_The Flood were the greatest enemy Humanity ever faced... Intelligent, fast, strong, better than our best. And worst of all? They could recruit! Everything was hopeless... Hopeless, that is, until we brought out our homegrown, 100%, bonafide bad-ass son-of-a-bitch: The Master Chief. Chief sure as hell taught those Flood what for, he beat the bastards three times. We thought that the Flood has crawled back to their hole after those ass-whoopings. We, evidently, underestimated them. It's been a year since the New Phoenix incident. Master Chief is MIA. The Flood are back. It started small, mind you.The UNSC Infinity found a ship, drifting in space. Spirit of Fire, it was called. Whole damn boat was infested with those creepy-crawlies. Infected the whole ship, record time, too. Infinity made its way back to Earth, snuck past our defenses, and infected the whole damn planet. But what happened after that? Fuck, hell if I know. After that, the UNSC just started falling apart. Flood kept spreading, but the news didn't come. Some of us are dead in the water out here, others are stuck ground side without an orders to go off of. Me? I figure, there's one order left: Survive._ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to this Halo: The Flood RP. Basically, the deal is, The Flood have infected a massive portion of the known Galaxy and grow stronger every day. We are a rag-tag team of survivors trying to survive, and give the Flood a run for their money. This is a somewhat nontraditional Halo RP, as it will be more focused on conservation of ammo, water and food, equipment maintenance, rather than just lots of fighting. This starts on Reach, which was re-terraformed after it was destroyed. We're in New Alexandria, to start. It's been a few days since the outbreak, and the UNSC is in disarray. Orders have stopped coming. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Rules: 1. No power playing/godmodding. 2. Be nice to each other, in OOC. No matter what's happening between characters in the RP, try to maintain respect for each other. 3. Don't kill someone elses character or do serious damage to them without explicit permission from their creator. Of course, if they're being an idiot like "my character charged into a horde of flood in his underwear with nothing but a stick a stick shouting 'clang clang clang went the trolley'," you are, of course, allowed to ask my permission to kill them, rather than asking for their creators. 4. If you've read the rules, find any Srgt. Maj. Johnson quote and put it in the 'other' section of your character sheet. 5. Post characters in the OOC section to be accepted, and then post them in tha character section after they are accepted. 6. Try to be reasonably realistic. If you're an ODST, no way you could punch a flood combat form to death like a Spartan could. Lack of food and water are bad. Ammo is limited! 7. Two characters at most for one person. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Character Sheet Name: Nickname: Gender: Age: Appearance:(Either a picture of five sentences of physical description.

Rank:(Civilians have no rank. Try to make sure you're using the correct ranking system for your character(I can provide links if needed)) Armor/Clothing:(Picture and description of armor capabilities. If it's only clothing, a picture or physical description would suffice.) Weapons:(Don't go overboard. You can't go around carrying an assault rifle, a DMR, a rocket launcher and a grenade launcher all at once. Also, about how much ammo does the weapon have? In battery percentage, clips, rounds, etc.) Equipment:(Food, water. Extra stuff like rope, electronic lockpicks, C-12 explosive, etc.) Personality: (Five sentences or more) History: (Five sentences.
