We are Re-Launching our Zombie RP​
​
The story will begin once we have at least 5 characters.

Here are the new improvised rules and guidelines:

Guidelines:

How to talk: When it begins you will want to talk about yourself and what you say using a format similar to: "Fuck that is huge", I said in a gasp. Out of character chat is defined by (( out of character )).

Posts: Keep your entries brief, no longer than a paragraph to keep the storyline going. Anything longer than a paragraph will be removed. Try to interact with those around you. You need to get to know them etc etc. Do not play an introvert. Think of your posts as conversation rather than inner monologues.

24 Hour time limit: You will have 24 hours to get in all the interaction you want until the story is progressed forward by the the Captain. (Tr1age)

Time commitment: Each time the captain speaks the timer is set to 24 hours before the story progresses. If no one speaks in that time the Captain will progress the story. If you cannot dedicate a moment a day to post, please remove yourself from the game. It really isn't that much of a commitment we are asking for, but it is one that makes it better for everyone else and allows for cool story lines to develop.

Interaction: DO NOT KILL OR WRITE STORY ACTIONS FOR OTHER PEOPLE IN THE AREA. You can of course reference them and interact but how they respond is up to them.

The Captain: This player will decide what your actions consequences are. So choose wisely. Think of it like D&D but if you cast magic missile into the darkness you will probably be swarmed by a billion zombies and die. If you die you can sign up on the sign up page again under a new name and begin in the next chapter.


Loot: Everyone gets a starter equipment list to choose from:


  • Choose ONE
    • A rifle with 1 clip containing 5 rounds (range 50 yards)
    • A pistol with 1 clip containing 15 rounds (range 3 yards)
  • Choose ONE
    • A Pipe
    • A Crowbar
    • A Bat
  • Choose TWO
    • Food Ration
    • Water Ration
    • Med Kit
You all start with:
  • A backpack that can hold 5 items.
Drops:
As you progress and kill, you will find loot, items, and will be able to craft more munitions, food rations, and the like. So make sure you pick your battles properly or you will run out. Shelter is offered at the end of each chapter to let you rest your wounds and heal up.
Health:
Everyone starts out with 10 health. A hit is - 1 health. A Bite and you are dead within 3 turns. So watch your back! Eating restored 4 health, drinking restores 3, and a med kit restores 10.

Your character: I understand some people like to have introverted characters. If this were a film that would be OK, but since this is text based, unless you want to do a ton of posts where you say "I thought to myself" and have very little impact on story or the people around you, I suggest you talk to the characters around you and get to know them. Other than that have whatever story you want for them, but understand this is more about fighting for your life and completing the objective of each chapter that will be defined at the beginning of each chapter. You also cannot be an ex military black ops alpha team leader. You must be a regular guy/girl, with regular guy/girl skill-sets.


Chapters: Each Zombie RP session will be broken up into chapters to let others join in later if they are so inclined and also give a sense of progression and accomplishment to those who have finished. As well bonuses, such as weapons, food, housing will be provided to those who make further into the chapters.

  • Objectives: These are going to be defined each chapter. A clear objective will be set forth in the opening prologue of each chapter. Be sure to do what you can with those around you do complete these objectives.
  • Zombies: These are the walking kind. They do not run, there are not umbrella cooporation mutant zombies, there is just ZOMBIES, and of course other humans. How you interact with them will either help or hurt you in future chapters.
Start Date:Chapter 1 will kickoff on June 1st or when everyone has signed up that wants to prior. We may just have rolling invites through the 1st so the current members can continue on their journey sooner. And your signup will then trigger an event.

Good VS Evil: You cannot be a bad guy. You are working together to complete objectives. If there is enough interest I may organize others to be in bandit groups, but until then you all have a common goal, SURVIVE.

So what are you waiting for? SIGN UP TODAY!

It was really the only time we got the spend time together since he travelled alot.

My father died a few years ago but i still treasure those Saturdays and continue the tradition.

Can I make a suggestion to everyone who just HAPPENS TO BE AN ARMY VET.. this is going to make things VERY boring. :)

Remember this scenario starts as the outbreak is happening.

If everyone is skilled military vets.... Can some of you make adjustments? Normal people, with no idea we are about to have a zombie apocalypse, would be a good adjustment. :)
 
Looks like we have a good amount of people here. I think we can begin the story!

Let me get everything in order and I will start our first part soon!
