Elizabeth

The Lezareno family owns the Altamira Resort and hot springs, which has an attached ferris wheel and roller coaster, and a casino. It once brought huge numbers of tourists; having been rebuilt as a tall glass cylinder, with fine dining and shopping. While most of her family attends the family business, her father grooming her ‘gross stupid’ younger brother Theodore to take it over, she has gone on to be a nurse. She lives in a camper with a small cheap kitchenette, bed, and bathroom, which is all pink and full of stuffed animals hanging from the ceilings by nooses.

Despite dressing as a high class flight attendant, in all pink, black, and gold, she is not the least bit feminine. Elizabeth is a complete wackjob, the product of her family, all of whom are highly eccentric rich weirdos, the home of the executive and investor class; she choose to leave the stuffy and confining world of the hotel, to live a life of fun and adventure on Earth. Her family is worth millions, and has a long history of assassinations, sabotages, and other "fun" stuff that could raise that number significantly should many of them die.

Elizabeth however, wanted to have fun in the big wide world outside the hotel. To that end, she works as a nurse at the local hospital, though she is highly inappropriate about her love of gore and suffering. She is an amazing field medic with many annoying quirks, not the smallest of which is her love for making her own money by any means, and yaoi, she constantly tries to get Dean and Hunter laid for her own amusement. Hunter and Dean call her Bitch Tits, commenting on the inflating prices for her first aide, and both would rather have Anep be the one helping them recover than her.

Elizabeth adventures with a large but light shield and a small blue, almost crystalline looking gun.

Sheryl

Bisexual, Sheryl is actually a guy, despite his name, 6'0", he has gorgeous caramel skin, he is Portuguese from Brazil, with a black grandmother, he has a number of tattoos on the right side of his body, along the front and back of his torso down his upper leg and arm, in dark magenta smart ink, when his blood chemistry changes, for instance, under sexual arousal they glow neon pink, and under adrenaline they glow bright white. He is a model and cam boy for a living, but he works at a loading and unloading cargo ships when they land to keep his figure and keep him grounded, a total dom, though he’s bisexual he feels rather no emotional connection to women, he is very popular for sleeping with his fans and signing autographs, he however, cannot take sadism being dished back to him.

He is shady and kind of a creep, sleazy, and the butt of many jokes about him creeping on people or being a rapist, but when push comes to shove, nobody doubts that he would never cross that line and his friend’s trust in him is implicit. His preferred weapon is razor wire. He is very sketchy, a total sleaze bag, but is a good man at heart, and it’s all just jokes, he lives in an apartment in Seattle, earning a living as a e-sex boy, selling himself as the perfect boyfriend with a new fantasy each episode.

He is a jaded playboy whose emotions have become dulled and his heart numb, a lazy sleaze who only goes for one night stands, he works at a loading dock during the day to cover up that he's a gay cam boy at night. He now only finds meaning with his friends, not relationships, and is always quick to give a bullshit rationale behind his subdued feelings. His persona is that of the perfect boyfriend, and each show is a diffrent fantasy, rich boyfriend, football boyfriend, etc, where he dresses up, strips, and jerks off while telling a sex story, this is a persona however, and while he may sleep with his fans ocasionally wearing this mask, he will never use it on his friends because he genuinely cares about them and won’t lie for their affection.

He lives in one of the penthouse apartments in the new shopping district.

