@Frenzy forgot to @ you, sorry!

The Walking Dead: Welcome to Portland

@alexfangtalon No worries! This’ll be set shortly after the start of the outbreak.

The Walking Dead: Welcome to Portland

@alexfangtalon Multiple PCs are on a case by case basis, so pitch away and I’ll let you know. Connected NPCs are totally fine.

@MissCapnCrunch Looks good.

@Sola
Looks good, you can post it in the character tab if you’d like.

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.

The Walking Dead: Welcome to Portland

It was jeans and t-shirt weather today, though the grey clouds threatened to rain down upon the living and the dead alike. There weren't many of either over by the mall, not at this early hour at least; a few corpses, a few abandoned cars, but nothing moving.

Although Lloyd Center Mall had been ransacked many times over, it was still well stocked. Inevitably, a few of... them were always wandering around. The dead seemed to have a memory sometimes: heading out for their weekly excursions to the mall, the grocery store, wherever. No one person could stop for more than a few things before they had to run if they wanted to survive.

Welcome one and all! If you would like to join in, you can post here or PM me with the character concept you have in mind.

You're welcome to include a picture with your character sheet.

I don't have a list of rules. I will write one if things do come up, but I'm hoping I won't have to.

FAQs

What happens if I disappear?

I’ll try to contact you a couple times and NPC your character in the meantime. After that, your character will be NPCed out- if you come back at a later time, we can figure out how to reintroduce them.

Can I have multiple PCs?

Multiple PCs will be decided on a case by case basis. I’m more inclined to accept if the characters have a connection in some way, but if you are compelling enough (I may ask questions!) I’ll allow it.

Can I have NPCs connected to my character?

For sure! You’re welcome to write for them if you’d like, too.

How soon after the outbreak is this set?

Shortly after the beginning of the outbreak.

How much do I need to know about the Walking Dead?

Absolutely nothing- you can learn along with your character.

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.

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.
