Plot Information
It has been five years since the dead took over, bringing the end of the world with them.

Though the majority of humanity has died off or joined the ranks of the unliving, some of those that have survived through the thick of the apocalypse have chosen to put down their weapons and join forces with other encampments and groups at the ushering of Scott E. Willis, a former politician from Michigan. Whilst his cancer would inevitably claim him, the coalition he had created would change the landscape of the apocalypse forever. No longer were people squabbling over dwindling resources, but instead working together as a team to rebuild a semblance of civilized society.

It wasn't never going to be perfect—there were still bandits and the undead to deal with, of course—but Willis' efforts ultimately saved lives that would've been lost without change. People had food to eat, friends to keep them from going crazy, and safe shelters to live in away from the dead and the crazy.

The job is never done, however, and there is much more to accomplish. Taking on the role of a Ranger, aptly named after the medieval guardians they were, your goal is to help the community in any way you can. Whether that means helping with repairs, scavenging for supplies, or even clearing out the undead, your hands get dirty so what's left of the world can stay clean. It's a risky job for anyone, and death may always be around the corner, but a full stomach and festivals surely beats huddling in a cold, abandoned house.

Are you ready to heed the call?

OOC Information
  • This RP will be primarily set in the settlement of Wolfwater named not only for the encampment's proximity to Lake Michigan, but also due to a growing population of gray wolves nearby. Characters may be from other settlements, but the main hub of events in this roleplay will be in Wolfwater.

  • Characters must be in line with realism and a good fit for a group. For example, characters with katanas or a full set of military gear probably wouldn't fit here just as much as lone wolves or edgelords would.

  • Zombie culture is a thing in this universe. As for the zombies, though, they will be no more than what we see with The Walking Dead. Slow shamblers that are typically easy to handle alone, but dangerous in large groups or herds.

  • One three paragraph+ post at least once per week is considered acceptable. Anyone who doesn't post in the IC or mention an absence in the OOC in that time span will be given a week to respond before their character is considered a disposable NPC to either be placed in the background or killed off.

  • Please remember that we're here to have fun! Don't ruin it by godmodding with your character or being a pain in the butt in the OOC. GM's word is final!

For your consideration @Makani
EDIT1: Updated with a reference image.
EDIT2: Added a two-way radio to her gear. Likely the last edit.

Great to see things spinning up! I wanted to feel out the direction of everyone sheets before I really jumped into mine. I already had an idea for one before hand but seeing as how we have two females already I'm now hesitant to throw in a third.

Makani stated they are looking for a cast of 8-10 characters. I don't think a 3rd female should cause issue in the long run.

Just a heads up. Sheet is in progress, taking it a step at a time on this go around. I normally have a habit of grinding out a character overnight and shipping it out as soon as I've finished them. Not something I'm willing to do this go around. I'm really trying to exercise some writing muscles, and push out a character that we'll all be satisfied with.

As said above, I can't wait to see it! And I totally get the whole pumping out a character overnight. It doesn't always feel the same as something that you put more time and effort into.

Hey, sorry to say that I can't join :(

I've kinda overcommitted to some stuff (whoops) and I needed to cut some things. I'm really sorry! I wish you all the best of luck!

I'm gonna say yes, mainly cause we only have two full submissions and the GM has been gone for five days now. That and I'd enjoy RPing with you once again.

No worries, just one too many experiences with GMs that vanish.
