Powers, Skills, and Personality:

Known Powers: None.

Abilities/Special Skills: By necessity, Ali was forced by Z-Day to pick up through hard experience and close calls survival skills, basic proficency with weapons, improved driving skills and other areas required to ensure a daily survival in the new world. His father gave him a skilled grounding in medicine and first aid, and the fleeing group from Olympus needs his medical knowledge.

Personality: Ali excels at obedience, but ultimately that was through his upbringing, and more important than ever, as he is best a team member. He would have faltered on his own, to fatal consequences. Still, mixed with these traits are loyalty and firm steadfastness. Incidentally, he hates Olympus bitterly.

Background:

Ali Badren, prior to Z-Day, lived on the East Coast with his father, a Lebanese doctor who had immigrated to the United States and married Moira, Ali's Catholic mother, having two kids, the younger Ali and the older Leyla. A relatively normal teenage-hood with some medical training insisted by his father (though Ali had no interest in being a doctor) went through... then Z-Day hit.

Given the high population density of the Washington suburb, the low gun count and the like, it was a miracle that the Badrens managed to make it out of the neighborhood and hook up with other survivors who had the sense to vacate the region. It was a long hard shift in life, where Ali had to learn to fire guns, and eat things his father would never have allowed before.

Of course, his father could recognize necessity, and pressed his family for their sakes as well. They pushed west, and over several months, a vehicular convoy of travelers gathered together for protection and support, called the Bradford Caravan, after Jonah Bradford, the leader.

Unfortunately, one day a surprisingly large force of zombies converged on the Bradford Caravan, including a pair of super-Zeds. Bradford was killed, and the Caravan had been facing annihilation when Han and compatriots arrived from Olympus and drove off the Zeds. Under the situation, Han offered shelter and succor at Olympus, and the battered remainder of the Caravan, the Badrens included, accepted.

It was a terrible mistake. Upon arrival, it became clear that succor and shelter were not free, and the price was obedience, worhsip and integration. One of the first and most vociferous to object was Moira Badren, ever pious, followed by Omar. They were the first two to die in the second, but much briefer fight that erupted.

Leyla, Ali and a few still alive were cast into Tartarus in short order, there at the mercies (or lack thereof) of the crueler gods. It was when Martin erupted into Phobos that he urged his sister, and the siblings followed Martin in the breakout from Olympus, and remain with him unscathed so far.
