I Remain: Desolation (A Zombie apocalypse RP without the zombies!)

Zhao Meifeng

╚══════════════╝

"If your plan was to get on my nerves then mission fuckin' accomplished."

[ 25 | 5'11ft | Chinese | She/Her | 132 ]

[Headstrong]

APPEARANCE

"I wish I had more of that... feminine appeal, yes?"

Meifeng is quite intimidating at first. With her abnormal height - inherited from her mother - and her well-built frame, many people are put off from her until she opens her mouth and smiles widely. Giving people a reassuring aura that counteracts that aura of a cold soldier that people first detect off of her. When she's out and around friends, she comes off as quite energetic, and friendly. As stated before, Meifeng is quite tall. She's five-eleven, and that means she essentially towers over her fellow female peers and stands up there with the big boys (Which has been a constant source of teasing and ire). This gives people the idea that her own mother was an Amazon (Which isn't that far off). However, her strong, well-built, frame doesn't really give way in the way of curves. Her chest is 30A (One thing she wishes was bigger), and she feels like she has to shop in the kid's sections. Her hips and behind aren't very appealing, and she lacks the feminine appeal - up into one glance at her face.

Meifeng is obviously Asian, a pureblood Chinese woman. No, she isn't "yellow." Her skin - which is white with heavy golden overtones - makes this very obvious. Her Asianic facial features make this even more obvious. Despite the fact that she's directly from China, she's been in America so long that her accent is only faint. However, throughout the years, Meifeng has gotten herself plenty of marks. Before, these were only scars on her knuckles, and scars on her legs and arms from sports-related injuries. A few years ago, you could say that these were just marks that implied that she liked a little roughhousing.

She likes to go for a blend of comfort, and style. She always found athletic wear to be comfortable, so she likes to wear basketball shorts, with some T-shirt, and sneakers. However, Meifeng will wear jeans, jackets, and whatever other clothes she'd find appropriate. Though, the only kind of trouser she won't wear is a skirt or a dress. You won't catch her dead in either of those. Meifeng's outfits can be called tom-boyish because of this. This brings that tomboy assertion even further is the fact that she even wears boys boxers and a sports bra.

PSYCHOLOGY

"Live for something, friend. Last thing anyone wants is to die in a ditch looking up at the sky realizing they ain't do nothin'."

MAIN GOAL ⫻ Meifeng wants to find her mother and younger sister... who, deep down, she knows is more than likely dead. She knows that the world is over and any chances of a normal life is now a pipe dream. Meifeng simply wants to go out with a bang and make the apocalypse as enjoyable as possible.

PHILOSOPHY ⫻ Passion above all else, that is what Meifeng believes in. She thinks that people can feel stuff for a reason, yes and people shouldn't be afraid to show their emotions and believe in what they believe in. And whatever someone believes in; they should be ready to die for it at a moment's notice.

SECRETS ⫻ Meifeng keeps her innate depression, sorrows, and anything that betrays her passionate nature a secret. In all honestness, it's all a facade, one that anyone with half a brain can see through. She knows that the world's fucked and just really wants to have some last fun before it goes out.

SEXUALITY ⫻ Meifeng is bisexual and has no real preference towards one or the other. She has discovered her bisexuality years ago during a botched romantic moment with a friend. Meifeng is flirty, and because she's so confident in herself, she's willing to flirt with anyone that pips her interest.

FEARS ⫻ Meifeng fears the ugly truth; that her little sister and mother are dead. She knows that it's true, but she wants to avoid that ugly truth if possible. Meifeng also fears going out without a bang - because she knows everything is fucked, so she wants to be happy when she dies at the very least.

QUIRKS ⫻ Too many to count.

FLAWS ⫻ Meifeng has already given up on hope for humanity and thus she only desires to party. She's loud, headstrong, and impulsive.

BACKSTORY

"Lonliness is a bitch."

So to be brief, Meifeng was born in China and her mother, Lihua Zhao, was an Olympic athlete before she decided to move on from China after the death of her husband. They settled in the great city of Los Angeles and Lihua took up a nice office job that paid well... but given that she was a workaholic she spent more time at the job than at home. And what time she spent home; she was knocked out or drunk off her ass. The illustrious Lihua Zhao was definitely not quite illustrious behind closed doors. Which meant that Meifeng had to be independent; she did most of the household cooking and cleaning for herself. In addition to her studying and other extracurricular activities. However, Meifeng desired more; she wanted her mother's attention and friendship as her childhood was definitely a lonely one. Especially since her English was terrible going to school and she had a hard time grasping it. Which made her the target of much ridicule and bullies; until she met her future best friend, Jennifer Caspin. Jennifer was also an outcast and a savvy one at that; she helped Meifeng learn English and they formed an inseparable bond despite their personalities being polar opposites.

