Description:

A virus has torn through the world like wildfire, wiping out almost the entire human race in the span of only a couple years.

The disease is highly contagious and may manifest itself in any combination of the following symptoms, which typically show up between one and two weeks of exposure:
Yellowing of the eyes
Constricted pupils
Nausea/vomiting, resulting in weight loss
Irritability
Lack of coordination
Joint stiffness
Paranoia
Sudden mood swings

As the disease progresses, the symptoms worsen. Victims also develop predatory aggression-- eventually, they will start to attack other people. In a sense, they are very much like zombies.

People with weaker immune systems are more likely to be infected. The typical age for a survivor is somewhere between 15 and 40 years old, with the majority of them being in their late teens and early twenties. However, it's still very possible to get sick anyway if you fall in this age range.
There is no cure and the virus is virtually impossible to fight off...but it's still possible. However, such cases are extremely rare and the survivor is left with lasting effects-- most common are stiffness and mood disorders.


Positions:

Leader- Finlay Welch

Second in Command (main job is to make sure everything is okay with people and act as a caretaker for younger members)- Verla

Doctor (they will be older than most others)- 1.

Hunters/Scavengers (multiple spots)- 1. 2. 3.

Guards (multiple spots)- Sebastian Griffiths, Sherry Phoenix, 3.

Survivors (multiple spots)- Liliath 2. 3.

And rules are:

1) You control your own character(s), and nobody else's

2) Try to keep your posts as paragraphs. 5-11 sentences is just fine. If you want to do more, that's also good!

3) Be active! Too many good RP's have died because of inactive players. We'd like to see at least a post per day (preferably more, when possible). If you're inactive for a couple days, we'll have to set your character aside in order to advance the plot. Of course, we do understand that life gets in the way and if you say that you'll be gone for some time, we'll work something out.

4) Romance is allowed, just keep it PG-13. If it goes any farther than that, then take it to PM.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or Spiteful since they will also be another person in charge.

Does anyone want to rp with me please

You have to create your own topic, not look for someone to rp with on someone else's rp.

Oh ok thanks for letting me know

If i may ask a question would my newest character Akuma shinoji be able to be used in this if not is it okay if i use Chiaran instead?

Would this character be OK as guard or survivor?

Could I join with Liliath as a survivor?

Would you mind being a guard?

I'll talk it over with the other GM since your character is a bit younger isn't she?

You can pick which ever you'd like. Just let me know which role you would like.

Then i will use Akuma as a hunter!

Spiteful says that it is alright if you use Liliath. I'll add her in as a survivor.

Is this still open? Read a zombie book recently (mild, not gory; I’m not into that sort) and was wondering if one of my characters could fit in. You can choose; my choice might clash with your purpose.

Yes this is still open, Spiteful and I will check out your characters soon and one of us will PM our thoughts.

Guard seems fine to me - also suits the characters life before the Apocalypse. BTW how much time has passed since the zombie attacks became known to the public?

I'll ask.

It is a year.

OK thank you

Wouldn't mind joining as a guard if you're still in need of one

Absolutely, I'll add you into the OOC and IC and put you down as a guard on this forum.
