Character Name: April Sinclair
Character Age: 25
Background: During the year 2089, a new sand-like substance was discovered by the UK deep within the seafloor of the Atlantic ocean which, when inhaled, held the ability to manipulate the genes of living things; it was even able to give organisms an extremely long lifespan. Because of its ability to either grant longevity or unique abilities to however who used it, the substance was dubbed “Evergreen”. However, the substance was volatile and there was no way of knowing before hand what it would do to its user and even then the results would not always be a profitable; it was capable of causing deformities, insanity or death. Because of this, Evergreen was kept out of the public and was rarely used on humans; information on the substance also never left the UK. However, at one point there was an information leak, either accidental or done by a mole and news of this substance spread across the world and soon other countries began to gather Evergreen for themselves to use on soldiers and other experimentations.
However, the demand for the substance became so high that the natural supply soon ran dry, so the countries began to acquire Evergreen from another source; each other. In 2113, a world wide war broke out which was dubbed “The Evergreen War.” The war did not last long however, as the highly volatile nature of Evergreen was underestimated, and the bombings of areas near where Evergreen was held in every single country led to a chain of cataclysmic explosions that more or less wiped out life on the surface of the Earth; only those who sought shelter underground survived while the substance distilled itself in the air. It took around 100 years before humans and other living things could begin to live on the surface once again. And even then Evergreen continued to exist in the air, and was especially thicker in the areas where the ruins that used to house the material. Because of this, some humans that were born on the surface after this were either granted abilities or were deformed in some way; it was also possible for both to occur. However, over the years humans soon began to develop an immunity against Evergreen, so the number of individuals infected by it became smaller and smaller. The animals however, continued to be affected by Evergreen and have now become heavily mutated, as well as gaining odd abilities.
Now, the world is split into factions of sorts; there are “Settlers”, those who have decided to stay within makeshift cities and settlements. “Lurkers” are those who live amongst the wastelands, enslaving, raping, killing and/or torturing those who walk the wastelands without protection. “Drifters” are those who travel the wastelands, although they are few due to the dangers of Lurkers and the mutated animals. And then there are the “Evers”, those infected by Evergreen and are casted away from everyone due to a combination of fear at their abilities and deformities and misplaced hate; because those who brought the death of nearly everything wielded Evergreen and thus the hate towards them is instead directed towards those who are now infected.
April Sinclair was born in the year 2267 in the wastelands of England, now known as the “English Wasteland”, in a city called Skegs, which was created from the remains of Skegness and the nearby remains of old planes and boats. Due to complications during prenatal development, she was born with a damaged left leg; the muscles had never properly developed and so she found walking on it difficult and painful, although she was given leg braces to aid her. Her father, Davis Sinclair, worked as the communications officer and electrician while her mother, Yasmin Sinclair, worked as a merchant; due to the fact that Yasmin was away a great deal of the time because of her occupation, Davis more or less raised April and taught her everything he knew about electronics. It was during this time that her incredible skills in dealing with electronics was revealed and when combined with her father’s encouragement, her skills flourished more so and she displayed the same level of skill when it came to working with both computer hardware and software. However, at the expense of gaining these skills, April spent more time with electronics than with people and was thus thought as being highly anti-social by the other residents of Skegs; the reality was that due to spending most of her time tinkering rather than interacting with others, she became uncertain of how to act around others and would end up becoming flustered. Alongside teaching her about electronics, Davis also taught her how to wield different types of guns so that she could protect herself, and she showed most skill in using sniper rifles. Therefore it was no surprise that April became incredibly close to her father and she grew up to become a cheerful, although highly shy, young girl.
When April became 15, her father began to notice that electronics would begin to act odd when she was around them; devices that would never have worked before now do so after she tinkered with them and some devices would do things that they were never suppose to, such as communication devices belting out songs, specifically old songs that April was fond of. At first Davis had ignored them and thought of them as glitches, until he heard from other residents that they saw April speak to an ancient TV screen and the screen seemed to reply, with answers appearing on the screen in response to April’s questions. It was at this time that April’s Evergreen abilities had manifested although it was highly different from usual; an Evers abilities showed themselves in the very early years and were usually random, while April’s were shown to be linked with her skills in electronics and didn’t emerge until she was in her teens. If anything, this made the residents of Skegs fear her even more and she was thus exiled into the wastelands; neither of her parents tried to protest against this and as she was sent out into the wastelands she saw the look on her parents face, the look of hate and disgust as they casted away their only child, even her beloved father thought her as a monster. Now with only her abilities, her sniper rifle and a damaged leg, April was casted away from the safety of her home and into the dangerous wasteland. Yet, April knew that they weren’t entirely to blame, after all she had feared Evers before she knew that she was one and if anything she hated herself; she hated how she was allowed to live a happy life before having it forcefully taken from her. The harsh betrayal that she suffered at the hands of all those she cared about, as well as showing her that humans were vile, evil, disgusting liars, twisted the once innocent girl into a cold, distant killer.
