OOC Intro #1

Welcome to Apocalypse How!
You've made it to Gloucester, and you're probably in one piece! Mostly... This is our OOC Intro post, a place for new players to introduce themselves, get to know one another's characters and find see who and what and when might click.
This month, the mod-run event will be posted on July 21st. Be sure to check the Calendar to see what else we have going on!

Ilana | Archie Jensen | Zombies, Run!
Can We Add You: Yes!
Introduction: Hi! I am a teen librarian (currently moonlighting as a childrens librarian tbh) in NYC! So, hey, if you ever need YA book recs, I'm ya gal. My plurk tends to be a mixture of RL/RP and fandom stuff. Fandomwise, I probably plurk the most about fiction podcasts and D&D liveplays (or, okay, Critical Role) but I also enjoy fantasy books in general. Also very fond of webcomics (the ones I still mostly follow are Lackadaisy and Stand Still Stay Silent). Also! I like comics in general! Especially indie stuff.
Availability: I am EST and MOSTLY tag on weekends/in the evening on weekdays though occasionally I will do a tag or two in the mid-day. Pacewise, I am definitely a backtagger and generally clear my inbox every 2-4 days
Extra: I was woefully absent on the TDM but I'd also be okay with handwaving basic introductions if anyone wants to! Archie is very, VERY social and likes to talk to people.
Age: 32
Does Character Have Powers/Cursed Items: Nah
Entity Affiliation(s): Not formally yet but MAYBE the Corruption or the Spiral
Permissions: HERE
Information: Archie is, again, an extremely friendly young woman who is coming into a world with potential apocalypses...from a world that's already experienced one! As the name of the canon suggests, Archie is a survivor of a zombie plague and resulting sort-of breakdown of society. But she doesn't let that get her down! She's also a "runner" (Runner 20, precisely) for a compound called New Canton, which means she's used to being out in the field and in danger. While she comes off kiiiiiiind of like a ditz - please be prepared for her to go off on tangents about English words and phrases. or apples - she is, in fact, QUITE SMART (she has a degree in protein crystallography from Cambridge).
Plotting: I would mostly like to inflict Archie on everyone tbh but ESPECIALLY if you need a sunny, talkative optimist for your closed-off character, I would like to provide her. My only caveat is that I don't necessarily want her abused by characters will ill-intentions. Though, attempts at manipulation are okay! (She gives people more chances than she maybe should, but she does know how to stand up for herself and will give someone a piece of her mind if she thinks they're a Bad Person.)
Visuals:
(Archie's from an audio canon and and has absolutely no physical description, but I pretty much think of her as blond, athletic and pretty. She is...from some Eastern European country.)

I think he'd really dig her. He's not AS sunshine-y and he's not necessarily optimistic, but he'll take whatever drops of hope he can find, you know? He likes jokes and he likes to laugh, he just never finds a lot of reason to... could always use a pick-me-up!
also archie seems like the type to find it cool he's good with yoyosno subject
also she totally would, yesno subject
Anyways! Hello, I'm LP and Cassie here is a bubbly science girl who is also quite smart and I think she should meet all the other bubbly girls who are also quite smart! I think they could hit it off personality wise. Looking forward to playing with you!

Hi! I totally think Cassandra and Archie could be good, good friends. AND HEY, they're actually roomies, apparently. Which is neat!!
no subject
And aww yiss rommies!! I'm excited! She never had roommates before and she'll probably want to try and have everything be perfect and be very hype about it.
