Character Name: Ashe Corvin
Age: 22
Hometown: Clare, Ireland
Current Location: Dallas, Texas
Bio: Ashe lived a seemingly normal life in Ireland. He was one of six children between Kimberly and Angus Corvin. With four sisters and one brother he was never alone or bored. At a young age he was pegged as a troublemaker. He was kicked out of elementary school for fighting almost a dozen times. His parent’s were almost complete opposites. His mother, a young woman form France who worked in a flower shop was soft, beautiful, and caring. His father, a huge loud man who worked as a mechanic and had ties with the IRA was never still. He moved around a lot and always stood out in a group of people. People who knew the family would comment that Ashe looked so much like his mother apart from the eyes. He and his father shared bright green eyes that brightened up both their faces. Out of all his siblings he was close to two especially. His older brother Damian, a mechanic like their father, always took care of Ashe and the two would take rides on his motorcycle every day. The other was his older sister Gabrielle, she is the one who taught him to read and how to play a guitar.
After graduating high school at the age seventeen he started working at his father’s Auto Shop. Here he learned how to tear a car apart and put it back together with no problem, however the cars weren’t always in the best shape afterwards. This life soon bored him and so he went to America with his Damian and Gabrielle. Once in America they made sure to become American Citizens so as to finalize their moving. While living in America they started their own band with a mute boy named Seth who played drums. Ashe was the singer in the band and for the next two years they were happy. This all changed when Gabrielle died, she had been diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer and out of depression killed herself. Heartbroken and alone Ashe and Damian gave up and joined the Marine Corps. For the next two years the brothers served and were even sent to Afghanistan. One day while on leave in the States the brothers met up with Seth. The three friends went out for drinks and that’s when things went to hell. Their first encounter with the Walkers led to Damian getting bit and infected. While they managed to get away they all knew what was coming. Ashe took it upon himself to end his brother’s life. From that moment Ashe and Seth began running, they haven’t stopped since. Now they reside in Texas and are just trying to survive.

Roleplay Sample: Ashe and Seth drove down the almost barren road with “Home Sweet Home” by Motley Crue blaring out the radio. Seth was being quiet, as usual. Being friends with a mute could be annoying when you feel like talking to someone. Ashe reached into his pocket for a cigarette. He pulled out the pack and sighed as he saw there was only one left. He pulled it out a lit it up, taking a long drag of it before saying “We need to stop at the next gas station, I’m out of smokes”. Seth pulled his eyes away from his book and looked at Ashe with the normal look, the one that usually meant Seth was thinking I told you to slow down on them. Ashe rolled his eyes as he said “Don’t look at me like that! I know I need to slow down but it’s a habit”. Seth gave him that other look that usually meant Well kick the stupid habit and you could save yourself a lot of grief. You know those things can kill you. Ashe took another deep drag and blew the smoke into Seth’s face, causing him to grimace. Then he laughed as he said “These things may kill me but so will everything else!”.
With that Ashe turned up the music and kicked up their speed to about 98 mph. After hours of driving they finally found a gas station, it was surrounded by about eight empty cars. Seth pulled out his Smith & Wesson Model 36 and made sure it was loaded. Ashe pulled out his Beretta 92 and did the same. Once they were sure they were ready they jumped out of their Dodge Ram and walked up to the Gas Station. Seth moved over to the gas pumps and checked for gas, there was none. He then ran over to the other cars and started sucking the gas out of them. Ashe moved into the store and gathered food and medicine off the shelves. He grabbed as much water as he could as well. Then he heard it, the sound of shuffling feet and a deep groaning noise. It was here that Ashe just sighed and said “If you’re here to try and eat me can you please not? I like my body the way it is”. He instantly regretted it when about six of the Walkers came around the corner and started coming at him, he grabbed his bag and ran outside yelling all the while “Seth! Lets get the hell out of here!”. Ashe was so happy Seth wasn’t deaf because as soon as he started yelling Seth grabbed the gas he had gathered and took off towards the truck. Once they were both piled into the truck Ashe stopped and swore under his breath.
Seth looked at him quizzically but Ashe didn’t stop to answer he grabbed his Beretta and ran back into the gas station. Seth jumped out of the truck and got his pistol ready to shoot. Suddenly Ashe came running back out of the Gas station with about six cartons of cigarettes and several other packs piled onto them. Right behind him were the Walkers. Seth shot two down instantly and waited until Ashe got closer before he shot him the middle finger. Ashe laughed loudly before jumping into the truck. Once they were all loaded up they started to take off but Ashe decided instead to run the other Walkers down. He laughed as he said “Well that was close huh? Good thing I remembered to grab them, otherwise I would have been out of luck!”. Seth rolled his eyes and got back to reading his book. Ashe stuck his tongue out at him and turned up the music to “You Could Be Mine” by Guns N’ Roses.