April wandered the English Wastelands alone; she charred and shot any humans that crossed her path. But after a few months she stopped; she just couldn’t see the point in killing, it wouldn’t change anything and she was only helping to add to the belief that Evers are mindless monsters. After that, she continued to wander the wastes, only killing when it was necessary and surviving by stealing alongside the random goodwill of a few Drifters that she came across. These seemingly small acts of goodwill had a great influence; even when she told them that she was an Evers, they still insisted on helping her. It was these acts that gave April the hope to not give up on humans, that there were those out there who weren’t liars and that she could still trust them; she managed to keep a hold of this belief even after witnessing the horrors that Lurkers inflict on others. Soon April began to act as something akin to a bodyguard for Drifters; although there was no way she could get into a physical fight because of her leg, she instead attacked from afar via the use of her sniper rifle and electrokinesis and used her technopathy to interfere with enemy communications.
Just after her first year in the wastelands that while travelling with a group of Drifters that she met another Evers, an old man named Quinton, who could control earth. He was similar to April in the sense that he wished to aid humans and he decided to travel with April. He was a very cheerful and optimistic man, and he taught April to do the same, to always remain hopeful even if the entire world is against you. Quinton also taught her the one piece of advice that she would hold close to her: “Never let the actions of a hundred condemn the lives of millions.” He taught her, that despite the betrayal that she suffered from those she cared about, to never give up on humans, that those who would aid her were in greater numbers than those who would hurt her. And he was right; during their travels through the English Wasteland, although they did encounter large numbers of humans that distrusted them, the number of humans who helped them was larger.
Quinton and April continued to travel together for another seven years, helping those who required it and to get rid of the stigma against Evers. It was during this time that April felt truly happy, she was helping to make a difference and she grew to love Quinton as a father; after all if it wasn’t for him, she may have lapsed back into the emotional state she had when she had left Skegs. But Quinton was an old man and he was only getting older; so he asked April if they could spend the last few days of his life in a nearby settlement. Although distressed at the thought of his impending death, she agreed to his request and they stayed at the settlement which housed a vast population of Evers. She stayed by his side at every possible moment before he died a week later, with April at his side in his last moments.
Although struck hard by his death, April took his teachings to heart and refused to let her sadness overcome her. Therefore, she decided to continue to wander the wastelands to help others as well as to get rid of the stigma surrounding Evers. However, before she left a younger Evers who had the ability to warp an individual’s perception of time insisted that she join April in travelling the wastes. The younger Evers, Michelle, also wished to use her abilities to help others in anyway possible and admiring Michelle’s enthusiasm; April agreed to take her along. They both now continue travelling the English Wastelands and have now turned their goals to helping others rebuild the country and bring it back to its former glory. Currently, they are in the ruins of Liverpool, now called “FC”, where April is trying to use her technopathy in order to help set up communications with the other once major English cities.
Personality: The main thing one would notice about April is her almost perpetual cheerfulness; she’s nearly always looking on the bright side and to see her in a somber mood is very rare. This optimism was brought about by the belief that there is no point in letting past sadness, anger and fear control you, and instead take life as it comes. Basically Quinton is the reason why she is the optimistic person she is today; he taught her to always remain hopeful, even when it seems like all the odds are against her. She has thus taken this advice to heart, and she refuses to give up hope; in her eyes it is always a matter of ‘when’ not ‘if’. This is a stark contrast to how she first was when she entered the wastelands; she viewed humans as nothing more than scum due to how her parents, especially her father who she adored, just threw her away when they found out she was an Evers. It was only through the goodwill of random Drifters and Quinton that she was able to see that her previous thoughts on humans weren’t true and it helped to shape her into the person she is now.
April is also a very friendly and easygoing young woman, although she isn’t as sociable as she would like; a combination of having a rather solitary childhood as well as being part of a group that receives a great deal of discrimination means that she usually isn’t sure how to act around others, but it doesn’t stop her from trying. This of course can lead to April becoming rather flustered, but being around Michelle, who is far more outgoing and energetic than her, forces her to come out her shell slightly. However, this still doesn’t stop her from getting nervous to the point of stuttering when in social situations that she is unfamiliar with, which only furthers her embarrassment. The only time that she is confident about speaking to others is via communication devices, since she doesn’t have to talk to them face to face. Her friendly attitude towards others is rather confusing due to the harsh environment she lives in; she simply finds it easier to treat others how she would like to be treated and see’s no reason in being cruel to others. But her easygoing attitude doesn’t mean that she will lie to make you feel better; if she feels that you’re being an idiot for whatever reason, then she will tell you so in most honest manner possible; if there is one thing April cannot stand it is a liar and she would never lie to someone, even if she completely despises them
Due to April’s demeanour, she usually appears less intelligent than she actually is; when people first met her they think of her as being oblivious and perhaps naïve, which is actually very far from the truth. As a result of living in an environment where the next person or thing wanting to kill you is just around the corner, April is very observant of her surroundings and she isn’t as oblivious as she appears. Because of this she is a very hard person to fool, and is usually very aware of when someone tries to manipulate her because of her impression of being an airhead. She also usually shocks others with her intelligence, especially in the area of technology although that’s her only real area of expertise, and she is more ‘street smart’ than ‘book smart’. Of course, the reason behind technology being her strong point is due to her strong enthusiasm and curiosity about it and despite how easygoing she is, she will become very excited over the prospect of examining any piece of technology and will usually try to dismantle it as soon as possible. The fact that her Evers abilities allow her to examine electronics in ways she couldn’t before only furthers her enthusiasm.
