Locos

Ebony



Ebony was first shown in the tribe as leader of Loco's along with Zoot. Ebony is cold hearted but in Series 2 she reveals she has feelings. Ebony left the Loco's after they threw her out as she went soft over Bray. She tried her best to get Bray but people always got in the way, Amber,Trudy and Danni.

Ebony thought that in series 3 she would have a chance with Bray, but when they others found Amber alive, Ebony was found out. She faked Amber's death then pretended she had a baby with Bray! Now Ebony is leader of the whole city, and has sent Amber and Bray away. What will she do next? And does she still like Bray, or maybe Luke, only series will have the answers… Ebony knows what she wants and will do everything to get it. She has shown this by becoming a mall rat leader with Bray.

Spike kidnapped her and we saw how she didn't like to be locked away. Also she has shown her love for Bray as sometimes the can cloud her judgement. Ebony was Zoot's woman, and also before the virus she has been out with Bray

S1 As the proud Queen of the Locos Ebony took her first style inspirations from Zoot- which would mean red and black. We don’t see her nearly as much as we do now but when she sneaks into the Mall she looks nothing like a Mall Rat: red boots, black leather pants, red mesh shirt with darker red squiggles all over it and a black top. Of course she has the long black leather coat and finishes the look with big mis-matched earrings and lots of silver bracelets and necklaces. Amber has zulu knots- Ebony has braids. Ok? At this point she likes tying them up and arranging them in various styles up on top of her head for that extra-aggressive look. Makeup also takes the random styles and colours of the Locusts; however, she appears to be the only prominent girl so she’s definitely made an effort. Her eyes are blacked out like Zoot but she also extends it to a ‘band’ across her nose and eventually out to the temples. Random red squiggles and zigzags continue Zoot’s theme- however, she has her own henna-ish designs such as the teardrop and similar. The tough look is completed with scarlet lipstick.

end S1/beg S2 With Zoot gone she’s left to run the Locos and do what she likes, we now have her in a new ensemble with the red boots, black pvc pants with red orange and yellow flames on the sides, orange belt and sleeveless distressed leather top. Her hair is of course in the braids- which are arranged less dramatically than before in a few loops around the side and on the top of her head. The makeup we expect from Ebony begins to show here- she has the large, ornate, bright red flame design on her forehead and the blacked-out eyes now stretch in a band from temple to temple. Completed with the standard red lipstic this paints her up as the Queen of the army she’s always wanted.

S2 Once in the mall and out of the Locust Ebony has to adapt herself quickly. This manifests in an outfit that is still very her but less of the violent look of the Locos- she has to have leather pants of course, these are darkest brown and split up the front to the knee to show off her new boots. To match this she has a brown top with cutaway sections on the waist, belly and underarms, a lace-up front and leather trims for a stylish effect. She also continues to accessorise heavily with a disc-style copper choker, black beaded choker, miscellaneous bracelets and a white feather and red strap armband. The braids are now held up with a bit more imagination with the use of thin silver wire in various styles around her head. The most common is in 3 bunchies, for a time also has some really cute crinkly braids that look quite girly for her. Random feathers are put in the top (usually black) because this is S2 after all. Makeup changes to a slightly more relaxed look at the Mall. The flame symbol remains of course but small red gemstones are added to the tips of the flames, they’re also added to her eye makeup and temples. She loses the black band for a while and instead has shimmery copper and bronze eye shadow and simple black eyeliner. When the stripe does come back it is classic black topped off fantastically with red glitter. For variety she also has the words ‘Abe Messiah’ written on her upper left arm in black. A dark brown shimmery lipstick completes a more relaxed feminine-looking Ebony.

end S2/ S3 Ebony quickly becomes the red leather girl with the arrival of The Chosen- she has a red leather halter-top with a cool buckled strap and a triangular cutout on the belly outlined with coloured flames. Her pants are black with thin red stripe detail, a red belt and black boots complete the look. Her braids are not arranged especially dramatically at the moment but they seem a lot longer now. They’re generally swept up off her face in some way with blue and dark red feathers for a bit more decoration. Makeup seems to become a bit heavier at this point; the stripe is now red and broken up by grey eye shadow and black eyeliner. Lipstick remains the standard red but sometimes adopts purple tones. Later the stripe becomes purple, dipped in the middle with a line of silver dots on the temples- a nice bit of variety for Ebony’s face.

