Character/Values:
(before apocalypse) Incredably in love with nature and the idea of living, and as a human being returing to the natural world. Heavily disliked the idea of society and authority (now that society is gone, he very much is in doubt of these ideals), in his free time he would go out on very long rucks out in the wilderness, often times camping with friends and watching movies on small, portable tvs.
Highly values deep, hostest friendships and relationships you intentionally build with people.
Highly values the idea of personal freedom and free will, he believes modern society intentionally raises people without this 'truth' and makes them sick.
Has survival skills to comfortably live in the wilderness for a time during milder seasons (3-6 months depending on winter's arrival) will not likely be able to survive winter alone.
Lost on of his friends to the 2nd outbreak when the friend was caught offguard in the city, in mourning for him, can't find his other camping friends and hopes they're out there somewhere.
Idealistic view of the world is severly tested by apocolypse, misses the life of cities.
