Personality
An emptiness of a canvas in her youth, the innocence of a once six-year old girl wiped away to be replaced with the painted acrylic of a masterpiece, vibrancy throughout her visual. Shaped by the craft hands of an artist; Through the gloom, and depressive hint of times she’d dwell in her own protection, and in supporting her grandmother, the woman has grown in her independence. The ability to have the confidence with little-to-no aid in carrying out tasks in her own entirety. Aware of her strengths, and weakness, not allowing for their halting to do such; Independent in her thoughts, and in her actions. No one could change such, or steal away such from her. Perhaps it could be the reclusive trait in her personality; Disassociated from the attraction of being surrounded by clattering thoughts of opposing individuals, seclusion is something of desire for the woman. Keeping to herself, away from the trailing path of others, and isolated from the involvement of herself in problems. Leading to the inclusion of her dislike in cooperating; Uncooperative in an attitude, the snarl of her expression as the distaste for helping others is evidently shown. A stubbornness to put herself on the line for a group of people whom she’d not have a want to be around. She wants to do things for herself; For her own benefit; Even the littlest contribution, the woman won’t partake in. A selfishness Though, when she is forced to have an involvement, the woman is quite useful; Resourceful in the adaption of her ideas to fit the scenario, or problem at hand. Overcoming any form of difficulty in the perspective of a pessimistic style; The outcome could be dreadful, and gloomy, an idea to which many do not wish to visualise, however for Adelaide? It is a natural thought process. To doubt the outcome, even her own. Her grave has already been built before the task has been done, however her decisions, and opinions are beneficial for the majority as she’d give a sense of realism to those who think with their weapons, rather than their brains. Adelaide paints in a negativity in her lighting, however her personality proves otherwise; The length of time in the contribution of her grandmother, the care of her through a variety, has nudged the caring nature of the woman to reflect onto others. A blanket of an embracing care for others, their well-being, protection, and the list extends. Determination profiles in Adelaide, the determination to do everything on her own accord. To finish something; To head somewhere; Various examples of her determination in the inclusion. Intelligence has built through the years, outside of being book-smart, but street-smart in her tackle of problems, and situations. Aware of people’s feelings, and their mentality, the wiseness of the woman applies such to every circumstance. Forgiveness to those whom have hurt her, easiness to forgive them instead of shutting them out, and deflecting their apology. She will not hold a grudge. Her temper fluctuates through the day, a certain trigger could spark the match to make it go off, and her mood alters; The harshness of her temper is violent, and venomous in its spite. Hardened by the events of her life, the traumatised woman lives each day in the constant fear, and repetition of her prior; A slideshow of everything flashing behind her; A toy soldier.
Character Motivations
Determination in her core; Anger in the fiery depths of her demeanour; A flame in the care for others who surround her in their claustrophobic style; Motivations that inspire Adelaide in her daily life, to drive her to continue in the darkness of the world. To find a humble abode to remain for an eternity, to be secure in the trapping of four walls, yet a prized dream for the woman, the anxiety consumes her from the allowance of the assure of her ‘security’ forever. Like everything in her life, it’ll come crashing down. A drive to flee forever, and ever, so the omen doesn’t ruin that around her, or take her life. The omen being herself. The possibility of another taking her livelihood is a stagnant anxiety for the woman-instead, Adelaide has aspirations to “be the one to end it all”.
Adelaide’s main, and fixated goal is to remain alive; To remain in her own body, unharmed, and untouched by the evil that now calls the world ‘home’. To not have her life stolen from her by a simplistic scratch, or bite, but instead by her own hands; Open-palms in their crush of her life in a single flash; Pow, goes the gun. Beneath the depressive thoughts? The woman desires to be involved in a community. To be a name in the walls; To be a role of importance, and power. To be productive, and grow from her slump. Her hidden love for the opposing duo of girls, in their group of ‘The Rats’ has shown her a new perspective. One to be involved in a community, to have that sense of security, and protection. And perhaps, to even have a family of her own someday, too.
Physical Appearance
Adelaide was in her early twenties, or was assumed to be. After-all, the woman’s inability to rekindle her childhood, or age for that matter had withered through the apocalyptic environment. With ebony-coloured skin, and Afro-centric features, a daintiness or youthfulness contrasted with the woman’s often boxxy, or alternative clothing options. A conventional-beauty of sorts, Adelaide’s 4A textured curls flowed downwards into efficient, and healthy-locks. A dullness resides within the woman’s eyes, behind the woman’s circular spectacles; monotonous, and often temperamental, similar to the woman’s emotive-state. Her stature emphasises her daintiness, depicting gaunt in its portrayal of Adelaide’s 5’11” frame, and skinniness. She, however, has some meat to her despite her lankiness-residing in the woman’s thicker portioned lower-body.

Biography
On the nineteenth of June, 2002, an underweight newborn was monitored due to its premature birth and difficulties revolving around withdrawals of drug substances. The newborn was named Adelaide Abraham, an African-American that was born in Central Kentucky, to an absent biological father and drug addicted mother. Diagnosed with Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome from initial delivery, the ailment was managed with the use of medication. Remaining partially hospitalised for a month after her birth, her memories of her mother consists of short-lived visitation rights, and uncomfortable family dinners. Her grandmother, in her forties, adopted her in consideration of her mother and father’s absence, and regretted continuing the pregnancy past the initial stages.
