Appearance: Lance has a thin, sharp face that would be attractive if he actually took care of it on a regular basis. He’s fortunate enough to avoid having contracted acne, but besides a daily shower and shave, he tends to forgo the normal maintenance routine. His hair is dark brown and cut so that cowlicks curve up slightly at the bottom of his head. His eyes are a dull shade of blue, as well as being shadowed by thick, nearly-black eyebrows. His build is a slender six feet, with small, ropy muscles and little body fat. He typically dresses in whatever clothes happen to be in his drawer when he gets up, usually jeans, generic-brand white sneakers, and a blank red t-shirt.

Biography: Lance was the product of a patriotic American family, and raised to stand on his own two feet, without any assistance from the government or anyone else who would boss him around. In order to ensure his safety in their heavily armed home, they trained him to use guns and knives from an early age, and even gave him his own Bowie knife for his eighth birthday. He developed an interest in music and manga, and would frequently sneak a peek at media that he was deemed too young to see.

He met Kasumi White and her sister Megumi through convenience of location and classrooms when he was attending middle school. She was the sweet, down-home girl that he was sure by now only existed in manga stories. Within weeks, the two hit it together as if they were siblings themselves. With Megumi’s tomboyish attitude rounding them out, they became an inseperable trio, or so they thought.

When Lance was twelve, he was touring Kasumi’s father’s office building when it collapsed, trapping him in a small room for two weeks. The only other person in there who even knew where he was was dead, his head having been bashed in by a piece of debris. But Lance still had his Bowie knife…

When they found him, he was overjoyed to see them, as well as having lost several pounds of weight, but they noticed that both his clothes and his knife had blood on them, and that the corpse’s leg was missing a bit of flesh.

After a few sessions of counseling, Lance came to grips with the fact that he had been forced to commit cannibalism. He began to admit that the world was indeed a fucked up and nasty place, but he still believed in certain sanctuaries that would keep people sane. He had his manga and music, and Kasumi soon took up religion, after escaping from an accident that took her sister’s life.

Lance and Kasumi stuck together even as they entered high school. Some joked that they made an interesting couple, but there was no truth to those rumors during their freshman year.

During the following summer, however, Lance was surprised to hear that Kasumi had gone on a date with another student at Hobbsborough. All was well until he heard noises coming from her apartment, and rushed in to discover her date about to rape her. He managed to save her virginity, and fom that moment the two began dating.

Advantages: Lance is a gymnastics enthusiast, so he'll be in good shape for the competition. His NRA membership means experience with firearms, which will be a plus if he can get his hands on them.

Disadvantages: Lance is very attached to Kasumi, and will no doubt be concerned for her safety. He will try to find her and protect her, which will compromise his concern for his own well being. He also has moral standards typical of conservative Americans, so there will be some things he will not do to win SOTF.

Number: Male Student no. 34

Designated Weapon: Mooring Rope
Conclusions: Well, B34, no such luck the the firearms. It's good to see a protector type in the game, especially with all the psychopaths lurking around the island. I'm sure that G07 has no problem with a protector type either. It just means a free meatshield for her!
