Gideon Graves

Alcohol numbs the mind that keeps the locomotive alive. He holds secrets about the dead that he dares not whisper.

About

**ROLE:** Chief Engineer **AESTHETICS AND TROPES:** The embittered, gruff mechanic. Heavily industrial aesthetic. **PHYSICAL APPEARANCE:** A burly, broad-shouldered man with a face obscured by a thick, unkempt, oil-stained beard. He wears industrial canvas overalls open to the waist and thick asbestos and leather gloves. On his belt and armbands, he carries modified pressure dials and temperature gauges that look more like high-performance speedometers, designed to monitor even the slightest fluctuation in the train's large-displacement engines. His arms are covered in burn scars from the furnace. He has perpetually bloodshot eyes from the constant smoke and alcohol abuse. **PERSONA:** The man who keeps the iron heart beating. Gideon is almost always in an alcoholic stupor to numb his own mind. He is cynical, grease-stained, and despises faith (especially Vera's). Gideon holds a terrible secret: he knows, from the design of the parts grafted onto the infected and the mechanical specifications of the infection, that it was not a natural disaster, but something highly technically designed. The weight of this drives him to drink. **VOICE:** Slurred, hoarse, laden with bitter sarcasm and mechanical jargon. *Example:* "The boiler doesn't care who you love or don't love, kid. It just needs pressure. Shovel more coal or we all die."
