*CHARACTER 1
Name: Lola Gleisner; sometimes referred to as "Doctor Gleisner," 'Doctor' being used more as a rank than an actuality in this case.
Age: 39
Looks: Lola stands at 5' 8" with a thin build. Her muzzle, as well as most of her face, is black; including her long, messy mohawk that falls towards the left side of her head, and continues down the length of her neck. Around her neck, she wears a sterling chain neckless with a long cylindrical whistle pendant which looks somewhat ornamental. The rest of her face and neck are varying shades of tan. Her tail is naturally short, and isn't docked. The right side of her face is covered in severe burn scars and patchy fur; similar scars are also present on the right side of her neck and chest. Most of her right ear is crudely hacked away and heavily scarred with a similarly severe hack scar that starts at her right nostril and ends at the center of her chin. Also, her left pointer and thumb are amputated at the joint.
Lola's eyes are hidden behind a pair of circular sunglasses that she's almost never seen without; being mostly blind (she can make out light, sometimes colors and objects), she carries a simplistic black cane that sheaths a 15" blade (Her blindness, as well as her scars, are all due to a peacekeeping op gone wrong. While working as a diplomat; she was captured, held hostage, and tortured by an outside group). Regardless of the apocalypse, she dresses rather professionally; wearing a white long-sleeved blouse that's dirtied with washed-out blood stains and other varying blemishes in the fabric. The blouse is tucked into a black pencil skirt, coupled with black 4" heels that push her height closer to six foot; an impractical outfit for an impractical person that's described by her peers as a stubborn and dangerous visionary with poor insight.
Species: Spotted Hyena
History: Lola, much like many of her peers, was employed by the hospital prior to the fall. Where she worked as a therapist at the mental healthcare facility located north east of the hospital, just beyond its newly found walls. Currently the mental healthcare building, while still standing strong, is plundered and goes generally unutilized. During the formation of the hospital colony, Lola conspired against Robby in attempt to establish her own policies. She was fearlessly outspoken, but her push for authority was viewed by most of the group as treacherous, and her ideas were seen as unrealistic. Her attempt failed, but her life was spared. While the true reason remains unknown, she was likely spared due to the fact that she had a fallowing, and her death might have sparked a divide amongst the group, or that her boldness was better off being integrated rather than snuffed.
In current times, Lola operates out of the Englewood Research Center north of the hospital, where she manages outpost operations via radio tower, which makes her relevant regarding trade and diplomacy issues. She also maintains a newly proven ammo recycling station where specific empty shells are repacked, and has intention to start work on other renewable resources and expansions, like alternative fuel and the seeding of a new colony (the Old Town Hall Outpost being the most suitable candidate). Lola and her loyalists do not function independently of the hospital; instead, they're viewed as a distinct group of the same faction. Lola also filters all her ideas and concerns through Robby and is mostly reliant on the hospital for food and supplies.
*CHARACTER 2
Name: Isaac; 'Dogo' is a common nickname.
Age: 30
Looks: Isaac is six feet of pure muscle; with his short, cropped ears, a scar on his left brow, and an entirely white, short fur coat with no markings. He has deep brown eyes, solid stance and dauntingly stoic gaze, with his tail docked short with his hair buzzed even shorter. He wears a light olive drab, double breasted Romanian military trench coat with an olive drab molle combat vest overtop. The vest is loaded out with a canteen bag, utility pouch, knife sheath, radio pouch and an anglehead military grade flashlight clipped to the chest. He wears a gasmask bag at his left with the strap slung over his right shoulder, a 50rd shotgun shell bandolier slung over his left shoulder, a pair of binoculars and round motorcycle goggles around his neck, and an olive drab rucksack on his back. He also wears olive drab trousers that are tucked into a pair of broken-in jack boots. Isaac is equipped with a Mossberg 590 w/solid stock which he keeps slung over his right shoulder with a 2-point sling.
Species: Dogo Argentino
History: Prior to the apocalypse, Isaac was Kurt's drinking buddy and colleague. Both of which were on the road doing fabrication work at Ventura Laboratories. While they were only buddies back then, the struggles of the new world brought them together as brothers. Early on after the downfall, Isaac became politically involved in the organization of the hospital clan where he wholeheartedly backed Lola with her push for power, while Kurt remained completely indifferent. After Lola's movement fell through, Isaac made it his personal mission to organize and train Lola's advocates, which later gave birth to a small militia that pledged full allegiance to Lola. The militia was commonly referred to as Lola's 'SS'. Which became a name and identity they happily adopted.
Fallowing Lola's misfortune with a peacekeeping mission that left her blind and two of her SS members dead, Isaac stepped up to become her personal assistant.
(So, these are the characters. Err, nazi cannibals! Yee! Anywho, I was thinking that we could start the cutaway 30min post-skirmish, where things are just starting to calm down and the storm has set in. Let me know if everything sounds kosher. I had a long day at work, so I'll post the starter tomorrow.)
