In celebration of the Resident Evil 2 board game being announced on Kickstarter( steamforged.com/sfg-news-blog/re2tbg), I have decided to resurrect Raccoon City. You don't have to be familiar with the RE series to participate in this RP.



The Raccoon Incident was a days-long ordeal that eventually culminated in the nuclear destruction of Raccoon City, with all trace of its 100,000 citizens decimated in the wake of Umbrella's scandal. The T-Virus and G-Virus were mistakenly unleashed on the city via the sewage and water systems, infecting hundreds and eventually thousands over the span of a month (August-September. Umbrella Pharmaceuticals, a multi-billion dollar leader in Big Pharma, held Raccoon City hostage with it's experiments, due to the company's philanthropy and financing of public infrastructure. The leaders of Raccoon City were on Umbrella's payroll, and the research technicians and employees kept silent as Umbrella committed heinous (not to mention illegal) experiments under the guise of virus research. The setting will be familiar to fans of the RE series - Raccoon City is our playground in this RP.




[THE OUTBREAK]


The Outbreak was worst during the following [DATES: 09/24/1998 ~ 09/30/1998]


This RP takes place over the span of 6 days (09/24 ~ 09/30) meaning this RP has a foreseeable END. The RP will stop once we reach September 30th. On September 30th, the city is going to be nuked and that won't be changing in this RP, but the decisions you make leading up to the Sterilization of Raccoon City can make some difference and perhaps even ensure the survival of others, also trapped in RC.
-1. Your characters are trapped in Raccoon City, with thousands of zombies surrounding whatever shelter you chose to hole yourself up in. There are still [Survivors] out there - will you risk your own neck to save them or say "Fuck them" and get out of RC as soon as possible?
-2. Perma-death is obviously a thing in this RP, but will generally be reserved for players who drop out of the RP.
-3. Your goal is simple: EVACUATE RACCOON CITY BY SEPTEMBER 30th.
-4. Teamwork is key to surviving the zombie apocalypse.



[INVENTORY SCREEN]





[SANCTUARIES]
There are only 2 sanctuaries (SAFE, zombie-free zones) left in the city, after the fall of the Raccoon Police Department. Survivors swap items and munitions here, as well as coordinate their defensive/offensive strategy for evacuating Raccoon City. Pick one of these as your Starting Location.

As much as everyone hates ORC, is there any hope for an operative to bleed over?
One of those "I'm dead, one way or another" mind be of use, though their resources are nil and their job was kinda to mop up the mess...y'know...before they failed since Raccoon City got disgustingly out of hand.

Just dropping this off here, a VR REMAKE of RE2 is also being made.



Hopefully that gets some of you that are on the fence about this RP to join :)

Yes, definitely. I want to combine aspects of several RE games, as well as the IC posts from our characters, into a retcon Raccoon City.
Retcon within limits that stay true to the series, though. It is very possible I will use elements from ORC, RE2, RE3 and the Outbreak series.

"One of those "I'm dead, one way or another" mind be of use"

Your characters motivations are your own. Don't give too much away before OOC goes up.

I will post my CS as an example, hopefully to sway you.

You guys do not have to have this level of detail in your CS. I would actually prefer you develop your character in the IC and have your CS be somewhat vague.



@Dark Lugia's CS:




Short, sweet and to the point.
@Bishop Approved.






@Assallya approved.

I'm interested in this if you guys are still accepting. I've got another CS that I've gotta pump out first but I'll try to get something worked up for this.

This looks AMAZING! I just got through an operation at the hospital though so it might be a little while before I'm clear headed enough to post here. Can I reserve a spot?

Since you've crossed that bridge, guess I'll jump in as well. Time to make a character who is way in over their heads, and has nothing but a camera as his preferred weapon of choice and memento... stun and run?

@everyone
I am still looking for Sign-Ups and interest in this RP.
I will set this RP to "Jump-In" when OOC goes up. And....it's up! roleplayerguild.com/topics/167044-res…

Yes, you can definitely reserve or join at a later date. (Raccoon City is full of survivors, in every nook and cranny, waiting to be saved. Most will unfortunately not make it out of the city.)

Good luck with your recovery btw.

I am still actively RECRUITING for this RP and looking for more players.
Link to OOC/IC: [RE: Escape From Raccoon City OOC]

The RP has been set to "Jump-In" which means NO CHARACTER-SHEET NECESSARY. You can start posting in IC immediately.
(However, it is still suggested you do a CS to avoid confusion.)

Since you've crossed that bridge, guess I'll jump in as well. Time to make a character who is way in over their heads, and has nothing but a camera as his preferred weapon of choice and memento... stun and run?


I like the concept of a photographer/videographer dazing zombies with camera flash lol. (It's a bit masochistic and could make your RPing more difficult but I would like to see it in practice.)

Howdy @Dark Lugia, apologies for not getting back to you! Been busy with quite a few things, I'll try and hammer out a CS as soon as I am able, really appreciate your patience! By the way, I'm curious, are you familiar with a site called Project Umbrella?

It's interesting...but the time limit kind of sets me back since from my experience on this site. People post ungodly slow!!! (Most rp's I'm in it's like every 4-6 days before someone actually posts) Otherwise...I'm curious about weapons. Is it just guns and the knife or can we potentially use other weapons?

@Kazemitsu I think it's in game days and not real life days if that's your issue though I'm not positive.

It's in game days, I'm positive... because it has been one day since the first post and not a whole lot of people have exactly posted yet (will probably churn out one tomorrow or Friday). So yeah.

As for your other question about weapons, my characters first weapon is essentially a camera that is used to stun or blind zombies... however, it hasn't gotten to that state yet. For one, it needs a flash before it can do anything special, so yeah.
