Angel Savage

The emotional repression thing might work for you, but some of us've got too many feelings to push 'em all down... If we don't laugh, we'll cry.

— Angel explaining her personality^[1]

Angel, a character in the Wake the Dead book, is a vagrant and one of your love interests. Although she is first seen in Chapter 3, her name isn't revealed until Chapter 4.

Appearance

Angel has turquoise and black medium-length wavy hair, brown eyes with purple eyeshadow, and light skin. She wears a black choker with a key hanging from it, a black ripped shirt with grey and red designs, and a red bandana on her right arm. She also wears a black pad on her left elbow, fingerless black and red gloves, and several bracelets on her left hand. Finally, she has a couple of scars on her abdomen, and she wears black leggings, an orange ripped jean with a black belt, and she has a turquoise bag with pockets and a bunny design attached to her waist. She states that she has a gangly scarecrow body.

Personality

Angel is wary around strangers, but once she recognizes them to be friendly, she will immediately open up to them. A self-taught engineering genius after surviving in the Black Bear Mall for years, she is very resourceful with her surroundings and is an expert trap-maker, as she once built a cage trap with cardboard boxes and duct tape. Angel is also a master of improvised weapons, with explosives being her personal favorite as they greatly excite her. Because of her isolation, others can grow uncomfortable around her and consider Angel to be weird.

Background

When Angel was a child, Angel's parents kept books on folklore and fables and passed the stories on to Angel as well, wanting her to stay connected to their Japanese heritage. They also kept an oni mask and other things Angel's grandparents had brought with them from Japan in their house.

Angel was a child when the outbreak hit. She and her parents partnered up with a group with a car to stay on the move. Once the car ran out of gas, the group chose to stay at the Black Bear Mall. Unbeknownst to them, zombies had already infested the mall and picked them off one by one. After losing her parents to the drones, Angel went into hiding and remained at the mall for years.

Survivors would frequently arrive at the mall in search of food and/or supplies. While Angel constantly agrees to assist them, she keeps track of how long each group would last before being killed. At one point, a survivor named Chad attacked her with a knife, attempting to steal her belongings. In retaliation, Angel sprayed him in the face with WD-40, presumably blinding him. Sometime afterwards, Chad was devoured by zombies. Angel would later call Chad and his group to be "dumber dead than they were alive".
