Name: Noel Barnes
Nickname: No; Big Bad Boss
Age: 26
Personality: Noel is cold and ruthless, as one might want their leader to be during a zombie apocalypse. He isn't afraid of a little (or a lot) of blood and is willing to do anything if it means helping his team or himself. Noel is best at ruthless fighting and risk taking, and is normally trying his best to make out strategies, even if he isn't the best at it. He actually has ADD and dyslexia, so you could say he was born to be a fighter, not a scholar. Noel finds nothing more exciting and fulfilling than getting a fresh kill. Although he is cold hearted on the outside, Noel is actually softer on the inside, especially towards his team. His team members are the only people he has allowed himself to get close to, and as a result, well, he hasn't killed them yet. Although he does make vauge threats whenever they annoy him. Noel trains his team members hard and has high expectations for them. Expectation number 1: Don't die. That's about it on expectations.
History: Noel had only lived with his mother as a child, his father had left them after he was born. The two of them grew up dirt poor, his mom hardly ever paying the bills on time, even with two jobs. Never the less he grew up to be fine and for a while after he graduated high school he was jobless and still had to live with his mother for a while (He didn't have the grades to go to college). His only skill was fighting and gun-wielding, and surprisingly there aren't too many high paying jobs requiring that skill set. He had eventually become a bounty hunter. He had been looking for a job in a police department (but he wouldn't have been able to seeing as he hardly finished high school) but a different station picked him up. And BAM he had become one of the top bounty hunters. Normally a Bounty Hunter has about the same morals as a police officer but not Noel, not really. He accepted all kinds of cases, as in having the occasional killing. You know, someone just didn't want to get their hands dirty and came to him. And so he became the highest paying bounty hunter with the lowest morals.
He almost felt as if all his wrong doings had collected on him, and his karma was absolutely horrible. So he was rather surprised when he had found an amazing girl to marry. Her name was Emily and he was in love with her. She never found out about his killing people, and Noel had always felt a horrible pang of guilt when his job was mentioned. So when he had lost her, as well as his mother, his horrible guilt had only hung over his head and not to mention a great anger from his loss. And now his present day, fighting off zombies with a fueled passion.
Who They Lost: His mom and his fiance Emily. It was just a regular day, Emily and Noel's mom sat at the counter, discussing plans for the wedding and Noel happily shooting things outside (he owned a large piece of land, what can he say, killing had a large payoff). The zombies just seemed to come out of nowhere, being everywhere, practically a swarm around his house. He rushed inside for his mom and Emily but a group of zombies already crowded over them. Noel tried to fight them off, but there were to many and he had to accept it and run away while he still could.

1. Chainsaws/ other loud weapons
2. Fighting, Hand to Hand if it isn't a zombie

4. Driving (as soon as he finds a car/motorcycle with some gas)
5. Guns, he's been known to kill someone just for the bullets in their gun
6. Lifting weights
7. Drawing
(if you hadn't noticed, his life pretty much revolves around fighting)

2. Swimming
3. Electronics, if it's not a weapon he doesn't like it.
4. Traitors
5. Salty foods
6. Reading/Writing
7. Wedding dresses, it reminds him of Emily, and he gets a bit weird when he thinks about Emily
Fears:
1. Ocean, to keep it brief, there are some creepy things in the deep blue.
2. Losing one of his team mates, especially if the only reason they were gone was that they left the team. Simply put: he isn't a big fan of rejection.
3. Losing his killing edge, especially in this time that he really needs it.
4. Falling in Love again, he really feels like he had betrayed Emily and he doesn't want to go through that again
Dreams:
1. To marry his fiance, Emily, and live their life happily together.
2. To eventually get out of the killing business and do something respectable.
3. To be able to turn his bad past around and live a new life.
4. To be able to live a normal life.
Romantic Interest: UNKNOWN
Weapon of Choice: Of course he was a bounty hunter so he was skilled with most weapons, but he's crap with swords. His weapon of choice? A cross bow. He finds it a great weapon, even if he runs out of arrows he is able to use the crossbow as a weapon itself. When he left his house he grabbed a duffel bag that he used for his work, containing a case or two of bullets, a gun, a knife, and a crossbow with several arrows. His stock pile of weapons grew after looting a couple of stores but he only carries his crossbow and a loaded gun with him.
