This was a hit rushed. I'm all out of creative juice, need to go to the old black dude behind McDonalds and buy some more. Until then, you get this.

Name: Alexander J. McDermott

Nickname / Alias: Zander, AJ.

Gender: Male

Age: 27

Height: 5'10

Weight: 190

Allegiance: Rebellion

Occupation: Zander is a Rifleman / Soldier in the Rebellion with minor knowledge of unlocking and engineering. Just don't get him near too many electrical sockets. Remember, kids, sticking your wet finger in those sockets doesn't grant super-human powers.

Appearance: Zander's Rebellion attire consists of a long-sleeve dark blue shirt with the sleeve rolled up to his elbows. He wears black khakis with lighter-gray shoes and a dark-brown belt/chest strap combo which looks like suspenders connected to his belt. Usually his light brown hair is styled in the front, though sometimes he doesn't bother to fix it up. He wears a faded silver crucifix on a chain of the same color around his neck and a black wristband on both of his wrists. Zander has dark blue eyes with a small bit of green sprinkled in with the blue coloring. He keeps a small stubble from his sideburns, around his chin and to the other side of his head. Zander keeps a small hand-held radio with his Rebel gear, along with a flashlight and a set of keys which open things Zander does no know about. Outside of the Rebel gear, Zander usually wears blue pants, a white undershirt, his normal black shoes and a gray sweater, or when it's warmer, just a light blazer.

Personality: Zander is pretty outgoing, usually likes to be friendly, but can be pretty judgmental sometimes. Others sometimes have a tendency to not see his way, like when he once said that he felt sorry for the Combine, yet he now keeps most of those thoughts to himself. He'll crack a joke or two once in awhile, but for the most part, his life is covered in grieving. The Combine killed what little family he had left - his wife and child - which he told no one about. Everyday it plagues his mind, so his cheery attitude and friendly demeanor is only a cover-up for the true man inside the shell. Sometimes, Zander will break out and grow furious for no apparent reason, begin to cry and just flat-out become angry, though he's learned to control it a bit in the previous days.

Likes: Strawberry ice-cream, animals, taking walks, Chinese food, a good drink once in awhile, the calm serenity of night, winter, and ever since his run in with a cereal box twelve years ago, Zander has always loved the phrase "Crunchy Bear". No one knows why outside of his mind.

Dislikes: "Soggy Snakes", the red-headed stepson cereal to "Crunchy Bear", people who see little evil in the world, Valley Girls, Breen's hairpiece ("Come on, are you serious? That can't be natural. I'd know if it's natural. I'd know, damnit."), seafood, sailing, and of course, as apparently every single rebel that will be made here will say, Zander dislikes - can you figure it out? - the Combine... 's Masks. They MUST chafe the wearer.

Brief History: As stated before, Zander doesn't talk about his past much, but when he does, he mentions the good times he spend with his father when he was a little boy, a father-figure was the only one present growing up. They'd go fishing, hiking, exercising together, and all around, Zander's father was a great and noble man who loved his sun like fish love the water. When the Combine came, Zander being 25 and married with one child at the time, both father, son and family were moved to City 17. Zander's child was murdered first, and soon after, his wife. Luckily, Zander's father has yet to be targeted, keeping immunity from the Combine by working for the MetroPolice as an assistant, a job that requires no street-work.

Anything Else: Zander carries a flashlight, ring of strange keys, picture of his family and bottle opener with him at all times. When in his Rebel gear, his firearms consist of a Heckler and Koch MP5 9mm Submachine Gun - Stock and Reflex Scope attachments - a HKP8 Combat Pistol, and a standard issue combat knife with "STEELE" carved into the handle.

RP Sample: If you'd like to make a call, please hang up and try again.
