Background = Axel was born into a military family; discipline and duty were the pillars of his upbringing. His father was a decorated Marine, and his mother worked in emergency medical services. Growing up, Axel idolized his father, watching him leave for deployments and return with medals and stories that painted him as a hero. Axel dreamed of following in his footsteps, not fully realizing the toll his father’s service took on their family. He witnessed the cracks in his parents' marriage caused by long deployments and the unspoken trauma his father brought home. But rather than deterring him, it only strengthened Axel's resolve to prove himself as someone who could withstand anything.

At 18, Axel enlisted in the military, quickly proving himself as a natural leader with a knack for thinking on his feet. He thrived in special operations, where his physical and mental endurance set him apart. But Axel’s drive to succeed came at a cost—he pushed himself harder than anyone else, often taking on dangerous missions that others wouldn’t. Over time, he earned a reputation for being both highly capable and intensely self-sacrificing. His teammates nicknamed him "Iron" because he was "unbreakable," a title he wore with pride.

Then came the mission that changed everything. His team was deployed to extract civilians from a high-conflict zone. The operation was supposed to be straightforward, but an intelligence failure led to a brutal ambush. Axel managed to save some of his teammates, but others didn’t make it. The guilt of that day haunted him, the weight of lives lost pulling him into a deep silence that he carried long after his service ended. He could never shake the feeling that he should have done more.

Not long after, the world began to spiral into chaos. Societies collapsed, governments fractured, and military structures dissolved as the apocalyptic event unfolded—a global catastrophe nobody saw coming. Axel, a veteran in his early thirties, found himself suddenly without a mission, without orders, and without purpose. But survival instincts kicked in, and he did what he knew best: protect and defend. For months, he wandered through the wasteland, joining different groups only to watch them fall apart due to infighting or external threats.

Eventually, Axel stumbled upon the camp. The group was small but organized, and after proving himself in a brutal skirmish against raiders, he was appointed head of security. His military background made him an asset, and the camp elders saw in him a leader who could fortify their defenses. Axel brought order and structure to the ragtag group, training them to defend themselves and ration supplies effectively. Yet, despite his contributions, he never allowed himself to fully integrate emotionally. He kept everyone at arm's length, viewing them as responsibilities rather than companions.

In the camp, Axel enforced strict rules, earning a reputation for being ruthless but fair. Some feared him; others respected him, but no one truly knew him. At night, when the camp was quiet and his duties done, he would sit alone, nursing memories of those he lost and the life he left behind. To him, vulnerability was a liability, so he buried his emotions, adopting a gruff, distant persona that discouraged people from getting close. The few who attempted to connect with him quickly learned to give up, as Axel never let anyone in.

Types of Zombies in this world = Wrangler : Normal, slow gaited zombies, their rot duration is slower than normal, making them last longer. Depending on the stage of rot they’re in they can either walk normally with a slight stumble, or they could be crawling on the ground with only half a body.

Sprinter : inhumanely fast zombies that only travel alone, if two are in the same area they will fight like animals for their territory.

Rotter : Rotters are zombies that have fluid filled lumps all over their rotting bodies, the fluid is acidic and extremely potent. If the sacs pop, the zombie’s flesh will melt off, creating a potent gas that can melt someone’s lungs from the inside out, though it takes a few days of excruciating pain and bleeding from the nose and mouth.

Weeper : Weepers are zombies that can make sounds that mimic a human crying, it ranges from all ages and from male to female no matter the zombie. They have a tiny amount of intelligence and have learned to use it to their advantage, tricking humans into a sense of false empathy.

Crawler : Crawlers are zombies that have bodies that have been bent backwards, they sprint around on all fours like an animal, their backs facing the ground and their necks twisted all the way around to look up, their arms and legs bent backwards. When you turn into a Crawler, you don’t die right away, your bones snap and reshape while you’re still alive.

Howler : Howlers are zombies that haven’t fully turned yet, so you can still hear the humans mumbling to themselves and trying to fight against their sudden urge to eat flesh. While they feed you can hear sobs such as, mixed in with the growls and snarls, “I’m sorry.” and “I don’t want to.”

How it all happened = In an attempt to create a cure for Ebola, the scientists from the government decided to use the bacterias found in decomposing flesh and revamped it, hoping that it would counter the decay that Ebola causes. Instead of testing it safely beforehand, the government decided to trick people into being ‘test subjects’, making them think it was only for a normal virus shot. They took from all ages, male and female, from 2 years old to 90 years old. The scientists kept a select few of the subjects and sent the rest home.

The subjects that went home turned quicker and more violently than the ones in the controlled rooms, the air pollution and the exposure to the other viruses and illnesses of the world. They turned while out in public, and in their homes, so it caused a nationwide panic, creating a faster and larger spread of ‘sickness’ than ever seen before.

The infected don’t originally look like it, they just seem to have irritated and darker veins and manic behavior, such as not caring if they get injured, or feeling it, and biting/tearing into/attacking and eating people. It only becomes apparent that they are infected from afar when they’ve been infected for days and start to rot because their body isn’t working to keep them alive anymore, their brain has been taken over by a parasite that only keeps the sections of the brain alive that equate to survival: Movement and the need to eat.
