((Disclaimer: My history is a bit shit now so things won't be too accurate.))
Black Death has been the most devastating pandemic in history; it alone managed to kill of 30-60% of Europe's population. The Black Death was a death sentence, an unbiased one at that claimed lives of the young, old and those who began adult life. No cure existed and no explanation was given either. Those with the plague were locked in their houses until they died or if they were lucky a Plague Doctor could heal them. Of course plague doctors could catch the plague or go missing as they flee the country. Plague Doctors did not have medical training as one has been noted to of been a fruit salesmen beforehand.
With a bit of history out of the way it is time for the RP idea. This is a part of my Death March-Blood Stained Streets idea which is half based on history.
The streets of London in the year 1350. The plague had claimed countless lives and the people of London and Europe had begun to panic. People began to blame lepers, Jews, firars, pilgrims, foreginers, etc for the cause of the Black Death. In the sick part of London which is under guard by plague doctors and guards to keep the sick away from the safe zone of London. The rich and the poor here are forced together to keep society healthy as possible. This RP is about a plague victim who is on the run, they could kill millions more people if they are not stopped. It is up to a plague doctor or two to chase them down and return to their homes, if failing that killing them so they can be burnt.
Parings:
Plague DoctorxVictim
Plague DoctorxPlague Doctor
VictimxVictim
The victim/plague doctor(s) will come cross other escapees as they try to get away/find the target in question. The city of London will be rather grey and littered with death so the target already having the disease could hide among the uncollected bodies. The sick part of the city will be rather empty as most will be trapped in houses, barns and other places, those that managed to get out will be seen time to time. The victim plans on leaving the country via the London docks but the plague doctor(s) plan on preventing the already devastating disease to spread further. Escape or controlled, how will you go about this RP?
Whatever happens there is no happy ending, death is awaiting those with the Black Death.
