Say that the Apocalypse really does happen in 2012... Regardless of how you imagine it happening (and there are oh so many ways according to the believers), the planet would be rendered practically uninhabitable or at least be left in a severely damaged state with most of the world's population annihilated.
So, say you're the only member of your family/friends/etc who make it through. When you emerge from hiding, there is apparently nothing for you anywhere. Everything is demolished and the world is a wasteland full of whatever your imagination can conjure.
But then you see THAT PERSON. That's right, THAT PERSON. That one video game character who laughs in the face of global catastrophe and is harder to kill than a cockroach on a nuclear doomsday.
The question is, though, who is this person? Who would you hope to see standing before you after emerging from the rubble? Which badass survivalist would you want to team up with to ensure your survival in the harsh new world where food is scarce and rare survivors are potentially very violent (and maybe even a little hungry)?
I clearly got this idea from the zombie topic, but it's different. Rather than naming off generic video game badasses with big guns, this is more about deciding on who would be able to survive off of very low resources and be great at building shelters and excellent at getting around. Essentially a survivalist who is a jack (or jill) of all trades.
I would probably go with Geralt from The Witcher. That guy's alchemy can do ANYTHING, I swear!!
