For the record, it’s been years since I’ve “run” a group RP. I’m more interested in a collaborative storytelling effort than leading people through an adventure; my party, so I call the shots if there’s a dispute, but otherwise I’ll run with whatever.

I was watching season 8 of the Walking Dead on Netflix and I was struck by the complete shift in values that some of the characters had gone through since the start of the series, at times even feeling like they had lost some part of their humanity. I’m interested in that conflict between morals and survival, between outside forces and inner voices.

I’m open to apocalyptic ideas other than zombies (although I love them and have no problem with sticking to them), but I’m aiming to stay somewhat realistic. Hollywood movie magic would be fair game for fights and the like, though.

If the game actually manages to go long enough to really get anywhere, I would also be open to the idea that whatever is plaguing our characters was in fact limited to a relatively small area, leaving them back in the real world with these experiences no one else has had.

I have a really good character for this :) and would love to join in this adventure.
Is any knowledge of the walking dead required or is it just heavily inspired?

Nope, no knowledge required. Doesn’t even need to be based off the Walking Dead, or we can mash Ideas together from different franchises.

I'm not familiar with Fallout, but I would be down for that instead of zombies if there's interest.

I'm interested! I've been back into post-apocalyptic stuff, especially things like Fallout and Fist of the North Star.

Sorry for the wait, I'm coming up with a pitch that's a little more definitive, but I've been working back to back shifts. I'll get something by tomorrow night.

So below is my mash up of Walking Dead/Fallout (which I’ve never played and am not familiar with at all). I would be willing to do more than one game if anyone wants to do straight up Walking Dead instead.

Let me know if you’re still interested and I’ll get to work!

The bombs hit. No one knows who fired first. There was a call to cease hostilities, which all parties agreed to... but not Vault Tec. The aftermath of the detonations was the perfect time for them to release their experimental weapons.

Their bio weapons were designed to kill, and kill they did. Problem was... the victims didn’t stay dead. Vault Tec offered the use of their bunkers, to keep people safe from the threat- only once their doors were sealed shut did those who chose “salvation” discover what awaited them. Some societies were normal enough. Others... ended up far too horrific for words.

And it turns out that the Vaults aren’t as secure from their virus as they thought.

Our story starts not in a Vault, but in a run of the mill small town. Well, it was one, before the dead took over. Maybe you’ve been holed up and need supplies; maybe you escaped the nearby Vault; maybe you’re just here to take advantage of whatever situation you find yourself in.

@nightmare medx

I'm still super interested; you could even change the name from vault tec to something unique of your own, and it'd still send the point across :)

I will say I'm not entirely on board with the mixing of Fallout and Walking Dead but I'd be willing to try.

Because there wasn't a lot of interest for the Fallout aspect, I am leaving it out entirely right now, although further down the line we can take a look at shaking things up.

Click here for the role play. No knowledge of the Walking Dead franchise is necessary.
