Elliot Atkins

**“***I think I broke several bones, mind if I take yours Frankodoodle?***”**
— **Elliot, to Frank the Skeleton.**

## General Overview

Elliot was a character introduced in the first session of the Omphalos Project. He was found hiding in a tree by Zie, after this encounter he begins to follow him around and meets Crow. Previously, he lived with the two on the top floor of an abandoned apartment .

Despite his history, Elliot was an extremely carefree individual, often finding joy in teasing his friends and making terrible jokes he had picked up from the older residents of his town. Due to his nature, he always had something to say in every conversation and somehow managed to pester or entertain with his antics. Along with his loud personality, came a childlike curiosity which gets out of hand when he met someone new, he asked many inappropriate questions that frequently remained unanswered or ignored. This didn’t upset him however, and he quickly dropped the subject then distracted himself by writing in his journal or interacting with someone else.

Unlike the others within his group, Elliot didn’t mind disclosing information about his background, although he became visibly uncomfortable when people questioned things he wasn’t sure how to answer.

On the thirteenth session, Elliot’s mind began to slowly rot and his organs began to fail due to being overtaken by the fungus growing on and inside him. He started losing his memories, forgetting the people he loved most and the place he felt happy to call home. His rational side was disregarded when he asked Zie if he could kill him, becoming too afraid of dying from his condition. Before leaving, he gave away his journal to Crow, and his wolf cape (crafted by Crow) and his beloved bat to Onyx. Elliot was killed by a bullet to his head, his last words being, “See you Dad.”

## Background Information

Not much was shared about his past mainly because of his condition which made it impossible for him to recall certain events. He’d said that he was from a town named Swinford and that things were getting bad so he had ran away due to his mother wishes. He had also mentioned a church and the involvement of SOTA; adding on that they were chasing after him.

## Relationships

*During his lifetime, Elliot Atkins kept a journal which he jotted down notes on the people he knew.*

#### Crow

Extremely positive. After realising that Crow isn’t hostile, he immediately sorted him into the big brother role in his mind and became quickly comfortable with his presence. He enjoyed learning about Crow and during a past session, Elliot wrote “Crow likes the woods and hates dogs” in his diary. Although he was never very vocal about it, he appreciated all the little things Crow had done for him.

### Zie

Positive. Despite the fact that he loved starting fights with it and often got into a lot of trouble (insert corpse cave, meds, etc situations here) because of it, he never once stopped looking up to him. Zie was a strong and capable person in Elliot’s eyes which made him want to be just as strong to protect the people he cared about the most. Due to this, Zie was his father figure, which he’d stated multiple times before, referring him to as “Grandpa” or “Dad” (preferring the latter). However everything was cut short in the thirteenth session when his mind and body began to deteriorate and he asked quietly but desperately if Zie could kill him.

### Spoof

Positive. Spoof was the one person that indulged Elliot’s often bad ideas, such as assisting him gather corpses for his cave (don’t fucking ask) and giving him weapons, bombs and other dangerous materials which Elliot would keep hidden or eventually give up. He liked how mellow Spoof was compared to him.

### Onyx

Positive. Although he had many questions to ask about Onyx’s appearance that were almost rude and the warnings he’d heard about ASO were scary, he would still say that he enjoyed Onyx’s company a lot. At some point, he wished that he could spend another night camping out and exploring ruins of cities with them.
