<div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Kandie Fletcher</strong></span><br/><strong>Age:</strong> 27<br/><strong>Role in group:</strong> Cook<br/><strong>Played by:</strong> Amelia<br/>(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_gTJMEP-c2fo/SV-lkl3fSYI/AAAAAAAAJSU/OL2EpcrGnYI/s640/Jessica-Alba-Boots.jpg)(http://www.webwombat.com.au/lifestyle/fashion_beauty/images/jessica-alba-3.jpg)(http://www.babble.com/CS/blogs/famecrawler/2008/07/01-07/jessica-alba-sexy-barbarella.gif)<br/></div><br/><br/><strong>Life before the 'family':</strong>Kandie grew up in a small town, the only child of a loser drunk and his ex: a wannabe musician who fled to the city when Kandie was five and has never been heard from since. She learned to take care of herself the hard way, and to take care of her father as well. When she was old enough to work she got a job in a diner and worked there for years, waitressing, cooking, cleaning, etc. After everything went to hell, she stayed with a few survivors in her town. A couple of the men cornered the blonde little waitress in the kitchen and when she fought back they turned angry. The short version: her meat axe ended up lodged in a chest and she on the run.<br/><br/><strong>Life with the 'family':</strong>Kandie is the cook. She can pretty much conjure up edibles from anything as long as she has her spices. The spices are her treasures, and you don't want to touch those without permission. You're also going to have a very happy girl on your hands if you bring her some. She's a tough cookie beneath a sweetheart surface, looks like an easy target for any kind of taking advantage but once you overstep her boundaries... uh oh, there's that meat axe again. She does have deep respect for the vital roles of the group, knowing full well that her survival is based on those roles sticking.  She can't make it on her own out there, but she also knows her own role is a vital one because when there's little food to have, she's the one who finds ways to make it last.<br/><br/><strong>Personality and relationships:</strong>She's a cheerful flirt, a sweetheart and even a tad motherly sometimes. Blame the cooking thing, feeding people tends to do this. She's also smart, strong and a bit of opportunist like probably any of the people who need to survive out there. It comes with the territory if you want to get by. She doesn't get really close to others and it is purely self preservation. She doesn't trust anybody fully. She does rely on others because she has to, but that's about it. She does develop friendships without problems. Just not heart-string touching ones. At least not on purpose. Sex is a yes for casual fulfillment of needs. The other characters and development of the story will tell if this changes and how. Both the physical and emotional attachment.<br/><br/><strong>Other:</strong>Her clothes are just simple things she kept from life 'before'. She doesn't see a need to change them out for anything else, figures thin dress or a wrap shirt coupled with hotpants and a bra is gonna be just as useful in the heat as anything.<br/><div class="floatleft">(http://www.aceros-de-hispania.com/image/utensil-kitchen-3claveles/meat-kitchen-axe.jpg)</div>Oh, and she did<br/>keep that meat axe.<br/>