Along the way, Meifeng made other friends, such as Cindy Keagan, that she had all the way to graduating grade school. Though there was one hitch that Meifeng didn't expect; the birth of her little sister Lijuan Zhao. Lijuan was born from a drunken one night stand that Lihua had with a coworker, and Lihua held onto the child of course. Meifeng loved her little sister unconditionally. After school, Meifeng was unsure what she wanted to do with her life; her friend Cindy went army but that wasn't what she wanted. She wanted a cool action hero job... so she decided to aspire for a degree in Criminal Justice. So she ended up going to the University of South Florida and while there were a few hitches here and there (due to Meifeng's rampant partying) she was on her way to earning her degree.

However, when she went back home for Summer Break; that was when shit hit the fan. The mist rolled right as she was getting off the plane and that was when the massacre began. The monsters killed everyone in sight but Meifeng was one of the few that was fortunate enough to getaway. Armed with a baseball bat she went back to her home... only to find blood and not one sight of her mother or sister. Forced to flee her home, Meifeng made her way to a camp set up by the army where she ran into her distant friend Cindy Keagan, now a Staff Sergeant in the army.

She wondered what the hell they were going to do next... when the mist rolled in and the base was overrun. Cindy and Meifeng hauled ass in Cindy's car and so far they've been roaming the collapsed American society trying to find some type of safety.

SKILLS & TALENTS

"No, I don't know karate. Fuck off."

Cooking ⫻ One of the only skills that Meifeng got from her early life was that she knows how to prepare some food from scratch. She can skin a chicken and other animals and cook it up asap. Of course, Meifeng knows how to make a mean grilled cheese.

Shooting ⫻ During their time roaming the American-Wasteland, her friend Cindy kinda taught her the basics of shooting. Though, Meifeng still can't shoot the broadside of a barn and Cindy has a hard time using any weapon that's not an M4A1.

EQUIPMENT & GEAR

"Need tampons bad."

Remington Shotgun ⫻ A shotgun that Meifeng carries around on her that she picked off some dead guy. Unfortunately, while fighting the monsters she used the last of the ammo and now she just uses it for intimidation in the event they run into humans.

Aluminium Baseball Bat ⫻ Meifeng's weapon of choice; an old, dented, baseball bat. It's bloodied from breaking some skulls open but Meifeng never lets it leave her side.

Switch-Blade ⫻ Something that Meifeng almost never uses as a weapon but it's merely a switchblade. It's what she uses whenever she needs to cut stuff, but the blade is getting dull.

OTHER

"Hope for humanity is a stillborn dream."

Cindy G. Keagan

╚══════════════╝

"The military couldn't stop the fog, girl. If they can't, who can?"

[ 26 | 5'2ft | African-American & Indian | She/Her | 101lb ]

[Level-Headed]

APPEARANCE

"Look but don't touch."

A few years working with the army really allowed Cindy to really put her body in great shape. She still looks somewhat mousy behind the pair of glasses that she's always seen wearing. However, she carries herself like a diva and makes it her mission to appear her best. Wearing the best and stylish clothes (She can afford to buy with her army budget), making sure that every part of her body is very well maintained, and walking with grace. People get the feeling that she emanates vanity, but quite the opposite, really. She's actually a very open, and friendly, human being. Cindy simply has a cool and collected aura that doesn't let too much emotion slip. However, she can still show friendliness in the way of smiles, and a generally polite demeanor. Though, that can flip in the drop of a hat, if someone were to set her off.

As it's been stated before, Cindy's build has gone up a bit. She isn't super muscular, but she is very tight, and has a light layer of muscle from all the exercise she does. The last thing that Cindy wants to do is gain a million pounds, so that's why she does a lot of working out in her spare time. She jogs, lifts weights, and does all that jazz, which is why her layer of muscle is mostly around her leg area. Speaking of her legs, Cindy's legs are quite thick. You see, Cindy was fortunately blessed by puberty to have a distinct body shape. She has a pear-shaped body. Her upper body is fairly narrow, that aforementioned thin body, small bust (at 30d), and very narrow shoulders. However, her thighs, legs, and behind are very thick. Which are usually accentuated from her outfits? It's something that Cindy feels much pride in. All inherited from her father's side of the family, of course.

