[OOC] 🧚🏻‍♀️ The Walking Dead - Year 6 Part 1

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Sounds good, if you have any questions feel free to ask here or drop me a pm. I suggest taking a look at the other Cs's to get an idea of what skill and such get accepted - pretty basic stuff. Might want to double check on a color code of your choosing before you edit the cs to find out if it is already in use somewhere in the RP (since we have so many currently lol)

[Therealslayer]

@Lady Amalthea alright, I have an idea of what I want. I had a firefighter character for another zombie RP I really liked but I didn’t get the chance to play it that much everyone kind of simultaneously lost interest from what I remember. I don’t know if you have many melee/tank types, that’s what I would go for.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Okay, though this is with Walkers, it is a rather realistic RP, as much as we can possibility make it. So, just a warning a tank type will most likely die and die fast in this RP. Granted everyone pretty much dies fast here, lol. (We've lost 7 PC's in the last month) The characters are all like in TWD series, pretty average joes' that are just dealing with extraordinary circumstances. Firefighter is more than welcome, it's actually one typical job I don't remember anyone having. (Or if they did, they weren't around long enough to be memorable, LOL)

[Therealslayer]

@Lady Amalthea by tank type I meant strong and capable with melee type of weapons, not rush in and die like a dork :P. Can’t wait to get started on this.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Well shit, how am I supposed to know that? I never know what I'm gonna get around this place. For all I know this is YOU in the middle of the Zombie Apocalypse.

:P LOL But yeah they are all pretty much Melee at this point - or at least those that have been long standing members of the Newnan Community that just fell. (2-4 years within the walls getting training and education) - so yes, melee always welcome but it isn't a must. But hey, we all need someone who knows a firemans carry!

[Therealslayer]

@Lady Amalthea ahaha well 2 years ago it wouldn’t have beeen so far from the truth :P so can my character just come in and stumble on whatever community or would it be far fetched at this point that she hasn’t heard of any of them?

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Actually she will come in randomly. I roll to see where Lady Luck drops her off. The community though wouldn't be heard of, there isn't a network in this RP of multiple ones really. Granted, that is all mute really until the Cs is done and such. We'll cross that bridge when we get there and she is approved for entry. All the details you need to get things rolling are in the rules (Zeroth post) , original OOC post and the CS coding.

[Therealslayer]

There we go! Working 8-5 and training for a triathlon is making this fit tightly in my schedule, but it'll work. I'm really looking forward to playing this character.

Psychology

Caring * Impulsive * Charismatic * Egotistical

Sexuality: Bisexual
Relationship Status: Single
Personality: Sam is the kind of person that could make anyone feel at home with a smile that draws you in and a charming personality that gets you hooked from the first sentence. She's an extrovert, through and through, and it shows how easily she welcomes anyone with open arms and an even bigger heart. Everyone's family and nothing is more important to her than those around her. Sometimes though she'll retreat to have some peace and quiet, but she'll be back before you notice with a fury of good-natured jokes.

Sam is not easily angered or agitated, she is usually cool and calm in most situations. She's mastered how to defuse most tense situations with a joke or a swift change of subject that almost goes by unnoticed. In order to get on Sam's bad side, someone would really have to work at it, but she does have a short fuse when it comes to negativity and people who are quick to give up. If there is something she cannot stand its laziness, there is no excuse not to do anything when you can at least try.

This extroverted exterior seems perfect and shiny, but on the inside, Sam is a bit of a mess. She thinks too much, way too much, about pretty much everything. She sees improvement everywhere and would like to fix everyone, sometimes calling those mistakes out-loud has gotten her caught into a few heated arguments with close friends and members of her family. But perhaps her biggest flaw is believing everything can be fixed and that everyone can change.

Habits: When Sam finds herself with nothing to do she'll clean or find something to fix or tamper with. She also always analyses why people do or say certain things to get a better idea of how they think.
Hobbies: Training (Crossfit, weightlifting) and cooking are two of Sam's favorite ways to unwind.
Fears:

• Lossing a loved one
• Vulnerability; being perceived as weak by others and herself, both mentally and physically
• Being taken hostage

Likes:

• Animals
• Crossfit
• Honesty
• BBQ Chips
• Leading
• Jokes/Laughing
• Strawberry Smoothies
• Star Wars
• Winning arm wrestling matches
• Metal, the kind you trash to.

Dislikes:

• Running
• Smoking
• Laziness
• Bacon
• People who chew their food loudly
• Waking up before the sun rises
• Being hungry
• Clutter

History

Your First Walker Encounter:
The first time Sam encountered a walker was on her birthday. She was working that day and lucky for her the fire station's birthday ritual was to make the person being celebrated run 3 laps around the building. On her first lap, she spotted a homeless man by the dumpster, on her second she swore he was eating a rat, on her third her fears were confirmed when he turned his bloody screech towards her. She stood frozen for what seemed like a long time but in reality it was just a few seconds. She was able to dodge him and run back into the station, where cheers erupted. Her colleagues heartily sang happy birthday to her while she attempted to catch her breath and tell them what she had seen behind the station. The party was abruptly interrupted by the crazed man and all hell broke loose. Sam ran for the nearest fire axe and closed her eyes as she plunged it deep into the man's skull.