S3 After all the hassle of defeating The Chosen the customary outfit change isn’t too varied from the last- we now have a short leather top with four straps, black pants with a large red line and knee-circle on each leg, black grommet belt, short black boots and a really cool black leather choker with studs in a cross design all around finish off the outfit. This outfit is very Ebony and has all her favourites. The braids are now held in the loose loops reminiscent of S1 but are now much more glamorous due to the red, black and silver dye put in them. Hurrah! Yellow and black feathers complete her most detailed hair for a while. Her makeup doesn’t have the dramatic overhaul you might expect- but then again Ebony hasn’t changed much as a person either. The flame stays, as does the dark red glossy lippy. Her stripe does change from purple to bright blue, outlined with black for a while.

S4 But what with The Technos flying in Ebony decides she’ll want to look her best and quickly changes outfit. Amazingly this doesn’t include a leather top; instead it’s a red material with black edging, almost detached sleeves and an open-zip neckline. However, she can’t stay away from leather pants- a very cool black pair with a line of silver buckles down each thigh. And of course accessories come into this: a slinky black chain-drape necklace, black leather cuff and an armful of black rubber bracelets. The hair actually has a bit of an overhaul, whilst the braids are irreplaceable they actually go blonde and some of the red streaks remain. The crinkly braids from S2 return which create a slightly girlier look with the blonde-ness. The braids are held half-up, half-down for a relaxed look. Red and black feathers added to the back complete the changes. Whilst the makeup keeps Ebony’s traditional themes it is adapted with some interesting results. The flame design remains but is actually a slightly different shape, there is also the lots and lots of glossy red lipstick. Finally, the stripe is altered- she wears a lot of gold eye cream around the whole ye area then a black band from the temple to the eye is added with an arrowhead shaped cutout. This leaves room for simple black eyeliner and silver crystals at each corner of the eye. Ebony is wearing a lot of makeup here but the attention to detail carries it off.


But after the Scarecrow Incident it’s time for a change…oh look, red, black and leather…what a surprise…Anyhow, she begins with a very snazzy red leather asymmetrical top with large silver grommets set in, very cool even if it did look like she’d cut up her old coat. She also goes for the double feature of leather pants and these are so unbelievably Ebony-esque: black with a red section set in the front, split halfway up the thigh with strappy detail, black knee-high boots set off the pants well. Accessories now come in the form of matching silver wrist cuffs, red chain link belt and a cool black choker with beaded drape detail. All very lovely-looking overall yet hideously impractical in the middle of a civil war. Only minor changes to hair and makeup after such an outfit overhall, her braids are now straight again and there is red glitter added to her flame whilst most of the gold eye cream goes. Some more variation might be nice…but you want to look your best when meeting old friends…

S5 When she finally decides to change outfit we see that Ebony still hasn’t changed one bit! Guess what? Red and black leather! This is getting really frustrating as her clothes are still well designed but the colourscheme is so limited. Anyways, she has a red corset with black piping detail, thin black halter-style straps, textured detail and an extra revealing lace-up detail in the back. Then it’s super-shiny black leather pants with cutouts on the thigh that have bright red lace-up detail to show her style-standards are still high even if variation isn’t her thing, they are also split to the knee to reveal red leather lining. She’s still up on accessories and now has a spiky rough metal pendant and a multi-stranded black bead necklace. Hair remains in those braids, still blonde with the odd bit of red as well. Now don’t get too excited, they’re still the same style but she’s added a cool bunch of long, thin black and red feathers in the front for more decorative hair than recently. Makeup is still pretty static; the only difference to it is that she has a double-flick effect with her eyeliner that cuts through the black stripe with gemstones on the ends. It does give yet more pretty intricacy to her eyes but we really do need some slight change here!

