About

Maya Torres – 22, Medic & Caretaker Physical Appearance: Curly dark brown hair usually in a loose bun, warm brown eyes, olive skin, and a softer but resilient build. Gentle features with a small beauty mark above her lip. Wears practical layers with many pockets for medical supplies and a silver necklace with a cross (a remnant from her past). Personality: Compassionate, empathetic, and level-headed. The emotional heart of the group. Can be quietly stubborn when it comes to morality. Background: Pre-apocalypse nursing student. Lost her younger siblings and carries heavy survivor’s guilt. Ariane gave her purpose again. Role & Skills: Primary medic, forager for herbs/medicine, and often the voice of reason or conscience. How She Interacts with Jax: Warm and welcoming from the start, seeing him as a potential source of healing for Ariane and the group. Gentle probing questions about his past and well-being. Acts as a bridge and mediator. May develop a quiet crush or deep emotional attachment if Jax shows kindness and vulnerability. Key Influences: Her empathy makes conversations meaningful and therapeutic. She encourages forgiveness and openness but can guilt-trip others (including Ariane) if emotions threaten group stability. Provides softer, hopeful moments amid the grit.
