As the guy who's in control of said guards I can say with confidence that as long as he's shooting at vultures they won't give two shits and would more than likely appreciate the help.

Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws
The only shadow that the Desert knows:—
"I am great OZYMANDIAS," saith the stone,
"The King of Kings; this mighty City shows
"The wonders of my hand." The City's gone,
Nought but the Leg remaining to disclose
The site of this forgotten Babylon.

We wonder, and some Hunter may express
Wonder like ours, when thro' the wilderness
Where London stood, holding the Wolf in chace,
He meets some fragment huge, and stops to guess
What powerful but unrecorded race
Once dwelt in that annihilated place.

Transoxthraxia wrote:
Name: Chloë Tang-Rothschild.
Nation Name: Transoxthraxia.
Birthplace: Reno, Nevada.
Ethnicity: Her father was a Chinese-American second-generation immigrant, and her mother was a long-time Anglo-American resident in the area, hailing from a Dixie family fleeing the South during Reconstruction.
Age: 29.
Pic/Description: Here.

Occupation: Now? A wanderer. A raider. A scavenger. Prior to that she was a nurse, and a fairly successful one, too. Ironically, she's a TD-13, a carrier, and ended up infecting all those that she tried to treat.

Immunity: TD-13 Immunity, a carrier.

(OPTIONAL)
Personality: Prior to the apocalypse, Chloë was a quiet and reserved person who was a hard worker and dedicated nurse. Intensely introverted even before things started falling apart, she had few friends and even fewer people that she could truly trust. As the world started falling apart around her, her introverted nature became even more pronounced as most experiences that she had with other survivors were extremely poor. By now, her introverted nature has essentially evolved into extreme paranoia and sociopathy. Her intense mistrust of strangers has led her to lead an entirely lone life. When forced to be around others, she's quiet, reserved, and generally silent in conversations.
Skills: She had extensive medical training before the apocalypse, and uses that in her day-to-day survival. She has also survived a large number of stressful and life-endangering situations. As such, she has become relatively cool-headed in dangerous situations, and has become adept at reading people's emotions and true intentions. While her firearms skills are lackluster, she can work herself into frenzies that allow her to, despite her small stature, beat even large men to death with her baseball bat.
Likes: What she calls "Psycho", which is in reality Bath Salts or MDPV, something that she has grown to use in the past few months. She also loved, at least, pre-apocalypse, practicing and studying medicine.
Dislikes: People in general. She's become an intense loner and mistrusts everyone.
Fears: People, The beasts that now inhabit the former United States, and she generally has a fear of spiders, scorpions, and other creepy-crawlies.

Bio:

RP Examples:


Just a heads up, this is 27 years after the apocalypse. Your character would have been two when the whole thing started, so you will have to change some of the information.
My travels take me many places, from the scorching sands to the cold, dark vacuum of space. But I always return to my friends and family at The Pub.

Ooh, my apologies.

I tried to read the OP last night at about 3 AM after an embarrassing amount of alcohol had been put in my system, and then I sort of built on that assumption today. I'll revamp my character.
Where must we go, we who wander this wasteland, in search for our better selves?
In Egypt's sandy silence, all alone,
Stands a gigantic Leg, which far off throws

That person had already been jailed. I think you're good.

(Sidenote: It took me about 10 times to spell "jailed" correctly. Autocorrect has failed me)

If PLW says his guys won't shoot you, then they won't shoot you. Roll with it and make a post instead of waiting for someone else to tell you where you need to go.

I just have a question, how is your nation name pronounced? I saw it as similar to the pronunciation of Sarajevo but I'm not sure.

I just pronounce it S-air-joe, though that is probably a terrible pronunciation.

Flarbinia wrote:(Snippity)


Also about your last post,

Flarbinia wrote:"Screw this shit! If their military leadership is too incompetent to show up for an important meeting, then they can go suck Vulture cock for all I care!"


There was never a planned meeting, your guys just wandered into the jailhouse uninvited and just stood there for however long he was there. With the armory on fire its highly unlikely that anyone would be bothering to go back there when their preparing for immediate assault. Speaking of which....

Flarbinia wrote:However, as he approached the gate, he noticed that an entire portion of wall was empty.


No. Just.. no. With an attack going on within the city and everyone on high alert, no one would just abandon the walls of the settlement. It be counterproductive to both their safety and survival, not to mention going against common sense.

Flarbinia wrote:"The guards are probably on some wild goose chase."


Again the guards that would be stationed in town would be doing "the wild goose chase" not the ones stationed on the wall.

Flarbinia wrote:How the fuck did this community survive with leadership this incompetent?" Cerberus thought as he looked around to see how many guards had been assigned to the pointless snipe hunt.


Says the guy who stood unannounced in a jailhouse waiting for the ruler of the town to show up, then gets pissy about it.

Flarbinia wrote:Cerberus thought as he looked around to see how many guards had been assigned to the pointless snipe hunt. A sudden explosion interrupted him before he could get past 30 (...)


Again, the guards in town, be they mercenaries, town watch, or zealots would be handling that, so there's no way in hell would 30 people be abandoning their posts when theirs already people taking care of it.

Flarbinia wrote:What he saw surprised him. Chunks of flesh were flying all over the place as more of the infected wandered into the mine field. "I have seen this kind of thing enough times to know that when Salida runs out of landmines, the Vultures will tear through it like bratwurst in a kennel full of rabid Rottweilers." He thought as he saw more explosions coming from the mind field.


I genuinely thank you for acknowledging the landmines around much of Salida, people seem to keep forgetting that its there. As for the infected wandering in, that's fine but the guards would be shooting at them. Those who were assigned to the wall would be shooting at those.

Have a good day,

That seems to be a theme here.

Posted for Sera and several other people. Except for maybe Watts, don't think any of the others are gonna play any role in the coming disaster that are the Vultures.