Hunter

Flippy - Bisexual

Hunter is tall 6'2", pale, gold eyes, mint blond hair with an undercut, revealing dark green roots. He has hairy legs but fuzz everywhere else, thick pubes, he is very lanky but shredded as fuck, born in 2055, he's one of the youngest Skullz. Hunter is a military fanboy and went to work as a mercenary when he turned 15, after his conventional basic training regimen he was fitted with a new experimental psyberware implant to give him psychic senses, however further training proved to stressful for the implant, the interferes fucks with his brain chemistry, giving him PTSD and fragments of a split personality, while it should let him know about enemies and other combat data the implant keeps trying to predict combat patterns based on psychic insight, creating a kind of fake, forced memory, literally a fase traumatic flashback. The defects in the implant detectors create "ghosts" as they overreact to residual psychic energy even when the originator is gone, though they don't always come from the dead. The implant does make him master at hand to hand combat, helping him develop expert strategizing and tactical problem solving skills, and gain the ability to wield any weapon he might find on the battlefield without prior knowledge of its specific operating principles, and give him savant shooting capabilities, essentially making Hunter an ace combatant with the skills of a war weary veteran with decades of service.

The few trainees with this new, powerful, but entirely experimental implant experienced some side effects, while Hunter gained skills equal to a highly trained and accomplished veteran he also developed PTSD and Dissociative Personality Disorder, although he has no actual memories of these events, he still has the traumatic experiences, when triggered, he takes on a highly confident, sleazy, violent, and aggressive persona that can make full use of his super soldier skills. Hunter suffer nightmares over these experiences, with his mind filling in the missing details with images of his friends, family, and his home, he is haunted by the deaths of friends and comrades, brothers, that are still alive, and sees his hands as having been stained by the blood of atrocities that have never actually happened. This has subjected Hunter to constant accusations of faking his war experiences to get attention, which is part of the reason he’s been adopted by Dean Shinwoo.

Hunter is a bit socially timid and nerdy, kind but shy, unaware of his sex appeal and charm, gets too caught up nerding out over Bear being an Alien to remember he was trying to get laid. He and the ‘other hunter’ share the same underlying personality and contectome, the other hunter simply has different traits at the forefront of his personality,  he is simply a different mask over the real Hunter, just a different elaboration of his personality. Hunter is descended from Americans, but is extremely skilled with the Russian language and much of his specific knowledge is about Russian weapons technology and military techniques - he likely is from a now defunct Russian paramilitary contractor group, since the experiment obviously failed, he was simply thrown out as a useless asset during bankruptcy.

Hunter is one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet, shy and quiet but also confident in himself and his value as a person, he is very strong willed, manly, but not loud - he is however, very dangerous under the right circumstances, though he has never harmed anyone, including himself, without sufficient cause, he is Dean Shinwoo's roommate and Dean has essentially taken legal custody of him, Dean, a veteran, will hurt anybody who tries to deny Hunter the respect a veteran is due, even if the war Hunter fought isn't real, he's still been to hell and back.

Hunter Adventures without armor, and fights with various styles of gun.

Dean and Hunter live inside a cargo container together, they have two bunk beds, one with a couch underneath and the other a TV, along with a small kitchen and fully stocked bathroom. There are plenty of windows and too many guns for anybody nearby to feel reasonably safe.

Dean

Mac Skull, born in 2037 in Imperial Americana, honorably discharged 2060 - Gay - wears inappropriately adult themed cutoff tee-shirts constantly. He is Hunter's legal guardian, he works double shifts on the factory farm to support himself and Hunter inside their cargo container of a home out in the chaotic older occupation era homes; though this RV is fully outfitted for the two men’s various hobbies and predilections, there are far far to many weapons, rounds of ammunition, and alcohol for anybody at the local tower to feel reasonably safe, however, responsible gun ownership is the rule of their home. The two confirmed bachelors are so bad at cleaning and daily home maintenance that it’s totally worth it to pay Anep to come clean for them.

Dean Shinwoo is of average height - 5'10.5", big shoulders, powerful chest, and rippling muscle, he had long hair always sticking upward in a wavy mess, his naturally light brown hair is dyed blond on the top of his head, combined with the green bandana he always has wrapped around his forehead, makes it look like, from the front, he has two totally distinct hair colors, blond on top, and all brown on the bottom. He has thick brown eyebrows, bright cyan eyes that are always half-lidded, and wrinkles give him permanent bags under his eyes. Dean doesn't look lazy though, his eyes are always bright, and his smile full of genuine merriment and cheer, though always with a hint of danger. He wears his dog tags around his neck, and his white wife beater has the shoulder area totally ripped and torn, he always wears pants evocative of a baggy military uniform and big belt, with his shirt tucked loosely in, and giant black combat boots.