From an early age, during kindergarten, Adelaide’s resentment and envy of children in the neighbourhood with ‘normal families,’ was apparent. The manifesting mindset of neglect and victim complex caused the woman to develop defense mechanisms, and provoked her to obliviously hassle and target other children. Due to her height, Adelaide’s strength was noticeably stronger in comparison to her peers, especially in sport activities; however, the blossoming teenage inappropriately projected her insecurities and irritations onto other children. Adelaide’s excuse to target specific children was due to their ‘childlike comments’ about her personal history, height and or heritage; oblivious and self-taught by parental figures. With specific interests, Adelaide felt outcast by her peers, especially the black community due to her supposedly acting more so ‘white,’ by their definition. Fortunately, the school’s psychological therapist perceived the young girl’s developing issues, and eased her into therapy sessions to encourage healthy coping mechanisms, doing so in coordination with her grandmother, Abel. Apprehensively, Adelaide’s involvement in schooling evolved through youth activities, such as; History, and Mathematics. In her own time, Adelaide had an interest for Photography. Over a singular schooling semester, the girl’s average grade improved excessively, and Adelaide was able to form a small friendship group at last.
The young girl’s fortunate transpired into misfortune as Abel, her grandmother, was diagnosed as being chronically-ill with declining health issues. Adelaide, having prior being taken care of by her grandmother, took responsibility for her grandmother’s care and began acting as a primary carer for the elder. To aside her disappointment for her ignorance of her grandmother’s diagnosis and yearning for support, a few disclosed cigarettes daily sufficed, and her prominent browsing through social media acted as the bare minimum to avoid her lack of social stimulation, and enforced selflessness. Continuously having support from her peers, despite limited activity, brightened the girl’s daily activities of care for her grandmother, and part-time occupations to provide income throughout the lacklustre days, beginning at the adolescence of six-years old through the simplicity of paper-routes, or the bare minimum, such as grass-cutting. Whilst multitasking her "part-time jobs" and schooling, Adelaide’s social life withered; however, her internet remained in dedicated rants of frustration, and sorrow anonymously.
Performing daily as her grandmother’s carer and functioning throughout the bore that is education, Adelaide’s initial limited knowledge about being a carer expanded, with her being able to perform basic tasks on individuals practically. In similarity, the girl’s basic knowledge of life developed, and by the age of six, the young girl would evolve into activities of risky-behaviour to illicit enough money to provide for her grandmother, and herself. However, prominently being more knowledgeable in theory opposed to actuality of prominent treatments, a constant blur consisted in the adolescent’s mind; absence of childhood, and parental figures. Disregarding her day-to-day routine, Adelaide, at the end of the day, still was that seven-year old girl, or at least attempted to portray herself as such. A swift transition, however, occurred through the rise of populated deaths occurring in the state, specifically Kentucky. As individuals began devouring each other and became characteristically more so violent, Adelaide’s fear adapted into defiance as she directed her grandmother into the storage-room, stockpiling to the utmost potential possible with the duo’s limited resources. Windows boarded with nails, curtains closed, and doors shut involuntarily; Adelaide remained in solitude with the sole person who cared for her throughout her supposed “childhood,” her grandmother, Abel.
Progressively, the utilities in forms of supplies, and medical supplies vanished and due to the withering supplies, on one specific fateful day, her grandmother began to transition into a diabetic coma abruptly. With the limited knowledge that she had, and supplies even, Abel diverted from consciousness and into her zombified-state. Prior to this, however, Abel warned her granddaughter to flee, which the woman did, to the quickest of her capability in the direction of worn-out buildings, and cars, which the adolescent would reside in for days, or the possibility of weeks. To her, each day portrayed itself as a life-time, and the young girl was unable to dissociate her reality of time to the realistic expectation of time, throughout her anxious state of consciousness. This reality, however, shifted into repressed memories-of sexual trauma, and abuse, occurring from an abrupt trafficking, and kidnapping of the young girl. The looming, or lingering presence of the young girl dissociated within the “Community”, and her childhood was dull; years passed, and even her sense of reality, until one fateful afternoon. Her repressed anger, and neglect caused the budding woman to strike one of her captors against the head, disregarding the possibility of the actions to occur afterwards; Until the signalling of security, the woman remained over the captor, awaiting for her own death and freedom-However, that freedom would come shortly and by her own accord. She’d proceed to snag the keys from the captor, and escape appropriately, to subside the severity of the actions-The woman did not desire “friendship”, or “to be rescued”. An acquaintance in the community, Chanelle, discovered the woman through her actions in an instance, the duo fled, accompanying each other throughout the opportunity. Eventually, the duo stumbled upon another woman, Maria, and adjoined forces together to remain away from captivity. At first, Adelaide was defensive, and even temperamental. She, however, has since affiliated herself with “The Rats”-But still, to this day, Adelaide is unsure what truly transpired throughout those repressed thoughts. Did they even truly happen, and where did the time go?
