Year Zero/Ch'mera/Garrison

Name: Joshua George Garrison, Josh

Day job: Wal-Mart cashier

Skills and connections: chemical analysis, highly advanced first aid, still able to access files from many scientific journals and research programs

Personality and background: Previously a professor of biology at the local university, he was fired without warning after giving a lecture on evolution. Having a bone to pick and little else to do but pack shopping bags and twiddle his thumbs, he joined the Resistance very recently. Despite what happened to him, unlike most of the others he still has a little faith in the US government and those of the rest of the world. Of a fairly nervous disposition, Joshua does not like fighting at all and tries to remain a pacifist as far as possible.
