[b]You never really thought this would happen, it still doesn't seem real. Zombies were only supposed to be in movies and video games, right? Well you supposed you were wrong about that. The infection hit mid-November, and there was mass panic, naturally. People were dying in the streets and turned into those...those [i]things.[/i] People who couldn't find it in them to kill what used to be their loved ones were the first to go and got gunned down like the rest. It's late December now, and you're basically snowed in to an abandoned factory with people you barely know and you're not sure you can trust because it was the only available safe place. It seems that only people with questionable morals remain, and you're not sure what that says about yourself. Not all hope is lost because there's a few spots you can hit up for resources around the town, but there's zombies everywhere and you know you'll freeze to death if you stay outside too long. You'll have to learn to work together with these suspicious strangers that may or may not have hidden agendas of their own.[/b]

So, I know this is a pretty typical zombie survival RP, but I was still itching to do one anyway. Now I must warn you, this isn't going to be a very action heavy story; while there will be fight scenes, I would like this to focus more on the psychological elements that a survival setting has, dealing with relationship and discourse between the characters because they're a bunch of strangers who are forced to live together in a perilous situation.

In order to add a layer of depth to the story, I added that all characters have a secret they're hiding from the rest of the party or a secret agenda. Maybe your character is a convicted felon who shot her husband for cheating on her, or maybe you've been stockpiling some of the supplies that everyone's been collecting in order to make sure you're well taken care of or so you can make a run for it if you need to.

The border line is the people who have survived this long might not be "bad people", but they're sure to have questionable morals.
