âIrishâ
27 / Male / Not Immune
A follower of whims, Logan is an individualist first and last. He acts as his conscious directs him with little regard for what others expect. He avoids authority, resents restrictions, and challenges tradition. His behavior may be unpredictable but is not totally random. Wanting to believe in goodness and right, he makes his own way while being benevolent and kind. In short: he does the best that a good person can do and is devoted to helping others.
He has little use for laws and regulations. To him they are mostly used for intimidation and he hates to see others being told what to do. He follows his own moral compass, which although good, doesn't agree with that of society. To him, âlawâ implies honor, trustworthiness, obedience to authority, and reliability-- none of which he found in the world. The lawfulness he saw included close mindedness, reactionary adherence to tradition, judgmentalness, and a lack of adaptability. He sees it as a tool that could create co-dependence and the faith and confidence that others will act as they should.
While he wants freedom and flexibility, this, he feels, can include recklessness, resentment towards legitimate authority, arbitrary actions, and irresponsibility. He sees being good as a conscious choice, but finds it hard to balance both law and freedom. Logan wanted to fix the world. Just not in this way.
S&W Model 586 American .357 Magnum - Introduced in the early 80âs, this Smith and Wesson revolver quickly proved popular with police personnel for its dependability and stopping power. It features a solid frame, wooden grip (as opposed to its full stainless variant), swing-out cylinder, and double-action trigger. A heavy barrel lug reduces the effect of recoil. The location of this weapon is fastened to a concealed suspender-like holster under his right arm.
Busse Battle Mistress - It has a conventionally shaped 10-inch blade, but it is nearly 2 pounds, and quite literally as sharp as a razor. This combination of weight, strength, and extreme keenness makes it unique. Do you wish to behead a hippo? Would you like to chop down a telephone pole? Perhaps you yearn to slice a redwood into sections? If you have the Mistress and a strong arm, you can.
âHeadknockerâ - A Louisville Slugger. Itâs a baseball bat because firing a gun is similar to ringing a big-ass dinner bell for zombies.
Backpack
Wet wipes - For cleanup after an ooey-gooey zombie beatdown.
Bandanas - A few bandanas for handkerchiefs and incase the smell of rotting flesh is too much.
Rope, paracord (100 ft.) - You never know when you might need this.
Bedroll - To catch some zzzâs.
Crowbar - To break into shit without much problem.
Bullseye Lantern - An antique with a single-shutter. Highly polished inside to reflect the light in a single direction. It burns around 6 hours off of 1 pint of oil.
Athletic wrap - For injuries, used for grip and stabilization as well.
Two-way radio - Is anybody out there?
On Person
Wilson Leather, jacket and gloves - Try to bite a hole through that!
Belt pouch - Where he stores bullets.
Gor (Loganâs bull-mastiff)
Collar pouch - A hidden pouch on his collar containing 30, 80mg oxycontin.
Saddle bags - Two reasonably large pouches, connected by cloth and draped over his back. This holds: a small blanket, a custom wool sweater made for a dog, a tennis ball, steel wire, and duct tape.
Canteen - A useful tool for storing water.
As an amazing athlete, Logan concentrated on the power aspect of sports and excels in hand-to-hand combat and cardiovascular activity. He can push himself to make an extreme effort in serious situations. Because of his curious nature he has an innate talent for finding weaknesses. Heâs very good at fixing objects, and not so good at fixing people.
Heâs also not good with computers, or most things electronic (unless it has wheels). His biggest weakness by far is Gor, his dog. While a burden he refuses to let him succumb to the evils released on the world. Finally, the last weakness is that heâs a closet smoker, and often zones out when craving to channel his willpower away from the physical side-effects.
Born a pikey (or Irish gypsy), Logan had a lack of education. His tight-knit community was always on the move to evade the law or worse. As a child he was small and beat on by the bigger kids. This didnât stop them from becoming almost brothers to him, however. Though normally sticking to themselves, sometimes they would drop by places where they could hustle a few dollars from the locals. At 18, when it was legal for him to enter bars, he became a pool-shark. While prosperous, the trade became volatile when he arrived in Britain and took a generous sum from a crime syndicateâs under-boss who proceeded to start a brawl inside the pub. Alone and outnumbered, Logan impressed the man by bringing down nearly all of them before getting hit in the head with a bar stool. Later he found a business card in his pocket and this is how he became a boxer.
As we know, boxing is politics. It wasn't many underground title-fights later that the 21-year-old had won enough money for his boss to earn a promotion to the professional league. He was consistently inconsistent with high peaks and long plateaus his first three years in when something clicked inside his head. The following year, at age 24, Logan went 14-0-1 (due to a majority draw) and earned a shot at his first title match. All bets were on him as the head contender-- exactly the reason he took a fall and fatal blow to his pride.
It was determined that he defrauded the match and intentionally took the fall, a penalty that would land him three years and prison with two years probation. Unbeknownst to him that heâd gotten rusty while doing time, he foolishly re-issued a challenge as a grudge match against his only defeat in his final year. The match ended in a T.K.O and he suffered severe trauma to his brain as a result of his stubbornness. At 27 years old, Logan woke up from a 6-month coma alone in a hospital bed to his dog attacking his face with love, and surrounded by zombies. Man's best friend just became man's only friend.
