TMA characters

Why are They Here?

After being sent by Elias (who has joint control with Jonah) to monitor the Sanctuary since they're close to completing a ritual, they spend plenty of time at the sermons and with the higher-ups such as Jonah or Sarah. They find themselves thrust into positions they can't handle before they can refuse.

Tim Stoker: Spiral - leader of Spiral division

Daisy Tonner: Hunt - "guard"

IDV characters

Why are They Here?

After the start of the zombie apocalypse, Melly found herself in a sticky situation. Of course, she had a gun, but no other protection. While wandering into the main room, assuming there were no other survivors, she had her guard down. When she spotted Norton eating at Annie's desecrated corpse, she held her pistol high, aiming at his head. Could she really do this? It wasn't like she had much of a choice. But she shook, missing and hitting him in the shoulder instead. When it was discovered that part of his brain was still functioning and he could talk, the entomologist calmed down and tried to take him outside. She'd just have to take extra precautions. It wasn't too long, however, until she ran into a woman dressed in heavy layers. Her hand was on her gun, ready to shoot in case it was a zombie, but of course not. Despite that, however, Norton, who felt threatened by the spear on her back, attempted to lunge. An armed Jonah came forward, pointing one at Norton and one at Melly. Communication occurred, and Melly is allowed in on certain circumstances.

TL;DR; Norton is a half-conscious zombie, Melly narrowly missed his head, and they went outside in search of supplies. They found Jonah and Sarah, being taken into the Sanctuary long before the archival staff.

Melly Plinius: Corruption - ordinary member

Norton Campbell: Buried (zombie) - ordinary member

Ganji Gupta: Slaughter - ambassador of the Slaughter division

his character isn't too in-depth in the AU yet, sorry about that

Naib Subedar: Web - not associated with cult

Nortnaib, nortmelly, ganjinort

can you tell I like shipping norton?

that's about it :3 there's another section for Percy Jackson, but that's a lot of lore that i don't think is fit for this post? so. of course, there's a lot more to it, but this is just the characters and stuff . yay
