Hometown: Chicago, IL.
Current Location: Georgia
Bio: Tanner was a loner even before the outbreak. He liked to keep to himself and not have the responsibility of worrying about anyone else. He aspired to become a director though and always had a video camera in hand. Once the outbreak occurred Tanner kept to himself until he was drawn in by another group of survivors. Tanner didn't work well with other's at first and quickly found himself on the outskirts of his group. He decided that the only way to get through this desperate time was by changing his ways.
Tanner changed his ways slowly over time by proving himself in all different aspects to his group. He elevated in popularity and reached a higher authority level. Although, this turned out to be all for nothing as one night his group was hit by walkers. Tanner managed to get away and went back the next day to find his entire group gone. This forced Tanner back into his loner state and he has traveled alone ever since. He hasn't seen many other people since then and the only way he has been keeping his sanity is by logging the overall activity of each day on his camera.
Tanner doubts he'll join another group, but he hasn't completely made his mind up. He now finds himself in the south where he had intercepted a message from others and was now trying to find them. They have no idea he is looking for them though because Tanner had lost signal before he had recovered from the shock that there were others and hadn't said a word.

Roleplay Sample: Seth grinned as he heard the only other voice, besides his sisters, that he knew. He looked up over his shoulder to see Harley. He was absolutely in love with the girl. Did she know? Of course not that was probably why the girl was still talking to him. His eyes were much brighter than they had been five minutes ago. He had never met, let alone spoken, to a girl that had been able to brighten his eyes more than his love for reading. Of course though Seth and Harley were only friends, but they were best friends at that and he treasured their friendship. He would bend over back wards for this girl. Which he had because he helped her out willingly with Skyler. The fact that Harley already had a kid didn't scare him away. If anything it drew him in closer to her because he admired her for being a teen mother and still going to school.
"Hey," he said softly, even around Harley his voice remained soft, but that could be because he didn't want anyone else invading in on their conversation. He closed his comic book and put it back in his bag no longer needing it as his friend was now here. He pushed himself off the ground and wrapped his arms around her in a warm hug. He took a step back and his smile widened on his face, "Fall asleep in class?" Seth questioned as he lifted his hand to point at the small indentations on her cheek. Not like she could see what he was pointing at, but he didn't think of that ahead of time. It was obvious she had conked out because whatever she had rested her face on left little marks on her face.
Harley was the one girl he could see himself slowly becoming comfortable around. She was the one person that had actually wanted to get to know him when he first got here. "Up late last night?" He asked though he already knew the answer. Having a child will do that to you, "I could have come over to let you get some rest you know," that had kind of been Seth's thing. He showed up when she needed him most and always offered to help her out at any time. Seth started walking over to the bench knowing the tree wouldn't be comfortable for two people. He figured she would follow behind him despite him not having said anything. He took a seat and motioned for her to take the place next to him.
