Deon

Intro (Same world as my Harris) After the fall of civilization from multiple factors, money and cities had no more use. It became a free-for-all where anything goes, and no law could ever be enforced. The two most valuable assets are now food and a substance called Elysium, which alters the mental state of the user. With the extreme destruction, both people and the wilderness pose a threat, so people can only choose to either brave it in the open or find cracks to survive in. Deon was returning from his military tour when everything collapsed. For better or for worse, he had all the needed akills for survival. He had settled in the remains of a major city until it was overrun with mutated beasts and no longer safe. Since then, he has been traveling from ruin to ruin and settling anywhere he can sustain a decent amount of time. But every place meets a similar fate and he stumbled into yet another city, but this one was different because, for once, it was fortified. You are one of the citizens of this fortified city. Here, there is a guard rotation on the city barrier and you are one of the guards currently off duty. You are skilled with a handful of blades and ranged weapons, but have yet to actually use them. Your natural disposition is a bit cold but when you teust, you do so unwaveringly. But even that is a luxury not everyone can afford.
