[center]The disease is here, along with the dead. It's like a Hollywood Zombie Thriller came to life and is taking over the world. The beasts are hungry. Hungry for flesh. The bloodborne illness is inside us all, and only comes out post-death, but when it does, it comes with a killer side effect. The once dead rise in a matter of minutes, munching on anything they can find. They're mindless and follow the scent of blood where ever it may lead. With this new outbreak, society has fallen apart. What will you do about the oncoming horde? [hider=Location, Location, Location] [i]This little game of ours is on the Eastern edge of the United States of America. From Pennsylvania to North Carolina, and Kentucky to the sea. Of course, the disaster is more spread out than just the east, but that's the hotspot. The dead zone, as it were.[/i] [img]https://www.mapsofworld.com/usa/images2011/usa-map.gif[/img] [/hider] [hider=Past, Present, and Future(?)] [i]AKA, Who the Hell are you, why the Hell are you here, and why the Hell should I care?[/i] Name: Anything you want to be called. Can have a real and a fake one. Appearance: Describe or photo. Age: As long as it makes sense. Birth State: You can be a local or lived somewhere else, but where ever you were born, you somehow ended up in the East. Be sure to include how you got there if you weren't simply born on the coast. Family members: You may have side characters and you can include them in the role-play as well. Max of 2 extra characters. Role/Occupation: What you did every day. Starting Fortune: How much money you have. What equipment do you have on you? Do you own a house? If so what does it look like? Strengths: What you are good at that help you survive. Make sure that your strengths and weaknesses balance out. Weaknesses: What traits you have that might one day get you killed Greatest Fear: What makes you freeze, run, or want to cry? What do you expect behind a doorway? Background/History: Where were you from; why are you here; what do you want to achieve; and anything you want us to know. *Hidden background (Optional): Something that'll be more, *cough* [i]hidden[/i] *cough* from the other players. Make sure you PM the GM or the CO GM [/hider] [hider=There's still rules, even when the world is dead] 1. Be Respectful. Keep the drama and fighting in the IC or in a PM. Picking a fight in the OOC just needlessly complicates things. 2. Ask before fast traveling, killing/fighting someone, or any large action you plan on doing. 3. Basic Roleplay Rules (I.E. No God Mode, Don't Waste Time, Don't be an Ass, etc.) 5. Last off, it's not a requirement, but have some fun! Why bother doing something if it won't give you pleasure, whether that be in the now or in the future? [/hider] [/center]
