Aaron Redfield
From Sotf Wiki
Name: Redfield, Aaron
Gender: Male
Age: 16
Grade: 10th
Extra Curricular Activity: Baseball team, shortstop. Also team's second-best hitter (next to David).
School: Barry Coleson High
Appearance: Not very imposing physically, his most notable features are the beginnings of a moustache and a large shiner under his right eye, (along with a metal plate replacing the crushed bone on the bottom of the eyesocket.) From one of David's baseball throws accidentally hitting him during a game of catch after baseball season ended. Standing at 5'4" and having a thin and wiry build, Aaron is usually not what one would call an intimidating physical figure. His skin is almost paste-white, though some sparks of color appear on his face. Very pale yellow hair and peircing blue eyes frame Aaron's unusually pale face. Just like David, he is usually seen in his baseball jersey and uniform, in Aaron's case with a large red "5" framing the back of the jersey, unlike David's "17".
Biography: For the most part, Aaron's life was uneventful. Learning how to play baseball at an early age, he continually practiced so that he could be as good at the game as he could be. He met David Jackson at age ten, and from there on there was a friendly rivalry between the two, which developed into an actual friendship after years of being on the same team. The two players made an impact in the middle and high school baseball divisions with their skill at the game, helping lead the Barry Coleson team to three consecutive undefeated seasons. Unfortunately, a stray throw during a short catching drill between the two nearly crippled Aaron when it almost crushed his eye. Even though the operation to replace the damaged bone with metal plates was successful, Aaron was never able to play baseball after that, due to the risk of the metal knifing into his eye, or the eye simply falling out. He does not hold a grudge against his fellow baseball player for the accident, but feels it was his own fault for being careless. His dream of going into the Major Leagues dashed by the post-season accident, Aaron started considering a military career and was actually going to take the ASVAB test the day after the trip. Of course, SOTF has a way of interfering with plans...
Other: Has good reflexes from so many quick catches as a shortstop.
Number: Boy #24

Designated Weapon: Children's Scissors (The Plastic Kind)
Conclusions: I don't think even having the best reflexes out there are going to save this guy when he gets into combat. There's a small chance, of course, if he gets crafty. (Heh, get it? Crafty with the children's scissors! Haha...I crack myself up sometimes.)

Game Evaluations
Kills: None, told Katherine Marks he would kill Jacob Starr but never got the chance.
Killed by: Sliced open by Katherine Marks. Meat hook snagged on collar, so his collar also exploded, blowing his neck open.
Collected Weapons: Safety Scissors (designated weapon, threw them in the ocean).
Allies: None
Enemies: Jacob Starr, technically Katherine Marks.
Mid-Game Evaluation: From the beginning of the game onward, Aaron had played it safe and stayed hidden from sight, hoping to avoid the game altogether and come out the winner when all of the students had all but massacred one another. He wandered the island for a bit, ditching his designated weapon (a pair of children's scissors) in the ocean and wandering through the open field where fellow teammate David Jackson was in the process of gunning down Andrew Klock, before eventually finding his way to the warehouse.
At the warehouse, he met a bruised and bloody Katherine Marks. All he saw was a beautiful girl boasting some terrible injuries. Aaron never guessed this vixen would send him to his untimely end. Aaron bandaged up Katherine and listened to her story about Jacob Starr and the horrors he had inflicted upon her. When Katherine started coming onto Aaron, he was completely taken aback, and inevitably wound up turning away to adjust the plate underneath his eye socket. That was when Katherine struck. Katherine drug the meat hook down Aaron's spine, completely paralyzing him. Immediately thereafter, she flipped him over and delivered the coupe de grace. Aaron's journey ended there, in front of the warehouse.
Post-Game Evaluation: A waste of time. At least the other baseball players were interesting...
Memorable Quotes:
- "That bastard! How bad is it? Once we take care of those injuries I'm going to kill him with my bare hands! I'll rip him limb from fucking limb!"- reaction to Katherine's story about being assaulted by Jacob Starr.
- "Katherine, wh-what are you doing?"- asked when Katherine started trying to seduce him in an attempt to get him to let down his guard.
Other/Trivia
- Aaron Redfield was the shortstop for Barry Coleson's baseball team. Along with fellow SOTF participants David Jackson, Michael Suarez, Scott Jameson, Jack O'Connor, Ian Hargrave, and Jason Andrews, the group was very tightly nit... almost like brothers. Throughout their stint on the island, references back to the team are made by many of the baseball boys.
- Slayer actually asked Kaishi to kill Aaron as retribution for a misunderstanding between the two where Kaishi thought Slayer had godmodded part of a fight. Slayer edited the mistake and talked her into killing Aaron as payback.
- Finding Aaron's corpse provoked one of the only times David Jackson showed his emotions in the game.
- In Aaron's story, it states that he wandered through the open field early in the game when David Jackson was in the process of killing Andrew Klock. Apparently, this incident caused quite a bit of viewer confusion due to the similar clothing articles worn by both Aaron and David. This brings up the question of why David and Aaron never encountered each other during that, but it's reasonable to assume that since the field is a large area, they were too far away to see each other and different cameras picked the two up (or he simply passed through one's field of vision, too far away to be too distinguished).
- Aaron mistakenly labels the saying "Nice guys finish last" as "Nice guys always lose" when being killed by Katherine Marks.
- Aaron was apparently a big hockey fan, as stated by Jack O'Connor when he met Sidney Crosby ("The only thing he loved more than hockey was baseball").
- Aaron apparently had an extremely hard head, as at the start of his game he accidentally headbutted a camera, destroying it. Either that or the SOTF cameras are rather fragile.