Dean Shinwoo joined the military when he was 16 out of a very dumb sense of patriotism, he completed his training and was deployed to one of the endless peacekeeping wars that ravage the world. He had been rewarded for good work with a basic super soldier enhancement, his reflexes are extremely fast, his perceptions and situational awareness increased via drugs, his stamina heightened to the point he could go for two weeks without sleep as long as he got minimal rest during that time. He was deployed to war after war, he spent 15 years in the service before being hospitalized for a severe injury, which eventually resulted in his honorable discharge, the field treatments weren't good enough to fix a basically destroyed respiratory system, and the military washed their hands of him.

Disillusioned from the military and big money interests, he drifted all across America and Pangaea and always looking for something to believe in, he found Hunter, another victim of the military grooming its youth to fight on its behalf in the endless wars to sustain the global economy; eventually settling down in Seattle with Hunter, forming a group of ex-military and military enthusiasts as well as a field medic who bond over their military experience or need for first aid.

Dean Shinwoo has one final surprise for most people, hes’ 100% gay, his type, much younger bear cubs, the more innocent, the better, and he was a expert at taking a guys virginity without leaving a sour taste in their mouth when he didn’t come back the next day. He was a romantic sweetheart but preferred to remain unattached. Dean’s choice of non-lethal weapons was a Needle Gun, coated in a muscle relaxer,
he aimed for acupuncture pressure points, temporarily paralyzing a target, he used small, Japanese knives too, as close quarters hand to hand weapons, coated in a paralyzing agent that Dean's military enhancements made him immune too, but which would paralyze another person with just a scratch. His gear is military grade body armor, as well as a gatling gun as well as a smaller needle gun, he wears strips of needles wrapped all around his body like rambo.

Dotty

Straight Yaoi fangirl, dresses in a simple black dress highlighted by white lace, red hair, dark green eyes, she is very pale, she is an exceptional mecha pilot and accomplished musician, she loves to set Beck up with other men, she is otherwise quiet and well mannered, but very flat and emotionless. She’s actually a robot; inside her headband is a core memory drive containing a quantum light gate crystal with her fluctlight; salvaged when her original body died; she’s actually heavy enough to crush a car if she fell on it; to set herself apart from everyday androids and their perfectly human-seeming warm personalities, she acts cold and emotionless; stiff and robotic; speaking in monotone and displaying as little emotion as she can, though her facade slips from time to time; a very human trait. She plays piano at the bar and Altamira hotel, for a living. She needs no weapon; she can vibrate her hand or foot fast enough to cut through things.

Beck

Going by Beck only, 186 (6'1"), a buffoonish man with a gaudy taste for gold, he is quite tall and always found in a bright gold business suit with a black tie, with a curl of naturally golden blond hair, and golden brown eyes, a few shades richer than Mitsuo's honey brown. He is a womanizing sleaze who's also into dudes. He was a petty criminal in old new york, moving across the countryside always a step ahead of the authorities, eventually joining the Skullz in the old United States, where Mitsuo convinced him to go legit, starting his own weapons dealing firm just outside the Seattle Stacks in the huge swath of junkyards surrounding the city. While he may be a buffoon he is also a genius - a tech savant who can patch together any technology he finds, an IQ of roughly 210, but he's a classic underachiever who took to petty crime to get through life the easy way. His color scheme is gold and black, his taste is gaudy and tacky gold gold gold.

Beck is no introvert but he is an almost autistic weirdo, he has great charisma. He was too smart for school, and became a petty criminal in old New York City, the famous city of lights, with its downtown having been hit by a direct nuclear strike during the seven hours war. He ended up drifting across the county, committing progressively more and more sophisticated high tech crimes, before setting up shop as an Arms Dealer in the rump republic before the government could manage to pin any crimes on him.

