In my dream, I was told that some of the chars I was seeing were other peeps OCs n I was ready 2respect that, but once I woke up I realized "Oh shrimp, those people don't exist so these guys are all mine now!!! Of course, I also gave myself the possibility that that was a glimpse of another dimension, but my dreams also told me dat these were EW OCs but the waking world told me otherwise Lmao.
I could guess who deymay bebased on design-wise, but for the most part, I'm gonna be making em my own.

I think it's cuz of the caricatures of each guy.
We're going from historical -> anime -> cartoonish -> mysterious
Ya know, I added in the red text as the very last thing just before I uploaded it just now? I meant to put it to the side or corner earlier, but I did it that way instead. I don't want anyone to be confused about them, LoL.
It's getting late here so I'll add in my guesses for who they may be based on later. Goodnight! :crescent_moon:

Blue colonial hat guy that got bitten by a zombie - I love the Ghosts series on Paramount+ and I guess that he may be inspired by Issac, but I've also occasionally watched some historical vids with guys in colonial outfits cuz his personality doesn't actually match Issac's so it may just be recent stuff w/ them overall. I like to watch other historical stuff from time-to-time, It's just a guess as to how he came up in my head is all.

Pink-haired dude wearing Khaki - My first thought when trying to think of anyone close to his appearance was Ilima from the Sun n Moon series/gen7 games. Which is funny cuz I haven't thought of him in years. I looked him up just now to make sure I spelled his name right tho. I also thought about this other guy that I've seen memes w/ the Toblerone snack, but I've never seen the actual show he's from so idk anything about his char or anything, I just think he has a neat design is all, I guess...

SAMPSON!!! - Loves to crouch! Outdoors-y hunter survivalist type! But who's he based on?
Well,... I've seen my fair share of characters like this, so who's to say, really?... I guess for now, I could say that It's that crazy eyepatch-wearing redhead guy from Billy and Mandy. The last time I saw him was in memes a while back, and those were b4 any of my failed attempts at binge watching the series.

Scientist/Doctor dude - Well, despite the fact that I saw him as the guy, or @least 1 of them, to go n send these guys n maybe even Trod on missions together, I think I put him in a lab coat rather than his usual sweater n pants attire was cuz I was sort of into SCP stuff. ....again...
I've also been watching plenty of medical stuff from people like Doctor Mike and the like. So ig it could be either one?.... Or BOTH even!! Who knows?...
I sure don't, but I will eventually, LoL.

Aaaaaand I think that's everyone..... thanks for reading on if ya did folks. Goodnight/Good Morning :wave: :grin:
