Hey there, so what's your name for starters?: Me? Oh well my name is Payton Clark...not that special right?
Interesting, and how old are you exactly?: I'm nineteen, but I'm told I could pass for older.
How exactly would you describe your physical appearance to others?: Well I'm actually really tall, like 6'4 tall...and kind of lanky really. I was never one for lifting weights and getting creepy buff, not to say that I don't care about how I look.. I actually do, but with the end of the world and all it's hard to do anything about it.
Ah yeah..moving on, umm my hair is this dirty blonde-brownish color. Depends on the light.And my eyes are blue. I also have this rather square jawline, but it's whatever. Some girls like it and others don’t. I just kind of got used to it. I've actually heard that I look like Aaron Dismuke, which is pretty cool.
Oh hey did I mention I have a tatoo! I got it when I was eighteen. It’s nothing special, just my first name on my left shoulder. Kind of funny now...in a morbid way. I guess if I die then someone will know my name.
Right....umm what’s the next question?
Alright now on a more personal level, what are some of your likes?: Likes? Okay this is more up my alley, I can tell you all about what I like. For starters I really like manga and anime. I mean I suppose I’m not as versed as most, I've been to a few expos but nothing major. Also, this might sound like a typical guy thing but I’m a video gamer. There you have it. Turns out I’m not too different from any other bros out there. Well unless you count the fact that I’m also a huge fan of theater. I was actually majoring in it before the end of the world hit. I tried to take up drawing but I wasn’t ever that great at it..guess now would be a good a time as any to learn. Anyway, I’m sure there’s a lot more that I like but I can’t recall what all that was at the moment. Sorry bout that, I think I have holes up in my head sometimes.
Very nice, now how about dislikes?: Hmm dislikes...well I hate spicy foods, math, messing up, having to work...stupid things. In a list like that they might not make a lot of sense so I’ll clarify. I have no tolerance for spicy foods. Math is a horrible subject. The messing up thing...well I did a lot of that in the past. It’s not that it matters now but there was my family that I let down almost all the time. And this one girl. She was my biggest supporter and I messed that up too..it’s not important. My lack of work ethic has changed, it had to. But that doesn’t mean I love the fact that I have to do everything on my own now. It’s actually kind of lonely.
Interesting. Now how about something that you fear?: The thing that scares me the most is finding my family as one of those things. I’m content not knowing what happened to them if they became a walker. If they’re alive and well then I wish them all the luck, I just really don’t want to know.
That's terrible! Now how about one really odd quirk of yours?: It’s dumb really but I can do impressions really well. I guess you could say I have a knack for altering my voice, or just acting in general. I suppose I could have done work as a voice actor but I’ve never been to sure of my skills so I made it more of a hobby then anything. I did have intentions of becoming an actor though. Not so much anymore.
Cool, now a brief history about yourself.: Well I had just started college when the fever broke out. At first I thought nothing of it, never called home, never bothered to really pay attention. I realized that it was a mistake when one night the college fire alarm sounded off, waking the entire campus. I was slow to get around, but only because I didn’t know it was the fire alarm till my roommate woke me up. When we got out to the hall there were students running every which way, no one was really sure where to go, and that’s when I caught a glimpse of...well I’m not sure what it was. I guess it was someone who was sick. I’ve seen more of them since then, the walkers, but that first one still stands out the most for me.
I only stopped back in my room long enough to grab some clothes, a blanket, small pillow and a few of my scripts before ducking out. I didn’t have a car, still don’t, so I walked to town, which wasn’t too far off and ever since then I’ve been getting by on scraps and things I find strung around. I’ve spent most nights sleeping in a dumpster. Seems like the walkers haven’t figured out how they open yet, which is find by me.
