Zombie Encounters

Introduction For New People

The worst case scenario has happened. Due to a mishap of epic proportions, a virus has been loosed. Not like the flu... no... much worse. This virus eats away at your brain. It turns you, for lack of a better word, into zombies. There are rumors that some are immune, and that they are the cure, but to find out you need to be bitten, since that is the only way it can be transfered. The problem with that form of testing is that no one knows what the signs of becoming immune are. Normally if your bitten, someone around you will perform a mercy killing, not willing to take the chance of you turning. Along with the rumors of immune individuals, are rumors of journals that the scientists left behind explaining in detail about the virus and the signs of being immune versus the signs of turning into one of the undead.

It's been three months now. You are one of the last surviving, uninfected people. You have been wandering around, in search of shelter, food, water, medical supplies, anything that can help you live to see another day. This is your calling, to join in the ranks of the refugees and write the history of the new world...

If you wish to join this blog/roleplay, you would need to meet the requirements for your character(s) and post them as a comment to this post and this post only. Also, YOU ARE NOT YOUR CHARACTER. DO NOT DESCRIBE YOURSELF. You may base your character off yourself, but no exact copies. Remember that this is a roleplay and not reality: these people should not be real.

Name: (ex. Riley Wolfe. DO NOT USE YOUR OWN NAME)
Age: (self-explanatory)
Height: (self-explanatory)
Hair color: (blonde, brown, red, black, white, grey, colored, bald)
Eye color: (blue, brown, green, grey, contacts, colored contacts, glasses)

The limit is three characters per person. (special circumstances are allowed if you ask one of the mods) When your character is listed among the Refugees, it means you have passed inspection and you can use them in the blog.

P.S. - Each character is unique. They have different strengths and weaknesses, but their has been issues in this subject. We need to keep this fair. That means no super powers, no mutations, no god or spirit things that will give you an edge on the other players. Each character has its own special thing, yes, but that thing should not be so great it puts them above the other characters. Make your characters real and relatable. The only thing that should be supernatural about this blog is the zombies. Thank You.

    1. couple things but one I can fix. the first, is that the link to the picture is supposed to be the HTML code, not the email code. This is because when I put the character with the others, which code I use decides if you can see the picture or the link. Also, I hope you don't mind if I rewrite it just a tad, so it's like the other characters. I've done this with the other character, its just so the headings are gone and the info flows like a story. Third, what's a "bug out kit" and what kind of rifle? What caliber?

      I still am waiting on Max's opinion of this, but besides the little stuff, it's great! And don't worry about the picture link. I can fix that. I just wanted to let you know for any future characters.

    2. Also, I forgot to tell you, You should make a bedroom for the house. It's on the "Group Home" page. for that pic, you don't need to worry about codes, since it goes straight on a page and not on one of the widgits. you just need the link to the picture, you can use google.

Carries a bag of fantasy novels and College grade books. And a doll with his dead sisters name on the bottom of the foot. Is a nerd at heart, but is physically built from years of bullying.
    Personality: Very nice, but mumbles to himself if left alone for to long. If heard its mathematical equations and scientific theories. Is extremely loyal, but has a dark side. Is a pacifist at heart and hears everybody out. Jack was a college student that had graduated high school early for he had a very high intellect. Before the events that destroyed the planet he was studying the same virus that has infected numerous billions. On the day the virus escaped the lab, he was trying to get home only to get a terrifying call. It was his 14 yr old sister screaming that mom and dad were trying to get into her room and wouldn't stop. He told her he would be there to help, but was to late. He decided to put his family out of there misery with a sword that his grandfather had given him from WW2, and grabbed up his sister doll as a memento for what she had told him a few days earlier. "Never change, no matter what people do to you, you will always see the light they cannot find." On his way through the destruction he grabbed up a few throwing knives that his father and grandfather had taught him to use. And because he knew he was physically built he picked up a few gauntlets from the museum and using what little he knew from welding with his uncle, he reinforced the knuckles with sharp studs for a bigger impact. With all this he sets out to find survivors hoping that his knowledge of the virus can help concoct a cure for the future of the human race.
