Jack WrightJack Wright is Jed’s younger brother and his
right-hand man. Many call him a watered down version
of Jed, but never to his face. He is smart, but not quite
as smart, bold but not quite as bold, but also not quite
as brutal as Jed. He is good with numbers and oversees
much of the financial and personnel issues for the Wright
Trading Company

Ian WilsonSheltered whom accompany Jack Powers out of the Iron Shelter. He's a few years older than Jack, but remarkably immature. However, his oldest brother was with the original group, and his disappearance has kindled within him a kind of strength. Ian always was smart, but refused to apply himself, since he never really saw the point, since he didn't really want anything that the enclaved society had to offer him, regardless of performance. Now that he has a chance to save his brother -and- make a legend of himself, he's ready to take the world by the throat5

Jessica Branch Sheltered whom accompany Jack Powers out of the Iron Shelter. Only a few months younger than Jack, they grew up together. Although they've been good friends for some time, she's always resented that he was the smartest one in the class, and she was always second best, no matter how hard she applied herself. Of course, this resentment is mostly used to hide her unrequited love for Jack, as this results in the conflicting emotion of being smarter than almost everyone, yet still not good enough to get what she wants. In truth, she'd been waffling about leaving the security of the shelter, but when she'd heard that Jack was going, her exact thought was 'this is my chance!' Whether her feelings, or she herself, will survive the tumult of the Outside is yet to be seen4

Jack Reynolds Jack Reynolds grew up much like every other citizen of the Iron Shelter. He received a basic education in reading, math, and history. In his teens he applied for and received permission to train as a technician, to maintain and repair all of the technical systems keeping the shelter running. But Jack wasn’t content to simply maintain the systems, he wanted to see if he could do better. He studied all the technical manuals the vault’s library had to offer, and figured out ways to increase the efficiency of the shelter. He developed several new techniques to decrease energy consumption and increase food production. The latter achievement especially made him popular among the citizens of the Iron Shelter. By the time he was in his mid-forties, Jack decided to run for a seat on the council and was elected in a landslide.-3

Abdi JohnsonAbdi Johnson grew up in the Iron Shelter and hated it there. He felt confined, and wanted to go someplace where not everybody knew all the details of your entire life story. He dreamed of escaping the shelter to explore the surface. By the time he reached adulthood he had mostly given up those dreams, and consigned himself to a life spent underground. He even considered marrying Kim Olsen even though he didn’t love her, simply because there weren’t a whole lot of options. He spent most of his free time maintaining the shelter’s supply of guns and practicing his shooting using paint balls. When the opportunity came up to explore the surface, Abdi was elated. He used his connection with Kim to influence Kim’s mother, one of the ruling council, to gain a spot on the expedition. Now that he’s experienced the freedom of the world beyond, he doesn’t want to go back. Abdi is a man in his early twenties with caramel skin, brown eyes, and black hair he keeps closely cropped.1

Chelsea Vang Growing up in the Iron Shelter, Chelsea was eager to learn everything she could about the electronics and machines all around her. By her teens, she had already studied all the machines down in the shelter and pored through most of the books in the library discussing other pre-war technology. She marveled at the ingenuity it took to create this technology, and dreamed of finding some more in real life. When the opportunity arose to explore the surface, she was one of the first to volunteer. Because she knew so much of the pre-war world, the council ultimately decided she would make a fine addition to the team. Despite her traumatic experience with Mr. Fix-It and his crew, she still thinks there is more to learn on the surface, and more importantly, much to teach. She is horrified to hear some people refer to technology they dont understand as “magic” and does everything she can to illuminate the minds of the world. She also dreams of undertaking massive engineering projects, like restoring electricity by repairing a hydroelectric dam or wind turbine. Chelsea is a woman in her mid-twenties, with shoulder-length curly brown hair. She wears a pair of glasses whose lenses were customized for her, but the frames are recycled from one of the original survivors, and they look thick and bulky on her slender face.1

Crayon Levy Crayon “Cray” Levy was born to parents who both made a living searching for scrap in the ruins of Duluth. Her father died young, before his second child, Cray’s sister Rose, was born. Cray spent much of her time helping raise Rose, and the rest of the time learning everything her mom could tell her about how to find the most valuable scrap she could. A few years ago Cray’s mother died of an untreated infection. Cray continued to scrap, until Rose convinced her to take a safer job working as a porter for one of the Wright family caravans. Rose even helped Cray get the job through her “friend” Cal Wright, despite the fact that Cray disapproves of the relationship and suspects Cal is trying to seduce Rose. Cray might not have gone along with it, but she needed the better pay to pay off a debt she accrued to the Wright family purchasing medicine for Rose. Cray got relatively easy treatment from the slavers after she told them all she knew about Wright Town. This upset some of the other slaves, but her only regret is that it might have put her sister in danger. Cray wants to leave Wright Town for good and join the heroes, the only hurdles she needs to deal with are the debt she owes the Wrights, and convincing Rose to also join.-1
