[quote=Jazzy] Currently, my characters haven't been placed in any one location besides a city. I'm purposely vague as to where they are for a reason. I had an idea for them to be heading toward the Colorado Springs, but Aweena has STILL not gotten back to me on that after the PM I sent him a few days ago (I'm beginning to feel he just doesn't respond if it's something he doesn't want to tell you which is totally okay if it is). If you have any specific city in mind maybe Nevermind, you, and I can work something out. Allison will want another girl to be around to help her out and be there as a female friend. [/quote] It's alive!!! This was what I was waiting to post while it was done: I actually got to researching and thinking for what city we should be in, during the time the guild was down, and one came to my mind: Salt Lake City, UT. It’s between Chico and Colorado Springs that actually fits well for a first encounter between all our characters. It also has a park and several landmarks we can incorporate into the environment and allow lots of freedom in the story, namely our own take on the changes and flavor. If we’re in agreement then I’ll make the post and have Abbie end up at the 7 eleven on 1343 Emery St, separated from her traveling group during salvaging or rather left behind. I reasoned it is because, despite the odds, everyone will seek that area out first to see if there’s any small chance there’s some gas left or supplies. Mostly due to habit and hope. In addition it’s an ideal and easy place to meet if any other survivors arrive without it being a simple bam, we bump into each other. Like an unofficial meeting place for all survivors. It’s rather got a nice suburb feel; slightly Walking Dead sort, and not too overly crowded for a loner to be found. Let me know what you think and I’ll start weaving the post. I’m thinking of a bit of trouble in the post which could be fun to play out, easily allowing Allie and the rest to come to her rescue and easily earn a bit of gratitude. If you have a truck or car or something to travel, we might have Abbie and Allie go hunting a deer who crosses their path later. ;) It was once mentioned at one point that wildlife could’ve grown in population during the few years the undead rose, including some wildlife which escaped from zoos like a causal lion might be wandering near the border of Mexico or Texas, due to less harsher environment though I’ve not researched the possibility. I like to think the animals would’ve adapted. Another question I have, Aweena or Zombie, would any those past connected to her have joined Abbie? I’m mainly asking because I’ve forgotten one key thing: Abbie’s not a very good loner, she doesn’t travel alone if she can help it which why I asked. [url=http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/blog_post_349_width/2013/05/karen_gillan_a_p.jpg]Abbie[/url] There’s a different picture of Abbie, less serious survivor, and yes, I didn’t know it’s the girl from the tv show Doctor Who until after she was accepted. XD However, it’s the best image of how I see this character. Before I go into the intro creation, I’m going to set aside a list of items and what not on her person which will adapt as the rp goes on. Mainly because I want to try to keep in mind the realism, not all of it will be that but I let it slide far too easily and want to try to avoid that this time. And here’s some of her measurements and information if they’re not in the CS. XD [b]DOB:[/b] December 11, 2002 which means she’s about 19 now [b]Height:[/b] 5’8” [b]Weight:[/b] 128 lbs.

There are other odds and ends within the pockets but those two things are the most important to her heart. Under the flannel, Abbie wears a tank top shirt sporting a military green color.

However, for future reference, I think it might be ideal to ask if anyone wants to shift the scene to the next time/location, namely in a group, and that way we’re sure there’s nothing else anyone wants to do. I’m assuming it’s around Noon, likely early but it could be late if you all want it that way? It might allow those less eager to allow Abbie join them to be more agreeable. >,< Sounds like a bossy woman, don't I?
