  • Description

    * Looks
    She stands at 5’5” and is thin but fit from morning jogs. Her hair is shoulder length and dark brown in color, but she usually pulls it back and out of her face. Her eyes are green and she has freckles all over her face and body. She has one tattoo on the back of her neck of a koi fish.

    * Style
    Lily's style is practical and no-nonsense, favoring neutral tones and durable clothing. Before the apocalypse, she stuck to scrubs, jeans, and sweaters. Now, she wears cargo pants, thermal shirts, a utility jacket, and sturdy boots. Her dark hair is always pulled back, and she keeps a backpack with essentials close by. Her clothes are worn but well-maintained.

  • Quirks

    • Caffeine Addiction: Before the world ended, she ran on coffee. Now, she’s constantly looking for caffeine substitutes to stay alert.
    • Handwriting Obsession: She always kept neat, precise notes in her lab work. Now, she still records findings in a small notebook, as if clinging to the old world’s order.
    • Low-Key Fear of the Dark: She never admitted it before, but total darkness unsettles her, especially now with infected lurking. She always keeps a flashlight close.
    • Rare Soft Side: Occasionally, her old self slips through—like when she secretly checks on soldiers she claims to not care about or when she shares rations with someone having a bad day.

  • Motivations

    • Guilt: She couldn’t save her family, but maybe she can save someone.

    • Stubbornness: She refuses to accept that humanity is done for.

    • Curiosity: If there’s a way to understand the infection, she wants to find it.

  • Info

    Skills & Strengths:
    • Medical Knowledge: Even though she isn’t a full doctor, her expertise in diagnostics, lab work, and emergency care makes her invaluable. She can identify infections, test blood samples, and provide basic medical aid.
    • Sharp Memory: She retains details well—formulas, procedures, even overheard conversations. This helps her navigate crisis situations where resources are scarce.
    • Logical Under Pressure: While others panic, Lily compartmentalizes. She focuses on solutions, not emotions, which helps her stay alive.
    • Resourceful: Growing up in a military family, she learned some survival basics. While she’s not a soldier, she knows how to handle a gun (barely) and has a methodical approach to rationing supplies.

    Weaknesses & Flaws:
    • Emotionally Closed-Off: She refuses to get attached, which can make her seem cold or unapproachable. This keeps her from forming alliances that could help her survive long-term.
    • Physically Average: She’s not a fighter. She can run, hide, and shoot if needed, but she’s not winning any hand-to-hand combat situations.
    • Overworks Herself: She believes the more she works, the less she has to think about the world falling apart. She skips meals, sleeps too little, and burns herself out.
    • Trust Issues: She doesn’t blindly follow military orders, but she also doesn’t trust civilians easily. She assumes most people will act selfishly when desperate.
