Eden NPC's

Key Figures

Korby
Korby
Corvid Affinity, Delta
A bit of a stoner, Korby was very involved in Burning Man and other deliberate-community festivals, specializing in building "useful art," out of things he scavenged from the terrain and other festival-goers. He continues to build helpful shelters, storage spaces, and other bits of survivalist engineering for the folk at Eden. There is always a small bed of "Korby's goods" to provide him with smokables as a Thank You for his contributions. Korby's always followed around by corvids, who flock to him. He speaks to them as if they were people, and have given signs of understanding him and speaking back. They have warned him of impending trouble before.
Tiny Tim
Tiny Tim
Able to fold space to create large spaces hidden within small edifices, Delta
Tim is a 7'5" tall man who hit puberty early and was nearly 6 ft tall before leaving elementary school. He was teased mercilessly as a result, which originated his nickname, and always hunched himself into the smallest shape possible. In the Manhattan incident, he disappeared into a tiny pocket dimension from which he only recently emerged to find the island drastically changed. Tim is deeply empathetic to those who are outcast and bullied, and upon re-emerging in Manhattan, he found many who solicited his sympathies. He had been a tiny home aficionado before the incident, and he now found himself able to create micro safehouses with surprisingly accommodating interiors. He is a quiet man who does his best to fold himself into the background, but he has been instrumental in sheltering the needy of Manhattan, including some who fled the fall of the first Eden. He has brought some home to the new Eden and is actively engaged in maintaining safehouses for others who are still in need.
Plisskin
Grand Bradshaw aka Plisskin
Reptile Mutations, Beta/Gamma
Grant is a humanoid reptile. When properly heated, he has well above average Abilities. If he gets cold, his abilities all drop to well below average and he becomes very lethargic. Having had to defend himself over the years, he has become a very good fighter. Grant has very reptilian features, complete with nictitating membrane. He is tall, lean, muscular and has very small scales over the entirety of his body. He wears heavy clothes in multiple layers. He carries hot water bottles inside the front pocket of his hoodie, when he cannot find any survival heat packs to use.

Grant is fairly shy and soft spoken. He has always been a bit different and has dealt with being bullied his whole life. He now finds himself physically imposing to most people, something he finds most distressing. For all that he dislikes "pushing his weight around" he has learned to survive in Manhattan and he needs food, shelter, and heat. He has decided to survive, but longs for a better way. Oh, and the name? He didn't choose it. Some old guy started calling him that when he first arrived and started spreading it around. He's not really sure why.




Missing in Action

Those still missing in action after the attack on old Eden.


Tantrum
Tantrum
Super Sensory/Physical Awareness, Enhanced Reflexes, Beta
Short in stature but big in personality is Tantrum. Five feet tall and almost as wide, sporting a long beard with singed tips, he is sometimes just referred to as "The Dwarf". He and his brother, Temper, operate a garage and shop that mainly focuses on auto-repair, which is mainly the purview of Temper, while Tantrum uses the shop for other purposes, such as salvaging parts and sheet metal to upgrade his own large, over-muscled vehicle (lovingly referred to as "The Tank"), which he uses to distribute food from Eden, or constructing explosives for the defense of his chosen tribe, in case anyone tries to take what they have. He is primarily a wheelman and one-man dwarven demolition team.


Others around him don't really know his birth name, but when they first hear another refer to him as Tantrum, they understand why. He is quite the emotional person, and will not hesitate to tell whomever is around exactly what he thinks. Tantrum becomes overly protective of those that are his family, which can either manifest as a rage of violence against their oppressors, or by nagging and mother-henning those he cares about to death. He will impose himself between danger and others, and can take a punch. Naturally a thrill-seeker, he will take people up on almost any dare, and loves yelling "STUNTS!" as he executes feats of danger and excitement while driving.
