Backstory
For most of his formative years he was always the small kid in class, constantly bullied and harassed, so he mostly kept to himself. In this time alone he spent most of it drawing; Anything that he could think of or see, he sketched out in a notebook he always carried, the rest of the time he spent with his crazy uncle Devin Forester. Pre outbreak, most people would have seen Devin as a lunatic, a doomsdayer, and outcast, but Caleb loved his crazy stories and conspiracy theories.

On Caleb's 19th birthday is when the mutations began. The infected monstrosities hit hard and fast in the rural areas, and Caleb was just able to escape with the help of Devin, who led him and his younger sister Eliza to safety in his doomsday bunker; leaving behind their parents, who they could already see being slaughtered.

Three years were spent in that bunker with Caleb, his sister Eliza, and Devin. He taught us how to defend ourselves in that time, how to stay hidden, and how to live off the land if needed for survival. Until one night, while dining on the rations that had been saved, Devin started clutching his chest, and fell to the ground. Caleb and Eliza had no idea what to do and sat in shock, holding each other, as their uncle lay still on the floor. Not knowing what to do with the body, they placed it beneath the ice cooler, hopefully keeping the smell from spreading.

Another year passes, a quiet year. Caleb studied whatever book he could find, specifically on the medical and first aid books which were available, and Eliza focused more of her martial arts. Unfortunately neither of us focus on the resources we were consuming. Food ran scarce, and finally they were left with the only thing left to eat in the cooler. Caleb and Eliza spent a great time discussing with each other and finally arrived at the decision to open the doors, and venture back into the world.

The expedition outside was short lived however, as they had both revealed the entrance to their hideout right as a group of ruthless bandits immediately stormed us and began looting what supplies we had left. We both tried to fight them off, Caleb wasnt able to as he was bound and gagged, and hauled off; his last sight being that of Eliza fighting off these bandits.

On the route to the bandits hideout, the group was ambushed by a group of monsterous creatures. Caleb didnt get a good look, as he managed to removed the blindfold, he saw one of the bandits ripped in half, and that was the last he saw, as he took off in the opposite direction, not looking back.

This is where we find Caleb now, alone, scared, but surviving on the teachings of his late uncle; fueled by his relentless search for his sister.
