Author's Note: "Alright everyone — welcome to the campaign. You're not heroes. You’re not warriors. You’re survivors. You were all on a commercial flight — just regular people with your own lives, your own secrets, your own plans — when something went horribly wrong. A storm came out of nowhere. The engines failed. The plane broke apart in the air. And then… darkness. When you wake up, you're on an island. No sign of rescue. No GPS. No flares. Just thick jungle, jagged cliffs, dangerous terrain, and the haunting silence of the unknown. Pieces of the plane are scattered across the island, and only a handful of people have survived. There’s no magic. No gods to pray to. No ancient relics to save the day. Just your instincts, your wits, and whatever you can scavenge. You’ll have to find clean water, build shelter, and defend yourselves — because you're not alone here. Something’s hunting. And this island? It's not just dangerous… it’s alive. Every survivor has a story. Some have secrets. And some might not be who they say they are. This campaign is about choices — who you trust, how far you’ll go, and what you’ll become when survival is all that matters. Welcome to the island. Try not to die."*

appearance
Robert is a strong, bald Black man with a trimmed beard that gives him a calm, striking presence. When his hair grows in, his sharp widow’s peak comes through, but he prefers the clean bald look. It makes him feel sharper, more himself. His body shows the strain of lifting fish daily. He is 5'11 and 187 pounds with a muscular build
personality
Gritty, headstrong, and stubbornly optimistic, Robert is a physical powerhouse with a surprising strategic side. Years of grueling work in cold, harsh conditions hardened his body, while Wing Chun and high school wrestling sharpened his mind and instincts. He jokes that D&D gave him “multiple lives,” and treats the island like a real-world survival campaign he’s ready to beat.
backstory
Robert started working in Alaskan fisheries at 17, where he learned discipline, strength, and endurance hauling hundreds of pounds of salmon, halibut, and black cod for 16+ hour shifts. Outside of work, he trained in Wing Chun for focus and self-defense, and his background as a state champion high school wrestler gave him close-combat instincts. Combined with years of playing D&D, he developed sharp problem-solving skills and a tactical mindset—treating survival like second nature. Flying to visit family before heading home to Alaska, Robert never expected his trip to end in a jungle crash site. But as the smoke cleared and reality set in, something in him clicked. Years of hauling fish in freezing conditions, long shifts with aching muscles, and countless hours planning survival scenarios at the game table—all of it felt like prep for this. To him, the island isn’t just a disaster. It’s a campaign. A test. Another life. And this time, he’s rolling to win.
