Project Type: State of Survival Heroes

Tyler Kurtz, also known as the wolf boy, is a child raised by a wolf. Even after returning to human society, some habits have been carved into his bones, such as keeping his long nails, which makes him feel safe. And when he is emotional, he could only howl to the sky.

Chef is a phenomenal cook. Before the outbreak, people would stand in line for hours to get a taste of his streetside grill.

Even nowadays, he’s still got the magic touch. Residents of the Settlement love his cooking and, despite the shortages, he’s still dishing up delicious grub. Chef’s love of a good meal means he’s got a strange opinion on the Infected, he always says “everybody’s gotta eat”.

An electrician by trade, Nikola Nikolic has always been an inventor at heart and has channelled his grief at losing his entire family into creating items and weapons from salvaged parts. His mishandling of common English expressions is an inadvertent source of humour in the camp, but he is well-liked by everyone. With the exception of Frank, who displays his fear of Nikola’s toys in the only way he knows how.

Ray Jackson was the eponymous owner of the popular Ray’s nightspot in the fallen capital. While the club brought in a respectable haul of cash, it also served as a front for his far more lucrative firearms racket; which came in particularly handy following the outbreak. His hawk, Rolex, is the only member of his exotic pet collection he was able to rescue and the pair have developed a very strong bond.

Corporal Jonas P. Wolfe had been looking forward to some hard-earned R&R after a gruelling military tour overseas. As it turned out, he stepped off the plane from one war zone into another. He was drafted immediately into the frontline of the Lockdown to help contain the outbreak.

Born to rock, roll and burn. Ashley Marshall likes heavy rock music, and likes it LOUD. She has been riding with biker gangs since she was a teen, and survived the initial outbreak thanks to her advanced riding skills. Like Rusty, she fell in naturally with the Raiderz, before she finally had enough of Tombstone’s lechery and struck off on her own.

Growing up on the family ranch as the only girl in six children, Jane Goldshot quickly learned to hold her own against her brothers. She’s not afraid to speak her mind and if someone doesn’t agree with her, well, that’s their problem.

The crossbow Maddie carries is not a toy, she’ll bust your head with it in an instant. On the other hand, Frank’s favourite toys are Infected heads: great for playing fetch. So don’t be deceived by their innocent appearance!

It wasn’t always easy for Trisha Rangan growing up. Money was tight and her dreams of med school were scoffed at by her family who insisted her goal should be to marry a doctor instead. But she studied intensely and worked all hours she could to save money, eventually winning over her family in the process.

Whenever Miho Tanaka wasn’t working in her uncle’s restaurant, she was busy training. Guns, knives, any weapon she could get her hands on. Her father had been murdered in a gangland execution back in Japan, and Miho had sworn an oath of vengeance.
