Jaime

—A traveler, set out searching for his father who left him alone in a hospital and "went crazy" after getting a mysterious book. Jaime followed his father south from an unknown location across vast distances. He fell in with another group of travelers who, as it turns out, were violent Raiders (why they did not immediately attack Jaime himself is unclear. If they were to kill everyone they came across, they would never recruit new members.) who killed another group of travelers for a "sack of rotten vegetables." Jaime secretly resolved to get away from this dangerous group as soon as he was able--the opportunity presented itself when the raiders prepared to attack a group of traders. Jaime turned on the Raiders, earning the gratitude of the traders, who were able to show him the direction his father had gone. Jaime followed his father's trail, finding snares his father had set for food, to the Dunwich Building. He noted that he had heard the raiders tell "spook stories" about "zombies" inside, which were apparently true. (Jaime had somehow never encountered a Ghoul before now). He eventually found and/or killed his father, who had also mutated into a ghoul. He picked up the strange book his father had been keeping and decided to rest for a bit, sleeping against the strange obelisk in the bottom of the building. When he awoke, he too was a mutated, insane ghoul. The book's eventual whereabouts are unknown.