Speaking of Cindy's genealogy, one of Cindy's most notable features is how she quite racially ambiguous. She's mixed from two vastly different ethnicities. Cindy's father was a proud African-American man with roots from Kenya, Uganda, and Sierra Leone. Which gave him a variety of looks from several different African countries. Her mother, on the other hand, was Indian. Cindy, on the other hand, takes more from her father in terms of her looks - he says that he looks exactly like his mother! However, her awfully dark-brown skin tone, her afro-textured hair, and skull-shape are obviously African-American. Which makes it appear heavily like she's two different races... and nobody can really tell which one. Though, whenever Cindy opens her mouth, she has a very urban accent. Sprinkling her sentences with "yo," and "ya'll" and other dialogue that'd be inappropriate in a professional setting.

A very stylish woman, when she's not wearing OCPs. You can tell that the years she spent within Los Angeles has really given her a great fashion sense. She tends to wear very stylish clothes that are up to date on the latest urban trends. She'll wear just about anything long as it looks good, and makes her look fun. However, due to her time in Verthaven, her outfits tend to be very loose. Cindy will wear T-shirts, jeans, skirts, dresses, and whatnot. Though she tends to omit the skirts and dresses for jeans and has a shirt and a jacket of some sort another top of that. Other times, Cindy dresses a little bit like school-girl wearing dress shirts, and she's notable for wearing ties. Her style does not seem to be consistent as her wardrobe is seemingly endless. As for other kinds of clothing, Cindy is perfectly fine with wearing hats (She loves straw hats), jewelry (Along the line of necklaces, and bracelets), and things such as scarves.

PSYCHOLOGY

"Trust me and we'll get through this, I'm a professional."

MAIN GOAL ⫻ Cindy just wants to get the hell out of this hell. Whatever the price.

PHILOSOPHY ⫻ Cindy believes in peace and staying out of people's way. She definitely doesn't like to raise a fuss no matter what happens, and even as a Sergeant in the army that hasn't changed. She's laid back, cool-headed, and always takes things slowly. Cindy actually legitimately cares about the people around her, and only wants to see them succeed. Due to a rather liberal upbringing, in which she could see many different places, meet a variety of people, and experience many different things, Cindy is very open-minded, free-thinking, and whatnot. She rejects conservative ideals in favor of a more progressive way of thinking. Which is why Cindy won't discriminate based on race, gender, and whatnot.

SECRETS ⫻ Cindy is, deep down quite sullen, fatigued, and wracked with sorrow. Losing friends and family, and almost dying several times has really left its mark on Cindy's mental state. She has generally gotten over the deaths of her family, but sometimes it still comes back to haunt her. She tries to bury her trauma with a happy face, but nothing truly works. Other than a bottle of alcohol, of course.

SEXUALITY ⫻ Straight as an arrow.

FEARS ⫻ Cindy doesn't fear a whole lot anymore except faltering herself.

QUIRKS ⫻ N/A.

FLAWS ⫻ Cindy is unaware of this, but she has arrogant and cocky due to her time in the military. Because of her training she knows a lot about survival, but she

BACKSTORY

"Joining the army was the best decision of my life, but it might have been the only thing keeping me and Meifeng alive."

Now, Cindy was born as the result of an unwed couple getting a little too passionate with their love. Her mother was an Indian Immigrant named Asha Patel, who came to America with her family decades ago. She worked as a teacher for the local university and Jackson Keagan. A man who climbed out of the poverty that is the hoods of Los Angeles, and avoided the gang violence that is prevalent in the area. He followed his passions to the top and became a club owner - He had to take a second job, but he was otherwise happy. They met at a bar, after some particular flirting, they became a thing. Months later, and they became particularly intimate. After a few romances later, Cindy was conceived and introduced a conundrum for them. Asha's family didn't approve of their relation (And even less about Asha birthing a bastard), and they didn't exactly have enough money to support the child. They figured that they'd get married soon as possible, and try their best (Since neither of them wanted to give her up for adoption - nor did they want to abort her).

