Shane Rafferty

Name: Shane Rafferty Gender: Male Age: 18 Grade: 12 School: Southridge High School Hobbies and interests: Weed, classic rock music, cars.

Appearance: Shane is tall, about 6'2, and muscular, though most of it's hidden by fat. He weighs about 260 lbs, and while not super overweight, he's not in the best of shape. His curly auburn hair is shoulder length and parted in the middle, covering his ears and neck completely. Thanks to his Irish ancestry, he is unbelievably pale, and would look albino if not for freckles and the occasional sunburn. His face is rounded and friendly looking, with big brown eyes and a slightly mashed looking nose. He still hasn't managed to grow facial hair, which really annoys him. He wears a black Led Zeppelin T-shirt, dark blue jeans, blue and white striped boxers, short socks, and a pair of beat-to-shit black and white Nike low-top sneakers.

Biography: Shane grew up in a typical California middle class family. His dad is a part-time mechanic, his mom works at some boring office job, his uncle is a pot farmer who recently rediscovered the legendary strain known as Acapulco Gold. Shane gets decent pay working on the farm (which is legitimate enough that the authorities don't shut it down) and is allowed to keep some of the crop, which makes him quite popular among certain members of the Southridge student body.

Shane has worked on cars from a very young age, mostly old GM cars. After getting his license he's made it a habit to buy old junkers and fix them up well enough to drive them. Currently in his parents' driveway, pissing off the local homeowners' association, are a beater '64 Corvair van and a '71 Oldsmobile Cutlass in semi-decent condition. Five more vehicles are strewn around his uncle's farm in various states of disrepair.

Shane is smart, but a subpar student. In Sophomore year he took the California High School Proficiency Exam so he could coast through the next two years and not worry about credits. He doesn't do much in school except hang out with friends, and he almost always skips out early to cruise around with friends in whichever car is leaking the least amount of oil and/or transmission fluid. He usually listens to Creedence, Deep Purple, and of course Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. There isn't much music less than 20 years old that really interests him.

Shane is easygoing most of the time, but he can get violent when provoked. He's been suspended occasionally for fighting. Usually it's trivial shit, like a kid says "Led Zeppelin sucks" and gets a bloody nose. Sometimes it's...more than that. Sophomore year, Shane's cousin Casey died in a car accident. Shane wasn't that close to her, but she was still a friend. A Junior walked right up to him and said "Casey was a whore." Shane grabbed him by the hair and slammed his face repeatedly into the edge of a locker, almost putting his eye out.

Advantages: Shane is familiar with guns, though he hasn't shot much of anything bigger than a gopher. He's fairly strong, and a good fighter. He's had psycho girlfriends before, so he won't be overly trusting of women.

Disadvantages: Shane is...not subtle. He's big, he's sometimes clumsy, and his voice is naturally loud. He also has a hard time running for very long. Shane is very likely to want to protect or avenge people, whether or not doing so would be in his own best interests.

Designated Number: Male Student no. 105

Designated Weapon: Type 77 Pistol Conclusions: Really, B105? You've had girlfriends before? ... Are you sure it wasn't Palmela Handerson you're thinking of? Ah well, no matter. I think he'll wind up being a protector... but I don't know what of, seeing as he's not exactly trusting of women. I dunno... he'll wind up getting killed pretty quickly. The only chance this kid has is if the island is suddenly attacked by raging gophers.
