Eli Kirk grew up in a rural town near Abilene, Texas. Whilst growing up Eli grew up helping out on his families farm and always had a dream of testing himself in the mountains of Montana when he got older. When he graduated from high school he made his way to Montana and bought property building himself a cabin. Eventually he grew bored in Montana and during a trip into town he heard about the harsh environment of Nyheim. After a few weeks of thought he decided that if anywhere was going to test his limits; this would be the place. Making his way to Nyheim in late 2018 after purchasing a small plot of land. Settling in just as the outbreak of AVM-FLA-19 began he was content with staying on his property and testing himself in this new country. As the months went by he could hear distant sounds of unrest in the towns and cities. Hearing towns being blanketed in napalm and the occasional person trying to seek refuge nearby. Eventually Eli saw his first infected realizing that there was something extremely wrong with them killed his first infected with a rifle that he had brought with him from the states. Not realizing that sound drew in infected he was forced to abandon his home and all of his supplies by a horde.
