Sarah "Old Scratch" Tarrant

* Background: Sarah is a tough, weathered woman in her early forties. She was a child when the bombs fell and remembers fragments of the world before – the ease of access to resources, the interconnectedness of nations, the constant hum of electricity. She has wandered for years, witnessing the rise and fall of countless communities. * Personality: Sarah is fiercely independent, pragmatic, and deeply cynical about the possibility of lasting peace or stability. Her memories of the old world fuel a restless spirit, making her reluctant to settle down in any one place for too long. She possesses a dry wit and a no-nonsense attitude, honed by years of survival. Despite her tough exterior, she has a protective instinct, especially towards those younger and more vulnerable. * Physical Appearance: Sarah is of medium height with a wiry build, hardened by years of travel. Her brown hair hair is usually pulled back in a tight braid, and her face bears the lines of sun and hardship. Her eyes, however, hold a sharp intelligence and a flicker of the world that was. She typically wears practical, scavenged clothing and carries a well-maintained shotgun. * Quote: "Settle down? Kid, I've seen 'settled down' turn to dust more times than you've probably seen sunrises. This world ain't done changing yet. Best to keep moving, keep your eyes open, and trust no one but yourself."

Lily Buchanan

* Background: Lily is an 18-year-old who has known nothing but the post-apocalyptic world. She was born into a small, short-lived commune and has been traveling with Sarah for the past few years. The stories Sarah tells of the "before times" fascinate her, painting a picture of a world almost impossible to imagine. * Personality: Lily is resilient, curious, and possesses a youthful optimism that sometimes clashes with Sarah's cynicism. She is eager to learn and adapt to the harsh realities of their world. She sees Sarah as a protector and a source of wisdom, hanging onto her stories of the past with a sense of wonder and longing for something she never knew. * Physical Appearance: Lily is slender 18 year old girl who still carries a certain innocence in her features, though her eyes have seen their share of hardship. Her dirty blonde hair is long and often tangled, and her clothes are patched and worn. She is quick and agile, having learned to survive by scavenging and avoiding danger. * Quote: "Old Scratch says there were flying machines that carried people across the whole world! Can you imagine? No walking for days and days… What was it really like? Was it… better?"

Marcus Bellweather

* Background: Marcus is a journalist in his late twenties. He was born a few years after the bombs fell and grew up during the most chaotic and dangerous period of the rebuilding. He has witnessed the worst of humanity and, more recently, the tentative steps towards a new kind of order. He travels from settlement to settlement, documenting the diverse ways people are rebuilding their lives and trying to piece together the story of this new world. * Personality: Marcus is intelligent, observant, and driven by a desire to understand and record the history of this new era. He is generally optimistic, seeing the resilience of the human spirit as a beacon of hope. He is articulate and enjoys engaging in conversations, eager to learn different perspectives and share the stories he has gathered on his travels. * Physical Appearance: Marcus is a black man in his late 20s of average height with a lean build, often looking slightly disheveled from his travels. He wears practical clothing with numerous pockets for his notebooks and writing implements. He has a thoughtful expression and keen eyes that are constantly taking in his surroundings. * Quote: "This isn't the end of the story; it's a new chapter. We've lost so much, but look around – people are building, adapting, creating something new from the ruins. My job is to tell that story, to show the world, or what's left of it, that humanity endures."

Jae-hoon "Jae" Park

* Background: Jae is a Korean man in his early thirties who arrived in North America via a trading vessel a few months ago. He left his own rebuilt community in South Korea to see how other parts of the world were coping with the aftermath of the cataclysm. He carries a unique perspective, having witnessed a different regional response to the global disaster. * Personality: Jae is thoughtful, observant, and generally quiet. He is still trying to understand the nuances of North American culture in this new world. He is polite and respectful of different customs and is a keen listener. His outsider perspective can often provide a valuable and unbiased view of the situations the group encounters. He is also surprisingly knowledgeable about various survival techniques and has a calm demeanor in stressful situations. * Physical Appearance: Jae is of average height with a wiry build. He has a calm and composed demeanor, and his eyes often hold a thoughtful expression. He wears practical, durable clothing that suggests he is prepared for travel. He carries a well-maintained backpack containing essential supplies and a few items from his homeland. * Quote: "In my home, we have also seen great loss and great rebuilding. It is… different here. The ways people organize themselves, the things they value. I am here to learn, to understand how humanity adapts in different lands after such a great fire."
