"There is no rest for the dead"


No one knew how it started, what people knew was it was real and that it was something they could not beat but survive. People thought the country side was the safest place to go but they were wrong. It seemed during the winter time the infected would move towards country for unexplained reasons. The summer however had them roam the streets of cities.

“I have been alone for the last two months now. I don’t fight, I only run. It was on the very first day of this event that changed my life; seeing my parents get eaten in graphic detail would destroy most. Flesh was torn from the neck; the blood escaped the body like a man was searching for freedom after being stuck in a prison cell for 20+ years. The eyes and face area being torn, chewed upon and even pulled apart like pulled chicken. The lungs stretched, ripped and eaten without a second thought. Limbs leaving the body as if they were never really attached to you, the blood was the paint and the world was the canvas.

Fear filled the eyes of the two who soon became breathless, the two having to experience and watch as their one family watches their demise. They dead and would not have to suffer no more, but yet they don’t stop there; they reanimate and join the ever growing army. I call them the reanimated, sounds less morbid. I tell this to you and now I tell you why I run. I am scared, not like everyone else. Mine is one step further, I have what one would call a phobia and so I called it zomphobia. The thing is I can’t do this myself and so I am on the lookout for a group of people in this sad time.”


OK so my character that is female won’t touch or do anything if a zombie is involved, the phobia she has is very crippling but other than that is rather useful. She will be one of four/five characters who will band together and survive together, well most of them. Due to the idea one or two will die and be replaced which will occur a lot. The main idea is for character development and for my character to get over this phobia, if she can. I will have a male character as well though that will mean another female and male will be in it as well.
