Rhines, Michelle

Player Name: Michelle

Character Name: Michelle Rhines

Age: 23

Gender: Female

Ethnicity: Caucasian

Appearance: Michelle stands at about average height with a toned build. She likes to keep herself in shape because she never knows when it'll come in handy. She has long, dark brown hair, that even while kept in a braid passes below her waist line. Her eyes are a beautiful pale green that her mother once said could reach into anyone's soul and see what they were feeling. Normally she wears a beloved black leather jacket, white tank top, and loose fitting jeans and with ankle high boots that have been worn in so they are comfortable and easy to run in but still kept in good condition. She usually carries a hand gun of any kind. Anything she can pick up along the way.

Personality: 
Michelle is normally as sweet as can be and tries to keep in high spirits. That is, until the times comes for her to get serious. She's protective of the ones she cares about and very leery when it comes to strangers. Since the incident she hasn't let anyone get very close to her in case one day they would be taken. Confrontation doesn't really bother her, she's the type that would rather work problems out then let them simmer and eventually erupt into chaos. 

History: 
Right after Michelle had graduated High school she started work for her father at his garage. From a young age she'd worked on cars with him and learned everything she could. She didn't want to become the typical woman who knew nothing about engines and couldn't fix her own truck. When she wasn't working with her father, she was working at the local gun range. Over the years they'd taught her just about everything she wanted and needed to know about guns. They all teased her for being a chick who did manly things.

When the outbreak occurred she'd been working at the garage alone. Her brother, Jaden had taken her dad to the store to get dinner for that night. When her brother pulled up in her truck, alone, looking frantic, she knew right away something was wrong. They hopped in her s10 and took off, the back loaded with food, clothing and guns. Everything they needed to live for a while. 

Michelle and her brother had been alone for quite some time until they'd come across a small group who had wanted to join up. Little did they know that one of the groups members had been bitten and in the middle of the night changed, taking her brother. Since then Michelle's been on her own trying to find somewhere abandoned to hide out and live in peace. So far that wasn't an easy task. Walkers were always stumbling upon her forcing her to move on. 

Sample Post: Michelle and Jaden drove along in silence for a little while. Letting a deafening sigh, Michelle leaned forward and flipped on the stereo. Nothing. Static.
Cursing softly she shook her head and instead turned on her iPod. Music filled the cabin, it was an upbeat tune, Titanium by David Guetta. Michelle leaned back comfortably in her seat and turned her head to look at her brother. He had a soft smile on his face. Reaching over he grabbed Michelle's had and squeezed it reassuringly. 

They'd been driving along when a walker ambled onto the street. Jaden had to slam on his breaks and swerve in order to avoid hitting the thing. Coming to a stop in the middle of the road, several hundred yards away, they both turned around in their seats to watch for a moment. This walker wasn't alone. It was followed by a good number of others. "It looks like a heard of cows..." Michelle whispered softly. Jaden decided they weren't taking any chances and floored it out of there, just as they started to pull away, "Wait!" Slowly a walker on the edge of the group turned in their direction and considered them for a moment. "Jaden, it's dad..." The words were choked out as Jaden glanced over his shoulder to look. Clearing his throat he slowly started to pull away as Michelle stared at the back window at their father.
