Bio: Born in Tennessee, David was the son of a construction worker, and the oldest of three brothers.
His father, was good towards his children, and busted his ass day and night, in order for his children to attend school, as well as teaching them to hunt and track game, fish, and how to live off the land.
David did well in school, unlike his brothers, and enjoyed the company of his friends.
At 16, David began working construction with his father, eventually becoming a professional welder, and plumber.
His brother, on the other hand, got involved in drugs, and one of them was later was sentenced to 25 yrs in prison, for murdering a drug dealer.
Late in 2004, three years after 9/11, David enlisted in the army as a sniper, and was sent over to Iraq.
And for the rest of 2005 was attached to a combat unit.
Though David served with honor, and racked up 52 kills, he did not enjoy the carnage of the battlefield, he was appalled by it.
He strived to treat the locals humanely and decently, and developed an intense hatred toward anyone who abused them.
During his time there, David witnessed his whole platoon get wiped out, during a enemy ambush while on patrol, leaving him with a profound sense of survivor's-guilt.
When David returned in 2006, he retreated to the mountains, and began living as a hunter, finding peace being surrounded by nature.
After a year in the mountains, David returned to the job he had left behind, but found life as a civilian difficult, as many war veterans do after returning home.
In 2008, David married, but his wife died in childbirth, along with their baby in 2009.
Grief-stricken, David again retreated into the mountains, this time accompanied by his one year old Golden Retriever, Jim.
After three months, David's father came up looking for him, and after finding him, stayed with him for three weeks, eventually persuaded him to work, and to the rest of the family.
In 2010, David was diagnosed with posttraumatic stress disorder, as a result of his combat experiences.
When the apocalypse broke out in 2011, David once again, along with his father, retreated into the woods of Tennessee. They found sanctuary at his grandfather's old moonshine cabin, and spent the better part of a year there.
Later found a group of people, and stayed with them, doing his best to keep them alive.
After six months in the mountains, David, along with his 55 year old father, and with the rest of the group, left Tennessee, and headed for Georgia, and then ended going from one place to another, looking for shelter.
With his background as a hunter, as well as his military experience, and along with his hunting dog, the group does well on the road.
Though for how much longer, is yet to be seen.
Having started with a number of 20, the group is now down to 12.
And with David having violent flashbacks of the war, the group is becoming concerned about their safety, though thanks to David's father calming their concerns, as well as David proving himself as a leader, they stay with him.

I was going by from when the first TWD game was released, and if my memory is correct, that was back in 2011.
I was not aware that ZA was suppose to have started in 2003, as the exact date of the outbreak has never been stated on the show, nor in the game, and I've never read the comic-series.
In any case, what do you think of my character concept?
Name: Kyle White
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Nationality: United States
State: Georgia
Race: Caucasian
Description: 6'2", short dark brown hair, normal build of someone his age, dark blue eyes and some facial hair
Occupation: Teacher
Personality: Determined, thoughtful and quiet. Gets along with most people but has a relatively short temper.
Background: Having taken to setting up camp at the school he taught at, Kyle White was used to safety in numbers when the apocalpyse first began. After a week of waiting for the army to roll through the town and for the school to be evacuated, he and the group of many students and teachers decided to use the advice over the radio stations and fortify the school. However, disaster struck when a herd of walkers attacked the school, infecting and killing many of the defenceless group. Kyle managed to escape the school with 4 students and another teacher, taking off out of the town in a small bus. Kyle and his group regretted leaving behind everyone else, but they had little choice. Over a few months of travelling from campsite to campsite, Kyle and his group had picked up a few survivors along the way, and were well equipped and informed on the threat of walkers. However, Kyle's group had only met the friendly people so far. On one day of scavenging supplies with a student, the other teacher and another survivor, Kyle received a radio message from his group - there was a group of survivors that wanted their stuff. Kyle returned to the campsite, only to find that the rest of his group had been slaughtered by the hostileweapon - except for one student who had hidden beneath a felled tree. He told Kyle that the hostile group had seven people led by a man who was called Steve, and they killed Kyle's group without much remorse. The student then mentioned that one of the hostile group looked like he didn't want to kill the group, a young, short black male (Russell from 400 days). Kyle, swearing to avenge the massacre, set out on a revenge mission, armed with a couple of guns and melee weapons. Kyle searched for almost half a year for Steve's group, and this led him to nowhere but small settlements that had been slaughtered and pillaged. Kyle and his group then decided to clear out one of these settlements, and live in it. For nearly two years, Kyle managed and led the settlement, acquiring a few survivors along the way. At this point, Kyle had lots of supplies and a plentiful amount of food, but he felt unsafe. Maybe it was the way he managed the community. He had seen some people talking about him behind his back. Eventually, Kyle was forced out of the community by his own group, left with nothing but a gun and bag of food. His group had grown tired of Kyle's dull leadership, and had left him behind despite how long he spent with them at the start of the apocalpyse. At this moment in time, Kyle is a lone survivor, following the tracks of a medium sized group, before he reaches a civil war site - Parkers Run. Kyle looks around, and sees the bodies of a few walkers and the body of a teenage girl - the group he was tracking had suffered a loss. Feeling sorry for the group he was following, he decided to bury the girls body and carry on tracking, as he had been doing before. Then he hears gunfire from the distance...
Preferred weapons: Knives, handguns, blunt weapons. Also favours a particular machete he has.

