The Walking Dead: Last Life

[B]Warning: If you are easily offended by swearing or you are easily disturbed in general, this thread is not for you.[/B]

[I]Back when I was sane, brain eaters were absent from everyone's awareness and most of us took our normal lives for granted. Those dead shits ruined a lot of things and they took over so easily. Ya see, people are so use to being safe that they forget that tragic things can happen unexpectedly. When people started to change, no one knew how to react and some mindless idiots even turned on each other. My dad guessed it was some sort of chemical attack from a third world country, but the government couldn't figure out who to blame. People accused government testing gone wrong for the spreading disease, because the president had no answer. Everyone thought that the government was trying to hide their mistake, until we found out that it was an international epidemic. States were quarantined and people were held against their will inside their own homes. That's when something very fucked up happened. Word got around that government officials and even the president evacuated the country, because the virus was getting out of hand. Ever since then, the military has become selfish, dicks who abuse their authority I heard. Most don't even know how many of us are left, because even those who die without physical infection come back with a hunger for living flesh. The bastard terrorists have attacked often thinking America was to blame. Our own kind are killing each other out of confusion and assumption and [B]their[/B] kind just keep growing. Feeding. My brother Josef showed us a way out of this shitty place after our foster parents and sister died a few days ago....It still hasn't hit me yet that they are really gone. I refuse to believe they are dead, but I can still feel an intense pain eating at my core that makes it impossible to fool myself even how hard I try. Our brother-n-law, Nathan, is along with us too. I use to hate his guts, but now I don't, because I've done something that could make him want to kill me if he knew. Something I can't even forgive myself for. I've tried to kill my sorry piece of shit self for awhile now, but I can't bring myself to finish. I should try one last time, because we're all just going to die anyway. They'll find out what I did in time. For now, my brothers and I found a place near the mountains here in Colorado where we can survive for the time being. It's nothin special, but it sure beats living in the hell hole that my sister use to call home.[/I]

Lead Characters -

Name: [B]Joan Spinner[/B]
Age: seventeen
Personality: The hot headed tomboy of the group and the main protagonist of Last Life. You'll discover when you talk to her, that she must subconsciously love to swear like a sailor. Surviving in the zombie apocalypse as a teen has really changed her world around and has opened her mind to all of the bizarre possibilities. She doesn't understand her brother's constant courtesy, and she tells him that he's too nice on a regular basis. Killing zombies is her favorite thing to do, because she despises them so much and there's only one thing that even has a chance of scaring her, but she keeps it to her self. She thinks logically on a regular basis and she rarely shows her emotions except in private. On the inside, she is very self critical and she even has destructive thoughts toward herself.

Background: Joan Denise Spinner was adopted into a foster family when she was four. Before that she lived in an orphanage for two years after her biological mother abandoned her near a park when she was only two years old. She and her foster siblings grew up together and learned to see eachother as true brothers and sisters. Her foster dad was never around, because he was off being Governor of Georiga and her mom was always busy on the computer with her job and hardly spent time with her. Her foster parents took care of her like they should, but they were too blind to realize that they weren't spending enough personal time with her. This lead to Joan being isolated in school and making friends wasn't easy. She preferred to keep to herself and listen to her favorite death metal bands on her i-pod. In high school, Joan finally began to open up, but she didn't care to be apart of the popular crowd. She got caught up in the wrong crowd and learned that she was quite impressive with grafitti art. She became interested in drawing tatoo designs and she gained a lot of recognition and popularity from other kids in school that way. This made her want to become a tatoo artist and she decided that she would get her sleeves done when she turned eighteen. She never got around to getting her first tatoo, because the world turned for the worst. For many weeks, her and her foster family were trapped inside their sisters house after they went down to Colorado to visit. Joan's brother-n-law, Nathan, proposed to Josef's sister Lana and Joan, Josef, and his parent came down to congratulate and spend time with them. Unfortunately for Nathan and Lana, there would not be a wedding. The rude behavior of the military pissed off Joan and she hated to feel contained inside the house for as long as they had to stay there. Nothing was the same and it was so strange not having power like they were living in the passed. She kept herself occupied by journaling her thoughts on paper and keeping them stashed in a shoe box under the guest bed. Writing was her escape from all of the crazy shit that was now reality. She couldn't wrap her mind around the fact that the horror portrayed in films could actually exist in real life and she was still shocked that it was happening now.
Weapon of choice: Anything Joan can get her hands on.
Hometown: Atlanta, Ga

Name: [B]Josef Chance[/B]
Age: twenty five
Personality: A southern gentleman who remains optimistic in the zombie apocalypse. He encourages the last of his family to keep on moving and reminds them that there is always a way to survive in 90% of situations. When it comes to figuring what to do or where to go next, Josef always thinks up an answer quickly and decisively. One could consider him the leader of the trio, but he sees everyone as a potential leader and believes that joint leadership is the smartest way to survive. Because he is so nice and considerate, often times he is too trusting towards others. This could very much lead to the wrong choices and it's in his nature to remind himself of all his past regrets. The constant reminders of his past regrets also lead him to be very self doubtful at times. He has a strong will tho, and his usual optimistic self dominates all of his faults, because he chooses to think positively at all times.

Background: Josef Riley Chance is the biological son of Joan's foster parents, James and Abigail. His father, James, was the well known Governor of Georgia and his mother, Abigail, was a stay at home mom and self employed graphic designer. He and his sister Lana are quite close, tho, they only see eachother occasionally now ever since she moved to Colorado to pursue her career in photography. Before society collapsed, Josef was a highly popular football player at the university of Georgia. His girlfriend was a track star and he had a lot of friends and an impressive social status. He wanted badly to become a professional football player for the Atlanta falcons, but his dream ended when the outbreak started. Things were even worse when he discovered that his track star girlfriend cheated on him with some dude on the same track team. After that, things went to hell and everyone's rights seem to have been taken away. He and his parents, along with his adopted sisters and brother-n-law, were quarrantined inside their sister's house in Denver, Colorado. Things were looking very badly, and his father even tried to leave the house in a furious rage, but he was shot at. No one even came to help when a richoted bullet pierced him in the neck. It didn't kill him, but over the course of a few days the wound got infected badly and it eventually took his life. This was before anyone even knew that even the non infected would come back as decomposing demons. Josef found that out the hard way when he found his parents eating on eachother in bed one morning. He locked them in the room and that's when he decided that the rest of his family had to leave some how.Weapon of choice: His high school, metal baseball bat.
Hometown: Atlanta, Ga

Name: [B]Nathan Hulridge[/B]
Age: twenty three
Personality: The "Big Apple Bad Boy". Nathan has a hard time adjusting to the country life ever since the Walkers took over. The city life runs through his veins and some would say he acts reckless at the worst times possible. Regardless of his recklessness, Nathan is quite clever and he uses this to his advantage when surviving encounters with flesh eaters. Before he embraced his rebellious side, he was actually at one time the Prom king at his high school before he dropped out. That's where his charming side comes to play and works quite well with the ladies whenever he cares to show it. He can be overly confident at times with the choices he makes which can get him into trouble, but sometimes things work out and he likes to brag everytime. This can make him appear immature a lot, but his sense of humor can be refreshing when comical relief is appreciated.
