Character Name
Tye McKidd
I Agree
Yes
Has this character appeared in a previous lore?
Yes
Age
28
Blood Type
Randomize it.
Personality
A fighter in his heart, Kidd has spent the last twelve years of his life researching for the future. It became quickly prevalent to him early-on during the apocalypse that the odds of things going back to how they used to be were slim to none. He has the tools to become a valuable ally to anyone willing to put up with his pompous, abrasive, know-it-all, arrogant, and sometimes simply downright cruel personality.
Character Motivations
Rebuild.
Tye is not alive without his ability to express his innovations and creative talents. His current goal is to find, or start his own community and get a solar-powered electrical grid going to build upon. From there, he wants to begin delving into the possibility of developing weapons and armors directly made to protect survivors on herd control duty.
Physical Appearance
An average looking man standing at five-foot-eleven with little regard for his own sense of fashion. He is built lean, with little muscle to show, has a narrow face with signs of acne scarring, brown eyes, long shoulder-length blonde hair, and stubble.

Biography
Who remembers much about the start nowadays? All Tye can remember are bits and pieces of his early life growing up in Cincinnati, Ohio with his one older half-brother, parents, aunt, and uncle. The rest of it all blends together for him now, even the start of the actual outbreak.
How has he survived since? Simple, Tye has used and manipulated people into protecting him. It started innocent enough with him admitting his inability to dispatch of Red Eyes due to an extreme aversion and fear that they were still human. This led him down other avenues to support groups; research and development - what would start as something to fend of boredom became his true calling. With each innovation, his value grew and grew until people simply stopped wanting him out on the frontlines due to the risk of losing him. It slowly sent him down a path of egotism, inflating his own self-worth, arrogance, and loudness - if there was a boundary he could step over, he did it simply to spite people he saw as inferior to himself.
Now, Tye has arrived in The Barrens after months of work on a project restoring an electrical grid through solar energy with his last community which recently fell with plans of calling a new community his home and grounds for invention and innovation. Will he succeed in his lofty goals of building over Brighton and the other larger factions? Probably not, but he sure thinks he will.
Would you like your character to start with any items?
I'd prefer to spawn in my own items, if at all possible, as I have to make a lot of special requests (including books relating to his specific line of research.) and some pieces of equipment. You can overview me as I do it if need be, it's just a lot to list without the HC Wiki.
It's also worth noting, Tye isn't near as smart as he thinks he is - he is capable by self-taught Wasteland standards and is a few pegs above most, but has mainly made his reputation based on sheer luck and time.
