Character Profiles

Ashlee Reynolds

Equal parts whirlwind and wildcard. A self-proclaimed “Daddy’s girl.” Loud, charming, and completely unpredictable, she crashes into situations with the kind of energy that can either save the day or blow it to pieces. She loves hard, laughs loud, and has a knack for making friends in the most unlikely places, whether or not they want it. Her loyalty is unwavering, especially when it comes to the people she’s decided are hers. Underneath the chaos, there’s a sharp instinct for danger and a fear she never admits, least of all to herself.

Lexi Torres

Sharper than she lets on, Lexi learned early that trust is a currency you don’t spend twice. She keeps her cards close, reading people, storing what they give away in a look or a slip of the tongue. In the wrong hands, she can play innocent. In the right moment, she can play ruthless. Loyal to a fault, she protects the people she’s claimed as hers, even if it means breaking every rule in the book. The world may have taken her childhood, but it couldn’t take her aim.

Calvin Calloway

Calvin’s world ended before he had a chance to learn how it was supposed to work. Too young to understand the politics of survival but old enough to know when to hide, he’s learned the rules in whispers and gestures. He follows the people he trusts, mimicking their movements, storing away their warnings. His small size makes him invisible when it matters most, and his curiosity, though dangerous, sometimes turns up the answers no one else thought to look for.

Dr. Lisa Calloway

Lisa didn’t ask to be the answer. She just couldn’t stand watching people die when she could do something about it. A former trauma doctor with a mind wired for patterns, she treats survival like triage: assess, prioritize, cut. Every life she couldn’t save is a calculation she still runs. She leads with precision, protects with silence, and keeps her scalpel sharp—for science or survival.

Jack Reynolds

Jack didn’t ask to lead a group of survivors out of the apocalypse, but he sure as hell wasn’t going to let someone else screw it up. Haunted by the people he couldn’t save and the father who broke him, Jack fights with sarcasm, loyalty, and a shotgun named Beatrice. He doesn’t flinch, because if he does, someone else dies.