Glenn



Glenn was a friend of Lex, Ryan and Zandra before they attempted to join the Locos. The Locos didn't want new members, and Glenn fell into their hands. He appeared later in Series 1, dying of the virus with Zandra by his side.
 
Pre-tribe

Before the virus, Glenn was in a close group of friends, Lex, Zandra and Ryan. The group lived in the same sector. They grew up together and hung out after school.

Together they watched the world they knew fall apart and split up into tribes. Glenn was the most determined and intelligent of the group, also the one with the most will power. He wanted to have an influence on the tribeworld that had been built. Glenn did have a few problems within their group. Mainly with Lex. Lex disliked his way of thinking and plans.

Mainly they fought over the girl of the tribe, Zandra. Zandra was blind to his affection. However Lex was not.
 
Background

Glenn went with the rest of the group to try and join the Locos, but instead Zoot decided to attack them. They were escapping dowing an alley and over a fence. Lex blocked Glenn's escape path. The last thing Lex and Ryan saw of Glenn was when he was captured by the Loco's.

Glenn disappearrf until the tribal gathering. Lex boxed into a corner by Glenn then beaten up. He learnt that in the first week.

Jack sees an old man on the ctv camera. Pasty intrigue by him goes in search. She brings him back to the mall only to find that he is no "Old" man but is in fact Glenn with the virus. It had begun to spread again, this time onto the children. Zandra, his old flame cares for him while Lex is in quarantine after coming in contact with Glenn. Glenn tells Zandra about his love for her that is still going strong. If he gets through this virus will she come away with him, leaving Lex. She says she will. Only to change her mind. She was about to tell him when he finally dies. Glenn is given a good funeral.

Ep. 1
At the rail yards Glenn has his brown distressed long leather coat, black pants and big heavy boots, wearing an old-looking white shirt as well. He also has a pair of large biker-style chrome-rimmed sunglasses that he wears on top of his head.
His mid-brown, wavy hair has that ‘grown out from pre-virus’ aspect to it as it is past shoulder length.
His eye area is blacked out and then shading continues out underneath across the cheekbones. Then a separate block of colour that is similarly shaded comes from under his nose onto his chin.

Tribal Gathering
His general style hasn’t really changed too much with his big boots, dark pants and jacket, yet little bits of red detail and leather/metal accessories have all crept in under the Loco influence.
He’s lost his flowing locks. It’s now all gathered into tiny little bunchies all over his head that spike up.
Glenn looks a lot more cleared faced at the moment. His makeup now consists of a traditionally Loco big thorny/flame-ish dark red design on his left temple and cheekbone and his eyes blotched out with dark red makeup.


Spike



Spike was a random Loco before the death of Zoot. With Ebony as their new leader, he rose in the ranks to become her second-in-command. They soon became the militia to defend the Mallrats, and Spike found himself dead in the hotel pool after a mysterious drowning.
 
Tribestyle

As an ex-Loco the style of such a tribe follows Spike into the future, he keeps on his uniform of a bright blue leather suit with black and white stripe detail down the side and short black boots, However, over these are the Loco/Militia trademarks of adapted street hockey elbow/knee pads which are black but decorated with bright blue and green paint. This is similar to his breastplate that is adapted similarly but there are also bits of wire curled and spiked sticking out of the shoulders.
Spike has no tribal adaptation to his hair keeping it mid-brown and short but this is mainly because of his helmet. It’s made of light metal and painted the blue of his suit with zigzag detailing at the front. It also has the plastic-coated wire sticking out of the top and sides in red, blue and green that creates the impression of plumes.
His makeup remains in the classic Loco look with a black eye band and bold red face paint. Early on he has an abstract flame design on each cheek but later this changes to basic rectangular blocks with three horizontal lines coming of them for the aggressive look required.
