Name:Alan Campbell
Gender:Male
Age:17
Hometown:Helena, MT
Hobbies and Interests:Baseball, Debating, Student Council, Videogames

Appearance:A top baseball batter and pride of his school, Alan Campbell definitely looks the part. At 6'0" he stands taller than most of his classmates and weighs in at 168lbs. His messy blonde hair is loosely cropped, though he generally combs it down for formal events. His facial features are somewhat light, with a thin nose and thin lips.

As he is frequently involved in various events, Alan is often seen wearing formal clothes and his school blazer, or wearing his baseball uniform. His more casual wear generally consists of long sleeve shirts and trousers, and a gray hoodie when it is cold out.

Biography: Alan Campbell was born in December 2013 to Cynthia and Ian Campbell, a pair of young attorneys running a small legal practice in Helena. As an only child, Alan was showered with attention, and soon grew up to be a healthy young boy. When the virus struck in 2020 Ian was out of town on a business trip and was unable to contact his family for a week. This had a profound effect on the young Alan, impressing on him the enormity of the threat the US had found itself under.

It was during the months after the attack, at one of the 'Unity Events' organised by the local community, that Alan got his first proper taste of Baseball. Playing with a full team for the first time, Alan found an escape from his fears. Encouraged greatly by his parents and teachers, Alan began to spend more and more of his time practicing the sport, joining a Minor League team and playing whenever he got the chance. By the time he reached high school Alan was already beginning to show himself as something of a prodigy.

The praise he received for his batting helped Alan open up, and by the time he reached high school he was a very sociable young man. Upon entering Helena High School Alan joined a debating team at the behest of his parents, and the experience proved both enjoyable and helpful for him, providing a chance to develop his public speaking skills. Seizing on this, Alan's teachers encouraged him to join the student council, and in year ten he did.

As time passed, Alan's batting skills only continued to develop, and he soon became something of a golden child for the community. Several members of the Helena Brewers, the local team, took an interest in his development, and Alan soon developed a close friendship with these players based on mutual respect. Heralded as a star player in the making, Alan has even attracted attention from outside Helena, and it was through one of the talent scouts coming to check on this baseball prodigy that Alan was selected for Arena.

With baseball practice, study, debating and student council meetings taking up much of his time, Alan rarely has free time to hang out with his friends. When he does go to parties, gaming and movie nights are usually the style of the event. Alan has never really taken a liking to the drunken parties some of his classmates partake in, preferring quieter gatherings. When he manages to spare some time for himself, he spends it playing the shooters and fighting games his friends play at parties, though he often chooses to take extra baseball practice instead.

Politically, Alan has been highly patriotic ever since the attack, but his debating experience has taught him to always question everything he is told. He tries to make the right ethical choice on every issue, and this has led him to hold some views contrary to the government line. He views Arena with distaste, but rarely expresses his opinions on it or its participants.

DESIGNATED PONG (Orange Player)

Designated Weapon: Broadaxe

Conclusions: Now this is the kind of All-American contestant we like to see here! Popular, baseball star, debater, I wouldn't be surprised if he bleeds apple pie filling. I'm sure that'll make him a fan favorite, though I'm not sure how far he'll actually get with a weapon that heavy.
