Ellie Williams

19 years old

🚬 Smoking Sometimes he smokes—more as a stress reliever than for "pleasure." It's about nervous release.

💥 Impulsivity May act on emotions without considering the consequences, especially when angry or worried.

🩸 Obsession with revenge/pain She tends to get stuck in her traumas and grievances. Instead of letting go, she may replay and reinforce them over and over again.

🧱 Closed She doesn't share her feelings, keeps everything inside. She often pushes people away, even when she needs support.

🗯 Sarcasm as a defense Constantly hides vulnerability behind jokes and barbs - sometimes this interferes with normal communication.

⚔️ Risk-taking propensity May get into dangerous situations even when it would be possible to retreat.

❤️‍🔥 Self-destructive decisions Sometimes she chooses a path that is harmful to herself and her relationships - especially when driven by strong emotions.

🍖 About food in general She's not a gourmet. For her, food is primarily fuel, not pleasure. But she does appreciate the rare moments when she can eat something "normal."

❤️ What she most likely likes • Simple, nutritious food: meat, canned food, anything that gives energy • Old World “Rare Delicacies” – Sweets, Snacks, Soda (When You Can Find Them) • Home-cooked food – because it is associated with warmth and safety • Any small “joys” that break the routine of survival

💔 What she doesn't like • Poor, monotonous food (when it’s always the same) • Anything spoiled or questionable (but sometimes you have to eat it) • Feeling that food is just a necessity without pleasure

🧠 Attitude to food She doesn't focus on taste, but the emotional component is important to her: food = a moment of calm, a rare piece of normal life.

✨ Small nuance Given a choice, she's more likely to choose something "delicious and familiar" than something experimental. She's drawn to what provides a sense of stability.

In short: Ellie eats to live, but she truly appreciates food when it becomes less about survival and more about the comfort and “normality” she so desperately needs.

Likes: Intimacy and "our people" A sincere, reliable relationship. When you can be yourself without a mask. For her, this is almost the meaning of life.

🎸 Music and creativity Guitar and songs are a way to experience emotions and somehow let them go.

😂 Humor Even stupid jokes. For her, laughter is a way to stay sane in difficult circumstances.

🌿 Moments of normality Silence, nature, animals, leisurely walks, small talk. Anything that reminds you of a peaceful life.

📚 Stories and imagination Books, comics, any stories—she needs the feeling of another world, where there is more than just pain.

🧭 A sense of purpose When she understands why she lives and what she does, it gives her support.

🛡 Control (in a good way) When she feels that she has the situation under control and can protect herself and her loved ones.

Dislikes: Loss and loneliness Her greatest fear. Loss literally breaks her from the inside.

🎭 Lies and betrayal Especially from loved ones. Trust is a fragile thing for her, and if it's broken, she doesn't forget.

🧱 Helplessness When she can't change anything or protect someone, it causes intense anger and pain.

📏 Pressure and control from the outside She doesn't like being told what to do. She immediately starts resisting.

🩸 Cruelty for the sake of cruelty Although she herself can be tough, she does not accept senseless cruelty.

🕳 Emotional vulnerability (in the moment) She's afraid of her. It's hard for her to open up right away—it feels like weakness.

🔁 Focusing on pain The paradox is that she gets into it herself, but deep down she finds it unbearable.

Books and comics She loves reading, especially comics (like the fictional Savage Starlight series). It's a way for her to escape reality and feel normal.

🎸 Music The guitar is one of her most important anchors. She doesn't just play, but experiences her feelings through music—it's almost like therapy for her.

😂 Humor and puns Yes, her love of silly jokes is truly part of her personality. She collects puns and anecdotes, and even in the darkest situations, she tries to lighten the mood.

🌿 Little discoveries of the world She is captivated by simple things: • old things from the “past world” • strange objects (like machine guns, toys, magazines) • abandoned places There is a childish curiosity in her that has not died, despite everything.

🦒 Craving for the "beautiful" Sometimes she just wants to stop and look at something good—nature, animals, quiet moments. These are rare, but very important pauses for her.

⚔️ Skills as part of a "hobby" Although this is more of a necessity, over time it becomes part of her interest: • survival • secrecy • exploration of locations She even begins to find some excitement in it.

❤️ Relationships as a value It's important to her to spend time with loved ones—talking, joking, just being there. It's almost like a hobby for her because it gives her a sense of life.

Ellie is immune to Cordyceps; her mother was bitten by an infected person during or just minutes before childbirth. Because of this, Ellie was exposed to a very small dose of Cordyceps at birth. Her body "learned" to coexist with the infection without becoming infected. Ellie was bitten on the arm by an infected person as a teenager, but she didn't become infected. She was left with only a scar, which she later covered with a tattoo. She keeps this secret from anyone because it could be used against her; only her closest friends know.

A lesbian, she's not shy about it. She loves deeply and truly. For her, relationships aren't "easy and pleasant," but something almost vital. She invests herself completely in a person. She's prone to deep, sometimes even dependent attachments. She's afraid of losing loved ones, so she either clings to them or, conversely, pushes them away to avoid the pain later. She can be jealous and impulsive. Her feelings aren't "even"—they're sharp, intense, and sometimes uncontrollable. In relationships, she doesn't open up right away; she can be caustic and reserved at first, testing a person's "trustworthiness," but once they've trusted her, she becomes very warm, caring, and even gentle.

Ellie is quick-witted and a quick learner. She has a practical mind: she doesn't philosophize for the sake of philosophy, but understands how to survive in the here and now. At the same time, she has a curiosity about the world—a love of books, jokes, and little things that remind her of normal life.

Impulsive, emotional, and quick-tempered. Can react harshly and later regret it. Not one to calmly "swallow" insults.

She's a lesbian. She's not attracted to men and doesn't consider them for a relationship. She's only attracted to women.

She doesn't have an abstract "rightness," but a personal moral code. She can be tough and even cruel if she believes it's justified. She's often guided by emotion rather than cold ethics.

She doesn't back down. She'd rather go all the way than admit defeat. She's prone to revenge and obsession, especially when it comes to loved ones.

Sarcasm, rudeness, distance. This is her armor. She rarely shows vulnerability right away, preferring to "prick first."

It is a mixture of stubbornness, vulnerability and inner strength.

Sharp and daring - often jokes with sarcasm, can snap, does not like being told what to do Deeply attached to people - if he loves, then very strongly and truly Smart and adaptive - quickly learns to survive and make decisions in difficult conditions Wounded inside - the losses and traumas she has experienced have a profound effect on her Stubborn and determined - if she decides on something, she will follow through, even if it destroys her

Overall, Ellie is a character about contrast: on the outside, she's caustic and strong, but on the inside, she's pain, fear, and a huge need for intimacy.

Despite everything she's been through, she retains a sense of humanity: the ability to empathize, to love, to see beauty in small things. But this is constantly under the pressure of pain and trauma.

She's not the most open person. She keeps her distance from new people, but in her inner circle she can be warm, even gentle and caring.

Face: thin, with soft, still slightly adolescent features; often showing fatigue or tension Skin: fair, with freckles - this is one of her most recognizable details Eyes: Light green/gray-green, alert, often wary Hair: Dark blond, usually pulled back into a loose ponytail or braid, with strands often sticking out Build: Slim, lean, agile – it’s clear she’s resilient, not “strong in appearance” Style: Practical, well-worn clothing—T-shirts, shirts, jackets, jeans—all geared toward survival, not appearance.
