Message: <blockquote data-quote="Belen" data-source="post: 1773928" data-attributes="member: 1405">Fallen Earth CharactersFallen Earth Characters#1: Magdalene O’Donnell (taken) Former Jesuit Priestess- Even though she took advantage of the third reformation to become a priest, she has a deep love for the old faith. She is an avid fan of both ancient history an ancient weapons. She studied for the priesthood in the Vatican after college. Even though she had been an amateur fencing champion while at UNC-Chapel Hill, she learned more than a few deadly maneuvers from the elite Swiss Guards. She returned to North Carolina a few weeks before the Fall just shy of becoming a full priest. Now, she wears the garb of a priest and a warrior, praying to find a path on this Fallen Earth. (NOTE: This character has been taken by Alenda/ Christy.) She carries several ancient daggers and a Damascus-steel rapier.#2: Major Beth Guthrie- The first lady to win a Medal of Honor for Combat and the youngest Major in USMC history at 25. Her platoon held a pass for five days against an entire brigade, allowing the Marine Corps to cut off and decimate an entire Chinese Mechanized battalion and ending the US-Chinese War of 2035. Stationed at Camp Lejeune, she was leading a relief expedition in Asheville when the final meteor hit the Atlantic. Most of her company deserted after Lejeune was destroyed and she made her way to Raleigh to find her parents. She is tough and determined, but has a way of making people feel at ease. She is a graduate of NC State. She carries an old-style M-16 with an M80 attached, a colt .45, and a combat utility knife.#3: Matt Willis- Park Ranger- A member of the US Forestry services, he was fighting for the right to see his child just before the Fall. He is a quiet, intense man who is searching for his ex-wife and young daughter. He is both a great hunter and tracker and has survived where many others have died. A family man without a family, he will do anything to find his loved ones. He tends to relate more to wild creatures, but he does like people and will help where he can. He carries a hatchet, bowie knife and a hunting rifle.#4: Steve Bissette (Doc Holiday reborn?) - He has just completed his residency at Duke when Fall began. A Durham gang burned down the Duke hospital while he was away and his fiancé and friends died in the fire. He proceeded to hunt down the gang using his father’s vintage colt revolvers (with matching fast draw holsters.) Other than the colts, he carries a wicked serrated blade from one of the gang members he’s hunted.#5: Lt. Tom (Skip) Duncan- This rowdy Texan served as a test pilot for the USAF and had been chosen to join the newly established United States Space Navy before the fall.  He was stationed at Seymour Johnson AFB in Goldsboro in time for the final meteor impact and flew a group of survivors out of the base just before it washed away.  Tom was captured by the Final Judgment for a brief time and some people can still see a haunted look around his eyes from time to time.  His favored weapon is a Glock 17 and he carries a wicked combat utility knife in his boot.#6: Miguel Calderon (taken by Henry): Before the fall, Miguel was an accomplished hacker, mechanic, cat burglar and capoeira fanatic.  After the fall, however, his natural intelligence and gift for securing even the most difficult to obtain basic needs made him a hero.  At the Shearon Harris Nuclear power plant, his natural gift with chemistry and mechanics made him a true member of the team.  He has trained a number of people in capoeira and while still a bit rough around the edges, remains dedicated to the small community.  Miguel prefers to get close to his foes and use his natural weapons, although he carries around a 10 gauge scattergun, just in case.#7: Devlin Steele- He was on his way to becoming the most famous actor in the 21st century.  He danced like Fred Astaire and could act like Jimmy Stewart or Tom Cruise.  He was visiting his family in Boone when the fall began.  Now Devlin acts as spy and negotiator.  He even tells people that he is the modern day James Bond.  He has made dozens of trips into Final Judgment territory and refuses to speak about it no matter what people offer for the information.</blockquote>
