The worst things we had to deal with where Drugs, Cancer and some barista screwing up your latte order. That was until three years ago when the shit hit the proverbial fan and all hell broke loose. People got sick, people died, people came back and soon the entire world was slung right into Armageddon. Whether it be skill or just down right luck you have managed to survive the last three years. Your days are spent avoiding the Walkers, or whatever you chose to call them. You fight to survive but in this time you have discovered more about yourself than anything that could have been found in your Facebook profile. Are you still the person you used to be? Have you snapped and gone into a dark place? Do you hunt these monsters or are you just on the defensive? Have you discovered that people are not only your greatest asset in this new world but what you truly need to fear the most? We open in Newnan Georgia. (Why Georgia? Simply because I know the state better than others, so it makes it easier for me to GM.) There is a group of long term survivors that have set up a place of safety, well as safe as you can get in this day and age. They have walls, they have weapons, they have jobs. Everyone works, everyone contributes. Whether it be going on runs, helping tend to the numerous gardens, making sure the supplies are ready, that security is in tact, etc. They do bring in new people because there is safety in numbers and they know this but they are also well aware of the fact that people are dangerous. Justice is swift here, the greater good always outweighs a single person. Banishment does not happen, execution does. Will you be part of the core group of Newnan? Are you one of the wandering groups that comes across the place? Or were you found by those out on a run and brought back? Can you live under these conditions? How long will the walls last? Safety is never eternal. Welcome to the Walking Dead!

The main area is blocked off heavily by a double set of twelve foot high walls with one gate at the south end. They have an infirmary, their living quarters, a central dining building for meals, weapons are housed here, vehicles, supplies and so forth. The outer area surrounds the town a bit further out with ten foot walls - it is the first line of defense and is use for crops, machine working, training, water purification and such. One gate at the south end. The entire town is looked after by a sniper tower in the center of town and various posts on each set of walls at all times. [b][i][color=ed1c24][center]Character Positions In Camp[/center][/color][/i][/b] - Core Group - This group has been together from nearly the start - all became part of the group within the first 6 months of outbreak. They are close knit, leave no man behind until you have to. They have done things to survive they do not want to talk about, they've killed but they get the job done. They are not cruel but they all have their own dark place that can come out. They are family now. [list] [*] Leader - Leann McCormick (Former Lt.

You have only been together a couple of weeks, running into each other in various places over the last month. There is no leader yet, there are constant fights, no one really gets along. You are basically of the mentality that more people means more meat shields between you and the walkers.

[*][hider=About Your GM] [hr][h1][center][b][i][color=ed1c24]What To Expect From Your GM[/color][/i][/b][/center][/h1][hr] Greetings and salutations, I figured it was prudent to let you know a little about your GM and what you can expect. I have been at this RP business a long time, decades. So I have a pretty well worked out way of how I run things and what I expect in an RP. I am a bit picky but that only comes from years of dealing with many different things when it comes to RP. First, you should know that I am serious about Rp even though it is a hobby. I don't put up with B.S., trolls, flakers, and so forth. I will kick someone from an Rp if need be but it is a rare thing. (Twice now in all my time as a Gm.) Secondly, I do expect the rules I put forth to be followed - all of them. I expect a certain level, a high level, of respect and courtesy to be shown to myself and to your other Rpers at all times. If you wonder what that is, read my Guide To Rp Etiquette - which you should have by now since it is part of my rules. Thirdly, my biggest pet peeve has always been and will always be those that do not follow posting rules set forth in RP. To not to do so is to be disrespectful to me and your fellow Rpers. I enforce posting rules more strictly than any other rules. To break those is a great sin and you shall be punished. Next, while all of these rules may seem a bit much and I may come off as a hardass, I am actually a very laid back person and am willing to work with Rpers on most anything. As long as the lines of communication remain open and honest, I will bend over backwards for my Rpers when I Gm. I do check posting habits and log ins. When you join an Rp of mine I add you to my friends list. This will show me the last time you logged in, even if you are set to hidden. So if you lie about logging in or being gone, I will know. I am a firm believer of if you have time to spam and lurk you have time to post. It is all about managing your time wisely. Though most here on the forum are younger, I treat all Rpers as adults; with that comes personal responsibility. If you join you will be held to the same standards I hold my self to. I will refuse to let people join an Rp of mine that have given me issues in the past. If you are new to Rp or still learning, I am more than happy to help you to become a better Rper. That includes things on teaching how to prep posts before it is your turn to post, how to do colabs, how to create and stick to your characters, how to improve posts, how to find inspiration, how to get a post done when it needs to even if you have no inspiration and so forth. I like to get to know my rpers. What do you do, what your schedules are like, who you are. It helps me better understand my Rpers and how to better help them along the way and/or make their Rping experience more enjoyable. Now that you know this, please make sure to use it as part of your consideration for joining the Rp. I know what I have said will lead many to not join but I assure you those that do will be taken on a wild ride of twists, turns, unexpected events, laughs until your cheeks hurt and many feels!
