Okay, Libby. I'll put you with the asylum.
Svenn said
well, my other character, (The wife) that I plan on writing as a minor character will be traveling to the asylum with Charles and taking refuge there.
That is why I listed your character for the Asylum, Svenn. I went through the pages today to see where people had indicated they wanted, and that's all I could find for you. I can easily switch it around. It's no big.
So, I'm getting things sorted out. We've got enough approvals to start, however, we'd have a few more if I could get updates/feedback/changes from a couple outstanding ones. I've got two or three for the boat for sure, and one for the asylum.
I'm still debating if I want these places to be starting locations, or set you all up with having to find them or brought to them. Zephy is an exception It's her boat. For the boat group, she's likely to be the rope and knot that ties that group together, as to how they all came to be there. I will be updating the front page periodically throughout the day as well with information. I am also putting together a Doc for this RP, maybe a sheet, so there may be links up to that data as well.
Fiddler, I'll be happy to let you update your sheet whenever you're ready. Just let me know when you're ready for submission.
So far, I think this is shaping up to have potential, and I would like to thank everybody for their patience and diligent, hard work on their CS's for the ones it has stretched some. I'll be honest, this is the first RP I've run here on the Guild. I was a bit intimidated and nervous about it. Still am a little, but now as we're getting geared up and ready to start, I feel more and more excited and energized. I think this is going to be really good.
I'd also like to let you guys know.. feel free to drive the story on your own. Try not to step on each others toes. I promise to not be a control freak. Use good judgement, think, and some common sense to the mix. I'm just a referee and a game engine. I'm probably going to toss a character or two in the mix. I had intended to from the beginning, but as you guys keep adding to the cast, I find that my original choices may not be needed, but that leaves more options. Everything you guys do adds to the RP and the story so far. I hope it stays that way. I really want this to be a success. I see too many RP's die before they ever really get started. I hope you all are as revved up as I am.

Libby, you might want to go ahead and give Ellie a paintball mask to protect her eyes and reduce the chance of anything getting in the poor girl's mouth.
Was just looking at it, actually Verdant. He's pretty well put together. I think we need to talk though.

My character is done. I've completed those last two spaces and i've made some other minor mods too. All in all he's done. Tell me if he's alright.
First, like the picture of Scott Atkins you used for the main pic. Second, awesome work on the equipment and weapons. I highly approve. I would say he's ready to roll as is. I would like to know how he's stayed alive in Dade County with all the walking dead though. I've got a few dots I can connect, but knowing what you see is better.
Also, I kind of have an interest in something else on your sheet. Do you mind PMing me so we can discuss it?

oo quick few questions what type of zombie outspread is it? Is it like the last of us where zombies can basically rot away into fungus, the usual walking dead type of zombies, like if you swallow/get zombie blood in you you are one or you only become one if you are bitten and/or scratched?
Sorry for not answering this sooner. It kind of got lost in all the shuffle, hun.
This is... The Walking Dead. This isn't The Last of Us, or Left 4 Dead, or Killing Floor. As established by the AMC series, everyone is already infected. They're all carriers for the infection. Typical zombie model applies in that bites are infectious, scratches too. Quick action such as quick amputation can save a character's life, if done properly. If done wrong, amputation can be just as fatal. Regular infections can be a real issue without modern antiseptics and modern antibiotics. I would say that being internally exposed to zombie gore is very dangerous. Protective gear is recommended, for sure. But, since zombie blood is pretty much coagulated gel, it clumps in thick globs doesn't splatter as much as live blood. It won't travel as far either.
Keep your mouth shut in close combat, and it would be a good idea to turn away if swinging something messy or shooting something that creates lots of backsplash. Somebody who's careful though can work their way through a group in just a few moments without much risk of getting direct blood or internal exposure.
I thought I made it clear that I was good with it with this:

Ah, gear list is much better. Thank you. And some good choices too.
Put yourself in your character's head, I fully encourage it. Perfection won't be the order of the day either. I'm glad you get the premise though. :D
