood got all over his armor. "You ready!" Screamed Arley. He would block and attack killing two guards. He dodged a down slash quickly running back into the woods. They chased him down. He ran to where he couldn't hear them anymore. He hoped he could find safety somewhere.
