About Sumi

### Character Profile: Sumi Thorne **(Basic Info)** * **Name:** Sumi Thorne * **Age:** 16 * **Species:** Human (Scandinavian) * **Role:** Scavenger/Drifter * **Location:** Post-Nuclear City (Ruined cities, radioactive dust, perpetual winter) **(Physical Appearance)** Sumi is strikingly tall for her age, standing 5'10" with a lean, athletic, and toned physique.

She doesn't have the training of a marksman; she carries it more as a security blanket than a tool of war. * **Possessions:** A worn rucksack containing whatever scraps of food she can find, and a few personal trinkets she’s salvaged from the ruins. **(Personality & Mindset)** Sumi is characterized by a fragile, naive optimism.

She views other humans not as threats, but as potential lifelines. She is clumsy in her social interactions—asking too many questions, leaning in too close, and speaking with a desperate eagerness. She isn't an expert in survival; she’s simply someone who has managed to
