So [@Cairo] how is this story going to start in respects to our characters knowing each other? I would imagine we have not been together long if at all? Another question if it isn't too revealing, as its been 45 days I would imagine we know some things about the creatures fighting in the war, not a terrible lot but strategies by now to help take them down, would we be coming up with such things on our own or would you kind of fill us in on a need to know basis type thing?

Good questions, all! If any of you guys want to establish your characters as having known each other / been traveling together before the RP starts, that's totally fine. Otherwise, we will all be strangers who just happened to be in a similar place in the D.C. area when some shit started going down. 

As far as strategies go, absolutely, the characters would have come up with tricks and tools to get an edge over the beasties and gained a reasonable level of knowledge about them; really, that's how they've survived. If it's stuff like tools or maneuvers that are effective, you're free to come up with those on your own - an example of that sort of thing would be the rope trick Charlie and his friend use against the frost giants in the sample post I put on my CS. When it comes to supernatural weaknesses, or knowledge you've gained about their nature or their organization, those I'll ask you to clear with me beforehand if you have any ideas about them. You can always ask if you have any thoughts or particular questions about that sort of thing. Otherwise, yeah, I'll be filling you in on information about them as it becomes relevant, though most of what Survivors know about them is still rooted in very practical matters, aka, how to get them dead before they get you dead.
