1. Scientist(Female) –The scientistsurvivedbecause the greenhouseneedssomebodywhoknows
aboutbiologytobe able toknow about plantingseedsandgrowingcrops.Obviously,abiologist
will knoweverythingthereisto know abouta greenhouse andplantingseedsandalsousing
resourceswiselyinordertoconserve themforsix monthsandmake sure theyare extremely
healthy.The biologistwillalsobe able tomake sure that the outdoorlivingenvironment
circumstancesremaingoodenoughforliving,orotherwise she will have tofindone of herskills
inorder to findgoodlivingresourcesandkeepthemfresh.
2. Priest(Male) – The priestsurvivedbecausewitheverybodyelse whosurvivedtryingtoremain
calm withtheirsurvival skillsaswell asmourningeverybodyelse whodied,the bunkerwould
become verychaotic.Therefore,the priestisneededinordertomaintainmoralityandpeace
amongthe three othersurvivors. Withoutmoralityandpeace,there will justbe abunchof
angerand chaos whichwouldjustleadtoa lot of stressfor the nextsix months,whichwouldbe
bad.
3. Army Officer(Male) – Althoughthe armyofficerismentallyunstable,he isstill extremely
practical.He still hasthe physical skillstobe able toexercise andrunand getsomethingina
majoremergency.He alsohassurvival skillsthathe couldlendtothe othersurvivorsincase of
an emergency.
4. Doctor (Female)–The doctorwill definitelybe goodinordertohelpthe three othersurvivors
maintaingoodhealthsothat theycan continue livinghealthilythroughoutthe time beforethe
apocalypse. There willbe timeswhere people will getinjured,sickorunwell,andtheywillneed

Survival 101 – Who Dies and Why?
1. Married Drug Addicts – The reasonthat these twowere killedwasbecause theywere alreadyin
reallybadshape fromdoingdrugsand theywouldn’thave beenable tolendmuchhelptothe
survivors;infact,if anythingwere to go wrongwiththeirmindsdue todrug overdose,they
coulddie or cause severe trouble.Alongwiththat,theirskillsof plantingandgrowingmarijuana
seriouslycompetedagainstthe biologist,whichiswhyshe killedthem.
2. Single PregnantWoman with five year old girl – The reasonthat thiswomanand hertwo
childrenwere killedwasbecause she simplycouldnotraise herchildreninanenvironmentwith
limitedresourcesandletthemlive badlives.Therefore,the womanandhertwochildrenwere
killedby the priestbecause the priestismeanttokeepmoralityandpeace andthere would
have beenverylittle peace withtwoyoungchildrenandamotherhavingtosuffer.
3. An elderlywoman – The reasonthat the elderlywomanwaskilledwasbecauseshe hadalready
livedasuccessful lifeandshe didn’twanttohave to spendthe restof itin an environmentwith
limitedresources.She andeverybodyelse knew thatsince she waselderlythatherlife wasapt
to endsoon,so the doctor killedthe elderlywomansothat she wouldn’thave tosufferand/or
die ina bad environment.
4. A disabledperson– The reasonthat the disabledpersonwaskilledwasbecause theywere
physicallyincapable of beingable tohelpoutinany sortof wayfor survival.Also,theyhave
alreadyhadto live theirnormal life withadisability,andevenif thatwentwell forthem, why
wouldtheywantto be disabledinaworldwithlimitedresources?The doctoralsokilledthe
disabledpersonsothattheywouldn’thave todeal withthe limitedresourcesandnotbeing
able to help.
5. Lawyer – The reasonthat the lawyerwaskilledwasbecause inthe situationof the Avianfluand
everybodydesperate fornatural resources,there are reallynoreasonable lawsthatcanbe
enforced.The lawyerwouldnothave beenabletodoanythingtoprovide more resourcesor
peace.Therefore,the priestkilledthe lawyerbecausethe priesthadamuch betterrole at
keepingpeace withinthe world.
6. Lazy Welfare Dependent–The reasonthat the lazywelfare dependentwaskilled wasbecause
he had neverdone workforresources,sohe wouldhave more thanlikelyhadlittle tono
experience workingatall,andhe therefore wouldhave hadabsolutelynoreasontosurvive with
everybodywhohadworkedalotfor theirresources.Itsimplywouldhave beenunfairand
uselesstohave somebodywhowouldn’tworkforresourcestobe around people whowere
workinga lot.The army officerkilledthe lazywelfare dependentbecause the officerhaddone
all of the workand knewexactlywhowasworkingandwhowasnot and therefore whocould
stay andwho neededtogo.
7. UniversityProfessor– The reasonthatthe universityprofessorwaskilledwasbecause nobody
knewexactlysubjecthe taught,sothere wasreallynowaythat he couldhelpthe survivorswith
findingresources.Also,there wouldreallybe notime forlessonsof anykind.Evenif he taught
science,there wasalreadyabiologist,sohe wouldn’thave beenneededtoteachanything.
Therefore,the biologistkilledhim,because she wasable toteacha verynecessarysubject.
