EvacMedic
Fields: Leadership, Teamwork, Backpacking, Evasion, weapon fabrication (melee)
Qualifications: Very, very basic in all counts. I am not by any means a full fledged specialist by anyones standards but my own. I am simply a self-made individual. I work at REI, a camping and actionsport store, which accounts for Leadership and teamwork. Evasion is simply my Forte, I'm a big fellow, but I've avoided the public eye for years. Backpacking is also covered in my years worth of work at REI. I've always enjoyed the fabrication and manufacture of Melee weapons. Piping, pieces of metal, rocks, sticks, alterations to existing weapons or objects to make them more effective. I've been doing this for quite a while, and the only reason I call myself a specialist in any of these areas... is because I believe that I am. I work hard at each point on this little list, and I ask for help to learn and better myself.


The_Professional
Fields: Leadership, Strategy and Tactics, Weapon fabrication, Planning and Preparation, Wilderness Survival, First Aid/CPR
Qualifications: As a lifetime Boy Scout and Eagle Scout, leadership has been a constant demand in my life. Not to say that people have asked for my leadership but it has been something that I have been taught to take up when necessary. This also accounts for my wilderness survival as we are also taught to live off the land in times of hardship and how to survive harsh conditions. For years it has always been important for me to understand my surroundings not only for zombie threats but for human and natural threats as well. Everywhere I live has had an escape route planned and designs for fortifications using my surroundings to the best of my abilities. I am always theorizing about more efficient ways to eliminate zombie threats and how to best protect myself and others. Since I am on the low end of income I have never owned a firearm, improvisational weapons typically come in the form of melee weapons. My latest project is turning a machete into a halberd. Simple really but I'll leave that post for the weapons section when its complete. My Medical Assistant education has given me the ability to treat wounds at a basic level and I am certified First Aid/CPR through Red Cross.
