I've already had to scrap like 10 really long posts so far, don't feel bad.

Fine. Whatever.

I'm keeping that nightmare and the shorter hair. I'm just transposing it somewhere else.

It's my wall of text, pa. I'll do it.

This is what I get, I suppose, for sleeping for four hours just because I can.

It depends on the model of Stryker, are you talking about the mobile gun system, or the transport version?

Guys, can we all agree not to stack shit to the moon in making things tough on our characters? This is starting to feel like one of those sequences in action movies where the explosions, fire, lava, tornado, or giant crack in the earth is following the protagonist's exact movements.

The apocalypse has many more people to fuck around with. A quiet few hours of IC is nothing much to give ourselves.

Agreed. I'm coming up with a contrived way for us to escape and get some goddamned sleep.

Nobody do anything crazy once I post, please? Let's just escape and deal with the conspiracy tomorrow. We can all pile into an abandoned semi and sleep, or something.

Or we could just get that thing to stop shooting us and ignore the zombies pounding on the warehouse door? :p

We've ran into countless hordes, several Reavers, and now an angry APC (with another side helping of horde). I say after the firestorm we've thrown ourselves into calms down we enjoy a couple days/weeks/whatever of not being action movie heroes. Not that I mind the constant struggle facing our characters but we don't want to run out of steam on the first night.

I honestly just created a convenient solution for the problem.

See, we leave the warehouse, then we bugger out of Chicago for Wisconsin or something.

Then, tomorrow morning (IC), I can reuse the post where Sarah goes all max payne and shit.

Also for those of you who want to get out of Chicago don't worry the perfect opportunity will present itself.

As well so I'm not biased I need someone to RP my character for a little bit; any volunteers.?

That's alright, all you have to do is control him during the combat scenes I'll take care of him during plot and developemnt scense.

Besides I'm not that good.

I think we should let the OP and Co-OP be the only ones to just throw things into the IC. So as to avoid confusion and possible clusterfucking of events (including potential retconning which messes up an RP more than anything else).

oh and D is going to be mad pissed on who hurt Sam. In the silent, impassive, two seconds from decapitating you mad pissed.

Seconded.

We need a co-op board or something. Whoever has been the best in the RP so far, that kinda thing.

I like that, having a couple Co-OP's so that someone with authority is most likely online. Terrans has already been promoted but I'd like another if at all possible. Any names want to be pushed forward?

OP Note: The United Federation of Terrans has been made a Co-OP of the RP. He will be handling plot things soon.

Congratulations!

Also, since if Hugh kills Foley his own chance of survival plummets, I'm going to submit this:

Name: Lauren Clark
Nation Name: Wallenburg
Birthplace: Oakland, California
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Age: 25
Pic/Description: Female, 5'10", 125 lbs, medium-length dark blond hair, green eyes, fit but not quite athletic
Occupation: Software Manager
Reason for being in Chicago: Flight to fiance's home rerouted through Chicago and kept down during quarantine.
Immunity: Full
Personality: Caring and generous but suspicious of others, innovative, strategic and analytic, stoic when necessary
Skills: Creative in design, good shot
Likes: Efficiency and speed, cooperation, leadership roles
Dislikes: Irrationality, competition, powerlessness, zombies
Fears: Spiders and needles

Bio: Born to a poor family in Oakland, Lauren fought her way up the social ladder by demonstrating a willingness to learn and exceptional skill in analysis and problem solving. She quickly became fascinated in computer programming, and took a part time job during high school to buy a computer and pursue her dreams. She graduated as a valedictorian and received a generous scholarship at Stanford University, where she met her fiance Hugh Garmany and finalized her career aspirations in computer programming and project management. She moved with Hugh to New York City where the two worked closely together in upgrading city infrastructure.

RP Examples: You know me
I want to improve.
