There is a fungus among us. Three dozen individuals have been infected, some are being monitored, and a few have been captured by various organizations. Those that know of its existence are clandestine in nature, be it national & paramilitary, exploitive networks, and general well-to-do scientific community. The public is unawares, but for how long? I wish to explore a secret pandemic and its fallout, through characters of many slices of life, and of course those more primarily involved in such an event. WWZ and group-brawl stories such as Condemned/Hunger Games/Battle Royale are initial inspiration for this, let's see what we can do in and behind scenes for such a story. Take a peek at the character sheet and see if it strikes your fancy!


Setting:


Modern Earth(Hosptials, diners, intersections, military bases, it's all open if agreed upon)

What we Know:


Omphalotus Violentus is a parasitic fungus that makes paranoid and aggressive behaviors, pain tolerance rise, and scar tissue faintly glow. Very low-level infection rates to stop mobs from happening, and also the fungal aspect would make it benign to the character traits save for those mentioned but also make similarly infected seek each other out/battle. Three dozen are infected, and those that have survived so far show alarming signs of combat prioress, they seem to harbor more infectious species of said fungus. The original infection seems to have evolved from transcontinental flights.






RULES
1. Typical Guild Rules
2. Npcs are welcome as are their stories. 18+ love & gore can be taken to PM'S
3. New ideas or arguments should be discussed in the OOC
4. Have fun! This is one of my first GM's so a Co would be nice, otherwise I'm just looking for a good fun time.
Bump 🎶
Who's up for a brawl?
@Aurkanthis What a fast friendship, let's see where it leads

I've planned JJ's power-up scenario, and my night owl tunes🎶 should go with it nicely. We've got a lot of players in this musical RP.
JJ


"Aksel.” spoke the fellow delinquent, and offered a full introduction no less. JJ took it with gusto. He extended his arm and grabbed the forearm for a real shake. Not often did his bravado receive good marks but he was to take it none the less.”Though, a bit harder for me in a place like this,” With a big sloppy grin he pulled off the soon to be finished cig and remarked back, "So what brings you abouts my man?, I got sticky fingers" he tittered out with a flourish of fingers and he disposed of the vice. "Some not so much." he also mentioned gesturing to the lass Ax was trying to comfort, nodding in solidarity. "We got alot going on here though, so let's see where it leads." he spoke while gesturing to the group at large, "Til the man comes back around" his grin soured.

Frankly JJ was more worried about authority and its bindings than anything else so far. Painting and jousting verbally was just his cream on the top. Seeing a fellow musical affineado helped a lot, which probably led him to such an introduction. He'd get to know the others once he found his niche he thought. He somewhat shrugged like an afterthought, "I'm just here doing time like the rest of us." You didn't need to be much of an empath to recognize the defeat in his gestures.
@Aurkanthis Hey, do you mind bolding Aksel's text when he speaks or changing the color? It's hard to read.


Seconded, dark blue is hard on these eyes
@Aurkanthis Trivia always welcome

Singing n painting, all for the low price of misdemeanors.

JJ


Wertham Community Centre was awash with little verses and lyrics here and there of rasta and of rebellion. It tickled JJ's childish side. His focus was on clean broad strokes to apply bland but pleasant white tones over the gnarled abused benches. He slowed his movements as the paint wore thin, re-applying with a quick wrist to the bucket of paint least it dry and fray his work. Simple matters such as this is what he aught to focus on, perhaps it would do him some good. Maybe he was getting some secondhand of the wacky tobbacy. He inhaled his own puffer thanks to Prince before taking a small break to remark on the work others were doing. He caught some newer faces too. This was getting to be an event in JJ's restless mind.

"A little painting here, some yardwork over there, fish the bay, heck we have it all don't we.", He spoke in a soft chuckle near the end. His sarcasm hopefully landed with some still others he saw looked lost in the sauce. A sliver of french caught his ears as he turned to see some of the ladies getting to work too. This deck of cards was playing itself out interestingly. It gave JJ a large smirk.

A lanky newer face(Aksel) had managed to sneak into the group even. He felt like water to JJ, finding the crevasses to fill in. Moldable even. The youth's rambunctious side was stirring again so he struck a line toward the fellow, something in his accent sounding far off and cold. "Cosmetic paint hides alot I guess. Hard to hide from people though." He said as he walked up toward the tall guy, empty can lugging in tow. The way he approached from the back to refill his can made it seem slick but JJ was keen on introducing himself more. A receptive voice might be the ticket to a friendship if it played out right."Name's JJ by the way, what's yours?" spoke the joyrider, who instead of offering a hand was busy restocking his endeavor.

Open to collab, JJ Shall smoke n paint with focus till then
