the plots of many || Nicci's Plots

Holly Masterson, by all means, can be considered unconventional when compared to the whole of society (or at least the humans left of the society). Many people are out to protect themselves and have a deep hatred for all vampires because of what they are. Holly transcends this typical view by being able to judge each person individually despite what or who they are. Holly has a very determined and committed personality even in the face of incredible adversity. Holly grew up learning to always give more than she takes. She believes in a selfless attitude and being as generous as possible. Holly devotes her time to helping others and being involved in the camp in any way possible. She is definitely a social butterfly and does well in a social setting. Holly has a very ambitious outlook and tends to be much more of a leader than a follower. Despite this, Holly actually has a right respect for those in authority. She is in no way a blind follower, however, and will only follow those she believes in.

She is also quite the go-getter and finishes anything she puts her mind to. She is often seen working on various projects at a time and managing to handle them with relative ease. She is capable of handling an enormous amount of stress and has rarely ever gotten to her breaking point. She is resilient to exterior stressors and usually only breaks down when she feels she has failed in some way. Holly can easily be classified as an overachiever, especially when it comes to the camp. It is not uncommon to see her plate too full and yet a smile plastered on her face. Holly can manage her stress and handle a great deal, but also is proficient at hiding any stress she might be enduring. She doesn’t want to burden anyone else with her problems, but is always there for anyone should they need someone to talk to or a shoulder to lean on.

This brings up another important aspect of her personality: she is an incredible friend. Loyal, dependable, trustworthy, generous, compassionate, loving, patient, and honest are all characteristics of Holly towards people she is friends with or friendly with in any way. She will remain supportive throughout any endeavor you take and go along side you as a show of solidarity. Holly would never leave her friends aside to pursue other things. Instead, she manages her busy schedule well enough that unexpected surprises won’t totally derail. She is quite the planner and often considers many of the possibilities when making her schedule. There are times that she has stressed out when something got in the way of her plans, but this is rarely visible on the exterior.

Holly will sacrifice her own wants in order to be there for her friends. She is very dependable and also would never miss her duties or something she said she would do. Holly is also very compassionate even to people she doesn’t know. If she ever sees someone being picked on or bullied, she will stand up in defense of that person. Holly is one of the bravest if not slightly reckless people you will ever meet. Her bravery can get her into trouble when she doesn’t realize what she’s up against, but either way she will not back down. She is not easily moved to stand down and her persistence is never ending. She simply does not give up. If something doesn’t go the right way, she’ll keep trying until she fixes the issue.

The thing about Holly is that people mistake her kindness for a lack of anger or the ability to be fierce. Holly is actually determined and is not someone who can easily be walked over by arrogant idiots. She will stand up for a cause or a person and defend her side until the end. She can be as equally stubborn as her best friend and it has gotten her into some sticky spots in the past. She is not the most forgiving person if you have done something truly horrible to her. It takes a lot to break her trust and equally, it takes a lot to gain it back. She might be a pushover for the people she loves, but she would never let someone she doesn’t like or know take advantage of her. She can be headstrong and slightly reckless, but not for a lack of bravery. She is by no means fearless, but can push her fear aside when it is necessary.

When it comes to the opposite sex, she often questions the motives of males. She has seen many of her friends fall prey to charming smooth talkers just to have their hearts broken. She personally has had very little time to experience anything because surviving and protecting Bailey has always come first. She is hit on quite often and usually with crude remarks. She can be civil in these cases, but she won’t stand for people treating her like a piece of meat. She isn’t as easily fooled in the charms of those males who think they are god’s gift to women. She is not an easy mark and anyone who thinks so will find just how sorely mistaken they are.

-------------------------------

Friends; She's very generous and a fantastic friend so this area will be very large. Her best friend and essentially sister is Bailey Coleman.

Enemies; She doesn't instinctively hate vampires like most others do, but she doesn't exactly fully voice this for obvious reasons. She isn't the kind of person to hate or dislike someone for being what they are or for one thing. She will only dislike someone when given a real reason to. This area is smaller.

Lovers; She doesn't have anything in this department since survival and protecting Bailey come first.

Theo has extremely strong morals and usually does what's right instead of what he wants, although that doesn't mean that he isn't pressed with a large debate over the issue. Despite the sensible guy that people see on the outside, Theo is often subject to very selfish thoughts and ideas. He has on occasion even acted on them, when he felt that the results were worth the cost, but then felt horrible about it afterward.

Theo takes training very seriously. Sometimes he'll push people to give more because he know they can but he knows when to stop. He would never jeopardize the health of someone but it doesn't mean he'll go easy either. Living these days is all about survival and he wants people to know that. This is one of the few areas that he is most fierce in. For those who are weary of training in the view of others, he'll take them aside to teach them whatever they'd like to know. Theo goes above and beyond in helping around the camp from moving supplies, watching younger children, all the way to simply training the newest warrior recruits. He takes the safety of the camp very seriously and feels protective of all that reside there.

When Theo isn't training, advising, or out on missions, he is spending time doing an assortment of other things. He enjoys going on his nightly runs, and traveling to secure resources for the camp. Theo adores reading and isn't nearly as fond of going out for fun around the camp. He'll participate if someone asks him, but he prefers to remain on his own and not let himself get too overly attached to everyone. He keeps a distance between himself and those in the camp to protect himself and them from any heartache should something bad happen.

Theo is also very compassionate and kind-hearted, always wanting the best out of people and pushing them towards it. He's never cruel or mean or wrong in the way he goes about this - and takes this very delicately by tailoring his methods to each person he meets. He has high standards for himself as well as all the people that he comes into contact with. He's always there to lend a helping hand, often doing handyman type jobs around town for free, when he has time. He immediately will offer a lady help with her groceries to her car if she looks like she has too much to handle for herself. He also doesn't mind giving advice, and usually tailors it to what he knows that person will respond best to.

*He is the adviser at the camp but also has his hands in many things (especially when it comes to the warriors since it helps him keep a level head and he has important skills in that area that have developed since the beginning of the takeover). He is very distant because his fiance was infected with the virus and could have died from it so chose to run off and become a vampire, well as far as he knows. He has no idea if she survived and for all purposes, she is dead to him because she didn't even give him any chance or choice in the matter. He keeps people at a distance although he is very compassionate.

-------------------------------

Friends; He's not going to be the easiest to get close to, but when he is a friend, he is a damn good one. He is fiercely loyal and protective. He brought Holly Masterson and Bailey Coleman into the camp when they were younger and feels a special responsibility for them.

Enemies; Vampires, plain and simple. Anyone who becomes an issue with the camp, although he will always listen to reason should there be any. Those who try to hurt his friends, or Holly or Bailey will find themselves in match with a fierce enemy.

Lovers; He just can't seem to admit that he is seriously attracted to Bailey, let alone that he has deeper feelings for her despite the fact that she's 8 years younger than him. He feels a responsibility to protect her since he brought her here and feels that it would be inappropriate, not to mention he keeps everyone at arm's length when he can because he's already been hurt before.