He’s good at getting tech to do Science, he can hook up any tech system into any other tech system, including with effort, Insanon technology. Beck fanboys about the ‘Alien’ whenever in Anep’s presence, and for the most part Beck is a fanboy, but he is also still a sleazy but charismatic ladies man. Beck can't actually have a functional relationship, fuck yes, but love is too much for his lightning quick brain to deal with. He is the only natural psychic in the Skullz, his power is great enough that no scientific test in his vicinity can be taken as accurate, but primarily his ability allows machines to “yell back” at him, a form of technotelepathy.

Living in his own junkyard on the edge of Hellawes, with some greenhouses, and piles of old cars. He refurbishes military mechas and other robotic technology, weapony, and high technology, for his business, as a private technology contractor, focusing on cybernetics, robotics, and other heavy technologies, supplying people who would otherwise be unable to access this tech at reasonable prices, he even has access to decommissioned military technology, contracting with several local police forces and private security firms, as well as maintaining and refurbishing android companions and pet robots, and other such autonomous mechanical devices.

Beck has produced a technology called the Advanced Generation Device; this is a standard issue, if older, auto fabrication which is run by a trio of personality transplants based on Beck himself, these ais take relevant data and use evolutionary algorithms to enhance the products they produce; this device is used in Beck's work, but has also produced the highly specialized and useful armors and weapons the Skulls use in Ruin Delving; taking readings from sensors built into them and data contextual data to produce more advanced gear after each fight; often by using materials scavenged from the ruins themselves.

Rivals with Walker, sometimes bitter, sometimes friendly, both competing to be the smartest man in the gang, though Walker helps him out of programming jams every now and then; including with his Advanced Generation Device. He is equipped with two brain implant chips, running two distinct copies of his personality in parallel; which are always communicating with him to help him decide on the best course of action by providing him with an inner voice with two counter perspectives; these are two scaled down versions of the three AIs used in the AGD.

Whether they realize it or not; Beck and Anep only communicate by flirting; both are highly intelligent and both have a strong interest in each other's thoughts and opinions; unlike Walker, who finds Anep mildly annoying, Beck loves talking with Anep, and has a slight crush on him; with Mitsuo inviting Beck to have sloppy seconds from time to time.

Physically, Beck is a tall thin man, with no real muscle tone, and average amount of body hair; but Anep considers him one of the most attractive men in the gang. Beck Fanboys over everything Op̄tr, and loves the theorize about how they work even when they defy all human understanding; having figured out that the halo-like devices used for Op̄tr gravity control operate as Radion Accelerators to generate both gravity and anti-gravity; also figuring out this is how Anep’s halo works; simply producing light as a byproduct of the loop’s inefficiencies.

Beck created Mitsuo and Anep’s wedding rings by working small bits of Op̄tr metal, though he isn’t exactly sure why one of the metal rings on Mitsuo’s turned black. He performs maintenance on Dotty, but they consider each other Brother and Sister and have no romantic feelings for one another; she often tries to set him up on dates with men to fangirl over him.

Relationship Drabble - Pushy

Anep was a brat, and Mitsuo loved to play a soft, casual dom for him; letting Anep push against him without subjecting him to the pressure of being in control. Mitsuo made sure he felt like opinions were always heard; as long as you knew what you were doing it was pretty easy to push Anep around, he even enjoyed it. Submitting to Mitsuo whenever his dom put him back into his place.

In bed this dynamic was even more frenetic, with dirty talk, degradation, Anep trying his best to humiliate Mitsuo by taking charge and ride him like a greedy cock hungry power bottom, while Mitsuo would revel in how easily Anep would submit to him when he felt like it, and beg to be fucked harder or faster, deeper, asking if he was being good and to be rewarded.
