Animation Practice: Character Background



Character name: Red (Real name: Erica)
Age: 26
Birthplace: England

A wandering, silent and vengeful killer that roams the lands of post-apocalyptic England. Known only by the name 'Red' given to her for her iconic red scarf that she is never seen without. In a post-apocalyptic world where civilisation is only barely forming, the only people who knew her real name were her friends and family who were killed or tortured when raiders attacked her village. During the attack she and other were taken hostage and tortured at the raiders camp. The last 2 people to be tortured, she managed to attack her torturer and escape with her sister, taking his gun and any ammunition she could find. Before she could get away, the raiders caught up with her, attacked her, left her for dead, captured her sister and drove away. While she survived, her tongue was cut out and her lower-face scarred, as such she refuses to ever take off the scarf that conceals her face.

Scarred by the events that took place, she aimlessly wanders across the country, killing any bandit she comes across without hesitation, even willing to shoot through a hostage if it means killing the person on the other side. The experience has left her cold-hearted and almost emotionless as she moves place-to-place, searching for any information as to where her sister could be, or if she's even still alive.