History Before Outbreak:
In school, Sam excelled in math and science so her parents pushed the idea that she should become a doctor. She didn't hate the idea, but she didn't love it either, yet her parents kept fueling the fire. They were happy, so she was happy. Sam was very smart, but she also naturally athletic and drawn to running track because she was good at it, not because she enjoyed it, but found her passion for Olympic lifting soon after. She competed all throughout high school and even college, but when her coach made it clear that without taking anabolic steroids she wouldn't go further into this sport she quit immediately. Feeling empty at the loss, Sam entered a Crossfit gym and fell in love with lifting all over again.

Sam's four years of hard work as a medical student paid off as she received a full scholarship and promise of a residency at a local hospital. Everything was going great, once again she dominated, but the unexpected loss of her mother and her grandmother back to back was like a sucker punch to the gut. She fell into a deep depression and even dropped out of her residency when there were a few months left until completion. She realized that pursuing a job where losing people hourly was commonplace wasn't for her.

Her father, a military man, would have loved for her to follow in his footsteps. Yet, year-long tours overseas was too much of a commitment for Sam at the time. She decided to compromise and passed both the written and physical exam for the police academy admittance, but in the end, she still felt that her talents would be wasted in driving around in a vehicle all day. Sam began feeling more hopeless than ever, without a prosperous future ahead of her, yet there wasn't anything she could see herself doing for the rest of her life. Her life turned around when her good friends shoved a firefighter recruitment paper into her hands. It was the perfect job, part-time too so she could continue coaching at her Crossfit gym on the side.

She completed her fire science degree in a year and a half and also received her EMT certification after 300 of courses and practice. It was the perfect job, at least, until the outbreak forced her out of the normalcy of her life she had established and driven her out of the city she had grown in.

History Since Outbreak:
Sam remained at the station with the rest of her colleagues until they exhausted their food and water supplies and were thus forced to leave the safe brick walls and venture out into this brand new world. Sam was one of the first to volunteer to scavenge for food and report back with news on how the rest of the city was doing.

At first, Sam was completely distraught to see the city in shambles; fires everywhere, abandoned cars littered the streets and made moving around this concrete jungle much harder with 50 pounds on your back and a horde of crazed people hot on your tail. Though Sam grew quickly accustomed to it, she was used to the exertion, welcomed it even. She scavenged for the station for a few months, but the thoughts of her father's whereabouts in all this chaos was eating at her. She needed to know if he was safe, so one day she dropped off her biggest payload of scavenged goods, grabbed her axe and left in search of her father.

Sam found him after a few weeks of traveling alone, he had been leading another group of survivors out of the city. She wasn't surprised to see him offer protection to a group of people in times like this, Sam had always loved his bravery and hoped she was as half as brave as he was. Even though they worked hard to set rules for the group, it got smaller and smaller. They decided to go against her father's advice and leave to scavenge and explore alone. None of them ever made it back and Sam and her father both knew they would never be back.

She and her father survived alone for almost 2 years, he taught her how to properly build shelters as they often camped in lower populated areas free of those...walkers. One night, one of her father's 'recon' mission, as he liked to call them, didn't go according to plan and they were separated. Hordes of walkers between them and no way to go around. They decided to part ways for now, but they both promised to find each other again. At least that's what Sam think he was saying with hand signals. She's now all alone, with her own demons, and she soon noticed that her demonds were the loudest.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer K, right now I am in the middle of working on a skill set for another Rp - so I will review this tomorrow and let ya know. ^_^ (Though by first look I can see there is one thing missing, make sure to take a close look at the rules Yoda >.>)

[Therealslayer]

Oups, I think what you were referring to is fixed.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Alright, think she is okay minus 2 things.

Her color - I think it is really close to like two other characters - we have a lot of blue apparently in the IC I just checked. We don't have but like one shade of orange and it is a darker one, pinks are pretty clear, gray I don't think is taken. Take a gander at the last page in IC to get an idea of what is being used. I can change it out for you if it is an issue.

Also, you are still missing the first thing I was referencing. Sadly I cannot say what it is, would defeat the purpose. Take another look at the general rules.

[Therealslayer]

@Lady Amalthea fixed :) sorry about that. I’ll change the colour when I get home, I’ll take a pale orange.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Yup, once you get the color changed you are good to go. Just tag me when it is so I can give final approval then. ^^

[Therealslayer]

@Lady Amalthea there we go :) if the colour is not light enough I’ll check for another brownish one.

[Lady Absinthia]

@Therealslayer Good to go, you don't need to worry about a relation sheet since you haven't met anyone yet. Move her over to the CS tab. I will be posting between Sunday and Tuesday - depending how when others post and how far I am willing to push my counters. i will tag you when I do because it will have her intro and information on where she is, what she can see, and so forth. I will be pming you shortly with the chat room invite.

[Therealslayer]

Alright, sounds good :)

[Lady Absinthia]

Announcement was made in chat - noting it here as well. Make sure to use the new Headers with the added skill slot from here on out. Explanation of use is in the Announcement chat - below is an example from After Miranda on using.
