They -are- flashbacks. It's all we're supposed to post until the IC actually gets into motion. However, posting one flashback is encouraged.
Oh, gotcha.

Oh, gotcha.
I approve. But I am merely a lowly Co-GM. So you must wait for Az. XD
Awesome stuff!
So when are we thinking of actually starting this RP? Not being impatient, i'm genuinely curious for a timeline. If I sound impatient it really isn't intended.
In general Az doesn't set timelines. But the estimate is some time within the next thirty days. Give or take ten.
Wait, I'm confused. There are like 10 IC posts. I thought we did start? Am I missing something?
@Azseth I will be writing my sample for this guy.
Name: Logan Dubois

Age: 32
Occupation: Catholic Priest (Exorcist)
Family life: Uh, Priest with a missing/deceased brother and parents
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Weight: 207 lbs
Picture:
Blood type: O+
Immune: No

One change of clothes, making two work cassocks. (Black suit that priests wear with the collar.) One hiking backpack loaded with food and water supplies.

Bio:
Born the first of two brothers in central Louisiana in the city of Alexandria, Logan grew up going to catholic private schools. His parents divorced when he was very young due to his father’s alcoholism. His early life was filled with court trials and drunken rampages by his father.
From elementary to high school he was an athlete. He played football his freshmen and sophomore years in high school and switched to basketball for his junior and senior years. Despite this he was something of a nerd, opting to stay home to read comic books rather than go to parties and he never had any desire to experiment with alcohol or drugs due to his early childhood. Around his sophomore year in high school his dad had completely kicked his addiction to alcohol. He had become quite a holy man, and while Logan and his brother still didn’t completely trust him they visited him pretty often. Eventually his father became an actual mentor in his life.
By his senior year in high school Logan had become a pretty popular person despite his nerdy tendencies. He became a star basketball player (on a team of rich white kids with no skills, but you know, whatever) and was a part of the campus ministry team. He was also quite the lady’s man, though he always had his eye on one girl who only ever saw him as a friend. (Hence the priesthood.)
After high school he attended the University of Louisiana at Lafayette for two years majoring in computer science with a minor in world history. Eventually he decided to go into seminary (priest school) and dropped out of ULL.
When he entered the seminary he specialized in exorcisms, a subject that always fascinated him. In the six years it took him to go through seminary life, he ended up with a doctorate in demonology and theology with a masters in history and his associate’s degree in computer science. At 26 years old he became a priest in a small parish in northern Louisiana where he was the official exorcist in the diocese. (diocese=county sized area of churches) At 28 he became the chaplain of the local catholic high school, during this time his commitment to the priesthood was challenged when the girl he loved (mentioned above) got married to one of his high school friends.
Logan was giving mass during the Rising, the congregation began taking the body and blood of their neighbors. (Ha! Humorous) Logan and a few other people in the church were able to escape. A large number of people eventually made a sort of colony in the highschool. He began writing a journal to chronicle the events of this the apocalypse, something that he still does today.
The colony lasted for about four months before it was overrun by a group of bandits in the area. The battle lasted for a few hours, and the RAs that were drawn to the gunfire only made it worse. It was in this battle that Logan killed his first man. Something he was not proud of but eventually deemed necessary. Most of the survivors ran in separate directions haphazardly and Logan had no idea how many may have actually survived. He escaped with a woman in her early-twenties named Stacey Schroder (who was quite hostile to the fact that he was a priest) and a student named Kevin Fairbanks. They have been travelling together ever since. Logan and Stacey have warmed up to each other a bit since then, though neither will budge from their ends of the spectrum. He has not seen his younger brother or parents since the outbreak.
Personality:
Logan is quite a likeable man, people seem to think he is funny and charming. They also seem to think of him as a leader. He has a pretty strict moral code and has yet to rob another survivor. (Though scavenging is an obvious must.) He also tries his hardest to solve whatever conflicts come up with other survivors peacefully, and even when violence arises has a tendency to let his attacker live. He has killed three human beings, all in self-defense and in the heat of a fight. He is also prone to wisecracks and random bouts of facts that he finds interesting. (Usually pertaining to history, Star Wars, or the obvious greatest superhero ever. Perhaps even religion depending on the person, as in not Stacey.) He is also quite fearless due to his past as an exorcist (boy could he tell some stories) and is a very capable public speaker.

*Patpat* It's all good man, I feel you. But Zombies are still plenty dangerous. And there are boundaries to the immunity.
Az knows the specifics better than I do, of course, but, if an immune person dies from a bite, they -are- still turned. They just don't turn while alive.
Also, a bite can still get infected. YOu might not turn into a Zed, but a bite is a bite, that shit's germ-tacular. Odds are, it's gonna get infected, and it's gonna be -bad-. So it could just kill you with pathogens. Not to mention, the zombies can still just tear you to pieces and eat you alive. They like to travel in packs. Except the R4's. Scary solo bastards. So there's still plenty of danger! We just won't turn to zombies immediately. And of course people can still make characters -not- immune. I'll have one or two of those myself, even. Though, not yet. Will is my baby for now.
Haha, yeah I understand that. I don't like the "get bit and turn 3 minutes later" thing either. I was just worried that the "immunity: yes" thing could turn into a "my character can't be killed by zombies lolz" fest. Even with the other dangers, anyways that's all.
On another topic, almost done with character numero uno.
Vandy, I can answer that one for you- We're actually all supposed to be immune, excepting a few rarities, because at this point in the zombie-land-times, most of the people still alive -are- the ones who were immune, or in really large groups.
Five to eight percent of humanity is still a lot of people, by zombie apocalypse standards. So we're more or less just the people that -can- survive getting bitten. Most of the characters probably have been at some point.
Eh, still not sure about that. I just don't like "immunity" to be a part of a zombie apocalypse. Makes it seem like there's no danger in, well, zombies. Maybe if it was "immune to everything except for getting bit" I'd feel better. Like not getting sick by the airborne virus.
Just expressing concerns and ideas, not trying to start any revolts here
Just throwing this out there but, literally every accepted character is immune. Not sure how I feel about that, isn't it just supposed to be 5-8% chance of immunity? Right now we are at 100% and counting. Seems unrealistic that our group would have ten immune characters. Just throwing in my two cents, anyways I'm working on my characters.

Second tab. Red text. BOLDED. Read it. Please.
Az
Gotcha, I get off work at 3:00 tomorrow so expect everything sometime after that. Father Jason Dubois is going to be my main, pretty excited with how this is coming along. May make a CDC character, not sure yet.
@Azseth
Quick question about seasons, I assume that we play for while and some major plot thing happens. After that season is over and we take a break and then come back later with our surviving characters? At least that's how I understood it, but maybe I read it wrong.
Anyways if anyone wants to join with me, the characters I'm thinking about are above. They'll all be walkers. PM if interested.

Alright, everything is read. I'll get to work tomorrow, it is getting late.
I'll throw my interest in, thinking of making a Catholic priest from Louisiana with a shotgun. He'll be the moral "don't kill people" guy. Add in a nerdy comic book kid and a bad ass atheist chick and I think I've got my little süb group planned out. More to come, I've gotta go read the rest of the interest check (ra discriptions)
