Silver Fox — Roleplayer Guild

Regarding the democracy idea, absolutely open to everyone. I'm not sure what New Guild rules are regarding exactly how many Co-GMs you can name, but at minimum you get one GM and one Co-GM named on the thread. That could be any of us, and we can simply explain to players that they have an equal say in development as we do.

I agree with Fox; veterans should approve characters before posting goes ahead.

I doubt Tony would have survived the farm ambush if even Ash and Dog were injured. So I might severely wound a leg and leave him mobility-compromised. 

As for writing stuff up, I did a quick overview of everything we've discussed so far, if y'all are okay with that. All very rough.

Within one week, major cities on the East Coast became riddled with the virus.

It took two weeks for the virus to spread to smaller cities, three weeks for towns and smaller settlements. Some folks fortified their homes and fought off the dead for as long as they could. Some kept moving.

After four weeks, bands of survivors were few, and the dead began to hunt for their food.

The virus manifests itself in a variety of ways, but the common symptom is life – or rather a half-life – after death. Contracting the virus leads to sickness, which then leads to death. Soon after the virus kills its victims, they are reanimated. These reanimated corpses experience a manic desire to infect, kill and/or consume the living.

Average Undead
The most common of the infected are slow and travel in numbers, with the odd exception. Although not inherently intelligent, they are capable of learning from their experiences, and have thus began to co-operate and use hunting tactics.

Runners
A less ubiquitous manifestation of the virus, colloquially called “Runners”, they are fast travellers and can maintain their speed for prolonged periods of time. They also show symptoms of mania greater than that of the average victims.

Spitters
A rare manifestation of the virus. “Spitters” possess the ability to launch a mouthful of infected fluid at a target. This fluid is contagious, should it come into contact with the blood, eyes, mouth or open wounds of a living target.

Screamers
As of yet, this appears to be the rarest of the virus’ manifestations. Infected are able to release a high-pitched shriek, the sound of which attracts more common infected.

Hey Guilders. Infected is a reboot/sequel to a longstanding roleplay created by Ayesha/Rarity. Permission has been granted from the original GM, who may return in the future.

We’re looking for dedicated players with an interest in character development. This will be a largely character-driven roleplay; their actions and choices will move the plot forward. We encourage you to come up with plot points yourselves, but please discuss them in the OOC and gain the approval of your fellow players before moving ahead.

Rules:

1. High Casual to Low Advanced. Each post should be more than two paragraphs long and literate.

2. Be realistic to the setting. Follow the rules of the world. For example, your character is not going to possess any magical ability or survive the virus.

3. Post regularly. A minimum of once a week is preferred.

4. Refrain from speed-posting if it’s going to leave someone behind.

5. If you require a hiatus or would like to leave the roleplay, please inform us. 

6. All players have as much a say in the development of the roleplay as the GMs do.

7. No godmodding, Mary/Gary Sues, out-of-character hate, etc.

@teapotshark

Oh I imagined them getting hurt in the fuel run. Ambush is possible too though.

Does make me wonder how Cat would react though. Since he kinda finds Tony mildly interesting. Interesting enough not to kill him at least.

And wow that looks amazing :O you're awesome Tea :D
