Apparel & Accessories

When it comes to gear, Abram is always prepared for the worst. He wears a durable, weathered leather jacket that has seen better days but still provides protection from the elements and minor attacks. Beneath it, he typically sports a simple, fitted shirt made from a breathable, moisture-wicking fabric—something practical for long days on the move.
 
His pants are reinforced cargo-style, with plenty of pockets for carrying essential gear, and they’re tucked into sturdy, worn-in boots that have carried him through countless miles of rough terrain. Abram’s boots are scuffed and scratched, with the soles clearly showing the wear and tear of his nomadic lifestyle.
 
Abram’s most distinctive piece of gear is a modified tactical belt, equipped with holsters and sheaths for his weapons. He carries a reliable, well-maintained handgun on his right hip and a combat knife on his left. He also has a multi-tool and several pouches for ammunition, a first-aid kit, and other survival necessities. Across his back, he slings a lightweight, collapsible crossbow—perfect for silent takedowns and hunting game.

Personal history

Detective Abram St. Christopher once worked closely with former police officer Zoe Matthews before the apocalypse struck. Zoe was part of the Detroit police task force that assisted Abram on a high-stakes drug bust and trained the team for tactical combat. Their partnership was strong, but when the operation went south, Zoe’s partner was tragically killed in the crossfire. Devastated, Zoe turned to Abram for support, and during this time, her feelings for him grew. Despite his feelings for her, Abram’s overwhelming guilt over the failed bust and the death of her partner created a rift between them, and they eventually drifted apart.
 
When the apocalypse hit, they were separated, both unsure of the other’s fate. However, Abram St. Christopher was forced to become a bounty hunter and had to join a faction led by his former confidential informant (CI). As a bounty hunter, with his tactical combat skills from working with the Detroit Task Force during his days as a detective, he was well-trained in survival and highly proficient.
 
One day, he was tasked with capturing a woman from Haven, unaware of her identity. It wasn’t until he tracked her down on a solo supply run, struggling with her drug addiction, that he realized the target was Zoe Matthews, his former partner from the Detroit police force. The two fought initially, but during the skirmish, Zoe recognized a tactical move they had both trained in together and she realized it was Abram, they both stopped mid-fight.
 
After catching up, Abram did not reveal the faction he worked for but decided to help Zoe finish her supply run instead of completing his mission. Ultimately, he faked his own death, deserted the faction, and joined Zoe who then convinced Haven’s leader to accept him into their group. He was shocked and relieved to discover that Zoe had survived and had risen to become the head of security and weapons training.
 
The reunion is bittersweet—Zoe initially harbors resentment toward Abram, still haunted by the past, but deep down, she’s also glad he’s alive. As they navigate the harsh realities of their new world, their unresolved feelings for each other resurface, but the challenges of survival test their relationship at every turn.

Vices & Personality flaws

Distrust and Paranoia
Abram is constantly on edge, suspecting that danger lurks around every corner. His experiences with betrayal have made him hyper-vigilant, often interpreting benign actions as potential threats. He frequently second-guesses the intentions of others, especially newcomers or those who act suspiciously. He’s more likely to take extra precautions, even when others might consider them unnecessary.
 
He might become increasingly paranoid and distrustful of those around him. This could strain his relationships within the group, especially with Zoe, as he grapples with the fear that anyone could betray him.
 
Overcompensation
In an attempt to prove his loyalty, Abram might volunteer for the most dangerous missions. This behavior can put him at unnecessary risk, leading to potential injuries or failure. He might also push himself to be the first to act in crisis situations, hoping to shield others from harm and atone for past failures.
 
The Information
Related to Zoe involvement in a high-stakes drug bust where her partner was killed. Specifically, it involved details about her role and actions during the operation, which, if exposed, could have put her life in danger and damaged her reputation. Abram St. Christopher sacrificed his career and the safety of his CI to protect Zoe from this fallout. If this information had become public, it could have revealed her connection to the failed bust and potentially put her at risk from the gang involved.
 
The Secret:
Abram had a Confidential Informant (CI) who was deeply embedded in the gang they were targeting. The CI, fearing for his life after the failed bust, secretly made a deal with the gang leader right after the operation went south. To spare himself, the CI agreed to take the fall, betray Abram and turn over critical information about the police investigation, which led to the gang leader escaping and the whole operation crumbling. The gang leader, in return, marked Abram as a traitor to both sides—a man with no allegiance—making him a target not only for the law but for the criminal underworld as well. When the bust went south, Abram had to choose between saving Zoe and her partner or protecting the CI’s cover to ensure a chance to take down the gang leader in the future.
Abram chose to protect Zoe, pulling her out of harm’s way, which resulted in her partner being killed and the gang leader escaping. The CI’s cover was blown, and to save face and avoid being killed by the gang, the CI made a deal with the gang leader, which involved betraying Abram. This betrayal ensured that Abram’s career would be tainted and that the CI would rise in power within the gang.
 
The CI thinks Abram is dead, still thinks he is a deserter.
 
The Haven Group, and Zoe have no idea that Abram was a bounty hunter working for the CI that wants her killed.
 
Abram does not know Zoe has a drug addiction.
 
The Twist
The CI’s betrayal didn’t stop there. Knowing that Abram had protected Zoe during the bust, the CI harbored a deep grudge, blaming Zoe for the ruin of his life. As part of his twisted revenge, he manipulated events in the post-apocalyptic world to ensure that Abram’s guilt over Zoe’s partner’s death would fester. The CI now leads a dangerous faction and has marked Abram as faction deserter, just as he’s marked Zoe. His ultimate plan is to destroy them both—pitting them against each other, or forcing them to face their darkest regrets together.

Personality Quirks

Hyper-Vigilance
Abram often takes the first watch during group rests, meticulously checking perimeters and setting traps. He rarely sleeps soundly, always alert for potential threats. He might question others’ decisions or suggest more extreme precautions, even when they seem unnecessary to the rest of the group
 
Impulsive
Abram sometimes acts on impulse, especially when his emotions are running high. This can lead to reckless decisions, putting himself and others in danger.
