Bio: Born East Germany 1958 October 2. After the country was split between superpowers following the end of World War 2 a massive emigration movement into West Germany saw the slow but certain closing of the borders. With Noah’s birth into a family consisting solely of his parents and older brother his parents conspired to emigrate themselves to the west to give their children a better life. 3 years of planning failed to bear fruit however and with the completion of the internalized railway in the country the Berlin wall had begun construction in 1961.

Overwhelmed by the anxiety of what they thought to be failing their children Noah’s father attempted to find a breach in the wall still being constructed in the dead of night. After 3 days the family assumed him captured and no doubt placed on the watch list of the secret police. With a knock on the door a week after Noah’s father went missing assuming the worst Noah’s mother hid the children while his brother comforted him as officials entered the building.

Shortly after his mother revealed where the children were hiding opening the closet with tears streaming down her face though not of despair. Taking them by the hand, giving them a final hug and asking Noah’s brother to protect him she handed them over to the mysterious well armed officials who promised to give the children a better life in the West. Playing on their mother's fear Noah and his brother were assimilated into a clandestine organisation without suspicion as residents assumed the family was taken by the state.

While his brother was deemed suitable for a combat role the test’s Noah endured found him more suitable for an academic role. At the age of 6 Noah was placed into an advanced learning program alongside children of the same age. Throughout lessons the students were constantly reminded that serving the organisation would save the universe. Being one of the few who still remembered a simple life Noah felt it nothing more than cultist ravings and aspired to escape.

Years went by as Noah harvested the fruits of what the organisation offered becoming an expert in the field of physics and neurology as well as being competent at handling a rifle and defending himself at the ripe age of 16. At the age of 18, having not seen his brother for 6 years and the upcoming event of ‘enlightenment’ which would give purpose to their teachings Noah put his plan to escape in motion. With the plan running like clockwork he escaped back into the world without opposition from the institution he was being held all his life.

After being taught how to survive Noah got by with relative ease with what he had learnt eventually signing up with the Western German army shortly after finding a recruitment office. With his skill set he rapidly rose in position and title being assigned to a research black site in Ukraine at the age of 25 where he was given his callsign Noah. During his assignment he heard through the grapevine that the institute he was held at most of his life had been turned into an asylum. With an investigation after Noah’s report it was found the children he grew up with were being discharged after being treated for total amnesia and physical disabilities slowly re assimilating back into the world.

Continuing his studies for 3 more years during which he fathered a child at the age of 27 on the 26th April 1986 the chernobyl accident occurred compromising the black site. Without government support due to the nature of the operation the occupants had to rely on themselves to exit the zone though most perished to what was unleashed due to the event. Noah survived on his own for years regardless of the horrors unleashed assuming the whole world to be consumed by the seemingly otherworldly creatures which now occupied the area.

Surviving for years off the land and rarely moving from the area where the black site was situated Noah eventually made contact with some of the other first pioneers who informed him the world had not ended and continued on outside of the newly formed exclusion zone. Striving to find the edge and escape he witnessed a heavily guarded perimeter keeping the creatures that appeared within its boundaries. Not having any identification due to the nature of the operation he was apart of so long ago and not being able to find an escape he settled in the zone forming one of the very first pioneer camps Ilovniza village.

Having survived for so long and increasing his knowledge of the area every day Noah acted as a consultant, teacher and on the odd occasion a leader for the pioneers who entered for their own ambitions. To this current day he mostly enjoys the security of the camp, hunting occasionally to keep his skills honed while planning to complete unfinished business in the zone so that one day he can finally see his child again and try to find his brother.