She has a great deal of confidence in her skills in dealing with technology, to the point that it almost seems like arrogance; she is aware that she can dismantle and hack into almost anything and she will have no problems stating so, she would probably gloat about it as well. However, due to the fact that she has a very mild temper, any attempts to deflate her ego will just result in her laughing it off instead of getting riled up. The reason why she is so confident about her abilities is because of how insecure she is about her crippled leg; she’s aware that it is a glaring weakness and that she can’t easily help others out because of it. So she therefore acts confident over the abilities that can help others in order to hide her insecurity and also draw attention away from it.
Another main factor about April is her incredibly mild temper, which is a result of what Quinton had taught her before. She doesn’t see much point in getting angry over small things and is thus able to keep a level head during confrontations. April usually prefers to think logically and plan things out before acting, and despite her tendency to become flustered, she is usually able to keep a level head even when under pressure. And because of her easygoing nature and patience, she isn’t the type of person to hold a grudge and the only times that she would even consider taking revenge on someone would be when they have hurt someone she likes for no reason. She can be serious at times, depending on the circumstances and if she is required to, but she usually refrains from doing so; the few times that she is serious it doesn’t take long for her to revert to her usual cheerfulness.
Yet, despite how cheerful and friendly April is towards everyone, there is a darker side to her. As a result of living in a place where one must kill to survive and having a few brushes with death herself, April holds a very nonchalant attitude towards death and killing. Her mindset is that you kill in order to survive; therefore she only kills when it’s necessary and has a great deal of trouble comprehending why there are people who see it as wrong. Killing dangerous individuals means that others will be safe and therefore thinks it’s practical to get rid of threats instead of allowing them to live, even if those around her think it’s wrong to do so. She also doesn’t hold any fear of death, and due to experiencing many horrors in the wastelands, April doesn’t seem to fear anything. And, despite the fact that it doesn’t seem to bother her anymore, the abandonment she suffered at the hands of her parents still deeply hurts after all these years, as she still loves them. As a result of this, she always avoids the subject of her past and it’s one of the few things that can truly get her angry. The hurt that she suffered as a result also means that, despite her affectionate attitude, she finds it very hard to trust others, even though she wants to; even Quinton found it very difficult to get to know her and by the time he died he still didn’t know what happened to her when she got sent into the wasteland. April would rather hide her pain behind her cheerfulness, and continue to try and aid others in any way she can while ignoring her own suffering.
Abilities: As a result of her upbringing as well as natural talent, April has a highly advice knowledge of electronics and their workings; if it’s electronic she could probably take it apart and put it back together within a couple of hours, even if she has little knowledge on what it is. She also able to easily hack into almost anything thanks to her knowledge of technology. When it became clear that she was infected by Evergreen, the abilities that she gained were directly influenced by her skill and she thus gained the abilities of:
Technopathy: April is able to psychically interact with electronic devices with either mental or physical contact within a five mile radius. This allows her to manipulate electronics to any degree such as using TV screens to broadcast a message and asking computers for usually secret information without the need of a password. April is also capable of transmitting what she is looking at; an example would be if she was looking at a plant, she would be able to act as a camera and show what she is seeing on a nearby screen. She is also able to send this across multiple screens as long as they are within range.
Electrokinesis: She has the ability to manipulate and generate electricity; however, she is still able to get shocked if she isn’t careful and generating too much electricity will eventually tire her out. The extent of her power is that she is able to manipulate any electricity within a five mile radius. April has also been testing out her electrokinesis on humans by manipulating the electrical impulses’ within the human body and use it against them, although she hasn’t had much luck so far.
April also has proficient skills in firearms, especially sniper rifles. This is due to how they allow her to attack from a long range and she has the patience to wait for a clear shot before firing; although she prefers them, she’s not really picky about the type of gun she uses.

She is also able to send this across multiple screens as long as they are within range.
Electrokinesis: She has the ability to manipulate and generate electricity; however, she is still able to get shocked if she isn’t careful and generating too much electricity will eventually tire her out. The extent of her power is that she is able to manipulate any electricity within a five mile radius. April has also been testing out her electrokinesis on humans by manipulating the electrical impulses’ within the human body and use it against them, although she hasn’t had much luck so far.
April also has proficient skills in firearms, especially sniper rifles. This is due to how they allow her to attack from a long range and she has the patience to wait for a clear shot before firing; although she prefers them, she’s not really picky about the type of gun she uses.