So, they got married soon as possible, and they moved into an apartment and they were happy. Cindy was born (Her parents got into a long back and worth as to what to name her, agreeing on Cindy), and did nothing but eat and shit as she grew bigger. There wasn't anything special about her upbringing, no dead parents, no dark and tragic past. As she grew up she developed social skills like no other and formed a huge social circle that involved lots of partying gossiping and rumors. However, Cindy's life was pretty uneventful - she met Meifeng. When she graduated high school; she decided against going to college since she wanted to leave that lifestyle behind. Instead, she wanted a different type of lifestyle - in the military of course. So she talked to her local recruiter, went to MEPS and eventually ended up in Fort Jackson for her basic training. Afterwards she went for her training as a 42A and eventually bounced around here and there.

Once she hit sergeant; she ended up becoming a recruiter (it was either that or a drill sergeant but recruiter paid more). Again she mostly did the same thing; bounced around from here to there lying to teenagers and everyone else she could to meet that quota. Then, the mist hit and shit hit the fan. Almost everyone was called up to fight the monsters, including Cindy. The army did a pretty good job holding them back at first but eventually, it turned out that there were more monsters than they had bullets. Many units were completely overrun by the beasts and soon the United States fell.

Cindy was in one of the last camps near Los Angeles and eventually, she ran into her best friend, Meifeng. When the mist rolled around she had no choice but to cut and run with Meifeng.

SKILLS & TALENTS

"Just because I had an office job doesn't mean I still can't fight."

Soldier-Girl ⫻ Cindy has been with the army since she was eighteen and has picked up a ton of skills. She's a leader, she can shoot pretty well (though she only knows how to use an M4A1 carbine to tell you the truth), knows medical skills, and much more.

People-Person ⫻ Cindy definitely learned how to do this before becoming a recruiter. She knows how to talk to people, tell them what they want to hear, among other things.

EQUIPMENT & GEAR

"Had to leave my body armor."

Assault-Pack ⫻ Cindy grabbed one before she hauled ass out of the base that was getting overrun. An Assault-Pack is basically a glorified backpack but it's what she's been using to keep all of her items in. Such as her clothes and what little feminine hygiene items she has left.

SIG Sauer M17 ⫻ A pistol that Cindy grabbed off a dead guy during the attacks, she has a few clips left and has been using it conservatively. However, she doesn't know to use a pistol all that well.

Tactical Knife ⫻ Just a simple knife that she uses when she needs to cut stuff. She keeps it at her side at all times in case she needs to stab somebody or cut herself free from a monster.

OTHER

"Lord knows I've been trying to keep the two of us alive."

---

---

Post-Apocalyptic | Cosmic-Horror | Character Driven

If you see the mist coming, just give up; you're already fucked.

OVERVIEW

---

Welcome to I Remain: Desolation, probably my third attempt to start my horror universe. Enough of that, the premise: a mysterious red fog appeared out of nowhere and a massive horde of monsters follow behind the fog. Nobody knows where it came from - and more importantly; nobody knows what the fuck it is. What they do know is that the fog singlehandedly toppled the world, as where ever the fog went a massive horde of monsters massacre whatever is unfortunate enough to be in their sight. It only took a few months for these creatures to destroy society with whatever left of humanity scrambling to find safety; anywhere they can. A group of survivors meets up in a cabin in the middle of nowhere and fate ends up bringing them together as they attempt to head up north to the mountains where its believed that the fog can't reach.

This was an RP idea I've had for a while; a zombie apocalypse RP without the zombies! For once I don't have any fancy pretentious themes, but I will say this will be a dark and bleak RP - with some cosmic horror!

DISCORD SERVER

RULES

---

1. OOC Rules

^{⋗ 1 . 1 |} Remember that everybody is here to have fun above all else. We may throw a few flowery jabs at each other, but remember it's all in good fun. The Golden rule is: don't be a dick.

^{⋗ 1 . 2 |} That said, remember that I have the full right to deny anyone access to the RP, and I am willing to remove anyone from the RP should they get too unruly. I hope it doesn't come to that, but I'm just putting that out there.

^{⋗ 1 . 3 |} I enforce a policy of not informing people of every time they should post (unless their character is in the middle of interactions). If you go inactive without a peep, I'm not going to babysit you. It's a player's responsibility to keep up with the RP.

^{⋗ 1 . 4 |} Please be respectful towards all other players.

