Rob Hawkins

Living… through an unprecedented attack on New York City. In his words, “Approximately seven hours ago, some… thing attacked the city. I don’t know what it is.” Rob has already lost several friends and family members in the attacks.

Visiting… midtown Manhattan. Rob was lucky enough to make it to the evacuation sight at the Brooklyn Bridge. But upon learning that his old friend (and maybe girlfriend) Beth is trapped in her apartment near Columbus Circle, Rob returns to the city, which is now under siege, in order to rescue her.

Profession… the Vice President of Marketing at Slusho Corp. Rob was set to move to Japan for work. The night of the attack was the same night as his going-away party.

Relationship Status… recently got involved with his old friend, Beth. Rob’s friendship with Beth had been platonic for years until, just last month, it evolved into something more.

Challenge… rescuing Beth and surviving the mysterious attack. Rob and his friends are trying to do two things at once: figure out exactly what is causing the mass destruction of Manhattan and survive it. All the while, Rob has been taping the event with his friend’s camera. “If you’re watching this right now,” he says, “then you probably know more about it than I do.”

Personality… confused, desperate, and loyal. Rob’s life has been turned upside down over the course of a few hours, but he finds the strength to return to ground zero and rescue his lover and best friend, Beth.