Bio: Born in Los Angelas California, and the son of a prostitute, Joshua grew up in a tough environment. His mom, though she loved him, was often times unable to care for him, and thus Joshua was pretty much raised on the streets.
Being the son of a hooker, Joshua was often ridiculed by other kids while in school, and got into fights often.
His father, a regular client of his mom, showed very little interest in him.
This lead him, even at a young age, to endeavour to rise above the social stigma that plagued him.
With a thirst for knowledge, Josh was an avid reader, did well in school, and even made quite a variety of friends; which included both other kids and teachers.
Kids that picked on him, often times later regretted it, for one reason or another.
Either they grew to respect him, or they got their ass' kicked good!
When he was 13, he began smuggling drugs after school, in an effort to help his mother get out of prostitution.
His mom begged him not to, as she did not want him to end up in juvenile hall.
After two years of much persuasion, Joshua abandoned his drug-running, and threw himself back into school.
After his 16th birthday, Josh began working a part-time job, in order to bring money into the home.
Work was hard, and due to his mother's situation, things barely improved.
Nevertheless, Josh kept at it.
Some of his mom's clients, who knew of her son, even if they didn't like him, they did respect him; and some even admired him.
When he was 20, his mom died from cancer.
With nothing left, Josh took to the open road.
Having had quite a bit of life experience already, and a high-school diploma, Josh was able to find different types of work, and proved himself to be a skilled worker.
When the outbreak began, Josh had just finished a three year stint working for the St. John Dairy, and was in Atlanta at the time.
After having escaped the city, Josh once again wondered from town-to-town, though this time looking for food and shelter.
His only companions on this journey, are an 11 year old boy whom he found lost in the city; having got separated from his parents by a walker-herd.
And a 2 year old Black Labrador, which the St. John's had given him as a puppy, for Joshua's 23rd birthday.
So together, the trio wanders this walker-infested wasteland, with the hope of finding a place of permanent safety.

He is also highly intelligent and very attentive to social cues and problem solving, and has a strong yet reasonably practical moral code to mediate two opposing parties. Though he appears to be very competent for his age, his logic tends to be flawed at times due to lack of personal experience and his habit of misinterpreting other's intentions and morals.

Backstory: Born in England with a Korean mother and an English father, Spencer spent the majority of his childhood studying in the hopes that he would graduate in law school. His knowledge would help him go far as a lawyer, if it were not for the horrific outbreak that would raise the dead and claim the lives of many innocent people.

John, realizing that Carver was dangerous later departed from his camp.
Carver and a couple of his people gave chase to the family!
John though easily killed Carver's men, and after brutally beating Carver, warned him that if he continued following them, John would kill him.
John allowed Carver to leave, and Carver headed back to his camp alone.
The family never saw him again.
John and his family later took up shelter in an old log cabin, near a lake.
Here, they've managed to make it a place of safety, a place they can call: Home.