^{⋗ 1 . 5 |} Please do not post a "wip" sheet. I find it very irritating when someone posts an incomplete character sheet. If you want me to read over what you have so far, just PM it to me. If you need a place to work on it just private message the sheet to yourself (or write it on one of many platforms).

^{⋗ 1 . 6 |} This RP will strictly be "first come, first serve." Meaning I will not reserve any roles/etc, and they will go to whoever finishes their character sheet first. If there's a conflict over it, I will decide the outcome.

^{⋗ 1 . 7 |} Character applications will go into the OOC (where we can work things out) until they are accepted. In other words, the character tab is for accepted characters only. Also, do not "reserve" a spot in the Character Tab unless you were given permission to by me.

^{⋗ 1 . 8 |} Try to keep the OOC active as possible. Even chit-chatting about random games is perfectly okay.

2. IC Rules

^{⋗ 2 . 1 |} No Powergaming, God-Modding, Metagaming, etc, etc... You know, the "don't"s of Roleplaying. You know the dealio.

^{⋗ 2 . 2 |} Let me say now; the story will be pretty slow-paced at times. I have a job and college, so I won't be able to post constantly. If a slower RP is good for you, then go for it.

^{⋗ 2 . 3 |} All I ask for is one post a week. If it's been a week since your last post, your character will be placed into the inactive section until they are written off (mostly by death). Once a character is inactive, however, they are officially an NPC and can be used freely by the GMs, or the players. Unless you give notice of your absence, then your character is off the table.

^{⋗ 2 . 4 |} I am not a stickler for post length. I'd rather have a meaningful paragraph, over an essay full of filler. But, I request one paragraph.

^{⋗ 2 . 5 |} This RP, at times, will get very dark. I plan for it to be a very mature, and down-to-earth Roleplay. There will be death, drinking, drugs, and tickle fingers.

^{⋗ 2 . 6 |} Character death is a real possibility. By submitting a character, you understand that they have to take responsibility for their actions. They will not be bailed out by me and possibly get injured or die. I won't jeopardize the story for one character. They can also be killed by other characters. I won't go out of my way to kill off any character - that I like - but I may injure them for the sake of the story.

^{⋗ 2 . 7 |} Romance/Sex/Whatever is allowed in the RP. "Fade to red" is so beaten into your heads by now that there's no point in even repeating it.

^{⋗ 2 . 8 |} To keep things a bit more organized, please say where your post is taking place at the start of your post.

^{⋗ 2 . 9 |} If you're also expecting me to hold your hand every step of the way, then you're going to be disappointed. This is going to be an RP that rewards taking initiative, and starting plotlines of your own. I'll provide a storyline, but I'm not going to be railroading everyone.

3. Character Creation Rules

^{⋗ 3 . 1 |} I expect some moderate detail when writing your character sheet. Remember, this RP is more grounded in realism, and I want each character to feel like a person. Try to give them a believable past, goals, personality, etc.

^{⋗ 3 . 2 |} If your goal is to basically make the strongest/best character, and try to "win" the roleplay, let me stop you here and say you won't get far. This is a story, not a place for you to wank your OP self-insert. Nothing says "I'm a bad writer" to me than giving your character the strongest abilities (along with an asston of skills). I will not hesitate to ask you to change whatever I dislike about your character sheet.

^{⋗ 3 . 3 |} If your character is a sociopath/psychopath, complete badass, perfect character, edgelord, then they're likely not going to get accepted.

^{⋗ 3 . 4 |} You can create a character of any ethnicity, gender, sexuality, background, etc, within the bounds of realism of course. You can definitely get creative here.

^{⋗ 3 . 5 |} I'm not placing a hard character limit, but I'm going to recommend you have no more than three characters. Afterward, you better bring something new to the table.

^{⋗ 3 . 6 |} I suggest writing a description of your character's appearance to get everyone in that writing mood. If you must, you can use a picture. Just no anime. The pictures have to be of real people, or realistic art (but, let's shy away from A/B List Celebrities).

^{⋗ 3 . 7 |} When creating a character, try to be diverse. Look at the character sheets and try to fulfill a role that no one has. No one wants a million street fighters, or nice girls. You can be pretty creative within the bounds of the lore.

^{⋗ 3 . 8 |} Please refrain from tacking skills onto characters. Try to make everything feel natural to your character.
